Welcome to College
Make up date
Hey all! It's weekly update time! Now this chap has a twist but I have it for a reason, explanation at end!
So for anyone who was wondering about Kasey and Queenie, I just throw random characters into there, who more or less, I won't build up in the story, it's just to add to it. On subject, I just thought they don't really care for each other and would rather stay away from each other. *Shrugs* Also sometimes I just throw things in there to make the chapter longer.
And for anyone who really wanted StarScream to get his butt handed to him, I am sorry I didn't do that, really wasn't thinking of that at the moment, my mind kind of likes to think of the cool stuff after the chapter is published, any who, I have a little something in here for you all. Not much but, eh.
Either way Please Enjoy This Chapter!
Saturday: 1100 hours, AUTOBOT FRAT HOUSE,
Everyone was down in the living room, trying to pick pieces and flecks of glue and glitter out of their hair. Most had managed to get it clean off of their skin and their previous clothing's were in the washer, but their hair was chalk full of pink, and purple glitter.
"When I get my hands on those Decepti-creeps, I'm going to Strangle the ever living daylights out of them!" SmokeScreen said trying to tug at a piece of dried glue out and cringing in doing so.
"We are the ones who are partially at fault for this too." Everyone snapped their heads to Optimus giving him the 'What' look. "We had agreed to attend he party, even though we had subtly known something was up." Ratchet growled and peeled some glue off of his face, leaving a red mark.
"With all do respect Optimus." He started as he grabbed a chunk of dried glitter from his hair. "We agreed to go because we had the thought that Maybe the Decepticons were trying to make up for their past responsibilities." Everyone slightly nodded and grimaced at the pain from their hair being pulled out from their head by the glue.
"I don't care who's fault it is, they poured glue and glitter all over me, and they stole my Katana's, if I didn't hate them before, I hate them now." BumbleBee nodded agreeing with WheelJack.
"Hey so did you beat any of them up when you went back for them, cause if you did, I want to see the aftermath?" SmokeScreen asked hope raising in his voice. Ratchet grabbed a thick piece of glue on his head and ripped it off. "OWW!" He rubbed the new hurting spot and growled at the medic. "Your supposed to heal people not hurt them." A few laughed at the incident.
"I was tempted to, almost got StarScream, but I wanted my swords and I was tired." WheelJack replied after everyone quieted down, he took one of his katana's out and started wiping it with a clean rag. "But if I see him again, I will beat the life out of him." He fastened his cleaning and BulkHead set a hand onto his shoulder to calm him.
"I think we all want to bury them six feet under Jackie." He said taking off a long piece from his arm. As they were talking, Thunder walked in and sat down on Optimus's feet. He barked and started to pant starring his cobalt blue eyes into Optimus's electric blue ones.
"What?" He asked raising a brow at the Great Dane. He barked again and nudged his nose at his owners hand. He pet the dogs head and he panted faster and let his tongue fall to the side.
"You had to buy a dog." Ratchet said folding his arms and Optimus smiled
"I thought that he would be a good guard for our house."
"Ya, the best he guards is your room." The dog shot his head towards Ratchet and glared at him before looking back to Optimus and laying his head onto his knee. Everyone stayed silent and took a few more minutes to try and removed the glue and glitter from the themselves and then went their separate ways.
Saturday: 2000 hours, Arcee & Optimus, Black Angus,
Arcee met Optimus outside the restaurant. He had decided to wear one of his nicer shirts and a black pair of pants with dressy shoes, although there were still flecks of pink and purple glitter in his hair. Arcee had came with a black martini dress with two thick royal blue stripes on it, one on either side. They smiled at each other and walked into the restaurant, after getting a booth they waited for a while to talk.
"You're awfully quiet tonight Optimus, are you alright?" Arcee asked frowning.
"I am fine Arcee, just have had a bit of a bad day."
"I can see that." She let out a little chuckle and pulled some glitter from his hair and he smiled at her. "But you shouldn't let what they Decepticons did get to you... That's what they want." He sighed and rested his arms onto the table.
"I know, but I have never, in all my years as a cybertronian or human have I been humiliated like that."
"We all have our moments, wether public or private, mine was in front of my sorority when Brittnianne took our base."
"She did?"
"Story for another time, right now we just need to relax and enjoy our night together." They talked for a while, laughing and listening to each other. It was in fact a relaxing night, no one to bother them, just the peace and silence of themselves.
"You seemed to get along fine with Brittnianne last night."
"Ya, we didn't really converse with each other... Neither one of us would take the first foot forward."
"I wouldn't blame you, me and Megatron are the same."
"Speaking of her." Arcee looked from their booth and Optimus did also, to see Brittnianne and her group sitting down in a round booth not to far from them. Arcee's eyes narrowed and Optimus set a hand onto hers.
