Chapter 18: First Love
I was alone…
A ghost around other kids
Since I was at Kindergarten, I was nicknamed Ghost Girl or Paper or Mute. I didn't socialize with the other kids. I always watch from the background as they played from the beginning of the breaks till the end and when it's time to go home, I would watched them getting picked up into their mom or dad's arms. I was the one who always getting picked up by my parents. I even started to walk back home, even though it's a ten mile walk.
I don't care if I got ran over by a car when crossing the road or get kidnapped when walking back home. The people around me would never even realize that I'm with them.
That suffering ended when I met him,
Christopher Ronald.
He was very sweet and nice to me, the only one that has been nice to me since I was seven.
I would do anything to see that smile on his lips. The smile that could also brought a smile up to my lips. I wouldn't mind seeing those smiles every day; somehow it would warm my heart. What is this feeling? What is the warmness that is inside of me? Why did my heartbeat go faster when I'm around him?
Could this feeling be… love?
"Hey! You got another A+!"
Chris chirped happily as he hugged me. I blushed a bit as I nodded. He puts me down to my own feet and grinned happily. He held the test paper in his right hand while his left hand was on his hip. "This is like… the third time in a row that you got an A+! I'm so proud of you, Jen!"
I smiled warmly at him, "T-Thank you, Mr. Chris…."
He pouted a little and crossed his arms over his chest, "Aww Jen… I was only joking when I said that you can call me with a 'Mr.', you can call me by my nickname, Chris!" He jabbed his thumb to himself.
I giggled. "O-Okay… Just for you, I call you Chris from now on."
"That's my girl," Chris smiled while he ruff my hair. "Now, let's get you that ice cream I've promise."
My blue eyes sparkled as he mentioned ice cream.
"Can it be Vanilla?" I asked.
Chris laughed. "Well of course! That's your fav, isn't it?"
I nodded happily.
"Well? Come on! Let's get going before it runs out!"
A ringtone was heard from Chris' pocket. I stopped licking my vanilla ice cream and stared at him. He was holding a strawberry flavored ice cream with his left hand while his right hand reached out to grabbed his phone in his pocket. I stared at him for a moment before going back to licking my ice cream.
Chris was somehow exited when someone called him, but his expression dropped a minute after. He quickly stood up and dropped his ice cream.
"WHAT?! What do you mean I have to go away?! Hey! Don't you hung up on me! Hello? Hello? Hello! DAMN IT!" Chris cursed and flipped his phone back.
"C-Chris? What's the matter? Is something wrong? You look upset… Why did you curse?" I asked.
Chris looked over to me and smiled a bit. He bends down to my eye level while putting both of his hands on my shoulders. I look down to his hands and back to see his face. My eyes widened a bit as Chris placed a sad smile. I frowned.
"Jen… I'm sorry, but tomorrow morning… I'm moving to Europe."
That's when my heart broke.
"C-C-Chris? Is t-that really you?"
I asked a bit shaky.
It has been seven years. Seven years since I last saw him. I'm happy for his return. No. I'm thrilled with joy for his return. He pretty much looked the same. Well, aside from being taller than me and have an even messier brown hair. He was very much the same Chris that I met years ago.
Chris smiled warmly at me as I kept on staring at him.
"Yup! I'm the same old Chris you've met years ago!" Chris exclaimed happily.
He stretched his arms wide to his sides as I smiled widely. "Now, come here Jen! I missed you so much!" I grinned and jumped into his arms. He hugged me while spinning me around. "Aww! Jen! I missed the hugs you used to give me!" Christ continued.
"M-Me too, Chris… I missed you so much." I whispered as I buried my face to his shoulder.
"Yeah… Hey, I got good news~!"
"Primus! Where in the pit could she be?!"
