The next day, Grimlock could feel his metal getting hotter by the passing second, "Hey, Bumblebee? Can we find some shade or something? It's getting really hot."

"Sure. I believe there's a watering hole around here somewhere."

"Thank Primus," the Dinobot sighed in relief as he followed Bumblebee to the watering hole. Seeing the watering hole Grimlock broke into a run, jumping into the water creating a large splash. Bumblebee yelped and covered his face as a bunch of water came towards him.

"Man, this feels so much better."

Bumblebee shook the water off, "Enjoying it?"

"Yep. Do you want to come in? There's plenty of room."

"Sure," Bumblebee says as he goes in.

"Feels good, doesn't it?"

"Sure does."

"Why don't we do this more often?"

"If it stays this hot we most likely will."

"Awesome."

Bumblebee just smiled as he enjoyed the cool water.

"What do you like most about Earth?" Grimlock asked.

"Oh gee, I don't know where to begin."

"I know you like that Western thing."

"Oh yeah, and poetry, sunrises and sunsets, the countryside, all sorts of things."

"I think I like the ball thing that breaks the older buildings. What's it called again?"

"A wrecking ball?"

"Yeah, that's it."

"Of course." Bumblebee chuckled. 

Grimlock chuckled with a wide grin. "This is nice, two buddies hanging out enjoying the cool water on a hot day," he stated.

"I agree, it is."

Grimlock lowered himself until the water was up to his neck. "We better get going soon, we still need to finish our patrol," Bumblebee tells him.

"Aww, but I wanted to stay a little longer," Grimlock whined.

"I didn't say we had to go now."

"Oh. What was it like during the war?"

"Brutal."

"Was it like it was when we were fighting Steeljaw back then?"

"No, a lot worse."

"Wow."

"Yeah..."

"I'm sorry that stuff happened to you."

"Eh, it's all part of life."

"Guess we all have had something bad happen to us at some point."

"Yep, we all have."

Grimlock stood up and shook off the water as he got out, "Man, that felt good."

Bumblebee walked out as well, "It sure did. Let's continue our patrol now," Bumblebee says as he transforms and drives off. Grimlock put on his disguise and followed after Bumblebee as he sang his Dino-Crane song. They soon finish their patrol and go back to base.

"When can we have a movie night again?" Grimlock asked.

"Soon Grimlock."

"Alright, can't wait. I prefer the kid movies, they're more interesting."

"They sure are," Bumblebee chuckled.

"Which one is your favorite?"

"Not really sure. What's yours?"

"I like the one with the young dinosaurs."

"Ahh yes, that's a good one. Gives great lessons."

"I liked the one with the three horns, even if she was a little mean."

Bumblebee chuckled, "Yeah, it's cute how she tries to act all tough like her father."

"I like all of them really."

"Did any of them remind you of your brothers?"

"Yeah, the little long neck made me think of Swoop."

"How so?"

"Swoop's personality is like the long neck's, he's a natural born leader. I forget what their names were."

"The long neck's name is Littlefoot."

"Ahh, do you think the kids would want to watch it again?"

"Most certainly. Or maybe we could watch the others, there is more."

"Really!?" Grimlock asked excitedly.

"Yeah."

"Can't wait to see the other ones!" Grimlock exclaimed as he picked up an Energon cube. Bumblebee chuckled as he picked up an Energon cube as well. "Who's your favorite character?" Grimlock asked as he took a sip of his Energon.

"Ducky the duckbilled one."

"She is rather cute. What about her do you like?"

"I like how she asks questions then be like "do you, do you huh, huh?" just too adorable."

Grimlock chuckled, "Yeah, that is kind of cute."

"Yeah," Bumblebee says as he sits with Grimlock and drinks the Energon with him.

"I like the flyer. Was Petrie his name?"

"Yeah."

"I like the way he talks."

"Yeah, he does talk funny."

"The first one was kind of crazy though. Littlefoot's mom died and he was all alone."

"Yeah, that one was sad."

"But he made new friends and managed to reunite with his grandparents."

"Yep, which started their whole journey of the other movies."

"I like that."

Sideswipe and Windblade came over to get some Energon and sat down with them, "Hey, what you two talking about?" Sideswipe asked.

"The Land Before Time movies," Grimlock replied.

"Why?"

"We were talking about what our favorite movie was."

"Oh, I see."

"What's your favorite movie?"

"Kids or adults?"

"Either one," the Dinobot shrugged.

"For kids, I'll have to go with The Lion King."

"Why The Lion King?"

"I liked the lion fights."

"I did too until the hyenas came in," Grimlock shuddered. Sideswipe just laughed, "It's not funny, he was still alive when they jumped on him. And from the looks of how the funny one looked, I can only guess what had happened."

"Of course, they killed him and ate him."

"Then why were you laughing? No one deserves something like that."

"Was laughing at your expression."

"Oh."

"What about adult movies?"

"Um, I think I liked the horror movies best."

"Why the horror movies?"

"I guess I just like the jump scares and stuff."

"Because you jump on me whenever something pops up out of nowhere," Windblade teased.

"So? It gets you in my lap too."

Windblade chuckled, "You can get me in your lap any time you want," she whispered to him seductively.

"Good," he said before he grabbed her and pulled her onto his lap.

"Just be careful," she giggled.

"Ain't I always?"

"Yes," she whispered before giving him a soft kiss.

Grimlock watched the two for a moment before taking a sip of his Energon. He wondered what it was like to kiss someone.

Bumblebee looks at him, "You okay, Grim?"

"Huh? Oh yeah, I'm fine," he replied with an unconvincing smile.

"You sure?"

"Yep, I'm gonna smash some rocks in the quarry," he replied as he transformed into his dino form and took off.

"OK. See ya, Grim!" Bumblebee called after him before looking at the two who were locked in a kiss, "So, what you two gonna do today?"

Windblade broke from the kiss, "I don't think you want to know," she let out a giggle as Sideswipe started kissing her neck.

~~~~~~~~~~

Grimlock let out a yell as he swung his tail, shattering a boulder into smaller rocks.

"Are you alright, Grimlock?" Drift asked as he walked up to the Dinobot being careful not to get in his way.

"Kind of. Have... have you ever kissed anyone?" He asked with hesitation.

"No, I haven't. Why?"

"I was just wondering. Sideswipe and Windblade seem to enjoy it a lot, so does Steeljaw and Strongarm, and Thunderhoof and Metalsound."

"You never kissed before?"

"No," Grimlock replied feeling embarrassed.

"And you want to try it, am I right?"

"Yeah, just to see what it's like."

"Hmm, well maybe you can find someone to experience it with."

"But who?" The Dinobot asked as he sat on a rock.

"Not sure, you'll have to figure it out yourself."

Grimlock crossed his arms as he tried to think. The only ones he knew that had experience already had mates, there was no way he was going to ask Ultra Magnus. Optimus and Megatron were together and he doubted Drift would even let him.

"Good luck with it," Drift tells him as he walks off.
