Chapter 14

"Bee, bee!" Shadowblade called.

She let out a sigh and looked at the navigator in her servo. She was 30 miles away from the base, but she really needed to find him. A beep got her attention. She looked at the navigator and smirked.

"Bee, you're in serious trouble now." She yelled.

She walked a few feet in front of her to see a pitch black cave except for she could hear breathing in the back of it. She softly giggled and sneaked into the cave to scare him. But when she was close enough she notice his fans were whirling like crazy. She could hear it from there, and she was a pretty good length away from him. She was now curious and sneaked closer. Once she found out that he was asleep, she began to be curious about what he was dreaming about. She tapped on his helm and he woke up and quickly got up and hid behind one of the rock behind him. She just burst out laughing.

"Hey that's not funny!" He beeped.

"Oh Bumblebee, but it is." She giggled.

He walked out from the rock.

"You won't tell, will you?" He beeped again.

"Don't worry Bee, your secrets safe with me. Trust me." She said sitting on the rocky ground.

He sat on a rock right next to her.

"Who were you dreaming about or what were you dreaming about?" She asked.

Bumblebee got nervous

"Arcee." He confessed

"I used to fantasize about Optimus and Starscream if I was alone. It was never as good as the really thing though." She said.

Bumblebee just looked down at her. So he wasn't the only one, but he still never got to feel it. Pleasure. Only in his dreams.

"So this wasn't a surprise?" He asked.

"Nope, well, a little bit but I'm good with it. But let's just keep that in-between us, ok?"

Shadowblade smiled.

"Why don't you ask her out then?"

"I'm nervous she'll say no."

"You can give it a try. I'll be right behind you." She said smiling.

"Great, but before we leave… can I ask you something." His beeps were getting softer.

"Yeah sure what is it?"

"Can you teach me how to interface?"

She was now confused. Why was he asking her instead of waiting?

"Why?"

"I just want to know, because I don't."

She let out a little giggle.

"Sure, I can teach you a few things."

She led Bumblebee back to the base. He seemed really nervous, and she knew why.

"Remember; just say 'can I go out with you'. If she says no, there's another femme out there for you. But, if she says yes, have fun with your girlfriend." She said encouragingly.

Once he spotted Arcee he froze. Shadowblade gave him an encouraging smile.

"You can do it Bee."

He started to walk again and she followed.

"Hey Arcee"

She gazed at Shadowblade and Bumblebee.

"What do you want Blade?" She asked impatiently.

"Bumblebee has something to ask you." She said.

Bumblebee was getting nervous again. His body stiffened up, he had a nervous look on his faceplates, and he was slowly stepping backwards. Shadowblade stopped him from moving anymore by putting her servo behind his back.

"You can't leave now Bee. You're needed to ask her now." Shadowblade whispered.

Arcee stood in front of Bumblebee, her servos on her hips.

"What's your question" She asked politely.

That was surprising to Shadowblade. She was never polite when she was around. No matter whom she was with, even if it was Optimus.

"Will you…" He went silent for a second and glanced at Shadowblade.

"Go on" She whispered.

"Go out with me Arcee." He beeped.

"Sorry, bee. But I'm not looking for a boyfriend right now." She said. She walked away from them.

Bumblebee turned around and slowly walked away, just for Shadowblade to stop him.

"You tried. I know there's a femme out there for you." She said trying to cheer him up.

"She's the only one I know. And I was denied."

Shadowblade hugged him.

"You'll have plenty of chances, just wait."

Bumblebee looked like he made a smile, but she could tell.

"Now, I still think Bloodstain is looking for you."

Bumblebee was now worried.

"Is he angry?"

"No, he's actually really worried about you."

And with that he went to find Bloodstain.

She smiled. They're best friends. They did almost everything together; even have the same crush, Arcee? She wandered back to the center of the base and bumped into Optimus.

"I see you found Bumblebee." He noted.

"Yep he was fine, just needed a little alone time, that's all." She explained.

"You taught him how to interface didn't you?"

How did he know, he was never there.

"No, why would you think that."

He could tell she was lying. And he knew she did anyway.

"You're lying, and I know it."

"How?"

"I saw you."