Ironhide stomped almost squishing a few human in the process. He was very much frustrated that Jen still hasn't come back to base. It was already nightfall when Ironhide continue to rant along with a very pissed off Barricade. Optimus, the chevy twins, Ratchet, Mirage, and Prowl were looking for Jen at Tranquility while the rest of the Autobots rest in for today. The afternoon search party team had a very frustrating day. They've been searching Tranquility for hours and still have no sign of Jen anywhere.
Barricade was pissed off and so was Ratchet. The Autobot police officer and the CMO was really pissed that Jen was supposed to call them, but she didn't. Right now, Jen might be running or more like limping around Tranquility with injuries that might caused a serious amount of blood loss. If the CMO or any of the Autobots doesn't find her soon, she might die at the streets.
There are some places the Autobots could look at. Her house is defiantly out of the question, since Barricade searched through the whole house. The Secret Hideout is also out too. The restaurant she works at, Carte Venice; has simply no clue because she isn't scheduled to work on a Monday.
Sam and Mikaela were ordered to go home with Bumblebee while the others stayed back. Will and Epps were trying to calm the angry Ironhide and the worried twins. The two humans were trying their best to calm the three frustrated Autobots with all their encouraging talk.
"Hey, Hey, Hey! Ironhide!" Will yelled as he waved his gun to the Weapon Specialist.
"What!" Ironhide answered angrily.
"Um… Calm down, I'm sure Optimus has already found her." Will tried.
"Heh," Ironhide snorted. "It's impossible. Optimus would inform us now. So, if my guess is right, which is right, Jen is not yet found by the search team." He shot back.
"Yeah! We agree with Ironaft!" The twins yelled in unison.
"Okay…" Will sighed as he threw his hands up. "I give up. Those three are impossible to calm down."
Epps shook his head. He placed his arm around Will's shoulder and grinned sheepishly. "Cheer up, Will. I'm sure boss bot will find her."
"I know, but I'm just worried that Jen might be suffering from blood loss. Sam said that she got a few scratches and two big ones! I mean her parents wouldn't careless! I should've just come to her house and arrest her parents for neglecting their own daughter! Damn them!" Will cussed.
Epps backed away. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, man! I think you've been spending time too much with 'Hide!" He laughed a bit.
"Don't compare me to the grumpy bot." Will smiled.
"Ah… like bot like charge." Epps laughed.
Both Ironhide and Will glared at the dark skinned soldier. Epps laughed nervously as he scratched the back of his head. Will shook his head while Ironhide only grunted. The dark skinned man hid behind the silver Autobot while Jazz just chuckled.
Just then, Barricade stood up. He transformed into his alt-mode, which made everyone alarmed. "Hey, 'Cade! Where are 'ya going?" Sideswipe yelled.
"I'm going to find, Janette." Barricade grunted.
"No," Elita-One shook her head. "Optimus ordered us to stay here." She stated as she crossed her arms.
"He has no command over me." Barricade plainly stated as he turned his sirens on.
Barricade turned his engine on and began to drive away, but he was stopped by a giant foot. Barricade quickly stopped and flicker his headlights for Sideswipe and Sunstreaker to move away. The twins took a quick glance at each other and they both nodded. The two turned into their alt-mode, the Lamborghinis.
We want to come with you. Sideswipe comm. linked the ex-Decepticon.
Alright, Barricade sighed. But, if you two lug heads got in my way… I'll leave you.
Don't worry, we don't plan to. Sunstreaker revved his engine.
The three Autobots revved their engines loudly and the rest of the Autobots flinched. This time, Elita-One stopped them by standing at the Hangar's door. She tapped her foot on the floor while crossing her arms over her chest plates. She glared deeply at the three mech with her electric blue eyes. The Mustang and the two Lamborghinis backed away at bit as they saw Elita-One with Arcee and Chromia standing at their exit. Sometimes, these three femmes were much worse than the Autobot Leader himself.
"You three," Chromia pointed her metal finger at the three mech. "Are not going anywhere! 'Ya three hear me?! If you slip pass us, I'm sure my cannons will blast you to the pit straight away!" she threaten.
