Author: Aw, this is so cu- Wait, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THIS??

Bulk: Oh come on, you've been talking about your new boyfriend nonstop!

Smokes: Yeah, no kidding...

SHW: You have been going on about it even before you started going out with him.

SW: *nods*

Author: O///o 

Taylor: *gasps* She HAS??!!

Arcee: Yeah, they recently got together.

OP: It is rather adorable. ^-^

Ratchet: *dumbfounded*

Author: B-But he doesn't know anything about you guys!!

WJ: Well, you still have to go give him a gift.

Author: *flustered* I already did!! Yesterday, when we were hanging out! (Yes, I actually did ^^)

Omega: *claps* Great!! *picks Author up and hugs her*

Author: -////-

Bulk: Well, you still have to bring-

*poof*

MB: *arrives* MERRY CHRISTMAS-

Bee: *happy* <Meadow Blossom!>

Taylor: *waves* Hi!!

MB: *goes over to her and Ratchet* How was your trip?

Ratchet: *pats her head nonchalantly* Fine.

OP: Welcome, Meadow Blossom.

MB: Sup! *holds out her arms* I got a gift for all of you! C'mere!

Everyone: *goes over for group hug*

MB: *hugs them happily*

Author: *is now back to normal* Okay, now let the gift giving begin!

*an hour or so later*

June: Bill! *hurries over to Fowler*

Fowler: *a little surprised* Yes?

June: *quickly hands him a gift* For you. *smiles softly*

Fowler: .///. *clears throat* This is... mine?

Jack: *in the background* Oh for goodness sake.

June: *kisses his cheek* Yes, so hurry up and open it.

Fowler: >////< *quickly opens it to see a badge that says 'new boyfriend'*

June: ^^

Fowler: *about to have a heart attack*

Omega: *clasps servos together* Awww!!!

Miko: *pops in* AWESOME!! Do you have a gift for her?

Fowler: *clears his throat again and kisses her cheek*

June: ^//^ Merry Christmas, Bill.

Fowler: *embarrassed smile* Merry Christmas, June.

Jack: *groans in the background* Oh, why don't you just get a room already.

*a little later*

Miko: *about to sneak around the corner*

Jack: *bumps into her*

Miko: *jumps and hides something behind her back* O-Oh!! Jack!

Jack: *quickly hides something behind his back as well* H-Hey, Miko! What.. what are you going back here?

Miko: *quickly brushes some hair behind her ear* Nothing! *pokes his chest* What are you doing back here?

Jack: *flustered* W-Well, I was- You see, I was going... *sighs* You know what, forget it. *holds out a wrapped gift*

Miko: *blinks in surprise*

Jack: -///- *mumbles* Merry Christmas, Miko...

Miko: *beams happily* Didn't know you had it in you! *punches his shoulder* Thanks! *hands him her gift* I have one for you to!

Jack: *perks up while blushing* You do? *takes it* 

Miko: *smiling while rolling her eyes* Well, duh. Let's open them at the same time!

Jack: O-Okay..

Miko: 1-2-3-GO! *rips hers open quickly to find a electric guitar keychain*

Jack: *unwraps a sweater that says 'She's Lying''*

Miko: *super happy* I love it!! Thanks!

Jack: *holds out his gift in confusion* Uh..

Miko: *laughs and holds out her own sweater that says 'I'm the Dumb One'* Don't worry, I have one too!

Jack: *stares at it a moment before laughing* Thanks, Miko.

Miko: You know it! *glomps him*

June: *in the background* No kissing until she's older!

Jack: *holding Miko* MOM!!!

Author: *now dying of laughter*

*shortly after*

Bee: <Arcee!> *runs over to her*

Arcee: *quickly kicks something behind a monitor*

Bee: *hugs her and lifts her up* <Merry Christmas!>

Arcee: *has her arms stuck at her sides* Uh.. thanks. *internally dying*

Bee: *puts her down* <So, um.. I have something for you.> *holds out poorly wrapped gift* <I was a little nervous about giving it to you since that meant admitting that I like you...> *blushes bright blue*

Arcee: *smiles and blushes a little as well* Thanks, Bee. Me too. *bends over and picks up a lightning bolt bumper sticker* Sorry that I didn't have time to wrap it.

