My visor dimmed in boredom as I flicked through the contents of the main computer console within the energon bay. It certainly wasn't an amusing job having to search through a computer that has a screen of which displays nothing but boring words that you hold no interest in. I was standing quietly on one spot as I continued what I was doing, gradually growing more irritated. I wasn't alone, a few other vehicons; approximately five or six, were in here with me. I then began to hunch forward, trying to ignore the 'clinks' and 'whatangs' of the equipment my comrades were whacking and pounding around the place. They were giving me a genuine helm ache...

All of us were currently working on repairs, the machinery that was used to organise and store the energon cubes had broken down. Just wonderful. I gladly volunteered on trying to fix the main computer, it saves me the trouble of partaking in the heavy lifting duties. I simply don't have the concentration to do that. To be honest, I don't have the concentration to do anything whatsoever at the moment.

It has been a good three earth days since that amazing occurrence I had with Commander Shockwave, my very first interaction with him. I had not seen him since then, but that spark-stopping moment has never left my processor, nor do I think it will. My work has been much worse than it was previously due to this. Pfft, because I care, but I do have to be careful not to be too laid-back, or I will end up in major trouble. But in all honesty, I wasn't being laid-back! I was simply a little 'distracted'...

Okay; I was very distracted.

That remarkable touch I shared with my beloved Commander Shockwave; I could still feel it. The smooth metal of his servo was somewhat warm, I could even feel its diversity, let alone see it. I always have to keep telling myself that he didn't care that we even touched, because he truly didn't, but by the Allspark I wanted him to care so badly. If Commander Shockwave ever looked at me the way I looked at him, with lingering looks and loving optics, or 'optic' in his case, then my life would be complete. I wanted much much more than a subtle touch of his servo, even though that was a stunning transpiration I had with him that I will never ever forget.

I wanted to embrace and feel his entire frame, to keep him as close as possible to me and hold him, to recharge beside him every single night. My immense desire to be with him just keeps getting stronger and stronger, and I am certain that these desires will continue to grow. There's absolutely no hope I'll move onto loving someone else. I fell desperately in love with him the moment I saw him.

I then slowed my typing on the keyboard as I recalled when I first laid my optics on Commander Shockwave. It was when Starscream, myself and a few other vehicons along with two Autobot prisoners; Arcee and Cliffjumper, were making our way to one of his laboratories on Cybertron. It was to decode an encrypted Autobot message the prisoners had both received from Optimus Prime himself, and at first, I was very afraid of seeing Commander Shockwave. Oh, I simply had no idea.

I had heard so much about him, so many frightening rumours that made my energon run cold. I'm pretty certain that most of these rumours are true as well. I also heard that he was a remarkable scientist; that was also enough to petrify me. Scientists, doctors etc; yeah, they terrify me. The thought of being held captive as an experiment... Slowly being dissected and stuck into by needles. I simply shudder at the thought.

But once I saw him; when my optics landed on him, my entire frame just decided to stop functioning, as though my entire processor was simply focusing its attention on the functioning of my optics, to observe and analyse every nook and cranny of the purple mech's luscious frame. I simply couldn't help but stare, he was walking with such a collected stride, two vehicons right beside him, and my mouth just went agape behind my mask as my optics widened.

I remember it distinctly. I was at the main entrance of the lab, he was a good distance away from me, but I knew I was in love the moment he was within my sight. The rumours of him, be they true or not, didn't matter to me anymore.

My faceplates heated up as my optics sucked up every last detail of his frame before he had walked into the room of which Starscream, Arcee and Cliffjumper had entered. I waited a short while before I hearing minor shouts, it was obvious that they were mainly emitting from Cliffjumper.

"Arcee?! Arcee?! I'll scrap you both!"

But I honestly didn't care about those Autobots, I just wanted to see that unbearably attractive mech again. But Cliffjumper's shouts was when I realised that Shockwave had clearly achieved what we came here for. I was so very impressed by this, the rumours of him being an amazing scientist were clearly true.

