Alright you guys ready for the next chapter? Yeah sorry it took so long. School was bothering me and all that stuff. Anyway, onto the story.


The next day

Rick was eating his breakfast while he was in the did a number on him and he had bandages all over him. The worst part was that he couldn't leave because his sire forbid it. It was like being grounded all over again. But he was grounded for awhile and the hospital gave him food so it wasn't that bad. He still had the TV to entertain him.

"Man, the humans here are very good with entertainment." Rick said as he finished his scrapcakes. The door to his hospital room flew open. A figure about the size of him came into the room. It was Amy. "Hey Rick."

"Hey Amy." Rick said as she came into the room. Amy closed the door to the room. "How're you feeling?"

"Fine." Rick said as Amy sat on the bed with him. "I'm sorry about what happened to you."

"It's okay. It takes a lot more than a few cons to take me down." Rick said trying to smirk but grunted in pain when he tried to move his arm. Amy giggled. "It's only been a day. Rest your arm a little longer please." she said as Rick rolled his optics but nodded as well. "Where's everyone else?"

"They're at home resting. After what happened with the decepticons, the school was now closed until further notice."

"Then why aren't you at home?" Rick asked as Amy laughed nervously. "...you snuck out didn't you." he said as Amy nodded. "I just couldn't not see you. You're more than my best friend. You're my...mechfriend." Amy said with a sudden lush on her cheek plates. She turned around and covered her face. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." she said over and over again.

Rick only laughed at her. "Amy stop. It's okay." he said as Amy blushed more. "I've always wanted to ask you to be my femmefriend for a while now." Rick said with a smile as Amy looked back at him. She smiled too. "I guess we both had a crush on each other for a while now haven't we."

"Heh heh, yep." Rick said as the two younglings were now seeing eye to eye. They both blushed and smiled. "So uh...how long?"

"What?"

"Like, how long did you have a crush on me?" Amy asked as she covered her faceplate a little. Rick thought about it for a while. "About two years." he said as Amy widened her optics in shock. "Really!? I've liked you ever since….we started elementary school together." Amy said as Rick smiled more. "Wow. You liked me that much?"

"I never stopped liking you. Do you wanna kiss?" Amy asked shyly as Rick looked at her in a funny way. "S-Sorry, I shouldn't have asked I just-" Amy was interrupted by a pair of lips collided with hers. Rick kissed her. Actually kissed her. It felt so-

"Ahem." A low voice came from the hospital door. The two younglings immediately stopped kissing and looked at Prowl. "P-Prowl! I-"

"I see you two have been...together?" This only causes both Rick and Amy to blush completely. "Um, Prowl, please don't-"

"I won't. Amy, come. Your father's waiting for you. Looks like you'll be grounded for a long time."

"Aw." Amy said as she pouted. "It's okay Amy. Tomorrow is the official meeting for the junior elite guard. Maybe you and the rest of our friends could hang out there." Rick said as Amy smiled. "Yeah, I guess you're right." Amy said as she and Rick gave each other one last kiss before Amy climbed down from the bed and walked out the room.


As Amy sat in the car, she had to keep from smiling so her father could think she felt shame. Though, she felt a little shame, but not too much. She was just kissed by her crush. Her actual crush. And she loved it. And the fact that he liked her for a while was even better. This was also her first kiss and crush. And she loved it so badly.

"...and what in the right mind did you think you could-...why're you smiling?" Amy was snapped out of her thoughts at her sire's question. "Uh….no reason." Amy said rather quickly to her father. Optimus eyed his daughter suspiciously. Amy turned to look at the window to hide her blush and her smile. Optimus decided to ignore her for a while and focus on driving.

As Optimus pulled up at the house, Amy got out and turned back as she saw her father transformer into his bicep mode. Optimus gave her a stern look. "Alright spill." he said as Amy only rolled her optics. "I don't have anything to say."

"Young femme I was worried about you. You've been sneaking out without my permission and it's kinda scary. So can you at least tell me why?" Optimus said as Amy looked down. She didn't have to tell him who or where. Just why. "I just wanted to see Rick. It's been a while since I've seen him and I haven't heard back from him yet. I was scared." Amy said, looking like she was about to cry.

Optimus calmed down a bit and sighed. "I'll talk with you about this later. Go straight to your berthroom. Now." Without wasting another second, Amy transformed into her vehicle mode and drove up stairs to her room.


