.Autobot base. 4:30 pm.

Bee talking is underlined like this.

"Little nerds actually having a friend over!"
Miko rasped, caught mg Raf to grumble.
"O-oh no he's not, not at the base he isn't!"
Ratchet grumbled at them from behind his computer.
"No not here hatchet! At his house!"
Just then jack and Arcee pulled into the silo.
"Jack! Me and Raf are hanging out with the new couple today, wanna join?"
Jack suddenly froze.
"Ahsila?"
He asked. Setting his helmet on the couch as Arcee transformed up.
"Yeah, her and that hot guy, Silsias"
Ratched grumbled.
"I'm not sure that's such a good idea"
Jack huffed. Walking up the stares and standing next to Miko.
"Oh chill out!"
Raf turned of his laptop- bee tilted his head in suprise.
"Yeah, Silsias seems pretty cool,"
Jack cleared his throat and came up to Raf.
"The kids creepy, never shows his eyes."
"But its so hot!"
Miko squeeked. Swooning over the new boy.
"I wonder what kind of music he likes, maybe he'll go to a slash monkey consert with me! Oh wouldn't that be so cool! We could go on a romantic-"
Jack- as well as the others blocked out her swooning, continuing on there work.
"Silsias"
Ratchet grumbled.
"Reminds me of M.E.C.H"

Time seemed to slow down dramatically much to the over excited Miko. But soon the time came, at six thirty, all three humans. Accompanied by Bulkhead Zoomed out of the base. What if they found out that jack had told Ahsila a while back about the Autobot's? He was sure she wouldn't bring it up, but it kept nagging at the back of his mind. He became slightly nervous as they drove on closer to Rafs house. Well at least his parents were out, Raf said something about there club night. Jack couldn't keep calm. He kept playing with his hair, fiddling with the seatbelt.

Somewhere on the way to Rafs house.

Ahsila was curled up in Soundwaves lap in the back seat of knockout. They had told Megatron about where they would be, and as always he just grumbled and agreed. The closer they were to finding the Autobot base, the better.
The car ride there was silent, each thinking about their own things. But Soundwave was afraid- why? He was never usually afraid, he just... Didn't want to slip up, show his eyes or say the wrong thing. He was also worried for the fact that knockout had to be there the whole night. Anything could go wrong, he was certain that one of the Autobot's would be there to watch over them incase something did happen to happen. And the thought made Soundwave more afraid. He wouldn't be able to fight back, not while he's so far away from his mech form, he had stupidly left unprotected back on the Nemisis. Deep in recharge while he was out.

Soon, to soon it felt to Soundwave that the house was in sights. Knockout stopped a ways from the house to let them out, they decided they would walk. Without a word Soundwave picked Ahsila up bridal style and stepped from knockout. Heading towards the road. She squirmed in his hold which only made him throw her over his shoulder and hold her like a captive. She hit his back playfully, and Soundwave groaned with fake pain and dropped her onto the pavement of the side walk. It was quite dark for only seven. The street lamps were on. But the sun was still out- hardly getting ready to warm the other half of the world.
Soundwave visibly tensed when the house came to view, as he expected. The yellow scout known as Bumblebee was parked across the road from his house. And the green wrecker he knew as bulkhead was parked outside the garage. Ahsila felt him tense and she got up, brushe herself off and wrapped her arms around him, kissing his cheek a few times, he could feel the heat of a blush form on his cheeks. It was so new to him, blushing was. She moved the hair from his eyes to reveal two beautiful purple eyes looking down into hers. She kissed his nose and smiled.
"Just relax, Sil. They'll know something up if your all tense and whatnot"
Her voice was soft and sweet. So he nodded. Kissing her lips swiftly before moving her off to the side of him. She felt her hold onto his arm, her one hand moving down slightly to his palm. Instinctively he coiled his fingers around her. An they walked hand in hand up to Rafs door.

He was vaguely aware of the Asian girl- Miko peeking through the upstairs window. And before he could look up to confirm what he was seeing. The curtains closed. He reached his hand up to knock on the door. But before he could the door opened and Raf stood in front of them, a woof of air. It smelt spicy rich and full of flavor, Raf laughed nervously at the face Soundwave made upon smelling the spegetti that he was making- a face of pure delight. Well only his mouth an nose the rest was hidden by his black and neon purple hair.
"Come in! We're making some Spegetti, "
Raf stepped aside as Soundwave let go of Ahsilas hand and walked in. Becoming completely engulfed by the smell, it was wonderful. He had never smelt something so good in his life. And then- something he thought he would never do. He spoke before he thought it through.
"Is the food finished?"
Raf shrugged.
"Almost"

When the food was done, they sat scattered around in Rafs room. Eating and watching silly human movies. Soundwave had eaten a whopping four plates of the spegetti, and was now on his fifth. The only other person who was still eating was Miko- who sat to the right of Soundwave on Rafs bed. He knew she was watching him. But paid no mind to it.