Bee: *grabs it and chirps happily* <This is for me?? I love it!!> 

Arcee: *still smiling fondly as she unwraps her gift* I figured you would. *unwraps a bumper sticker of a blue lightning bolt*

Bee: *laughs* <Wow, we didn't even try!>

Arcee: *can't help but laugh too* I suppose we match now.

Bee: *hugs her and presses his forehelm to hers* <Love ya, Cee.>

Arcee: *blushing* Love you too.

Smokes: *tries to sneak up behind them with mistletoe*

Arcee: *suddenly slaps him* Don't you dare.

Smokes: Aw, man, I was so close!! *walks away dejectedly*

*a few minutes later*

Alpha: *hands Freezecharger a tool cleaner* Merry Christmas, sweetspark. *grins*

Freezecharger: *smiles* Thanks, Alpha. Come on, I planned on giving you weapon modifications for your gift. *takes his servo* 

Alpha: *excited now* You're the best!!

Omega: *pops in* JUST HAVE SPARKLINGS ALREADY I WANT TO BE AN AUNT-

*short time later*

Ratchet: *typing on his monitor*

Taylor: *walks over to him and taps his leg* Hey, honey!

Ratchet: *pauses and looks over to her* Yes? *bends down and picks her up*

Taylor: *holds out a gift* I got something for you! It took me a while to find something you might like. *smiles with a small blush*

Ratchet: *happy but a little embarrassed* Thank you. Um.. I don't think I can unwrap that.

Taylor: *laughs* Well, activate your holoform then! It's better suited for that anyways.

Ratchet: *sighs and puts her on the couch* Alright. *activates holoform and sits next to her on the couch*

Taylor: ^^ *hands him gift*

Ratchet: *slowly unwraps it and holds out mug that says 'Best Husband and You Can't Change My Wife's Mind'*

Taylor: *giggles* Don't worry, I wouldn't pull that kind of prank again.

Ratchet: *stares at it a moment before laughing once* It's very good. Here, I have something for you, too.

Taylor: *a little surprised* You do? I thought you didn't really like the holiday that much..

Ratchet: *as he pulls something out from his pocket* I said when I was younger. I can enjoy it with you now. *holds out a silver bracelet with orange ringlets around it* I figured this would suit you.

Taylor: *gasps* It's perfect!!

Ratchet: *chuckles and slides it onto her wrist* Merry Christmas, sweetspark. *holds her close*

Taylor: *snuggles against him* Merry Christmas to you, too, honey. ^^

Miko: *tries to hold out mistletoe over them*

Ratchet: *gives her death glare* I will kiss her when I decide to.

Miko: *backs away*

*later*

Ratchet: *walking down the hall* Optimus?

OP: *from his berthroom* Here, Ratchet.

Ratchet: *goes in* How are you holding up?

OP: *holding an old datapad in his servos* I'm alright. 

Ratchet: *walks over quietly* It's been quite some time, hasn't it?

OP: *looks over the datapad sadly* Yes. She had not even been promoted to Elita One when she gave this to me.

Ratchet: *sits down next to him* Ah, yes, her name was Ariel then, wasn't it? *places his servo on Optimus' shoulder plate* I'm sorry.

OP: *smiles a little sadly* It is quite alright, Ratchet. At least I have her memory.

Ratchet: *looks down at his lap* ... Are you sure you're alright, Optimus?

OP: *pats his back once* I will be fine, Ratchet. Your concern means very much to me.

Ratchet: *sighs and nods* Alright then. *gets up and begins to walk out*

OP: Ratchet?

Ratchet: *pauses at the door* Yes?

OP: Thank you.

Ratchet: *smiles softly and nods once more* Of course. *leaves quietly*

OP: *smiles down at his gift* Merry Christmas, Elita. *rubs it gently with his thumb*

*a little time later*

Taylor: *happily walking about the base while admiring her bracelet* Hey, Omega! Look at what Ratchet gave me! *sees Omega sitting around the corner with her knee plates drawn to her chest* Hey, are you okay?

