Arcee froze in place.

  "Just...give me a chance to prove to you that this can work, that we are...compatible.  Arcee, I do love you and I get the feeling that you just might feel the same way about me so please, please give it a chance." he begged 

  Arcee was caught in his gaze and the sincerity of his plea.  She had not once tried to deny the way she felt about him, she just hadn't spoken it out loud.  "Maybe I should deny it." she thought but she couldn't bring herself to lie to him.

  "You said you trusted me with your spark, now I'm asking you to trust me with your heart."

  "That's not fair Jack." she said.

  He smiled "On earth we say that all's fair in love and war."

  Arcee slumped into the wall of the canyon signaling her surrender.

  "You know you can be really corny, Jack" she said 

   Jack was still smiling.  "I guess when you're confessing your love, it can be hard to avoid sounding corny." he said moving closer to her face.

  "How can you feel that way about me, Jack?" she asked brushing his cheek with the back of her index finger.  "All that emotion; I've never felt anything like it."

  "How could I not feel that way about such an amazing girl?" he asked and he kissed her.

  Arcee tried to resist but the compulsion was too strong and she kissed him back.  

  Jack kissed her for several seconds then pulled away.  "I can feel your heart beat." he smiled.  "Do you still trust me?" he asked in a whisper.

  Arcee nodded.  "Of course." she said matching his tone.

  "Then open your breast plate for me." at that moment Jack would have sworn that he had seen a slight glow of Energon in Arcee's cheeks.  He leaned back taking his weight off her chest, she was defiantly hesitating.  "What was that inappropriate?" he asked with a grin that clearly said I hope so.

  "No." she said shaking her head.  "It's just that I've never exposed my spark-chamber to anyone other than a medic.  For us it's the ultimate sign of trust.  You've seen this armor take direct hits from blaster fire and punches from the biggest cons, without it, I am completely vulnerable." then without warning the different parts that made up her breastplate shifted out of the way. 

  In the center of Arcee's chest was a circular faceplate.  It had several thin glowing lines crisscrossing it in intricate patterns and for the moment it was all that had jacks attention.

  "This Jack is my spark-chamber it holds my life force; if something happens to it I cease to be."

  "Is it...Is it okay if I touch it?" he asked looking up into her eyes.

  "If you were anybody else I would say no."

  Jack looked down at her spark-chamber and back up at her face.  She nodded to him.  Jack reached out slowly with both hands, his eyes flashed up to meet hers watching him and then back to her chest.  His hands made contact with the center of her spark-chamber.  The intricate pattern of lines flashed brightly, Arcee shivered, breathing deeply, and so did jack.  He quickly jerked his hands away.
