Shiny Rocks

The children's laughter echoed throughout the base. They were playing video games and getting competitive. The two youngest bots, you and Bumblebee were watching. Raf as always was winning leaving a distraught Miko in his dust. When the race was over and Raf won Miko tossed the controller to Jack. Suddenly her face lit up and she threw herself over the back of the couch. You laughed and watched the teenage girl struggle to get the three feet to you. "Y/n, Y/n, look what I found for you!!!" 

The girl reached into her pockets, one hand in each. After digging around she yanked her hands out and shoved them in your direction. They had about three different rocks and crystals in each hand. In one hand there was a rose quartz and amazonite with a heart-shaped rock. The other hand held a fluorite, a bloodstone, and another rock that was almost in the shape of a perfect circle. You gasped and held your servo out and she dropped the rocks in your palm. You looked at the shiny rocks with a big smile. "Y/n? What is it you have?" 

You looked up and met Miko's eyes when you heard your sire's voice questioning you. You both started to giggle and you sat the human girl on your shoulder before you turned to face him. There stood the leader of the Autobots, you sire, with his helm cocked to the side. You smiled up at him earning a barely noticeable smile in return. You hold your servo up for him to see. He bent down to get a closer look, taking your servo in his to hold it still. "Are those... rocks?" 

"No, sire. They are Crystals. I research them and found some humans believe they have 'magical' properties." Your sweet smile would melt even the coldest of sparks. The corners of Optimus' intake flick upward just slightly. His much larger servo left yours and cups your faceplates. You lean into his touch as he lovingly rubs his thumb against your cheek. "It brings me joy, My Spark, seeing you finding a hobby. However, the light in your optics is all the magic I need." 

Your smile widened as you gently set Miko down before hugging your sire, your small arms wrapping around his midsection. Without wasting a moment, his arms were around your shoulders returning the hug. It was rare for Optimus to show any kind of emotions, let alone show affection. You, however, were his child. You got away with these types of things. The sound of a camera going off followed by the flash caught your attention. Miko was holding her phone out in front of her face smiling widely. "AWEEE." 

"Miko!" You both gave the human girl a stern look. She chuckled shyly and scratched the back of her head. You let out a sigh and shook your helm. You picked the young girl back up and turned to the hallway leading to your berthroom. You looked over your shoulder, "Sire? Would you like to see my collection of shiny rocks?" 

"I would love to see your shiny rocks, My spark."