Omega: *sighs* Yeah. *points to a wrapped gift beside her* I had something for Wheeljack, but I can't find him anywhere. I guess... he doesn't want a gift from me. *sad*

Taylor: *sits by her pede* Aw, I'm sure that's not true. *pats her pede*

Alpha: *peeks around the corner* Yeah, no kidding! He totally is head over heels for you!

Omega: *blushes and angrily tries to slap him* No he does not!! Why would he be hiding from me otherwise?!

WJ: *walking down the hall* Who said I was hiding from you?

Omega: *stands up quickly* Wheeljack!!!

WJ: *smirks* Aw, did you miss me? *leans down close to her face*

Omega: *pouts* Maybe...

WJ: I wasn't hidin', darlin. I was just trying to decide what to getcha.

Omega: *perks up* Really??

WJ: *grins* Yep. But I wasn't able to decide on anythin, so I hope this is good enough for ya. *kisses the top of her helm*

Alpha: *takes back mistletoe he was about to hold out* Wow, I didn't even need to use this.

Taylor: *squeals happily with sparkling eyes*

Omega: o///O I-I think that'll suffice. *chuckles nervously*

WJ: *laughs and holds up her chin with a digit teasingly* Aw, don't tell me the biggest shipper on this team is getting shy!

Omega: *pouts and bends down to get her gift* No! Just.. nervous. *shoves it into his chest*

WJ: *laughs again* Attagirl. *unwraps a new set of tools* Nice! I've been meaning to check out a few of these myself. *examines a few* 

Omega: *beams* I know, you've been talking about it for a little while now.

Alpha: *walks over to WJ and gets all in his face* You better take good care of my sister.

WJ: *playfully shoulder bumps him* Ah, you know me. I couldn't stop her from running out into trouble even if I wanted to.

Omega: Hey, that's my line!!

Alpha: *laughs* Okay, I was just playing big brother. I know you two are great for each other.

Taylor: *taps Omega repeatedly* Congrats!!! *super happy*

Omega: *picks her up* You should have seen Bumblebee and Arcee's gift exchange!

Taylor: *gasps* I MISSED IT??

Author: *pops in from around the corner* Yep!! Well, I think that's all the ships for today folks!

BD: *walking alone through a dark hallway of the base* It would be too awkward to ask them to send me back to the Nemesis right now...

BD: *hears a noise*

BD: *jumps and takes out his hammer* Who-Who's there?!

Arachnid: *steps out of the shadows* Quiet, you muscle brain! *whisper/hisses*

BD: Arachnid? *puts hammer away* What are you doing back here?

Arachnid: *rolls optics* 

BD: *frowns* What did I say?

Arachnid: *sighs* Nothing, you big dork. *walks over to him*

BD: *backs away nervously* Um.. what are you doing?

Arachnid: *raises herself on her spider legs* Oh, don't worry, Breakdown. Haven't you been able to tell? I'm reformed now. *grins and slowly grabs his chin with her digits*

BD: *very nervous* U-Uh, well, I mean, you have seemed a little... um.. nicer? *laughs awkwardly*

Arachnid: *slow grin* Well, that's nice to hear. *pulls his face closer and raises a spider leg*

BD: *a little scared now* W-What are you doing?!

Arachnid: *snickers* Just being myself, Breakdown. It's a bit hard to act any other way.

BD: *gulps* What's that supposed to mean-MPH!

Arachnid: *has slowly kissed him*

BD: *about to have a spark attack*

Arachnid: *hardens kiss and pulls him into her more with her spiderlegs*

BD: *confusion*

Arachnid: *lets go after maybe five minutes and grins at him*

BD: *blushing so much his cooling fans turn on at full blast* W-Wha...? Why would you.. You just.. I don't... *can't speak*

Arachnid: *chuckles and turns around* Merry Christmas, Breakdown. *begins to walk away*

BD: *left a blushing speechless mess*
