GOD! First of all, I'd like to thank all of my reviewers. You guys mean the absolute world to me and I'm really honored a lot of you all stayed with me through thick and thin.

Secondly, I've noticed that a lot of writers on here really like to whore for their reviews. D: Sorry if this is random, but it's really been bugging me lately and I just wanted to say that I would NEVER in a million years, hold a chapter hostage until I got an x amount of reviews. That's just not fair.

I write stories for my own entertainment and although I do end up taking some of them down, it has nothing to do with anybody else on this website except myself! (Mainly because I hate filling up my account with discontinued stuff... even though i do it a lot. xD lol)

Anyway, sorry for being a bum with the author's notes! Here's the chapter!

Sideswipe grumbled to himself in the corner of the hangar, glaring at the other side. His arms were folded tightly and his right foot shook like crazy.

Amy placed a small hand on his armor, "Sideswipe, you need to calm down. It's over with."

Sideswipe continued to stare down Ironhide angrily. "No, he's a big friggin' afthole," he growled. "He has no right to talk about you like that. No right."

"Well then let him be an asshole," Amy muttered. "Just stop being a big grump about it. It's bringing me down."

"Sorry," Sideswipe grunted.

"Alright, whatever," Amy sighed, shook her head, stood up, wiped herself off with her hands, and walked away.

"Ame!" Sideswipe yelled after her. "Come on! I'm sorry!" Quickly transforming into his alternate mode, he activated his holoform and ran to her as fast as possible. When he reached her, he grabbed her arm as gently as possible and turned her around. "Amy, come on. Don't be like this. I'm sorry. He's just pissing me off."

She yanked her arm out of his hand. "Yeah and you're pissing me off. Just let it go. It's not like I expected everybody to like me."

"That's not the point," Sideswipe sighed and looked at the doorway behind her. "Can I talk to you in private about this?"

Amy shrugged. "Yeah, sure."

"Come on,"

She allowed him to lead her out of the hangar. When they'd gotten far enough and in the privacy of another hangar, which was empty and mainly used as storage, the two of them sat in one of the far corners.

"What did you wanna talk about?" Amy asked, not really sure where this was going to go.

"Come here," Sideswipe said, pulling her closer. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders before he continued. "I just wanted you to know that I'm sorry for being a dick. I get that this whole Ironhide feud is upsetting you, but you need to understand that I've known him for a fraggin' long time and we argue constantly. We never really got along and I get that you're not used to that, but you gotta let us get it all out."

Amy shrugged, looking away. "I don't belong here. I'm always confused, and I never know how to act in front of your kind."

Sideswipe chuckled and shrugged, "Be normal! We're all a bunch of goofy afts. Even Optimus has his 'jokester' days where we all sit, have a drink or two, laugh, discuss how much the Decepticons suck and how worthless they are, blahblah. Seriously," he kissed her head. "We're like you guys."

"But what does Ironhide have against humans?" Amy asked.

Sideswipe sighed but it sounded more like a groan. "Ironhide doesn't hate humans or anything. I mean, he's been the family guardian of Will Lennox and his family for like.. years. He just doesn't like me and if I'm happy, he'll try and bring me down. I think he likes me.."

At that, Amy laughed. "Oh, yeah. I'm sure he's just in love with you."

"Well, I am charming,"

She shook her head with a laugh. "Keep telling yourself that."

For the longest time, they stared into one another's eyes. Amy smiled when she saw Sideswipe's face getting closer and closed her eyes when his lips touched her own. She giggled when his lips traveled from her lips, to her cheek, chin and then neck.

A minute later, he pulled away and his eyes widened dramatically. "Oh, shit. Amy, I'm so sorry!"

Amy looked confused. "What're you talking about-" she paused when his fingers touched her neck. Pulling the cell phone out of her pocket, which was slightly cracked from her last meeting with the Decepticons, she focused it on her neck and used it as a mirror. She almost laughed at what she saw. Actually, she did laugh. "Oh, Sideswipe. That's-" she paused to take a breath. "That's okay. It's normal."

"It looks like it hurts!" Sideswipe nearly yelled back. "You're telling me that's normal?"

"Sides," she tried to hold her laughs as she grabbed his face, directing him so he was looking at her. "It's a hickey. It's a pretty normal thing these days."

"But.. what exactly is it?" Sideswipe asked, running a finger across it gently. "And does it hurt? Don't lie to me!"

"It doesn't hurt, I swear," she said. "It's kinda like a bruise, except it doesn't hurt. It's just something that happens when skin is sucked for a decent amount of time. It's actually kinda awkward to talk about," she laughed. "Can't you like.. look it up?"

His smile was crooked and cheeky. "I could, but it's so much more amusing to me when you explain it."

She laughed and slapped his arm playfully, but still hard nonetheless. "Shut up." She leaned back against him and sighed, looking up at the ceiling. "I'm bored."

"Well, excuse me," Sideswipe gave her a playful hurt look.

She laughed. "Not bored of you! I just wish there was something to do here.. is there?"

"Whatever you wanna do," he shrugged.

"I wanna prank somebody,"

Sideswipe gave her an odd look. "You.. do?" When she nodded, he grinned. "I knew I picked the right chick!" He stood up abruptly. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go make some blueprints!"

"Wow," Amy laughed as she stood up. "You do get excited at the mere mention of a prank,"

"You don't even know!" He grinned childishly. "Seriously. I'm in the mood for a decent prank."

"Yeah, because it's not like you didn't just prank the entire base with you and your brother's switch-up," she rolled her eyes and smirked, taking his hand as he led her out of the hangar.

He dismissed her comment with the wave of his hand. "That was so yesterday," he flashed his teeth in a smile. "We'll come up with something even better.

"I can't wait," she said, kissing his cheek a few times before the two of them stalked off in the distance to discuss a new 'battle' plan.

Alright, I know it was short.. and possibly an epic failure, but this chapter gives you the chance to come up with some prank ideas to send me! (I figured since Ironhide and Sideswipe aren't getting along, I could get some good prank ideas for ol' Ironhide!)

So, if you'd like, send in some prank ideas, I'll give you all full credit and use them all in one chapter (or two chapters depending on how many I get). Remember: The more prank ideas, the longer the chapter will be and the faster the update!

And if I can be creative enough to make up my own, I definitely will throw in my own idea! :P
