Chapter seven

(Three year time skip)

"Karen up now," dad yelled making me moan as I crawled half-heartedly out of my bed.

I quickly showered and brushed my teeth before I left my bathroom and got changed. Looking in my mirror on my closet door, I pulled my hair up in a low pony tail before putting on an Elmo top and a pair of black skinny jeans before leaving my bedroom. Dad was talking to Prowl on his commlink as I grabbed a piece of toast and a bottle of orange juice.

"Bye dad," I said as I left the apartment to meet Sunny.

The hanger was half empty as most of the residents where training, sleeping, on monitor duty or was on patrol.

"Morning Sunstreaker," I said. "Ready to go?"

"It's too early for this," he mumbled as he transformed and I climbed into the driving seat.

"At least you don't have to listen to boring teachers all day," I told him.

"True, true," he replied.

I laughed as he stopped at a red light. Looking around me I had to smile as I messed with my necklace which was the autobot symbol I had gotten for my last birthday from Wheel jack and Preceptor. It had a tracking device just in the cons kidnapped me which they like doing. I watched the world go by as I pretended to drive.

"Hi sunny, do I have to go to school today?" I asked him.

"Ya dad will offline me if I let you miss one of ya end of semester tests," he replied. "And besides you only have two hours today."

I grumbled something as we pulled up in the school parking lot. I could feel the stares of some of the students on me as they looked at my "car".

"No playing up today," I told Sunny. "Otherwise you will find yourself with pink paint covered in glitter and flowers covering every part of you and no way to turn back to yellow until I say so. Got it."

"Yes madam," he replied. "But I will bug you."

"Just keep me sane on the comm link before I decide to kill someone k."

He chuckled in agreement as I left him and made my way up the steps to the main building. It was the second to last day and I had to smile as I recalled the last three years in my head. Three years of living with the bots, pranking dad, Ratchet, Prowl and Red Alert ( can't prank Prime he gets you back at your own game), having sneaked out of the base to get away from dad and the others with Jazz, both sets of twins and Bumblebee as well as having parties at Christmas, and birthdays.

"Hi Karen," Stephanie said.

I smiled at my friend as we made our way to our last exam- World History.

"Silence please," the teacher Miss Leaves said. "No talking in this exam or face no grades at the end of it."

I sighed as I flipped through the question booklet as the two hours began.

Two hours later

"That was a drag," I complained as I got into Sunny. "So what's the plan for the rest of the day?"

"How about we go back to base and get the others to have a beach party with us?" he offered.

"Oh so you're not going to care if you get sand in your wheels or gears," I teased him.

"Watch it," he teased back.

I laughed as we pulled into the main hanger of the base. Sides and Jazz where talking to each other and I nodded at them before my dad, Optimus, Prowl and a few others entered the room.

"Hi Optimus is everyone busy later?" I asked him.

"No," he replied. "Why do you ask?"

"Well if because everyone has been stressed out lately I was thinking we have a beach party where we just have fun and be ourselves," I replied to him. "Whatcha think?"

"Of course," he replied. "But we will be on high alert just in case the cons do try something."

I smiled before Optimus told the bots what to do.

The beach was two miles away from the base. The soldiers that had some free time had joined us and I was helping her to made salad and to buy the BBQ food. Both Will and Epps were setting up the grills as Jazz found some music that we could all dance to. The twins had disappeared and dad was patrolling the area with prowl and ratchet for any con signatures and sightings.

"So what's going on with you and Sunny?" Sarah asked me.

"Nothing. "Why?"

"Because he is always with you and not many of the humans on base get his undivided attention all the time," she replied. "And not only that but most of the femmes on base can't get him to date them."

"I thought that the spark bond was permit," I said. "Just out of curiosity why does Chormia hate me so much?"

Sarah gave a sigh before she looked at me.

