𝐏𝐎𝐏𝐂𝐎𝐑𝐍 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐀 𝐆𝐈𝐅𝐓 from the gods, he swore. He shoved that stuff into his mouth as if his life depended on it even though his holoform didn't even need it. The buttery-goodness was just too much for the mech to handle.
"Would you quit chewing so loud?" Eclipse whispered as she intently watched the movie on the big screen in front of them.
The movie theatres were a common visit for the pair given how easily they could sneak in and out without paying. Getting the popcorn was a little harder but so worth it in his opinion.
He eyed the femme next to him, raising a brow when he noticed how wide her eyes were staring at the newest Disney movie on the screen. Was that admiration?
By the time the movie ended and they were walking out, Bumblebee was a little saddened that the popcorn was all gone as he tossed the bag out into the nearest trash, and Eclipse was already rambling about the film.
"Wasn't it just so romantic?" She gushed, holding her chest where her spark should be, "It was just so cute. He let her go despite the fact he loved her. And their ballroom dance, primus..."
He nodded though he hadn't paid too close attention to the movie. The scout just watched inquisitively as she spun happily on their way out, clearly fantasizing about the movie Beauty and the Beast.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐈𝐓 hadn't died down anytime soon afterward. That much he had noticed. The mech had never seen her so infatuated with a movie before.
For example, they were out for a drive once, just letting the silence linger peacefully as their alts drove beside one another. But then he heard the music coming from within, that one song from the movie he vaguely remembered the scene in which it was played.
Then again when they were just trying to recharge, humming the same tune to herself as she drifted off.
In his spare time, the scout decided to watch the movie again on his own. This time, he paid just a little closer attention until the scene came on with that song that she so adored, holding the same title as the movie.
Huh, so this is what has her all worked up?
He returned to their hotel room they decided to stay in for a bit during their endless travels all over the world. They were making their rest stop somewhere in New York, secretly occupying an unused room.
Bumblebee opened and shut the door to their room silently, scanning the dark room for the femme. There was no sign of life, and he began to even wonder if she had gone out before he rounded the corner, finding her form sprawled out face first on the bed. Her red hair was messily laid out to cover whatever wasn't hidden in the white comforter. There was nothing but window drapes open, the city lights and moon being the only thing that bathed the room for them to see.
He silently chuckled at the sight, sitting down on the bed beside her. She felt the bed dip then a hand weaving through the tangled mess and she hummed in delight.
Only when he pulled his hand away did she turn her head to look up at him with tired eyes, "Why'd you stop?"
He smirked mischievously, causing the femme to wake up a little.
With her eyes squinted suspiciously, he gingerly led her out of bed, much to her dismay. He stopped them both in the middle of the room, grabbing her hands.
⁖ Remind me, how does that song you always hum go? ⁖
Eclipse chuckled slightly before humming the familiar tune. When his hands gripped her waist, she almost stopped but he nodded for her to keep going.
In confusion, she followed his lead as they began slow dancing in the dim lighting of their hotel room.
"Where'd this come from?" She asked curiously, not that she minded.
His chest was pressed close to her own, their fingers interlaced together while the others draped across each other's body. Dancing was familiar with the two, and he certainly knew much better how to move on his feet than before he met her.
⁖ This is your favorite scene, right? ⁖
She didn't get to reply as he attempt to repeat the spin movement they did in the movie. He lifts her up to his side as they spin, staring deeply into one another's eyes. Only Bee lifted her up to his side to mimic that romantic scene only to lose his balance in the process, not knowing how to do it correctly. Her humming abruptly stopped as they both tumbled onto the bed beside them, luckily not the floor.
They both laughed, one inaudible, but the pure joy on their faces said it all. As the moment began to fade away, the peaceful and relaxed Autobots turned toward one another, expecting looks on their faces.
⁖ This bed really is so comfy. ⁖
"Isn't it?" She gasped scooting up to the pillows. She grabbed one and buried her head into it as she curled into a comfortable ball. Sometimes recharging in her holoform had its perks.
Bumblebee scooted up after her, pulling the fluffy blanket on top of them both before wrapping his arms around her. His chin rested right on top of her shoulder, the blond strands of hair tickling the side of her face.
She hummed, closing her eyes, "I could recharge here forever."
He eyed her below him before closing his own eyes.
⁖ You can say that again. ⁖
