It was chilly here, but it warmed my heart to be greeted by a familiar face, the fresh mountain air was definitely a plus. I had gotten woken up from recharge in the middle of a night because a fluffy gray cat was tiptoeing across my hood, leaving little paw marks in the frost, I laughed to myself when I imagined what ratchet would say! He hated cats!
Dakota walked out through the gate first thing, smiling down at me, I thought she was going to cry again but I was proven wrong.
She had a rag with her as well as some plastic cases which I couldn't quite get a good look at
The girl began drying my logo on the side of my body, before opening a package.
I
COULDNT
BELIEVE
MY
OPTICS
SHE WAS PLASTERING AUTOBOT LOGOS ALL OVER ME!!
on my hubcaps, and my steering wheel, as well as under my 'Camaro' logo on either side of me.
I had to admit, this girls faith in me was undeniably amazing, she had just bought a random car, and believed with everything in her heart that I was the real deal.
She then looked to my hood and laughed
"Looks like pillow likes you" she smiled.
Pillow? Was that the cat perhaps?
The girl shivered and I noticed the goosebumps littering her skin in the T shirt she was wearing.
She climbed in the drivers seat and I took the liberty of heating up the seats for her.
It was my first sign
She had no keys, my engine was off, and the seats heated up.
I thought maybe if I dropped enough hints she'd figure it out but she froze for a moment
"No...no no Dakota, just the sun shining down on it" she shook her head and smiled
"You Have no idea how amazing this is!....being here with you"
A voice called from outside the house and she opened the doors.
"What dad?"
"I said breakfast is ready, come eat"
She gave me a quick kiss on the wheel and spoke a sudden "later bee" before heading inside.
I could really get used to this place, but I was curious to see the rest of the town,
It's as if she read my processor! Because before I knew it she was heading back out again, this time dressed warmer than her pajama T shirt and she held keys in her hand.
"Do the speed limit! You're not a professional" her dad joked
"YET!" She yelled before closing the door and turning on my engine, revving a couple times before it settled back down to a mere idle
Professional what? I had to many questions for this girl, but I didn't know if it was the right time.
We drove through another town and she spoke to me "see buddy, that's Bieber, we live in Nubieber"
With her phone hooked up we both rocked out to some tunes on our way to where ever we were going
Little did I know we were on our way to meet Nikki, a kid I will later find out that likes Dakota, and his sexual gestures make me quite uncomfortable at times.
"BRO! HOLY FUCKING SHIT YOU WERENT KIDDING!" The blonde spoke getting in the passengers seat
"I know!" She said enthusiastically, telling him all about me, I glowed with pride as she praised my abilities.
The ride home was just them talking, except for when he had a little freak out in the front seat and set his hand on her leg
I slammed his head against the dashboard and then back again, roughing him up a bit
"Nikki! I'm so sorry are you okay!?" She had a smile on her face attempting not to laugh when she pulled over to check on him
"Dude what the hell?" He groaned, rubbing his head and scrunching his eyebrows together
I decided to show off and send a second sign
With my radio I spoke "hands off the Lady!..."
her face lit up again and she looked down at my wheel, I think she's got it!
Please please have it!
I begged mentally. I had hoped she picked up this time! It was just too obvious at this point
And with her being as smart as she was I thought I made it pretty obvious
We had made it back to the house that afternoon and after a few uncomfortable hours that they were left alone in her house, his parents came and picked him up.
Late that night when the stars were once more blanketed across the sky, the cool air nipped at my tires layering more frost across them.
She came out to me. With a couple blankets, some pillows and what looked to be an art book.
She was dressed in the cutest little pajama outfit, it looked just like my old mech form back on cybertron. It brought warmth to my heart and she climbed in my back seat, making what she had called a "pillow nest" Dakota then cuddled up to my seats and began sketching away. I used my rear view mirrors to peek at what she drew, it was a picture of me!
This girl was absolutely talented, drawing my yellow muscle car body followed by my black stripes.
It had been somewhat of a busy first day and this was the best way to spend the night. She began to drift off to sleep and I took the liberty of heating up my cab for her. Letting the gentle purr of my engine lull her to sleep
Half asleep she closed her book and nuzzled into my padding, with a smile and soft sigh she whispered
"Your secret is safe with me" before completely drifting off.
I pulled her close with my seatbelts and spoke softly to her through the radio
"Thanks sweet- sp..ark"
Her eyes opened in a half lidded manner and she was taken away with a dream.
"You're too good for this place bumblebee"
