Save my heart (Sunstreaker)

* Chapter 10. Lies *

Finally, weekend. I curled back up and faced the wall, snoozing a little. My mom walked in. "Paige, are you getting up? You have a guest," she said. I turned, slightly irritated. "Is it Sunstreaker?" I asked. She shook her head. "Then it's not important," I sulked and curled back up. "Paige, can you be a little bit nicer towards Ben?" Mom sounded strict. "He seriously doesn't get it, is it?" I snapped, getting up and grabbed my clothing. "Paige." I looked at my mom. "Do I need to talk in a different language?" I am not interested in him," I hissed quietly. "I have planned something else for today," I muttered. "Like what?" she asked. "I have Sunny's number... I am going to ask him to meet me today," I said. My mom crossed her arms. "No, you're not," she said. I sighed, "I first kick Ben out of the house and then I go," I scowled, turning around. Mom grabbed my arm and looked warningly at me. "Don't do this. Don't, okay? I love Sunny," I mumbled. She shook her head. "He's an alien, Paige. You can't date an alien," she said. "Why not?" I asked. "You know why. He's a psychopath for starters, he ignores you, he's selfish and arrogant, isn't that what you told me? Beside, Sunstreaker is one arth with a mission, to fight the Decepticons, not find a human he can date."

"He doesn't hate me..." I mumbled. "No, but he doesn't like you either," she snapped before turning around and walking off. For so far, my mom has always supported me but the idea of dating an alien disgusted her for some reason. Sunstreaker is only a robotic organism and much bigger than I am but beside that, humans and Cybertronians have quite some things in common. I dressed up and thought about it for some time. My entire mood was ruined the moment I walked into the living room. "Before you say something... I am sorry for what happened the other day.' I sighed softly and crossed my arms. "Just tell me what you want..." I muttered. "You;d like to have breakfast with me?" he asked. Actually, no but my mom will be disappointed if I say no. Sometimes I feel like I am not able to please anyone in this world. Not my parents, not Lennox, not Sunstreaker and even myself.

"FIne..." I mumbled. He took me to a lunchroom. Because I have been stalking Sunny for some time, I know that he loves to come here too. I know everything about him, what he loves to eat, what he loves to drink, his favorite restaurants and shops, his daily routines, everything. I think Mirage would be jealous of how good my spy skills are. People can say I am obsessed with him. I don;t like him because of his alt-mode, I just love him in general. The only thing I wasn't aware of was his taste in females. What type of girls does he like? Sometimes I doubted he even wanted to date someone and not that he's a psychopath. He always acts so cold and heartless.

We settled down and ordered something to drink. "Are you still pissed?" Ben questioned. "Little bit, yes," I replied, leaning back in the chair and looking around. "Can you forgive me?" he asked. "Then don't push me," I sulked. He raised his hands in peace, "okay, okay..." he flashed me a smile that I couldn't return. "So... I was thinking, would you like to do something fun next weekend?" he asked. "Something fun?" I repeated. "Yeah, maybe a weekend in New York?" he suggested. I am sure my mom told him about New York because I told her I would love to go to New York with Sunstreaker and visit some art galleries. It's one big conspiracy. "I am actually really busy next weekend... maybe another time."

"With what?" he asked. "An extra shift at work," I replied. He hummed. I need to be careful with the things I tell him because I really got the vibe they're talking to each other behind my back. "I got asked by Lennox... he said he'd like me to have me next weekend as well," I said and shrugged. "Oh, okay," he mumbled. A complete lie of course but I am going to do something next weekend. My parents aren't home. Not sure what yet.

When I got back home, I started to do some research on where I could possibly go. My mom walked in. "How was it?" she asked. "Food was good. I am really busy next weekend, I'll be staying at the base for a couple of days," I lied. "Ah, okay." she said and shut the door."You know that I am only trying to protect you, right?" she asked. I looked up from my computer. "Yup... I know but you keep telling me that," I muttered. "Sometimes I feel like I am not able to please anyone... especially dad. No matter what I do, what I say or which decisions I make he's always disappointed in me. "That just really hurts. I would like some support from you about Sunstreaker. You don't have to like it but can you at least pretend?" I asked. "I am not four years old anymore," I sulked. "I know honey, but there are better men than Sunstreaker you can get," she said before leaving. All I could do was roll my eyes. "But I don't want anyone else," I sulked.

The next day, I was at work and like usually, I was quite early at work. I saw Sunstreaker a little further away. This morning, I spent my morning adding some make-up on my face. I walked up to him, "hi..." he glanced at me. "Are you busy this weekend?" I asked. "Why?" he asked. "Just curious..." I said. "Well, I thought... Maybe we can hang out," I said. "I don't hang out with humans," he scowled. "Alright," I said and turned around. "Wait..." I stopped and turned around. "What did you had in mind?" he asked. I shrugged, "I was thinking about... Atlantic city," I said. "Oh, we are going on a little trip then?" he asked. I shrugged, "I already knew your answer but I wanted to ask you anyway," I said. "Why?" he asked. "I would like to do something with you," I said. "You have a weekend?" he asked. I nodded, "How did you imagine to end up in Atlantic city. The train, I have looked it up," I said. He hummed, "or we take a N.E.S.T Private plane we fly to Florida."

I scanned his face to see if he was serious, hut he was. "Florida?" I was surprised. "You wanted to do something, right?" he asked, passing me. I sprinted after him, "Y-yeah... I--" he glanced at me. "Alright, settled. Friday 3 PM here in the hanger and don't be late," he said. I stopped talking and watched him disappear.