It's been a couple of minutes since Amy was ordered to stay in her room. Amy was holding a stuffed dog that her carrier gave to her before she went offline. She clutched it in her arms not wanting to let go of it. "I wish you were still here mommy." she said in a soft voice as she still remembered that night when her mother never returned.


Flashback

"MOMMY!" Little 5 year old Amy shouted as she saw her mother covered in energon blood being carried onto a stretcher. She desperately wanted to go after her. To be with her again. To hold her into her arms. But that was gonna be hard because her uncle Jazz was holding her down. "Amy please-"

"No! I want my mommy!" Amy shouted through all of the rain and thunder. She kicked and thrashed around but Jazz's hold was too strong for her and she couldn't kick or fight anymore. Her 5 year old body was too weak, so she gave.

After Jazz released his hold on her Amy hugged him tightly. "I know, I know. It's okay little one." Jazz said as he started to sooth her back.

After a couple of hours, Optimus came back home, but he wasn't looking like himself. He told Jazz that he could leave which is what he did and he went over to his daughter. Amy was more scared now. "D-Daddy? Where's mommy?" Amy asked with tears flowing down her optics. Optimus knew he had to tell her. He didn't wanna hide it anymore.

So, he kneeled down to her level and made sure he wasn't producing tears himself. "Amy...th-there's uh….something...I need to tell you." Optimus started to say as he sniffed a little. "Yes daddy?" Amy asked with tears as well. "Mommy….isn't coming home."

"W-Why not?" Amy shook with fear. She didn't know what was happening, nor did she want it. "Mommy….is offline." Amy heard the words clearly out of her sire's mouth. "No, no."

"I'm so sorry sweetie." Optimus said as Amy hugged her sire to no end.


That moment in her life was the most tragic moment she could ever encounter. She never went to sleep for an entire week because she always kept having nightmares about it. Luckily, her father was there to comfort her. Though he wasn't here now. At least, not in her room.

Amy then pulled the covers of her bed over her so she could cry without being seen. "I wish you were here mommy. I really do.

"Amy?" Amy knew it was her father. She immediately stopped talking and closed her optics. 'Maybe if he saw me sleeping he'll leave.' Amy thought to herself. Unfortunately, her father didn't leave and the covers were soon lifted from her. She shivered as the coldness returned to her joints.

Optimus rolled his optics. "Amy, come on. I know you're not asleep." Amy didn't respond. Optimus decided to sit on the bed with her. "I uh, talked to Ultra Magnus. He told me what happened to Rick." Optimus said, trying to start a conversation with his daughter. When Amy didn't say anything, he continued. "I know you two have a connection with each other. You must really love him." Amy decided to shift up a little, but that was the only response he got.

Optimus didn't accept this, so he picked up his daughter and put her in his lap. This caused Amy to open her optics. Amy turned her head away. "I don't wanna see you."

"Then at least, listen to me." Optimus said as Amy sighed. "I'm sorry about what happened this morning okay? But I was scared. I didn't know where you went off to."

"I know." Amy said softly that it took a minute for Optimus to hear what she said. "Hey, look at me." Optimus said as Amy rubbed her tears away and looked at her sire. "You're always gonna be my daughter, and I'll always love you." Optimus said as he kissed his daughter's cheek. Amy smiled a little bit at the love he gave her, but Optimus wasn't convinced that she was happy.

He then started to kiss her a little more on her cheeks which caused her to laugh. "Daddy, hahahahahahaha stop it hahahahahaha." Amy replied as Optimus stopped kissing her. "See, I love you Amy. Just promise me that you'll tell me where you're going next time okay?"

"Okay dad."


Phew. That took like 2 months. Sorry, I forgot about my 23rd chapter and decided to forget about it. But it's okay. I'm here now. Also, I got into this really cool anime called Inuyasha. I just finished the first series and all of the movies. I'm on the 3rd episode of inuyasha the final act. My friend told me that Sango and Miroku got married, but she won't tell me what happened to Kagome and Inuyasha. It's a surprise and I can't wait to see it! Alright, now if you excuse me, I have to keep watching the anime. Hopefully, I'll do a fanfic about Inuyasha and Shippo. And yes there will be fluff and tickles.
