Chapter ten: The boyfriend
"Come on, Mom! I'm going to be late!" I yelled from the front door.
"Alright, Sonny. I'll be there in a second. I just have to finish my make-up!" She exclaimed.
"Well, hurry up! Skyler is waiting for me!" I stated.
"I'm here, Sonny let's go." She said as she walked up and grabbed her car keys.
"Yes, I'll go get in the car!"
"Hold your horses, Sonny! Is that…lip gloss? You remember what I said about kissing, don't you?" she asked.
"Yes I remember! No kissing until you get married. That way it's special and blah, blah, blah!" I moaned.
"Sweetheart, I'm doing this because I want your wedding kiss to be as special as mine was!" she said as she remembered kissing dad on their wedding day.
"Look, I'm not even wearing it to get a kiss, anyway! Skyler said that he had something special for me when I get to our date. Which I'm going to be late for if we don't hurry!" I stated as I dragged her to the car.
"Okay, calm down! I'll drive you!" She said laughing as she unlocked the car.
"Thanks, mom!" I said as I hugged her. I jumped out of the car and started to walk towards the fast food restaurant. I looked around inside and I saw Skyler waiting at a window seat.
"Excuse me, sir, but this table is meant for two. My I sit down with you." I said mocking a waiter's voice.
"Sonny, you made it!" Skyler said as he stood up and hugged me.
"Of course I made it! I wouldn't miss this date for the world!" I told him. I looked out the window and I saw Bulkhead and Breakdown going head-to-head outside.
Skyler thought I saw something and was about to turn his head to it, but I got his attention by sitting down.
"Why don't we go up to the counter and order?" I tried to distract him from what was outside.
"Okay, Sonny." He said as he held my hand. I blushed.
We walked up to the counter and outside the door were Ratchet, Bulkhead, Breakdown and Starscream fighting.
"You know what, Skyler? I just noticed the glow of the sunlight shining through the window. Let's go back!" I said as I pulled him back to the table. We sat down again.
"You know what, Sonny? Who cares about food? Let's just talk." He stated.
I then noticed the fight again.
"Sure….talk!" I said as I pulled down the blinders to block our view of the fight.
"I thought you liked the sun shining." He stated.
"Uh….um…it's too bright. It's…uh…hurting my eyes!" I said.
"Okay…about that special thing I had for you." He said as he moved closer to me. I felt like we were magnets getting closer and closer. Then my Mom's words popped in my head…UGH!
"Hey, I'm kind of hungry. How about we order now?" I stood up. Skyler fell on the table.
We ordered and Skyler wanted to eat outside. So we sat down at a red table outside and ate.
"I'm glad we could get together. I was hoping your mom would let you go. I know how she is!" he said to me.
"You have no idea how relaxing it is to get out of the cluttered house full of tons of kids!" I said.
I looked around and there was no Decepticon or Autobot in sight!
I looked back at Skyler and his pupils shrank and he was pointing at something behind me.
"What is it? Is it my hair?" I worried.
"Sp…spi…SPIDER!" he yelled.
"You're scared of a little spider!" I turned around and looked where he was pointing and saw a huge robot spider!
"Oh scrap! RUN! RUN, SKYLER!" I screamed.
We ran into the woods behind the restaurant hoping we would lose the giant spider Decepticon. Skyler and I got tired of running so we hid under a tree.
"What the heck was that thing?" Skyler shouted.
"Shh…she'll hear us. It's a Decepticon." I told him.
"Like on that show?" he asked.
"Yeah, only REAL!" I said.
The Decepticon lifted the tree and found us. We tried to run, but she caught us with her web nets.
"You don't know how much trouble you have caused, girl!" she said to me.
"Look, spider lady you can take me, but don't hurt Skyler!" I told her.
"My name is Arachnid! And don't fret, I wasn't, but now that I know he is of importance to you, I think you'd enjoy watching your mate suffer!" she stated.
"No! Skyler, I'm sorry I got you caught up in all of this! I never wanted you to find out so that you would be safe, but now…" I cried. "Arachnid, if you put one finger on him, I will NEVER forgive you!" I shouted.
"Sonny, at least we'll die together." Skyler said. We both smiled at each other.
"Would you two stop? Don't you realize that you'll die in a matter of seconds!" Arachnid yelled.
"No they're not!" A voice said from the shadows. It was Optimus and Ratchet!
Arachnid growled in defeat and left.
"Are you both alright?" Ratchet asked as he helped us out of the goo.
"We're fine." I stated.
"Hey, Sonny I thought I said that you shouldn't go to parties without me!" A voice yelled from Optimus' shoulder.
"Aurora, I don't think that spider slaying counts!" I laughed.
"Whoa…is that…?" Skyler was shocked as he looked up at Optimus.
"Yep, Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots!" I stated.
Skyler fainted.
"Oh, boy!" I groaned.
When Skyler woke up, he was inside Ratchet's vehicle mode with me. We both were sitting on opposite window seats.
"Sonny, I can't believe I'm with the Autobots right now!" Skyler said in awe.
"Yeah, but you only met two. There's five total. Once we get back to base, you can meet the others." I stated.
"Cool! I'm glad I'm with you, Sonny." Skyler said sweetly.
"Me, too." I agreed.
We both leaned towards each other.
This is it! Our first kiss! I thought.
Once we were face-to-face, Ratchet tightened our seatbelts to separate us.
"Safety first!" he said.
"So now there are four children. Interesting! We'll have to keep a look out for these children." Megatron said.