"Y-Yes, ma'am!" Both Sideswipe and Sunstreaker quickly shouted and backed away.
Barricade stayed. He didn't move a millimeter from where he stayed. He flicked on his headlights again. Just as his engine revved loudly and the femmes was standing in a blocking position, his radio clicked on.
"Really? Do you really mean it?!"
I was with Chris the whole time. We both spend the afternoon talking to each other on how much we missed through the seven years. I told Chris everything, well… not everything. I didn't tell him about encountering the Autobots. I just told him about my family and school-life.
Chris wasn't pleased that I was hurt during try outs. He even took me to the Hospital for scans and all. Turns out, the doctor says that the cut only needed to get bandaged by new bandages. I sighed in relief that it wasn't really that serious. I need to call the Autobots for this one, I'm sure they're thinking I was kidnapped by the Decepticons.
I checked my cell phone as Chris nodded. I smiled at him and saw there were forty messages, sixty miscalls, and ten voice messages. I grinned sheepishly as I rubbed the back of my neck. The Autobots are really blowing a circuit. Why did I even put my phone on silent? I should- wait, why's the screen black?
I tried to push some buttons, but it didn't work. Great, my batteries are dead. The Autobots are really going to kill me now. I just hope they'll let me slip through this time.
"Uh-huh!" Chris chirped happily. I look back up and smiled. "I really mean it!" He exclaimed with excitement.
"That's really great, Chris!" I smiled warmly at him.
I'm really glad that he came back to Tranquility, even though it's only for a week. I still thought that he should stay longer. It would be nice for him to meet Samuel, Mikaela, William, Robert, and the holoform Autobots.
Chris glanced over to see his wrist watch. He gasped dramatically. I rolled my eyes and smiled. "Oh shizz! It's six! It has been three hours already?! Wow, I guess times does fly while you're having fun." He grinned and stood up.
"C'mon, I should take you back home." Chris said and I nodded.
I stopped. "Wait, could you hold that though? I'll go home with my bike. Thank you for your offer though." I said as Chris gave me a confused look. "Hey, Chris? Can I borrow your cell phone?" I asked.
"Sure! Here 'ya go." He handed me his white Blackberry.
I held his phone and stared at it for a moment. I face-palmed, I just remembered that I couldn't remember the Autobots' or anyone's cell phone number! I even don't know my own! Ups, I guess I should have written all of the numbers down on my phone book. I shook my head and gave back Chris his cell phone.
We both went outside and he got inside his sleek black car while I grabbed my old blue bike. Chris peek his head out of his car and look at me worriedly. "Hey, you sure you don't want a ride? I'm sure I'll bring back some senses to your parents." He smiled.
I shook my head and chuckled, "There's no need for that, Chris. I'll survive." I smiled back at him.
"Alright then, see you tomorrow morning?"
"I'll see what I can do."
"Great! Call me later!"
I started to pedal my bike as Chris drove away. The ice cream parlor wasn't that far from my house. I should really get home as fast as I can and charge my phone. So that, I can call them and tell that I'm not hurt or kidnapped or dead. Barricade and the others might be going on a search party as I speak. I chuckled at the thought. Well, alright, it's not funny. It's bad. Totally bad.
I glanced over to Samuel's house and saw Bumblebee wasn't at the driveway. I'm guessing he's at the garage. I sighed in relief. This was a good thing right? Bumblebee doesn't comm. linked every Autobot, telling them that I'm back without calling them or anything? Yes, defiantly a good thing.
I sneaked inside my house through the backyard. My locked house can be access by climbing up the vines on the wall. I sighed. It was a two story high climb. I grabbed the vine and started to climb my way up. Luckily, the window was always unlocked. There was a balcony too, so it makes me easier to open the window. With a soft click, I opened the window silently. I slowly made my way across the hall to my room, which was right next to Emily's. I heard laughing coming from my sister's room. I peeked in and saw both of my parents were listening to Emily's stories.
