Here is the next chapter, I hope that you like it! :-)


"That was nice. Thanks for inviting me Blue." Nova said, entering the med bay after their drive.

"My pleasure, I had fun." Bluestreak said.

"Well I'd better get back to work on that antivirus." She said.

"See you around." He said. As he walked away, he began feeling a dizzy. "I probably just need some energon" he told himself. He then started off to the rec room. Just when he walked through the door, Ironhide got up from one of the tables and came over to him. Then he placed his arm around Bluestreak's shoulder and said "I heard you just went' on a date with Nova."

"What? Oh, it wasn't really a date 'Hide. We just went on a drive."Bluestreak said.

"Well you've got ta tell me 'bout this 'drive'. Come on let's get some energon." Ironhide said. He filled two cubes, brought them over to the table that he was sitting at before, gave one of them to Bluesteak, and gestured for him to sit. Once the two bots were seated, Ironhide asked Bluestreak how the drive was.

"It was fine. Hey, have you ever seen Nova's alt mode?" Bluestreak asked him.

Ironhide just shook his head and said, "No, why?"

"It's really cool." Blustreak said.

"That's nice, but what did you two talk about?" he asked.

"Ummm, we didn't actually talk to each other."Bluestreak said sheepishly.

"You of all mechs, didn't talk? At all? Not even one word." Ironhide said, sounding extremely surprised.

"Nope"

"Mech, what is wrong with you?"He asked as he lightly hit Bluestreak upside the head.

"What the Pit was that for?!" Bluestreak asked him, rubbing the back of his head where Ironhide had hit him.

"To knock some sense into ya! First of all, you didn't speak. That's already insane in its own sense. Second of all, you like this femme, right?" he asked him.

"Well I wouldn't say like, I mean she's a good friend. I don't think there's anything more than that. Not that I would mind if there was! But I don't know if she wants there to be anything more than friendship between us. If I started to pursue her and she didn't; want anything more that would be awkward so I didn't think that I should. Again, not that I would mind if-" Bluestreak said before he was cut off by Ironhide's servo over his mouth.

"I'm gonna say this again and this time I want a one word answer, alright?"Ironhide asked.

"Mmhm" Bluestreak said while nodding, Ironhide's servo still over his mouth.

"Good. Do you like Nova?"He asked slowly, making sure Bluestreak got every word.

Bluestreak hesitated before saying, "Yes".

"Then why don't you tell her, or at least show some interest!" Ironhide said.

"I don't know! I guess it's 'cause I'm a dumbaft!" Bluestreak shot back. All of the sudden, he felt a sharp pain in his processor. After a few seconds, the pain went away for the most part, but it left him with a bad migraine. He offlined his optics and pinched the bridge of his nasal ridge to try and get more of the pain go away.

"You okay youngling?" Ironhide asked him worriedly.

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's just a headache, It'll pass." Bluestreak said tiredly.

"Alright, anyway like I was saying, you need to show her that you like her. You need to take charge and say to her-" said Ironhide before Bluestreak stopped him mid-sentence.

"Ironhide, as much as would love to talk to you about what I'm doing wrong with my relationship with Nova and how I suck when it comes femmes, but my head feels like it's about to explode and I would really just like to go back to my quarters. Thanks for the energon." Bluestreak said. He got up from his chair but quickly regretted because his knees buckled and the pain in his processor came back and it was even stronger than before. It was so bad, it was disabling. All he could do was lay curled up on the rec room floor holding his head.

"Youngling!"Ironhide cried out. "Don't worry, I'll call a medic!"

-We need a medic in the rec room ASAP, and bring a gurney!-

-Ironhide!? What's the matter!?- Came Nova's voice through the com link.

-It's Blue, he collapsed on the rec room floor!-

-I'm on my way- She said.

In less than two minutes, Nova was in entering the rec room, pushing a gurney. She made her way over to Bluestreak and injected him with a sedative and a pain killer. Within five minutes, Bluestreak had fallen unconscious. Ironhide picked him up and placed him on the gurney and Nova pushed him to the med bay as quickly as she could.


Bluestreak woke up a while later in the med bay, the pain in his head reduced to almost nothing. He looked over to the console and saw Nova working.

"Nova" he said to her.

She turned around and said, "Hey Blue how are you feeling?"

"Fine I guess." He said. There was another all too familiar period of silence between them. "This is it?" he asked her.

"You've been checked into the med bay if that's what you mean."

"Yeah, figured." He said sadly.

"I'm sorry Blue" she said sympathetically.

Bluestreak just stared at the ceiling of the med bay and all he could think about was how the ceiling could very well be the last thing that he ever saw.
