Chapter 7: United in Love

POV Megatronus

Neonna and I have been a couple for three years now, and I believe today is the day to propose to the love of my life. Today is our anniversary of when we first met. I already asked Neonna to meet me in the park that hosted the Spring Floral Festival three years ago. All I have to do is buy the perfect ring for my love, which I've been saving my money for her ring and our marriage for about two years now.

I asked Shadowwave and Thunderdash to meet me at a jewelry store that was near the Rocketball stadium. The two were standing outside the store waiting for me.

I saw Thunderdash tapping his foot on the ground as he said, "You sure took your lovely time getting here."

"I had to tell Neonna to meet me at the park this afternoon" I said to my impatient friend.

"Well, we're all here now. Let's go in and find that perfect ring for your true love, Mega" Shadowwave said to me.

I nodded as we went into the store. We were greeted by a silver blue mech.

"How may I help you gentlemen?" he said to us.

"We're here to help our friend pick out his engagement ring for his girlfriend" Thunderdash said as he elbowed me teasingly.

The silver blue mech's optics widened as he said, "Well, congratulations, Sir. Let's go find the perfect ring for your future sparkmate."

So for the first fifteen minutes, we had been looking at all of the beautiful engagement rings behind the glass case. They were all pretty I have to admit, but most of them didn't suit Neonna's personality. That's when I saw the perfect ring for my love. I saw a silver ring with a thick black lining on the edge with two rows of small light blue colored diamonds with a sapphire diamond shape stone in the middle of the ring.

"How much does that ring over there cost?" I asked while pointing at the beautiful ring.

The mech looked to where I was pointing and replied, "That ring costs $150.99."

I nodded my head in reply at the good deal of the cost of the ring as I said, "Okay, I'll buy it."

The clerk nodded his head as he went to go get the key to unlock the case. The guys elbowed me as I purchased the ring for my love.

POV Neonna

I waited at the front entrance of the park where we had our first date. Mega told me to meet him here at three o'clock, but it is already ten minutes passed three. Oh I hope that he hasn't forgotten. But why should I worry? He usually makes it on time.

I decided to sit on the bench under a lavender cyber blossom tree to wait for him. I waited until someone covered my optics from behind me.

"Guess who?" said a mech's voice.

I smiled as I recognized the voice. I giggled as I said, "Oh Megatronus." He uncovered my optics as I turned around to see his smiling face. "You are such a juvenile at times" I said before we kissed each other for a brief moment.

Then I got up off the bench so that Megatronus and I could stroll around the beautiful park. We talked for a long time about recent events, events that are coming up, and bringing up memories from the past.

We strolled around the park for about an hour now until we came to a fountain surrounded by beautiful metallic lilies. Megatronus and I sat on the edge of the fountain. We talked some more before I noticed that he was hiding something behind his back.

"What are you hiding, Mega?" I asked as I tried to get a glimpse of the item that was behind him.

"Oh, it's a present for my mother" he replied to me as he moved it even further behind his back.

I was still not convinced with his answer, but I just shrugged it off. We talked for a while before Megatronus moved a little bit closer to me.

"Neonna" he said shyly.

"Yes?" I replied back to him.

"I was wondering about what you have planned for the future," he said.

I looked at him curiously as I asked, "The future?"

"Yeah, like are you going to expand your flower shop or may be owning a house of your own," he said to me.

I smiled as I asked, "Why do you want to know?"

He shrugged as he said, "I was just curious."

I looked at him for a while before I said, "Well, I guess it would be nice to get my own place to spend the rest of my life in, but I think I'll just wait a little bit longer before I move out of my father's place."

He nodded before he asked, "What about us?"

I looked at him curiously as I asked, "What about us?"

He paused for a moment before he took my servos in his hands and said, "Neonna, we been together for three years now. You're the only femme in the world that I have fallen in love with at first sight, and I want to spend the rest of my life with my beautiful rose."

"Megatronus are you..." I said before he cut me off.

"Neonna," he said as he grabbed the black box, which he said was for his 'mother', behind him and opened it up to reveal a beautiful ring. I gasped as he took the ring out of the box and put it on my right servo ring finger.

Lubricant started to form in my optics as I looked at him. He looked into my optics and said lovingly, "Will you be my sparkmate?"

My spark leaped for joy while the lubricant started to fall from my optics as I hugged him lovingly and replied, "Yes." He smiled at me sincerely before we kissed for a few seconds.