I couldn't help, but smiled a bit.
As soon as I was in my room, I quickly took out the charger and insert it into the outlet. I was waiting until the battery showed 1%. I grinned as it was now 1%. I quickly pressed the end call button longer to activate my phone back. I waited for it to reload for five minutes. I smiled widely as the screen was no on again. I searched through my Contacts.
I pressed the 'B' and called Barricade.
I waited for him to answer.
"Hello?"
Yes!
"Officer Cade? It's me Janette." I replied nervously.
"Janette! Oh Primus! Are you alright? Where have you been? And why didn't you answer us?!" Barricade yelled.
I flinched. "Please calm down, Officer Cade. I'm perfectly fine. I went to a doctor. And I'm sorry for not calling back."
"That's not what I meant. What I meant was 'why didn't you call us or answer any of our calls?'" Barricade asked in a concern tone.
"Oh, that… I put my phone on silent. I was about to give you guys a call, but my cell phone ran out of batteries. So I have to charge it first. I'm very sorry." I apologized.
"No worries," Barricade sighed heavily. "But you do have to apologize to everyone at base. They've been worried sick about you. Especially, the twins and Ironhide. Ratchet was concern about the wounds you've got earlier today." He explained.
I took a deep sigh.
"Okay, I'll tell them tomorrow ni-," I was cut off by Barricade.
"No, listen to me. I've just comm. link Optimus. He will be there in ETA 10 minutes. Ratchet wants you in his Med Bay. Be careful he's pissed, like me." Barricade said as I groaned a bit.
"No need to take me to base just to look at the wounds I got. Tell Mr. Prime and the others to come back to base. I'll visit them later." I said.
"Alright…" Barricade finally gave up. There was a minute of silence between us. "Um… Janette? I think you should see Ratchet. He said if you don't see him tonight, you might end up in his Med Bay for more than a week." He stated as I nod.
"Fine, but I'm not going back to base. I've got a meeting tomorrow afternoon and I can't let him down." I said as I sighed deeply.
"Fine by me, meeting? What meeting? And you just said 'he'?"
I raised an eyebrow at my phone. "Yes… A meeting and yes. He is a he?" I answered confusedly.
"He?! You're going with a 'HE' ALONE?! I'm coming with you." Barricade quickly said.
I panicked a little. Barricade might give Chris a death glare. " N-No need, Officer Cade. I can take care of myself."
"Said the girl who's injured." I heard Robert snorted.
"Shut up Epps!" I heard William shouted. I can also hear him slap Robert. I presume that William hit Robert at the back of his head.
I giggled. "Well, I guess I have to say goodbye. I think Doctor Ratchet is here."
"Goodbye." Multiple replies were heard.
I didn't hear Sideswipe or Sunstreaker's voice. I guess they both were still upset.
Just as I was about to hung up, Ironhide's voice came into my hearing. "Now listen here missy! Don't expect me just to let you off the hook! I'm going to ground you for a week and gave the femmes a piece of my processor!"
I laughed nervously.
"Ironhide! We do NOT harm humans!" Elita-One scolded.
There was a loud clang and they hung up.
I laughed a little as I glanced over to my window. Outside, I saw Optimus, Ratchet, the younger twins, Prowl, and Mirage. They were parked at the Witwicky's driveway and my driveway as well. I sighed deeply and opened my window. It was a high jump down to the lawn, but there was a small platform in front of my room. I steadied myself and stood on the small platform. Measuring the height and surroundings, I decided to jump down to the bush. When I was about to jump, I slipped. I fell and got ready for impact on my back, but the pain never came.
I opened my eyes and saw Bumblebee's holoform. He caught me on time before I even hit the ground. He stood up and smiled down at me. I sighed heavily, but smiled back at him. He carried me towards the Witwicky's household. Knowing that Ratchet might yell at me and Optimus might scold me. I took a deep breath before getting inside the house. Samuel might probably freak out and Mikaela might attack me with questions. With one last deep breath, I turn the door knob.