There was no way he could've found out, unless he followed her!

"You followed me!" Her voice was jittery.

"I wasn't going to let you go alone."

"But I could've handled it. Why, Optimus?"

"You're my sparkmate. I wasn't just going to let you go out there by yourself."

"Now you just sound like Megatron."

"But I'm not him."

"Well you really do sound like him."

"But you're carrying a sparkling Blade; I wasn't going to let you go alone!" He shouted.

He everyone's attention now. She glared at Optimus.

"You had to shout it, didn't you?"

"I'm just a little upset ok."

"A little? You just shouted out a secret!"

"On an accident!"

"You sure it was an accident."

"That's not the point. The point is why?"

"It was just a lesson! It's not like I cheated on you!"

"Were you trying to?"

"I'm your sparkmate Optimus!"

Bumblebee knew what they were talking about. He felt ashamed of himself for asking for the lesson.

"For now."

"What the hell Optimus! Are you really having regrets?"

"A little."

"Really, I'm your sparkmate, and I love you! Do you regret saying I love you?"

"Never!"

"Then why are you regretting making you my sparkmate?"

He didn't answer.

"Optimus answer me!" She shouted.

That was their breaking point.

"STALKER!"

"SLUT!"

They screamed at each other. Optimus hardly felt hurt by what she said, but what he said, what he said made her run into her room. He messed up, badly. And he didn't know how to fix it. Everyone was shocked by what he had said, especially the humans. When he didn't mean any of it.

"Hey Optimus"

His focus was now on Jessica.

"Yes Jessica."

"You have to apologize. If not she'll probably never come out."

He was being told by a human what to do. But she was right. Shadowblade would never come out of her room if he didn't apologize.

"I am right now."

He walked to her room door and gently said her name.

"Go away."

Her voice was raspy from the fight and crying.

"I'm here to apologize."

"You're going to apologize and then you're going to separate from me. I know it."

"Blade I didn't mean it."

"Of course you didn't! You never mean anything you say!" She shouted through the door.

He was hurt now. But they were even now.

He sighed and started to walk away from the door.

She heard him walk away from the door and let out a whimper.

"Optimus don't go."

She was a hurt as he was, and she wanted him to be there. She didn't want to be alone, because she had been alone long enough.

He heard her whimpers and turned around. He heard her whimper again.

"Please come back. I'm sorry."

"I'm the one who's sorry." He said gently as he walked back to her door.

The door slid open and she hugged him.

"Don't leave me, please. I already lost Starscream; I don't want to lose you to." She sobbed into his chestplates.

"You won't lose me. I promise you that."

She looked up at him. Her tear covered face made the prime kiss her. He made a promise to her that he would never leave her and he knew he had to keep it. Everyone still watched them, but the two didn't care. She broke away from him and grabbed his servo with a small smirk on her faceplates. He knew what she was doing and gave in. She pulled him into her room and the door slid shut.

Everyone else just stared. Then Arcee broke the silence.

"Get into a fight, get upset, and get laid." She said.

Everyone's attention was now on her. She looked left and right at them.

"Well we just saw it happen." She pointed out.

Bumblebee and Bloodstain agreed first. And everyone else started to agree as well.

"Optimus" They heard Shadowblade moan.

They looked down the dark hall way then back at each other.

"Patrol, anyone?" Bloodstain asked.

Everyone raised their hands, even Ratchet. Bloodstain transformed and blasted straight out of there. Next was Bumblebee, Rafael jumped into the back seat and they drove off. Then Arcee and Bulkhead. And finally Ratchet. Jessica grabbed her book and opened the front seat door of the medical vehicle just for Ratchet to shut it.

"Why didn't you ride in Bumblebee or Bulkhead?" He grunted.

"Because they left before I had a chance."

"Well you're not getting in here." He said sternly.

Just after he said that they heard Shadowblade moan out Optimus Primes name again.

"Ok you can get in." He said quickly.

She jumped into the front seat and they drove off.

LOL, that part made me laugh writing it. Anyway, school is coming around the corner and you know what that means. Longer time for me to write chapters : P. And with softball and volleyball on my mind the chapters will take longer than normal. Well now I'm on chapter 15 and yay almost done. Review please.
