Chapter 8: My Sweet Prince
Melody's POV
So right now, it was just me, Stargazer, and my uncle. He knows about me and Prowl, and Stargazer and Jazz. Great, were both dead. The last thing I needed to worry about was him talking about how we were a bit young to be dating. Dating his students no less, oh man, I was gonna have to defend us both. Poor Stargazer has never seen him so upset before, and I didn't want to see her cry either. "Stargazer, could you give me and Melody a moment to talk?" Yorketron asked as she slowly nodded before rushing off a bit. Great, this was it. Time to defend the both of us Melody, I said to myself, slowly breathing in and out. "Before you say anything uncle, let me explain." I said, starting off. "I.. Told Star to keep the crush thing a secret, but.. I guess it finally came out." I said, turning around as I crossed my arms a bit, feeling scared before I heard footsteps come my way. Now, I was even more scared. I flinched a bit, even though I was blind, but felt two hands around my shoulders. "Why didn't you say something earlier?" He asked me as I shook my helm, trying to hold back tears. "I.. I didn't want to say anything until the time was right.. I didn't want anything bad to happen to Prowl, Jazz, Stargazer, or me.. But, I should be the one getting punished." I said, breathing out after all of this, rubbing my optics. I haven't cried so much in my life. My uncle slowly turned me around before hugging me tightly. Maybe.. Maybe he understood.
"Wait.. She shouldn't be the only one to get punished."
We both heard Stargazer say as she walked out. "I kept it a secret as well.. Don't just punish her, I deserve it as well." She said, shaking her helm. Star was gonna take the blame as well? "Star.." I slowly said as she walked over before Yorketron included her in the hug as well. Even though I couldn't see it, I could hear Stargazer sniffling a bit. Was she crying? "Stargazer.. Are you crying?" I asked in a soft voice as she shook her helm. "No.. Chromia says big girls like us never cry.. Ever." She said as we hugged one another tighter before letting go. Speaking of Prowl, I promised to meet him in my room tonight. Man, he was actually.. Pretty cute. "I will let this go for now, but promise me you two won't hide anything else from me again." Uncle said as we both shook our helms. "H-Hey, wait! What about Chromia! She hides things too ya know!" Star said, her arms waving a bit as I laughed. "Hey, that's Chromia, she always hides things. Its who she is." I said as she crossed her arms, her cheeks puffed out like a little kid's as she looked away. Star then checked the time, her optics widening before whispering something into my audio processor. My optics then widened afterwards. The date! Oh shoot, the date with me and Prowl, I completely forgot, I feel so stupid!
"Oh geez, that, I can't believe I forget it! Thanks Star, your the best!" I shout before rushing off as Yorketron gave Star a look. She laughed a bit nervously, looking away as she spoke up. "Yeah, forgot to mention a slight detail.. Melody's got a date with Prowl tonight!" She said, covering her mouth after. Well, way to keep THAT a secret Stargazer. With that, I kept running, skidding to a stop near my room before opening the door. I saw the shadow, smiling as I saw him, seeing his smile as I hugged him tightly. "Hey.. Sorry for being late.." I said to him as he wrapped his arms around me. "Its fine.. How did he take it?" He asked, wondering about Uncle as I smiled a bit. "He's fine with it.. Stargazer's out there anyways, so its cool.." I say as Prowl nodded, sitting on my bed next to me. To think that me and him would be dating, never imagined it. "So, what's this I heard about Drift and Chromia are dating?" He asked me as I looked at him. "Guess the rumors are true.. Stargazer was the one who devised the plan.." I said as he looked almost shocked. "Stargazer.. Our Stargazer! There's no way she could." He said as I nodded slowly. "Believe it or not.. She did." I said, shocked myself.
Who knew Stargazer was a little troublemaker just like Chromia? Guess it must be the way Chromia usually does things. "I need to do this.." He said before kissing my lips sweetly, blushing as I blushed back. His lips were just as sweet as Energon itself. "Not the only one who wanted to do it.." I say sweetly, still blushing as I looked away shyly before he wrapped his arms around me, bringing me close to him as we relaxed on my bed. My body laid against his as I snuggled against his cheek, smiling. We've never done this before at all. We've done the usual hugging, kissing, saying how much we loved each other, etc. We've never kissed for so long nor snuggled with each other. I loved this. "Wow.. I could get used to this." I say a bit shyly as he smiled at me. "Same here.." He says to me before we kissed once more. Dang, I was getting lucky tonight, wasn't I? Guess this was Primus's way of thanking me for all of my hard work. "I love you, my sweet prince.." I say, yawning a bit before feeling his hands rub my back slowly and softly. "I love you too.. My beautiful princess.. Now sleep peacefully." He said before I nodded, slowly snoozing off.
Whenever I dreamt, he would be there. When I slept, he would be beside me. Whenever I woke up, he would always be there for me.