"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING YOUNGLING?!"
I slumped down as Ratchet started to yell at me. I was right. The CMO was wrapping my arm and leg in bandages while scolding or yelling at me. I could hear the two smaller Chevrolets were snickering, but their snickering soon stopped when Bumblebee grabbed their hoods and dragged the twins away from the living room.
"I was thinking of something else, Doctor Ratchet." I answered and flinched as Ratchet tightened the bandage on my arm.
The CMO sighed, "That was a rhetorical question. I was just scolding you." he admitted.
I nodded nervously.
Optimus shook his head as Prowl and Mirage sat down. I flinched again when Ratchet tighten the bandages on my arm again. I gave a small glare to him as the CMO only return a glare back. I could see a small vain popped up to Ratchet's forehead. He tightened his grip on my arm and tied the bandages. I shivered as he finished with my arm and leg. Does he have to be that hard on me?
I lay back and leaned against the couch as I tried to relax my arm and leg. The muscles were still tensed a bit, but nothing a little stretching could do. I stood up and began to flex my arm. Ratchet quickly stood up and pushed me back down. I stared at him as he only crossed his arms over his chest. I heard Mirage chuckled.
"Hai appena affrontare l'ira del Accetta. (You've just face the wrath of the Hatchet.)" Mirage spoke in Italian, not daring to say 'The Hatchet' in English, knowing that Ratchet might attack him with his wrenches.
I nodded and sighed heavily. At least Ratchet didn't throw any wrenches at me. "You should've contact us when you're out of school, Jen." Optimus sighed.
I hung my head down. "I know… I'm very sorry, Mr. Prime." I apologized.
He chuckled. "You are forgiven."
"HOLY F**KING SHIT! What happen?!"
I turn around and saw Judy. She was panicking with both dogs in her hand with 'blings'. The panicked Judy dropped both dogs to the floor. Both Mojo and Frankie scrambled away from the woman and Frankie hid behind Ron while Mojo jumped over to my lap. Little Mojo was shaking. I don't know if he's scared or anything because shaking like a leaf was a Chihuahua's thing. I took some of the bling off of him and Samuel gave me an apologetic look.
"Nothing has happen Mrs. Judy." I stated.
"No shit Sherlock! Something has happen! Ratchet!" Judy demanded.
Ratchet sighed heavily. "An accident has happen," he pointed his finger to me. "She was trying out for the track team and got… tripped by a group of femmes. Thus she ended up wounded and didn't call us sooner." The medic glared at me and I just gave a shrug.
"I was about to… until something came up." I sheepishly rubbed the back of my neck and blushed a bit.
"Oh really?" Ratchet scoffed.
"Yes, I met someone I haven't seen in years." I smiled a bit.
"And this person is the first guy that you liked?" Samuel guessed.
I nodded.
"Aw shit… Sides n' Sunny aren't gonna like this." Mudflap said as Skids nodded in agreement.
"No shiz Sherlock Flap." Skids spat.
As the lambo twins heard the news, they both were angry at this so called Chris. They both did a quick researched through Facebook, Twitter, and the entire worldwide communication website. They found a lot of information about Christopher Ronald.
Twenty three year old Christopher Ronald is a businessman from Europe, German. He was born in Tranquility, but he moved away to German when he was sixteen. His appearance is a young man with tanned skin, messy yet spiky brow hair, and a pair of blue eyes. He's single and he has an interest in a young blonde woman. He wrote stories and posted them at the websites. What's interesting about this stories are because it begins with the day he met a young girl, who's a blonde and seven years old and the last chapter he has updated is when he wrote 'I've found the girl of my dreams.'
Sideswipe and Sunstreaker are mad. No, they're very angry! How could a man at the age of twenty three steal their girl? Their femme. Sure, they have competition around with Bumblebee and maybe Jolt, but this? An earthling mech comes by and steal the spotlight. Now, the twins were more than angry. They're going to teach this mech a lesson for messing with them.
