Just a little short blurb between Carly and Major Lennox. Just felt like putting it in here…

Enjoy! All reviews are welcome!

XOXOX

Now that Optimus has left and was now out of sight, Carly shut the front door behind her as she leaned against it. However, her thoughts were quickly broken as Lennox greeted her.

"What the hell do you think you are doing! How could you just decide to be one of them!" Lennox angrily asked as he had a good grip on Carly as he had her pinned against the front door.

For just a second, Carly just looked at him in discuss. He was a guy, there was no way in hell that he would possibly understand. Carly couldn't help but to think to herself as she pushed her way out of Lennox's grip. The only being in this universe who fully understood her was Optimus. And, maybe even then he knew too much. But, then again he was one of the only beings who ever paid attention to her outside of her family. And granted Carly considered Lennox to be one of her only close friends…but, she knew he wouldn't understand.

"You wouldn't understand Will." Was all Carly said as she began to walk away.

"What do you mean I wouldn't understand!" Lennox angrily questioned as he forcefully brought her back to him.

"What do you think it means! It means you wouldn't understand…"

"Carly!" Lennox replied as he stood there facing her.

Okay, so maybe he wouldn't understand why in the world Carly gave up her life to become one of them. In fact, he hated to admit it but the whole idea just seemed to be crazy. What in the world could have been so bad for Carly to want to give up her life? It just didn't make any sense to him, which is why he desperately wanted to find out what was going on with Carly.

"Do you think that it was easy for me to make that decision! Just because it looked like it was easy…doesn't mean that it was Will!..."

"Then why did you just give up your life to become one of them!" Lennox flat out questioned just because he wanted answers.

Standing there in front of Will who she considered to be one of her best friends, she could tell that he wanted answers. In fact, she knew he did. She knew she wanted to answer him, to tell him the real reasons why she gave up her life to become one of them…but to mainly be with Optimus. She wanted to tell him everything, but if she wanted to tell him everything…then why did she hesitate to even speak, to even make any kind of movement? She knew why, she knew that maybe if she gave Will the exact reasons why, she was afraid of what he would think of her. If she was crazy, weird…or maybe even stupid…which is why she hesitated to tell him the truth. But, she knew deep down in her heart, she knew what she felt, she knew this was real…and she felt anything but crazy or stupid, which was what finally brought Carly to answer him.

"I don't know Will…I mean…I guess…I just fell for Optimus…"

"That's the only reason why you gave up your life, was because you fell for Optimus!" Lennox dumbfoundidly questioned as Carly noticed that he looked over at her as if she were crazy. And that right there was one of the reasons why she never wanted to explain anything to Lennox.

"See, I knew you wouldn't understand." Carly replied as she began to walk away from him for about the 3rd or 4th time.

And yet again he brought her back because he wasn't done talking to her.

"Carly, I'm sorry. You're right, maybe I don't understand. But, there's just gotta be more to it than you just fell for Optimus! Carly, you can talk to me about anything, you know that…especially this, but…only if you want to…"

She knew he was sincere and that he cared deeply about her, about why she did this to herself. And, being that he was one of her best friends…maybe he even had the right to know what was going on. And, seeing the sincerity Lennox had within him, Carly finally felt that it was time to let him know exactly why she did what she did…no matter what he might think of her in the end. Carly thought to herself as she just practically began to spill out the truth.

"Optimus is the only one outside my family to even show any kind of affection towards me. He's the only one to ever give me the time of day, or to even smile at me for that matter. I know its crazy to fall for Optimus Prime…I know, but…after constantly being let down, after constantly being disappointed and just plain feeling like there's no one out there for me…well, it just happened! I can't even explain it Will! It just happened! It happened so uncontrollably that it was perfect! I hate to say it…but…he's everything I've ever wanted, ever hoped for, ever dreamed about, and…he's just everything I ever wanted…I wouldn't change it for anything because I know how he feels towards me…I know its crazy…but, to me…it's not. Its just not! I will admit that I am in love with Optimus Prime and I have just come to accept it…" Carly finally explained.

After hearing that, after hearing why Carly has done what she's done…there was a heavy silence between her and Will. And, after hearing that…he just couldn't believe it. If only he had been around, if only he had ever told her the truth about how he feels towards her…then maybe she wouldn't feel like that, she would have never done what she has done. Lennox couldn't help but to think as the only thing he could do was to just hold her tightly in his arms.

"God, this is all my fault!" Was all Lennox said out of the clear blue.

"What? How is any of this your fault?" Carly questioned as she couldn't understand why he would say something like that.

"Because, because I never…ever told you how I feel about you. If I would have, you would have never given up your life to become one of them! I've been attracted to you ever since we met. I've just never said anything because of what I do…because I'm part of NEST. I've just never thought I would be able to keep a relationship with you because of what I do. And now…you're paying for it. Your paying the price from me never telling you the truth…"

"Will, its not your fault. It's no ones fault. What's been done has been done…you can't change it…at least not now, nor would I ever want to. I'm sorry Will, my heart…or should I say my spark is with Optimus now." Carly tried to explain the best she could with how she truly felt.

Lennox knew Carly was right, but that didn't mean that he didn't feel how he felt.

"No, I guess you can't change anything. But, if this had to happen…if you were meant to be with Optimus…there isn't anyone in the universe I would want you to be with. At least if you are with Optimus…I know you will be safe, safe from anything…and, I know he will always watch over you." Lennox told her, in which he meant every word after his talk with Optimus from only just a little while ago.

After hearing Lennox explain himself, Carly almost couldn't help but to melt into his arms. Even though this was a really weird conversation to have, Carly was glad she had it. After she had talked to Lennox about this whole thing, she almost couldn't help but to almost feel a little better. But, not to the point where she would take back what she's done…nothing will ever want to make her do that. But, at least she knew that Lennox understood her more. And, to Carly…that was all she really wanted…was for him to understand.

"Thanks Will. I'm glad you understand…well at least…maybe…kind of understand. And, I appreciate the fact that you care enough to be concerned about me…its no wonder why you're one of my best friends outside of Optimus. However, I really should be getting to bed. It's been a long, long day…" Carly told him as she looked up at him through half closed eyes. In fact, she didn't know how she kept them open at this point.

"You're welcome. And, don't ever…ever be afraid to come to me for anything ever again!" Lennox told her.

"I won't…goodnight Will." Carly told him as she finally made her way towards the stairs to where she would finally be able to go to sleep.

"Goodnight Carly…I will be right here if you need me. Get some rest." Lennox told her as he watched her make her way up the stairs.

With Carly now upstairs, Lennox practically collapsed on the couch himself. Even though he almost understood where Carly was coming from, he just couldn't believe what had happened. In fact, he almost felt like this was all a crazy dream and that he was going to wake up tomorrow to a normal life. But he knew better. He knew that wasn't going to happen. This was all way too real. Their races were united. They have been for quite some time. And by the power of the Matrix, Carly was united with them.