Shortly afterward, he steadily exited the room again, the very same vehicons following him, and then he was gone. He had entered the room he came from, clearly going back to whatever scientific duties he had been working on beforehand. I gazed at the door in a complete love-daze, my arms drooped to my side as I tilted my helm sideways slightly. I would be lying if I said I wasn't jealous of the vehicons that were privileged to actually be beside and walk with Commander Shockwave. I would love my work within the Decepticons so much more if that was what I got to do.

"214!"

"Huh?! What?!"

I was suddenly brought out of my daydream, I swiftly turned around and looked at the vehicon that called my 'name'. He, and the rest of the vehicons, were looking at me. They were all complete with their repairs and they simply stood there. Waiting. Why must I be such an easily distracted mech?

"I asked; Are you complete with the repairs on the computer?" The same vehicon questioned again as he continued to look at me. I felt my spark sink and I turned to look at the computer again, fumbling with my servos as I began typing on the keyboard again, increasing my efforts on repairing the console. "N-not yet, uh, almost done!" I said a little too quickly, trying to rush as I could practically feel their optics burning into me.

After awhile, I finally completed the repairs, the sound of machinery turning online and moving around soon following as I did so. The vehicons immediately left the room as they became certain of the successful repairs, it was obvious to me that I had worn out their patience. I sighed slightly as I watched them leave, my visor dimming more than before as I too left the room.

I was now going to return to the job I had been doing before I was randomly comlinked to participate in the repairs of the energon bay's systems. This job being patrol duty. I enjoy patrol duty the most out of all my jobs because I was constantly walking, even something as simplistic as that is enough to keep me happily occupied. It was much less boring than guard duty, just standing there and doing nothing. Bleh!

Whereas patrol duty, I could get a small insight on what everyone was doing on the ship. Sometimes something interesting would happen, I remember when Knockout was having a panic attack because there was a scratch on his finish. I approached and stood outside of the medical bay once I heard him, trying to contain my laughter as I listened to him.

"Look. At. It. Look at it! It's huge!"

"My buffer?! Has anyone seen my- Where is my buffer?! For Primus' sake!"

"Agh! This scratch! It's burning into my very soul!"

Once the red medic said that, I ran away as I started to burst out laughing, he was such a prissy femme.

So yes, patrol duty certainly can be fun, and I'm excited about it this time because I'll be patrolling the sector of the ship where the laboratory is located! Where Commander Shockwave is!

I completely ignored the quiet yet high-pitched squeal that escaped my vocalizer as I began to rush to said sector, not too long before arriving. I took out my black-coloured cannon and held it firmly within the pointed digits of my servo, carefully looking around the quiet area before I took the patrol route around the sector.

On usual patrol duties, I would occasionally pass a vehicon, who would nod at me as I nodded at him in acknowledgment. Sometimes I would pass an officer, which would frighten me if they were in a bad mood, but generally they walked pass as I saluted them with professional respect. This respect being very minimum. I simply did it to keep myself safe, no need to cause any unwanted trouble.

I practically jump out of my armour when Megatron would be strolling the halls, a rare occasion for me, but it has happened. He never did anything as he passed by, but really, who wouldn't be afraid of The Dark Lord? I always hope that he simply doesn't roam the halls when I am, I just pray to Primus that I'm lucky.

I then 'hmphed' as I realised that Commander Shockwave and I never met within the corridors of the warship, and this sudden realisation immediately made me quite upset. Why? Why of all Decepticons did he have to be the only one that I couldn't run into at least once? That alone would keep me content, but yet I know I would crave more. But still, I would be that one bit happier if I could be that close to him from time to time, I could nearly make a schedule out of it! But no, I'm just unlucky.

Another sigh emitted from my vocalizer, but it was much louder and more frustrated than my last. I looked around in slight curiosity as I continued my patrolling, and it soon became clear that I was approaching Commander Shockwave's lab. My spark began racing and I slowed my movements, looking to the door of his laboratory down the hallway. I stared at the large metal door, very well aware that the mech I wished to have as my own was behind it.