"Look at 'im… Putting his arm around my femme." Sideswipe growled.
Mikaela put her binoculars down and smacked Sideswipe's head. "Shut it you dolt! We're here to spy! Not kill!" She hissed.
"Spying my aft…," Sunstreaker mumbled. He glanced back to Christopher and Jen. They both began to hold hands. The twins froze and their alt-mode revved their engines. "I'm here to kill that mech!"
"Sunny, if you consider yourself being a spy… You suck..." Bumblebee yelled and smacked Sunstreaker's head.
Sunstreaker glared at the blonde. "You're lucky that I'm angrier at the mech than you… Or else you'll be in pit for calling me that." He growled.
Bumblebee shrugged. He saw Mikaela pulled up her binoculars again. The blonde holoform of the striped Camaro only sighed heavily. Mikaela was the one who called out for this mission. She took Sam, the lambo twins, Chromia, and Bumblebee. This mission is JUST to SPY on Christopher and Jen after school, NOT kill Christopher. Bumblebee shook his head at the thoughts he's been having. He watched as Chromia scolded the twins. Sure, the scout himself is jealous, but he didn't have the urge to kill the mech. Just, hurt… or scared the wits out of him.
"That Fragging Glithed Pit Spawn Slagging mech…" Sunstreaker glared as he cuss in Cybertronian.
"SUNNY!" Chromia scolded. "Watch your language! You're only a youngling!" She smacked Sunstreaker's back.
"AW! FRAGG- AW!" Sunstreaker began to argue with Chromia as the femme kept on hitting whenever he began to curse.
Mikaela rolled her eyes as she began to look into the binocular again. "My gosh!" She exclaimed.
"What?!" They asked.
"Holy shit!" Mikaela cursed.
"WHAT IS IT?!" Bumblebee asked worriedly.
"Oh shit!" Mikaela cursed again.
"OH for the love of Primus! Just tell us already!" Sideswipe demanded.
"I can't."
Sam snatched the binocular away from Mikaela's hand and look into the two holes. His jaw dropped when he saw Christopher and Jen through the binocular. Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Bumblebee, and Chromia suspiciously eyes the two teens.
"My gosh… Oh Primus! NO! HELL NO WAY!" Sam shouted.
"In the name of the AllSpark… what the heck are you two talking about?" Bumblebee asked as he and Chromia tried to hold back the twins from strangling Sam and Mikaela.
"Chris is kneeling down!" Sam exclaimed.
"But," Chromia began. "-that means," Bumblebee said. "He's proposing to JEN?!" The twins finished.
Sam and Mikaela nodded.
"That's it! Order or no order! I'm going to teach that mech a lesson!" Sideswipe stormed off with his twin beside him.
"WAIT! Sunny! Sides! Don't kill the mech!" Chromia shouted.
"No promises!"
Chris was leaning against the metal fence. Jen insisted that she will buy him and herself a drink. He smiled and waved his hand to her, when she started to run to a store. A minute before, he kneeled down to her with a small box in his hand. Jen laughed a bit and hugged him. So now, they're going to have a drink to celebrate.
The brunette smiled a bit as he held the little small box that holds the future. He let out a small sigh with a smile. He shoved the small box back into his pocket as he heard footsteps.
"Ah Jen! You-," Christopher was cut off because it wasn't Jen. It was two black haired young man, one with a single red strike on his hair and the other one with a single yellow strike. "Why, hello there." Christopher greeted.
"Hi." They both greeted with a smile, a smile that seemed fake.
"What can I do for you two?" Christopher asked.
"Well…" The yellow one began. "We want to talk-," The red one said.
"-about, who are you to our Jen?" They finished in unison with a smile.
A/N: Ouch… Poor Chris… Well… I want to make it up for not updating! So here's a long one ^^.
