Sunstreaker's Pov

It has been 3 days. 3 days since I kissed Liz, my charge, the one person I was supposed to protect with my life. I painted a picture of… our kiss. It's hard to believe it's wrong when it feels so- so right. But I know in my processor, if no other part of my body that it's wrong.

Since I drove away from Liz that day, I haven't gone back to base. I had Sideswipe explain to Prowl, through our bond that I would be gone for a while. I have to return tonight though. I have to see Liz again. The rumours, no doubt going around base are the least of my troubles.

Sideswipe: {Are you ready to return to base?}

I guess I couldn't hide from this any longer

Me: {On my way Sideswipe}

The canyon roads were dusty as I made my way back to base. After about half an hour drive I was back. After rolling in, I transformed into my bipedal mode and walked into Prime's office to report in.

Liz's Pov

I really missed Sunstreaker in all the time that he's been gone. I heard he returned to base this morning from wherever the frag he's been. I would- I would go see him, but I don't think he's ready for that, I don't even think I'm ready for that. It's best to just avoid him for now.

2 weeks later Still Liz's Pov

Okay, I know I said it would be best to just ignore Sunstreaker for a while but this is just ridiculous, it has been TWO WEEKS for Primus sake. I mean avoiding him has been easy enough in a ginormous base, but why do we even, need to avoid each other?

To top it off I've been getting chest pains, I refuse to go to Ratchet for some over the top diagnosis. But besides that I really miss him and I wish- I wish we could be together again.

Sideswipe's Pov

Despite what people may think, I'm no idiot. I know something is going on between Liz and my brother whether they admit or not. So I decided to break that one little rule my brother has about snooping to, um- help them.

I knew I would need some help so I enlisted Bumblebee to help me. I know that if anybody was going to snoop through Sunstreaker's stuff, he would be most comfortable with the two of us.

Bee: What are we looking for exactly?

Me: Proof of any kind, letters, gifts, paint- oh frag

Bee: What's wrong?

Me: Have a look at this

Bee glanced at the painting in Sunstreaker's art portfolio before making a whirring sound and glitching. In all the time I was on the floor trying revive Bee, one thought was in my mind.

Me: You've got some explaining to do Sunny

Sunstreaker's Pov

I haven't talked to Liz in, well a while now and I miss her like the Pit, but I 'm- I'm afraid to talk to her. She probably thinks l'm just a playmech, something I never wanted her of all people to think of me as. I continued dwelling on my problems before a com link message came in.

Optimus: {Sunstreaker, please meet with me in Hangar 8 on the west side}

Me: {Yes Sir}

I can't imagine what Optimus needs me for at this time of day. Nonetheless I rolled into Hangar 8 and found Optimus waiting for me there

Me: What do you need Sir?

Optimus: I need you to talk to Elizabeth.

Me: Wha- What! That's what you wanted to see me for?

Optimus: Sunstreaker, I figure that you feel you've done something unforgivable but being apart is hurting both of you .

Optimus nodded at me before walking out of the hangar leaving me open mouthed.

Ratchet: {Sunstreaker, report to Medbay for mandatory medical examinations}

Sunstreaker: {On my way}

Later in the Medbay

Usually I would put up a fight about going to the Medbay for medicals but today I'm so drained, I just sat still, while Ratchet ran his tests on me

Ratchet: I need to look at your spark now Sunstreaker

Me: Fine

Ratchet opened my spark chamber while I lay on the medical berth, lost in thought

Ratchet: Sunstreaker, do you love Elizabeth?

Me: Rat-Ratchet, why would you ask that?!

Ratchet: Medical reasons

Me: I- I really care about her

There was a moment of silence before I broke it

Me: What does this have to do with my health, exactly?

Ratchet: Don't sass me youngling, your spark appears to be calling out for her

Me: Holy Frag