"She has a thing for you dad," she replied. "Before your mother or you for that matter came into his life, Chormia believed that she would spark bond with him and that they would have sparklings. Your father never returned her feelings and when your mother came, she got jealous and tried to make it seem like your mother had a boyfriend already but your father wouldn't believe her. Before Helen and Ironhide could admit anything about their feelings, Chormia had had enough and made it seem that Ironhide was in love with her by forcing him to kiss her. Helen saw it and ran from the base. Jolt who was her guardian was angry at them both and followed her and wouldn't let any of us go any were near her especially Ironhide."

"What you talking about?" jolt asked.

"Why Chormia doesn't like Karen," Sarah replied to him. "You can tell the rest."

"Two weeks had gone by and Helen was always crying. I wasn't letting anyone near her until Optimus came. He ordered me to let him speak to her. I said he could but if he upsets her even more then she already was, he leaves straight away. After he had talked to her, she went back to base and wouldn't speak to Ironhide. Chormia was looking smugly but when she tried to get Hide to talk to her he blasted her a bit and went away fuming," he said. "Helen had seen it and had been confused so she came to see me about it. When I told her about the spark bond and that she had developed one with Hide she wasn't so sure so Ratchet decided to step in and have a go at them both. Optimus and Ratchet both put them in the brig and wouldn't let them out until they sorted it out. Take them about twenty minutes. Chormia was furious but Optimus had set down the law that we don't harm humans. They got married and you appeared nine months later and they never looked back."

I had to smile at that before dad and Ratchet came back. The twins appeared carrying a boom box and another two boxes that they wouldn't tell anyone what it was. Before any of us could ask them, Jazz had started the music and we all smiled as the bots activated their holograms. Some of the most professional bots- Optimus, Ratchet, Prowl and dad- just sat down and watched the rest of us. Annie had grabbed my hand and we both danced on the make-shift dance floor. It was fun as we ate unhealthy food that Ratchet was grumbling about.

"Eat some," I told him. "Don't dis the food until you try it."

He mumbled something about it before he pinched couple of my fries that were dosed in ketchup. I stared at him as he ate it before Sunny grabbed my spare hand and dad took my plate as we both went off to dance. He watched me as I grabbed Annie's hand again. She laughed and I had to smile before Jolt stepped in and grabbed my hand. She went away with Will dancing with her.

"So you okay bout what you heard?" he asked me.

"Yeah," I replied. "Just I guess after three years of me being here she still won't say anything to me."

He nodded before he nodded at Sunny who stepped in to dance with me again. He smiled at me as the song changed.

"So this is your idea of fun," he said.

"Ya should have known that by now," I replied. "Let's get Jazza to do karaoke and we get the boring bots to join in."

"Good idea," he replied. "But I need to talk to you first."

Leading me away from the others he took me to the edge of the ocean where the others couldn't hear us.

"Has Ratchet told you about the spark bond policy?" he asked me.

"Yeah," I replied. "Not a conversation I'm going to forget in a hurry."

He sighed as we walked. I frowned as he stopped and looked towards the setting sun. I followed his graze as he struggled to speak.

"Sunny what's wrong?" I asked him. "Your my best friend tell me please."

He looked at me his blue eyes not as intense as his real optics. I placed a hand on his shoulder. The next thing I knew I was being pressed against the cliff face as Sunstreaker leaned down to kiss me. Shock reeled up in my body and my hands turned into fists as I punched him away from me. He looked at me in shock holding his jaw as I stared at him in disbelieve.

"Are you out of your mind?" I yelled at him. "What the fuck were you thinking?"

"Karen please," he pleaded, reaching out to me

"Don't touch me," I growled before I ran off.

I unlocked my apartment as I ran into my bedroom and collapsed on my bed.

"You okay?" Sarah asked coming in.

"Sunny kissed me," I replied.

"He did WHAT!" dad yelled coming in the room. "Stay here. I'm going to kill that piece of slag."

"Ratchet stop him before he does any bad damage," I told him.

"You going to tell me what happened?" Sarah asked me.

I shook my head at her as I went to put my pjs on and go to sleep with no worries, trying to ignore the stabbing pains in my stomach.
