"Ripjaw! Ripjaw where are you!?"

Patchy had returned already with news on Diamondback, he was looking all over the base for Ripjaw. He didn't have to look for long when Ripjaw charged into the room with a snarling roar. His long jaws opened wide clamping down on the smaller mech's shoulder, tossing him into the wall. As Patchy fell to the ground, Ripjaw stomped on his helm, "You better have a good excuse for interrupting me," the Spinosaurus snarled.

"Sorry, sir, I didn't know you were in the middle of something. I just wanted to let you know Amberblade's suspicions were correct, Diamondback was captured by the Autobots."

"What?" Ripjaw growled softly as he added pressure on Patchy's helm.

"Ahhh! What were you in the middle of that got you this upset about being interrupted?"

"None of your concern," he snarled as he took his foot off the smaller mech. "Go look for some Energon, we're running low. And Patchy..."

"Yes, sir?"

"Interrupt me again and you will lose your arm," Ripjaw threatened as he stomped back to his room.

"Yes, sir. Sorry, sir. Geez, he must have been doing something really enjoyable to be this upset."

Ripjaw slammed his door closed as he transformed back to his bot form. When he looked he saw that Amberblade wasn't in his room. With a frustrated growl, he left to look for her.

Amberblade was in her own room lying on her berth wondering if she made the right decision to leave Ripjaw's room. "I don't recall saying we were done," Ripjaw said in a surprisingly calm tone. He lays beside her slowly taking off his armor.

"I heard you shouting at Patchy and throwing him around so I thought it would be best if I went to my own room and give you some space to cool down."

"And I wanted to pick up where we left off," he told her as he caressed her cheek.

Amberblade looked into his optics for a moment before leaning in to kiss him on the mouth, after realizing what she was doing she pulled back, "Sorry, sir."

Ripjaw looked at her in shock, he could still feel her lips on his. Pulling her closer to him his lips collided with hers roughly. Amberblade's optics went wide for a moment before she closed them enjoying the kiss. Ripjaw licked her lips as he pressed their bodies closer. Amberblade moaned into the kiss as she let her servos roam over his body. Shivering with pleasure, he moaned into the kiss as he grinded his hips against hers.

~~~~~~~~~~

Patchy had returned with the Energon. As quietly as he could he placed them with the rest, hearing a loud moan he looked at Amberblade's room. Man, why does he get to have all the fun? I bet he has her at his mercy, you go, boss. He thought feeling happy for the scarred Dinobot. That must have been what I interrupted him from earlier and why he was so upset at me and being aggressive. He vented out a sigh. But still, I wish I could have some fun. He thought as he headed to his room.

"Do you think we'll get the rest of Ripjaw's group?" Grimlock asked. It had been a few days since the capture of Diamondback and it had gone quiet again.

"I'm sure we will in time," Bumblebee replied.

"What do you want to do in the meantime?"

"How about a date? I just realized we haven't had one yet."

"Is that like when we hang out but it's more special?"

"Pretty much, yeah."

"Sure. Got any place in mind?"

"Hmm, let me think."

Grimlock also tried to think of somewhere they could go. Where would I go for something special?

"How about the place where we shared our first kiss?" Bumblebee suggested.

"That sounds like a good idea," Grimlock nodded.

"Alright, let's get some Energon and head over there." The two grabbed some Energon and headed out to their destination. 

They sat there drinking their Energon unsure of what to say, "I honestly don't know what to say," Bumblebee finally spoke up.

"Neither do I. Are dates usually kind of awkward?"

"I don't think so."

"Have you ever been with anyone before me?"

"I slept with a couple of bots but never really been on a date."

"Did you like any of them?"

"A little bit but didn't really love them." Grimlock smiled as he nuzzled Bumblebee's neck, "But I love you, Grim, and I want to be with you."

"I know, and I love you too, 'Bee."

Bumblebee smiled at him before leaning in to kiss him and Grimlock met his kiss halfway. Primus, he's such a good kisser.

He's starting to get the hang of this kissing thing.

Grimlock deepened the kiss as he caressed Bumblebee's cheek. Bumblebee wrapped his arms around him pulling him closer. Unknowingly, Gimlock's servo traveled Bumblebee's body, feeling his every curve. Bumblebee pulled back, "Let's complete our date first."

Grimlock realized what he was doing and quickly pulled his servo away, "Sorry," he replied with a blush.

"Don't worry about it."

Pulling Bumblebee into a hug he rested his chin on the smaller mech's shoulder, taking in his scent. Bumblebee hugged him back then pulled back and got back to drinking his Energon.

"This is really nice." Grimlock smiled as he drank his Energon.

"It is, we'll have to do it more."

"I agree, maybe when we catch Ripjaw and his group we can."

"Yes."

"Is there anything you want to do?"

"Want to watch the stars?"

"Sure."

They go to find another spot where they can look up at the stars. Finding a small hill, Grimlock lays on his back and looks at the stars, "Have you ever wondered how many stars there are?"

Bumblebee chuckled as he lay next to him, "I tried counting them the last time I was here, but couldn't get a good count because there were just too many."

"I bet there's over 200 of them."

"Way more than 200."

Grimlock chuckled as he looked at Bumblebee with a loving smile.

"There are probably billions of them."

"Yeah."

"I like the different shapes they make."

Grimlock looked back to the stars, "Like what?"

"Well, that one looks like a Unicorn," Bumblebee replied pointing to a group of stars.

Grimlock squinted his optics trying to find the shape, "Ohh, I see it."

"Yeah, and that one looks like a dolphin."

"Wow, that one looks like a wasp, or maybe it's a honey bee?"

"Not really sure."

Grimlock shrugged and continued looking, "That one looks like you."

"And that one kind of looks like old buckethead."

Grimlock laughed, "It does, doesn't it?"

"Yeah," Bumblebee laughed.

"That one looks like Optimus."

"It does."

"I'm glad we're doing this," Grimlock smiled as he looked at the stars.

"Me too, it's fun."

"It really is," Grimlock agreed as he slowly reached for Bumblebee's servo. Bumblebee felt his movement and moved his servo to meet his and hold it. Grimlock smiled when he felt Bumblebee's servo in his. Bumblebee scooted over to get closer to him and Grimlock scooted closer as well. Bumblebee smiled as he leaned his helm against his shoulder.

"Bumblebee?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you," he whispered as he rested his helm on Bumblebee's helm.

"I love you too, Grimlock."

Grimlock smiled and closed his optics, enjoying being with the mech he loved.
