Hidden Spark on Earth (TFP)

Chapter 57

The following day came around, and Saphira awoke to Optimus's chassis. The two had spent the rest of the previous day taking it slow. While they were having their lunch, Ratchet had come in to check and make sure Optimus was not doing anything strenuous. Of course, he found Optimus sitting on the floor with Saphira on his knee, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. In fact, Saphira practiced the tune to the song she wanted to pay tribute to her mother for Optimus and he thoroughly enjoyed it, and looked forward to Saphira singing the actual song.

After that, Saphira had done some defensive training and Zumba, which she changed the dance moves slightly to move more seductively in front of Optimus. The autobot found himself having a difficult time containing himself and the two almost interfaced again that night, but Saphira ended up falling asleep after they simply made out. She was naked on top of Optimus's chassis right now, his hand was over her body, keeping her nice and warm through the cool night.

She stretched out her limbs and kissed the chassis, hearing a gentle hum in response and she looked up to see Optimus's bright optics. "Morning, Optimus." She smiled at him as she rubbed her eyes as she wakes up. "I had a really good dream..."

Optimus smiled as he listened to her. "What kind of dream?"

"I dreamed...we were laying together...on a dull, cream, sandy beach on a private island, where no one could see us..." Saphira closed her eyes as she thought about the wonderful dream she had through the night. "It wasn't a tropical island, but it wasn't cold either. The breeze was cool, the sand was warm. We had just finished building a sandcastle...one that was about Ratchet's size. I am covered in sand, so you suggest we both go for a swim." Optimus's smile widened as he listened to her dream, it sounded wondered. "You removed my sand covered clothes for me and we went into the water. There was a reef surrounding the island, and we both swam through the water together, looking at the coral, fish and other sea creatures of the reef. And the water was...so calm and relaxing...even some nurse sharks swam by, and kept a close eye on us."

"That sounds very beautiful," Optimus comments as he listened to her. "Perhaps..."

"I am not finished, Optimus," Saphira interrupts gently with a smile. Optimus closed his mouth and hummed gently, letting her go ahead with the dream she wanted to tell him about. "While we swam...three orcas swam beside us. They call out to one another, they danced in the waves and swam around us. And they stayed with us until we returned to the shallows where you carried me out and we sat on the beach until we dried out. And just as the day was ending...you pulled out a picnic basket and blanket, spreading it out underneath a tree, where I ate some food and you had a cube. But as we lay there...we are pulled to each other and interfaced...it was pure bliss."

Optimus hummed again, the rumble in his chest was gentle and he gently lifts her closer to his face to kiss her. "That sounds like a wonderful dream, Saphira. Perhaps it could be something we end up doing...if there is no threat to stop us, of course."

Saphira chuckled softly and kissed Optimus passionately, massaging his cheeks gently. "I would love that...just like you want to take me to a beach to find bioluminescent plankton. I dream of being able to do a lot with you, Optimus. And when we finally become sparkmates...I know we will have amazing experiences."

Optimus huffed gently and looked her in the eye. "Saphira, I view you as my sparkmate, even though we are not yet bonded fully yet." She was curious about that, she already heard Ratchet hinting at that, and she figured there was a reason for that. "I don't want you to think that we are not."

She smiled at him before her expression changed to curiosity. "What do you mean by not yet bonded, anyway? I know Ratchet said the bond has begun partially. I would like to know what he means by that."