"You mustn't let her ruin your life whenever she shows up." Arcee looked back to him and sighed. "Just ignore her, the more you get angry the more you feed her." She half smiled and rested her other hand on top of his.
"Thanks, you always seem to know what to say."
"I'm still trying to figure out if it's a blessing or a curse."
"What? your hotness." Both looked from each other to the blonde haired girl that was standing at their table.
"Brittnianne." Arcee said through clenched teeth and the girl looked to her and smiled.
"Oh, Arcee, how are you this fine night?" She asked cheerily.
"Fine, you?" Arcee asked back about ready to pounce on the girl.
"Oh just peachy, me and my sorority were just coming to dinner for a little celebration."
"What would it be for?"
"My father, he just bought the school, isn't it exciting, now he's the highest authority here!" Arcee never knew her heart could race that fast, Brittniannes father, was now, the highest authority in the school? She gulped and tried to form a smile but her face was to stiff to do so.
"I-I"
"We are happy for your fathers new achievement." Optimus said seeing Arcee's nervousness.
"I know right." She sat down in the same booth as Arcee and bumped her over so that she was fully facing Optimus. "I thought maybe you'd like to join our celebration, of course." she looked to Arcee who was trying not to go crazy. "Your friend can join us too." She looked back to Optimus and smiled sweetly.
"I am sorry Brittnianne, but I am on a date tonight."
"Oh with who, is it like a date with a friend company, because everyone knows you don't invite friends on dates." She said implying on Arcee who faced her, and her face was ever so slowly turning a fiery red.
"I am, his date." She said her fists and teeth clenching tightly.
"Oh, my mistake."
"Now if you don't mind... We were in the middle of talking when you interrupted us, can we please have some peace and quiet."
"Why didn't you just say so." She got up and walked back to her booth, but not without turning back to Optimus and making the 'call me' gesture.
"That girl is such a -" Optimus cleared his throat and Arcee looked to him. "I know, I shouldn't say it, but she is."
"I understand, but the more you allow her to get under your skin the more control she will have of you." She took in a deep breath and let it out slowly and dragged her fingers through her hair. After a few more minutes their food showed up and they ate it quietly. Afterwards Optimus paid for it all and they left.
"Soooo, where to?" Arcee asked looking her date into his eyes. She could tell that he was in deep thought and she stayed quiet until he spoke up.
"What about that hill, we never really got to finish that kiss." She looked away and blushed. He looked to her motorcycle and walked over to it. "I'll drive."
"Are you sure you know how to ride a motorcycle, you more know of the eight wheelers."
"Are you doubting my driving skills?" He asked mockingly.
"N-no, I was just." He got on and she got behind him. He looked back and raised a brow.
"How did you even ride this with a dress?"
"I've got shorts on under." He nodded and started the engine. After letting it warm up he let the brake go and shifted into gear before driving out of the parking lot. As he did so Brittnianne walked out of the restaurant with her group.
"Follow them." She said narrowing her eyes. "I don't want them getting to close together, that Optimus, is mine." She clenched her jaw and looked at the girls behind her. "Well! Get a move on!" They scattered and she stood there with her arms folded sulking in her anger at the Delta leader. She loosened up when she heard heavy footsteps walking her way, her eyes looked to her left to see the Decepticons leader. Her arms folded again and she looked away. "Are they ready?"
"Why wouldn't they be, my men are more organized than your girls." She growled at him and tightened her fists. "All I'm saying is we have been doing this longer than you have."
"Oh ya, you just showed up at this college, how could you have more experience."
"I may be new to this college, but I am certainly not new to life." She huffed and rolled her eyes.
"So why did you even agree to do this."
"The other night, you remember that portal?"
"The swirling green light?" He nodded and she raised a brow. "That was no illusion, it was an actual portal into our universe."
"Your universe?" He angrily sighed and pursed his lips.
"That's all I'm giving, I just think that Optimus was behind it, it did after all open before him. I think that a little." He looked up as if searching for the right word. "Persuasion, will get him to tell me the truth."
"And by persuasion you mean this."
"Of course, if there is one thing I know of Optimus, it is that in order to get what you want you must take what he holds closest to him." She smirked and shifted her weight to one foot.
"So you get to get your answers and I get my chance. We could make a great team."
"Don't get any ideas." He walked off and left the Alpha leader to herself.
Optimus and Arcee sat on the top of their hill. Street lights and stars lit up the sky. The weather was a little bit cold, so Arcee was sitting extra close to Optimus. A smile filled her face and his as they sat there in pure silence, enjoying each other's presence. They could occasionally hear the cars passing by but the sound was so muted they didn't really care.