I continued my slow steps, eventually arriving right in front of the door. I then stopped, no reason behind my halt, I simply did it, and stared at the laboratory's door, listening carefully. How wonderful would it be if I could just waltz in and hug him from behind? To be able to lovingly kiss his helm as he began to nuzzle into me. I closed my optics slowly and sighed quietly, dropping my shoulders at the thought.

I couldn't hear anything all too well as I listened, I couldn't hear anything at all actually. The lab had more soundproof efficient walls due to the intense and loud work that ensued within the room on most occasions, so it was only logical, as Commander Shockwave would say. I leaned forward slightly, pressing my audio receptor against the frame of the metal door to try and listen further. Perhaps I could try and make out even a subtle sound? It was better than nothing.

But still, nothing could be heard as I listened. These walls were much more soundproof efficient than I thought. I huffed slightly and still tried to listen, pressing against the door frame even further as I desperately tried to hear what Commander Shockwave was doing. I was really surprised by how well the sound was being blocked out, but it really annoyed me. Why did all of the unlucky things such as this happen to me?

I then blinked as I realised I wasn't touching anything anymore. The touch of the door had suddenly disappeared. I also realised I was falling forward, having leaned on the door too hard that I depended my own weight on it.

"Oof!"

I cringed as I expected to fall flat onto the ground, but instead I fell into something and dropped my cannon onto the ground. Once I hit it I grasped onto it tightly to prevent my fall, wrapping my servos right around the unknown mass. I then felt the object I was holding move backwards slightly, it was then I realised that I had not fallen into something. But someone.

In the corner of my optic, I could see a flash of purple. My spark skipped a beat as I slowly looked up to see who it was, my optics catching quick glimpses of the details and features of this person's frame as I shifted my helm upwards. I know this body... Then finally, my optics were suddenly met by a bright red one.

This has got to be a sick nightmare or an amazing dream.

"Co-om-mander S-Sh-Shockwave..." I started with an extremely shaky voice, it even glitched slightly as I said it. He stared at me, somewhat wavered by what had happened and tilted his helm to the side. "What are you doing?" He asked bluntly, staring down at me with curiosity as his antennae flicked. He had opened the lab door whilst I was leaning on it; causing me to fall onto him. I was mortified but delighted at the same time. The chances of this happening were how low?

I stared at my obsession, completely frozen before I began to suddenly tremble, it got more hysteric as each moment passed.

My spark was beating hard in my chest, I'm sure he could both hear and feel it. My optics shook as my visor brightened, my lip plates trembling nervously. I'm holding him. I'm holding him! My entire frame, not just my faceplates, began to heat up immensely, if this continues my cooling fans were surely to kick in soon.

"I... I..." My processor was locked on that one word, not knowing what else to say to him. He shifted slightly, clearly growing uncomfortable by my tight grasp on him as he rested his servo on my shoulder to push me off. It then became clear to me that I had both my arms tightly wrapped around his hips, my servos latched onto his aft, my face right into his crotch plating...

"Oh my Primus..." I whispered as I suddenly let him go and fell onto the ground, aft thumping loudly on the floor. I was already growing extremely aroused by simply touching him; let alone actually having the opportunity to touch the areas I've dreamed of touching for so long, but my embarrassment was enough to make me focus on apologizing. "Sir, I... I am so so sorry. I-I didn't mean to - I was just, I eh..." I fumbled with my words as I covered my face with my servo and stood up. I then peeped at him through my digits and began walking backwards. He watched me, even though he had no face, I could tell he was extremely confused.

"I'm j-just going to go back to my duties. E-Excuse me, Commander Shockwave." I spoke quickly as I swiftly saluted him and picked up my gun and turned around to leave, but my departure was left short as I suddenly felt a servo grab my shoulder and pull me back. I turned to look at him and began to shake again as he started to speak. He was touching me?!