After we left the park, Megatronus walked me home. I told my father about marrying Mega, but he already knew because Megatronus went to him a few days ago to ask him if he could have my hand in marriage. Of course my father said yes to Megatronus.

All that we have to do now is plan our wedding date and bring both family and friends to this happy event.

*Flash forward to the wedding day a few months later*

POV Megatronus

I was pacing back and forth in the groom's room as I waited for everyone to come to our wedding. Shadowwave and Thunderdash were in my room to help me get ready for my big day.

"Mega, just chill lax already. Ugh, you're making my circuits spin with you walking back and forth!" Thunderdash said as he held his head.

I stopped where I was and replied, "Sorry, I'm just a bit nervous."

"Why? Don't you love Neonna?" Thunderdash said.

"I hope you're not getting cold feet, Mega," Shadowwave mumbled as he looked at me curiously.

I turned to them and said, "Of course I love her! Do you think that if I didn't love I wouldn't have asked her to be my beloved sparkmate!?"

Both Thunderdash and Shadowwave smirked before they said, "Then what are you waiting for then?"

I was stunned for a moment before I said, "I….Good point. It's time for me to upgrade and become a man for Neonna's sake! Yes, I can do this!"

*At the altar*

"I can't do this," I said nervously.

"Ow!" I said as I felt Shadowwave elbow me.

He then murmured, "You better not bail on her."

I nervously stood at the altar before the minister said, "Megatronus, are you getting cold feet already?"

I turned to him and replied, "No, why do you ask?"

He looked at me and said, "You look nervous."

"No, I'm not nervous at all. I'm just a bit warm in here, that's all" I replied to him before I asked Neonna's maid of honor, "You don't think that she'd changed her mind in marrying me, do you?"

She looked at me and replied, "Honey, I've never seen her more in love with anyone else but you. Besides she'll come down the aisle when it's time. So don't you worry about it."

"But everyone is already here. Can't we just get this wedding ceremony started with already?" I said to her.

Shadowwave looked annoyed before he elbowed me in the side again.

"Ouch!" I said as I turned to my best man.

"Pull yourself together!" he said as he narrowed his optics at me.

"Would you stop doing that! You don't know what I'm going through" I retorted to him.

He looked at me before he lifted up his left servo and replied, "I know exactly what you're going through."

I looked at him sadly before I said, "Sorry Shad, I guess I...I'm a bit anxious about this."

Shadowwave look at me before he slapped my shoulder and said, "It's alright, Mega. Besides, we haven't been standing here that long. She'll be on her way before you even know it."

"You're sure? Because this feels like an eternity," I said to him.

"Tell me about it. I've been standing up here for like seven whole minutes!" said Thunderdash.

Shadowwave turned to Thunderdash and said to him, "You're not helping." Then we all heard the bride's song playing as he said, "Quite now, here she comes."

The huge doors opened as three young sparkling flower girls skipped up the aisle as they spread flower petals all over the place. Then I saw her. She was standing in the doorway for a few seconds before she slowly but elegantly walked up the aisle to the altar with her father guiding her along the way.

My spark skipped a beat at how beautiful she looked. I blushed a little as she came up to me with a smile on her faceplate. I smiled back at her as I gently grabbed her servos.

The minister cleared his pipes before he said, "Mechs and femmes, we are here today to celebrate the union of Neonna and Megatronus." He turned to Neonna and said, "Do you Neonna, take this mech to be your lawfully wedded husband. In sickness and in health, till death do you part?"

"I do," she said as she looked up at me with those gorgeous optics as I slowly became hypnotized in their beauty.

The minister then turned to me and said, "And do you Megatronus, take this femme to be your lawfully wedded wife. In sickness and in health, till death do you part?"

I snapped out of my daze as I replied, "I do."

He then looked at the ring bearer and said, "May I have the rings?"

The ring bearer came up to the altar as he presented our rings to the minister. He then gave us the rings. Neonna put my ring on my left server ring finger as I put her ring on her left ring finger.

"Then by the power vested in me, I pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride," the minister said.

I kissed Neonna lovingly as everyone clapped and cheered for us.

Once the ceremony was over, we went into the recession and celebrated our marriage for the rest of the evening. Neonna and I slowly danced together under the starry night sky.

She sighed lovingly as I kissed her on the forehead and asked, "You getting tired, my love?"

She nodded as she replied, "It's been a long day."

"Yes it has been," I agreed with her as we stopped dancing to tell our parents and the few friends that stayed that we are going to retire for the night.

They said their goodbyes and wishes for us in our married life. We left and started to go to our new home where we would spend the rest of our lives together at last.
