The Magnus approached with a smile at his crewmates.

"Boss-bot!" Bumblebee called out relieved seeing the familiar blue and red bot and hopped up and rushed over to him

"Bumblebee." He smiled at the rambunctious yellow bot he had found himself missing in their time apart, "Ratchet, Bulkhead." He chuckled as he walked over to his other friends

His optics darted to you and Jazz, the both of you gave a polite greeting. Being you only nodded to the Magnus and Jazz gave a friendly wave with the arm that wasn't wrapped around your waist. Optimus found himself growing jealous at the sight but gave the both of you a nod before turning his attention to his three friends.

"It has been too long." Optimus smiled at them, "But you guys didn't have to come yet, not for another mega-cycle or so." He chuckled rubbing the back of his helm, "We can head to my office to chat if you wish."

"Only if I can take that hot-rod for out for lunch after." Bumblebee shot a grin to the object of the former primes awkward feelings, you didn't give the bot any response behind an annoyed look

"Bumblebee! That's rude!" Optimus scolded, "You don't- You don't get to objectifiy random bots like that!" He huffed in annoyance

"Oh cool your sensors Boss-bot, I'm only playing around!" The young bot once again shrugged off the scolding, "Anyway show us to the way to your big fancy office!" He laughed in a chipper tone starting away down the hall

"Bumblebee- wait-" The Magnus sighed and looked to the two primes, his deamor softened a little at the sight of your faint amused looking smile, "I apologize if he bothered you guys.."

"We should go after him prime, before he get into more trouble, one we can't pull him out of." Ratchet stated simply an air of annoyance flowing through his tone

"And we need to get some snacks." Jazz chuckled giving you a playful squeeze causing a soft silent chuckle to shake your shoulders, "We'll see you around then Magnus."

With that both you and Jazz strode away, side by side. The Magnus frowned a little before turning to Ratchet and Bulkhead. He adjusted his grip on the Magnus hammer with a soft hum.

"We should catch up to Bumblebee," He said with a nod humming, "Who knows if he knows where the Magnus office is."

With that the former Prime turned to follow after where the yellow bot had ran off too, his thoughts clouded as he walked along looking for the small yellow bot. He should have known, both you and Jazz seemed so close already- how could be be so stupid?

Someone as interesting as you, of course you would have a mate already! It didn't sting any less as the Magnus tried his best to accept this fact. He told himself that he had to apologize to you once he got the chance to do so.

Stupid.

Stupid.

Still that same prime from millenia ago.

Stupid and young.