"Thanks for the great night Optimus." Arcee said looking up and he looked down to her.
"I should be the one thanking you Arcee, this was a very relaxing night to forget about a very stressful day."
"Well then, you're welcome." He laughed a bit and she smiled even wider.
"Back in our universe I never wanted to love, I felt that if I did I would of died and the last thing I wanted was to leave someone that close to me like that. But now that we're here and, even though were human, I never want to let it go, I never want to let you go."
"It's just nice to have a relationship with someone and not feel like their going to get killed every corner I turn." Optimus leaned down and kissed Arcee, it liingered on for a few minutes before they broke away and looked to each other, hope and passion filling their eyes. Before they could do anything else they heard slow clapping and the two looked over to see Megatron looking towards them.
"Bravo, Optimus, Bravo... You've managed to sway yourself into her heart. But we all know that Arcee is not the right woman for you, she's to controlling, unpredictable."
"Unpredictable, controlling! I'll show you Unpredictable and controlling!" She shot up from her spot and went to charge for the large man, but was held back by Optimus's soft but strong grasp.
"Arcee, he's trying to get to you." She calmed down, but still kept her deadly glare on the man. Her eyes darted to another figure walking up the hill and she growled when she saw who it was.
"It's sad but true Arcee, everyone knows that Optimus is too good for you." She tried to break from her date's grasp but was unable to. "Oh Optimus, if you took a girl like me you wouldn't have to deal with this type of dangerous outbursts." Arcee growled at the snobby rich girl.
"Anyways Optimus," they looked over to see StarScream walking up beside Megatron. "She's already lost two partners, she may even compare you to them, and who would want that?"
"Oh that's it, you are going to DIE!" She broke from Optimus's grasp and charged for the Decepticno SIC. She may of hated the ever living daylights out of Brittnianne, but the man had personally insulted her past partners, one which he had killed himself. He backed away from her and she moved faster. "Get back here you coward!" She charged after him and Brittnianne looked to Megatron.
"Smart bait." The man smirked and looked to Optimus who was walking over to him.
"Care to tell me why you all are here?"
"No reason, I just needed a little something from you."
"What could you possibly need from me?"
"Just a little Some...one." Optimus looked down and saw that Arcee had tackled StarScream and punched his across the nose making it bleed. She then punched him again to the point where he was putting his hands up from mercy.
A second later she was pulled off from the skinny man and dragged to the back of a car. Optimus glanced at Megatron, a hint of anger gleaning in his eyes. As he went to walk down Megatron set a hand onto Optimus's chest.
"I wouldn't." Optimus faced is enemy and with all the strength he had he punched him across the face making the bulky man stumble back surprised. He then went down the hill as fast as he could without tripping trying to reach Arcee in time. But the car skidded off with Arcee trying to fight her way out from ShockWave's grasp. Megatron walked past him and jumped onto a motorcycle. "I will meet you in a few days for what I want." He drove off and Brittnianne walked up to him.
"In my own account, I believe that Arcee really was't a good match for you... Me on the other hand, well I find that we're perfect for each other." Optimus turned to her trying to hold back his anger that was boiling up inside of him.
"You're worse than Megatron himself." He started slicing his hand through the air. "You need to go back to wherever you came from, because I am Done with you, all of you." He has spoken in a calm, but deep and angered voice, he started to walk away but stopped and turned his head halfway back to her. "Don't you ever think I will Ever go out with you, because you are thoroughly wrong." He marched off and she just starred at him wide eyed.
"Well then Optimus, if it's war you want then it's war you'll get." She walked back to her car and jumped in. As she started her car she looked to the bushes and growled. "You can all get out, you weren't needed after all." She pressed on the gas a little to hard and her car shot off leaving a trail of dust.
Saturday: 2300 hours, Unknown WareHouse,
ShockWave carried a kicking and screaming Arcee into the dark space. She knew it wasn't their house and she knew why. The man who was holding her hostage turned around and she saw a pair of red eyes walking up to her.
"I think you'll find this place most suiting." She could hear the laughter in Megatrons voice as he spoke. She glared at him before spitting his his face. She then heard a deep growl as he wiped it off his face.
"Eat Scrap you aft." He smacked her across the face and growled.
"Keep her in here until were ready for her."
"What is your plan anyways? It's not like you can kill me, you are human after all, and there is so much you can do."
"I want answers, is that so much to ask for?" He asked back raising a brow.
"You seem to be going through a lot to get them."
"Oh my dear, you're life is only my backup plan for if I don't get what I want. your role may not be big in my eyes, but it will be in Optimus's." He walked away and ShockWave let her go and followed his leader out but before she could escape along with them, the doors shut on her, leaving her in full darkness.
