Okay, the song in this chapter is MINE. I WROTE IT. So don't be a jerk-off and steal it! Thanks for not being a jerk-off
Alexis's eyes swelled with shock and joy, now knowing that there was another girl to talk to! She smiled at the Transformer as the unmasked femme lied down on her recharge bed and looked at the ceiling. I can't believe it! they both thought in unison. However, they had different reasons for thinking that. I've let TWO people know about my secret, and I'm trusting both of them not to tell their leader! Well, he's my leader too, but still! What is coming over me! Midi's mind was wracked with pain towards imagining what it'd feel like to kick herself in the face repeatedly. Alexis, on the other hand, couldn't help but wonder how a femme got through being a Decepticon!
"Umm, Breaker?" Alexis asked, watching the Transformer come out of her deep thought. The Transformer turned her head and faced the little human girl.
"Yeah?" she asked, startled by her own uncovered feminine voice.
"I-If it's not too much to ask," Alexis started, looking down in shame for asking such a personal question, "could you tell me why you were a Decepticon?" Alexis noticed the Transformer's facial expressions go hard with past pain and hurt.
"I'd rather not talk about it twice in one day, if you don't mind . . ." drifted Breaker. Alexis looked at her puzzled. "Twice? You mean someone else at the base knows!"
With a deep sigh, as if trying to have all pain and confusion leave her body, Breaker explained what happened; from Sideswipe came into her room with her helmet and mask off up to when she gave him the Minicon panel to offer to Optimus for her. "If you want to hear about how I became a Decepticon, please go ask Sideswipe. Tell him that Midi let you ask. Anything else I can clear up for you while you're here?" she asked. The brown-haired human said she only had one.
"Your real name is Midi, am I right?" asked Alexis. The Transformer nodded. "Is that after the music file?" Midi's face went slightly pink at the mention of someone discovering her favorite past-time. The brunette noticed and chuckled. "I'm going to take that as a 'yes'. Do you sing your own songs?" she asked. The human laughed as she witnessed a Transformer's face turn the same color as Starscream's armor with embarrassment.
Alexis became giddy with excitement. "Oh Midi, could you sing me something? Please! Pretty please!" the brunette pleaded. Midi became too flushed to handle the heat coming from her face.
"Alright, alright; just simmer down and let me check the hallways to make sure no one else will hear," the Transformer eased. With a cry of joy, Alexis sat with her legs dangling over the edge of the desk, waiting patiently to hear a Transformer do something that the other boys hadn't. After making sure the corridors were clear, Midi sat on her recharge bed, preparing herself so she (in her view) wouldn't slag too much at her own song.
"Oh-kay now . . . I'm just warning you right now that I haven't done this in a while, so don't expect perfection," Midi advised with a nervous chuckle. Clearing her throat, the Transformer took a deep breath and burst fully into a short, but heart-felt song that went something like this:
You see no reason
To return to the people you supposedly miss,
When I try to reason
You seal my lips with a painful kiss.
I've been following your guidelines
Hoping you'd return as you said.
But you decided to change your mind,
Which began to shred
My life apart, you're tearing my heart,
You think my life's a game where you can press "RESTART"?
Well I'm sorry, you're wrong
This is where I belong
At least for now until I can be
Done with my song . . .
Alexis's mouth dropped, as well as a tear when Midi had finished her petite expression of emotion. "Was that song written about someone you loved?" she asked.
Midi shook her head slightly. "No, it wasn't," she said. "A friend wanted to let a girl he liked know about his feelings, but he was too much of a sissy to pull it off, so, I sang the song and said it was dedicated to the femme from my friend . . . If that makes any sense to you." Midi chuckled awkwardly.
The brunette chuckled as well. "Yeah, I think I understood where you were going with that. I hate to say this, but I think it's about time I went home." Alexis stood up as Midi rose from her recharge bed and started putting on her helmet and mask. Midi escorted the little human to the outskirts of the base and waved as the beaming girl made her way home. Well, I guess I made someone's day a little better . . . Midi thought with a smirk.