"It is quite alright, it would be illogical to linger on the matter. Now, I was about to leave here to find assistance from Knockout or one of the troops, but considering you are here, that will not be necessary." He finished as he let me go and motioned for me to follow him.

Is he serious?.. Is this... Is this a dream?! I simply gawked at him, not knowing what to do. Never did I ever think I would get to do this for real! This moment; I've dreamed of it at night, I wished for it to come true everyday! I tried to prevent myself from hitting my face, I wasn't sure if I was dreaming. But by Primus I hope I'm not!

I then hugged my cannon in excitement as he had his back turned to me. I'm with Commander Shockwave, alone, in the laboratory! I bit on my lip plates and prevented a squeal and entered the room further, following him like a hungry scraplet. The lab door closed as I entered the room further, it was then I realised I had Commander Shockwave all to myself. Just him and I, no one else.

Perfection.

I approached him from behind as he stood at his lab table, I was still nervous about all of this, but for some peculiar reason, I felt so at ease the longer I was around him. I observed him from behind, taking in all of his features with starving optics. I could take him right here and now.

The purple mech then turned to look at me and I suddenly began to tremble again. His optic was so intimidatingly gorgeous, I could never tell what he was truly thinking as I looked at it. "Come here." He asked as he averted his gaze back to what he had been doing. His voice sent a jolt through my frame and I practically felt myself melt. I could only imagine how beautiful his deep voice would be as he moaned. I shivered slightly at the enticing thought and quickly did as he said and stood right beside him.

My spark was bouncing in my chamber, tossing and turning, flipping and twisting. Well, that it was what it felt like. I was having a very hard time trying to comprehend what was happening right now. It was my forbidden dream come true. It would seem my excessive whining of not being able to be around Commander Shockwave had been acknowledged by Primus. Finally.

I then looked to what he was doing, he seemed to be working on a experiment for 'Project Predacon' or something. He had a few of their bones on the table, along with four large test tubes with a bundle of wires connected to them. I gazed at them before looking to Commander Shockwave once again. I wanted to ask what it was he wanted me to do, but I would not dare to pester him by constantly asking questions, so I refrained from doing so. I decided to simply bathe myself in his presence. I directed my visor towards what he was doing, but in reality, my optics were sideways and firmly locked on his frame. It didn't matter how long I stared at him for, he just always remained fascinating.

After a short time, he looked at me and pointed a sharp digit at the test tubes before speaking. "This experiment is simple and basic, you need no expertise in this so do not expect it to be complicated, rest assured." He started, his voice never failing to cause my optics to dim.

"I merely require you to observe these tubes whilst I electrically charge them with my computers. Use this datapad to note the results, you also may want to stand back slightly, for safety reasons. And do not interfere with the experiment, no matter what happens. Do you understand?" He finished solemnly as he picked up the datapad he was referring to from the table and handed it to me. This time I tried to not get distracted by him and focus my attention on doing my absolute best for him.

I quickly took it from his servo and nodded with determination. "Yes, of course sir!" I stood back as he insisted, I was trying my best to impress him, showing him that I was interested in what he was doing and that I was willing to do my part to the best of my ability. But I could tell he didn't particularly care...

He nodded and made his way over to the computers at the far end of the room. I now understood why he needed extra help, he couldn't really make an accurate observation when being that far away, not to mention he needed to keep the computers on for a certain amount of time, so running up and down the lab wasn't going to be very efficient. He simply couldn't do it alone, and I was perfectly happy with assisting him.

I stared at him as he walked. He clearly had a reason for doing this experiment, but he knew that telling a simple-minded vehicon about it was completely pointless. I did want to know, but though I'm not like other vehicons, I'm still not the smartest person around. He simply needed me to do this and then I would have to leave, I was beyond dreading that moment.

I then watched him as he approached and configured with the computers, I could not believe how many opportunities I was receiving here to just stare at him, to observe and analyse his entire frame from the front and behind. It was then I realised how much more vivid my 'dreams' were going to be. I suddenly shook those thoughts away and growled quietly too myself. Focus!