After another thirty minuets Soundwave found himself actually having fun. He had raced against Miko and Raf on his car racing consul. Beaten him three times out f five. While Miko played her guitar, a heavy tune that hurt Sounwaves ears slightly, but for the most part he enjoyed it.
"You got it this time Raf!"
Jack cheered. Soundwave was completely focused on the race. His left eye twitched from lack of blinking under his hair, but he didnt care. He would win again. He was determined. At the moment. Rafs yellow car ( which wasn't surprising since it reminded him of bumblebee)
Was slightly in the lead while Soundwaves red car was only a half an inch behind.
"Come on! You got this Sil! Go! Go!"
Miko shouted as she jumped up and down on the bed. Making Soundwave sit up from when he was leaning against it, Ahsila laughed from next to him. But he hardly noticed.
This was it. He had to get in the lead. He bent foreword slightly. Dimly aware of Raf mimicking his jester from next to him. And then, when all seemed lost, Soundwave smirked, rammed his car into the side of Rafs and took off. Crossing the finish line. Raf growled and Soundwave shot up, raising his hands in the air at his fourth victory. Shouted Yes's! And whopping while miko did a victory dance for her crush on the bed. Raf grumbled and dropped his controller.
"I've only seen bee beat me in a race."
And much to everyone's horror at his slip up. The room froze. And he rubbed the back of his neck.
"Oh I mean-"
"You mean the yellow autobot outside your house?"
Ahsila asked, then slapped a hand over her mouth. Jacks face went pale and Soundwave froze.
There covers blown. They were dead.
"I mean-"
"You knew?"
Raf asked. Now cirous. Ahsila cleared her throat and quickly stood up, taking Soundwaves hand.
"Well..."
"That is so cool!"
Miko yelped. Tackling Soundwave to the ground- luckily a bit of sweat had made the hair stick to his face slightly keeping it in place, he pushed her off.
"Now we can show them Bulkhead and Arcee! Even grumpy old Ratchet! Do you know about Optimis prime? The LEADER of the Autobot's!?"
She grabed Soundwave forcefully pulling him up off the ground, Ahsila behind him her face red with fear and embarisment.
"Now that you know..."
Jack sighed from behind them. Looking around quickly, his eyes not staying on one thing at once. Soundwave smiled inwardly, they didn't know he was a hologram. So at least their cover wasn't fully blown.
"I guess were gonna have to take you to base?"
Miko yelped again, annoying the scrap out of Soundwave and shouted.
"Yeah! Call ratchet the hatchet for a ground bridge!"
Soundwave turned on his comm that was located inside his massive robot brain and commd Knockout.

'Change of plans, knockout, we are going to the Autobot base'

The response was labored, In which Soundwave could only guess Knockout was thinking something smugly.

'Ill inform Megatron'

Autobot base

It was probably the most terrifying moment In Soundwaves life as he and the others walked into the ground bridge, surly, they would see the flaws? The resemblance? All eyes landed on Ahsila and Soundwave. A scowl that he could only guess was ratchet from the distance. Loud heavy foot steps came from the side, and Soundwave grew afraid. He raked slowly- his hair in front of his eyes as Optimus prime. Confronted them. He heard the sound of bumblebee and Bulkhead driving in. But everything was so slow. His eyes were wide, not in amazement but in fear. Why did Ahsila have to say this? He took a deep breath to calm down.
"I am Optimus prime"
Optimus said. Soundwave rolled his eyes. I know this! I've seen you!
"We are-"
He ignored what he said. Knowing exactly what they were, his eyes traveled along the others. And for once he felt... Useless, he was small. Too small for the liking.
"And how did they find out?"
Ratchet growled as he stepped foreword. The medic looked at Soundwave intensely making him a bit skittish. .
"Look, Optimus. I can explane!"
Jack cut in, making the medic look away and onto jack, he felt so relived that second he let out a breath he didnt know he was holding.
Soundwave listened hardly as Jack explained what happened. Optimus eyes never left the human, taking in the information with what looked like great interest.
"Very well. We just happened to have two new Autobot's come in."
He put his servos to his helm in a guess that he was comming them. He wanted for a brief second to use his telepathic powers to search inside his brain. As well as the medics, searching for any sign that they knew who he was. And then. Everything for Soundwave stopped.
His human heart sped up at the sight of a large black and red cement truck that drove its way past them, then transformed up boldly next to Optimus. The mother cycle. Soundwave knew as Arcee came speeding in along side a sleek pink sports car. But his eyes Wernt fixed in the pink car. They were fixed on the red and black mech in front of him.
And the mechs eyes shimmered with recognition.