I simply cannot fail Commander Shockwave!

"Are you ready?" He called from afar and I jumped slightly at his voice. "O-Oh uhm, yes! Yes sir!" I cried back, looking to the datapad in my servo. I then read through it, it had a list.

"1.

2.

3.

4."

Well, a blank list, but it became clear to me that I had to write down whatever happens to the test tubes. I looked to the tubes and noticed that each one was also labelled with an individual number from one to four. Yeah, this was going to be easy, I can do this.

I then heard Commander Shockwave turn on the computers, sudden yellow electrical sparks shot through the tubes, causing me to flinch slightly and stand back further. But my love for Commander Shockwave was much too deep for me to be afraid of things such as that, I am much too determined to succeed. If only to impress him.

The first test tube began to boil, and it seemed that that's all it was going to do, so I quickly typed that into the first space labelled for test tube number one. I made sure to keep an optic on it though as I moved on. Test tube number two wasn't reacting. At all. So I made a quick note of that and continued with my observations.

Test tube number three was... Changing colour? All the tubes were yellow formally, but this tube was changing from yellow to blue? Well, I am certain Commander Shockwave knows the logic behind this, so I simply typed this reaction into the datapad.

Test tube number four was scaring the living frag out of me! It was boiling like a terrorcon and changing different colours consistently. I stood back as this occurred and noted this within the datapad, remembering that Commander Shockwave had ordered me not to interfere with the experiment no matter what, so I certainly wasn't going to.

These reactions continued to ensue before Commander Shockwave finally shut down the computers and made his way over to me. I began to add every little detail to everything I wrote according to the experiment, wishing to impress Commander Shockwave even slightly. I had to my absolute best. He approached me and extended his servo, clearly awaiting for me to give him the datapad. I handed it to him and watched as he read through it, looking from the datapad to the test tubes.

"Hmm," I fidgeted with my servo as he read through it, not feeling certain by what he meant by that sound. Oh it's obvious; he hates it. I knew it. He hate- "This is excellent, I was not expecting you to explain this so vividly. Even Knockout does not dwell so accurately on these matters." He looked up at me, his antennae twitching as I stared at him in shock. Not only did I do well, but I exceeded his expectation! In other words; I impressed him! He's actually pleased with what I did!

"R-Really Commander Shockwave?.." I asked out of complete surprise, my excitement couldn't be held much longer. "Indeed. This is most impressive. Not to mention I was observing you as you made the analysis. You were very quick and sharp with what you wrote, you were clearly making sure to insert the data with absolute precision and accuracy. Which is exactly what you did. Have you ever worked with scientific endeavors before?" He asked as he placed the datapad onto the lab table and looked at me intently. He was watching me?I could not help but feel both honoured and flattered by that. I simply shook my helm at his question, my face plates heating up from his compliment.

"I see. Then you must hold some form of an interest in it, perhaps you do your own research in your own time?" He continued to question me, clearly what I wrote really surprised him. He just has no idea how happy he is making me right now. "An i-interest? Well, I do like science but I... Wouldn't say I have read anything too scientific before. My interest really is j-just..." You. That's what I wanted to say to him, but I simply rubbed my helm and shrugged. I've never been so thankful for this visor and mask.

He tilted his helm to the side, I could oddly tell that he was still curious but he brushed it off and nodded at me. "I understand I suppose. Excuse my excessive questioning but would you be willing to join me with my experiments? I can relinquish you from your usual duties and you may assist me in the lab everyday. Knockout is my assistant, but he hardly comes pass being an adequate one, not to mention he has work to do as a medic. You seem to have the skill, so long... As I..." He slowed his words before stopping completely, he obviously couldn't continue when I had just fainted and passed out on the floor.

Oh David... *Facepalm.* Well, his dream finally came true!~ Well, part of it anyway!

A big thank you to those who have reviewed, I'm glad you are all enjoying this so far!
