"See you in a bit OP!" You shout while climbing out of the red and blue truck, grabbing your bag in the process but failing to notice how your diary falls out onto one of the seats. Once out, you shut the door and wave as Optimus flickers his headlights at you before driving back to the base. You'd never admit it to anyone but you've found yourself taking a liking to the mech... Well it was more like a crush, but not any crush you've ever had, you like him way more then you've ever liked any other human. It is quite unusual so you tend to ignore it despite how hard it gets when he speaks and sometimes even when he transformers.. Once the red and blue truck is out of your view, you walk inside your house and place your bag on the couch next to you as you reach for the TV remote.
At the base:
Optimus has just arrived, he transformers but abruptly stops when he feels something being tossed around in his chassi. However, before he gets the chance to investigate what was in his chassi, Ratchet sighs, "Those humans really do tire a bot out after a while don't they." The statement brings a rare but beautiful smile to the Prime's face plates and distracts him from checking what was possibly left when he dropped you off, at least he assumes it was something belonging to you.
"Y/Ns the only one who's genuinely calm." Ratchet continues. Optimus shakes his helm before saying, "Trust me, you've not seen her when she gets really excited about her f/m(favourite movie)." The prime remembers when he first asked you why you liked it so much and you both just sat for Groons while you explained. "She's good company." Optimus adds. Ratchet nods in agreement as he goes back to looking at the screens he was before Optimus arrived. The only reason Optimus returned to the base was because he had one final patrol to do before returning to your house.
Optimus is finishing up his patrol as he remembers the object that was previously tossing around his chassi a few groons ago. Curious, he opens it up and sees what was being tossed around, your diary. The prime pulls it out before shutting his chassi again, his optics fixed on the little book. Despite how he wants to give you your privacy, he feels like its important to see what you write about incase it ever got into the wrong hands. After convincing himself that it would be reasonable to read it, he keeps it close to his frame as he finishes his patrol before returning to the base yet again.
Once Optimus arrives, he's quite desperate to read it, he knows he shouldn't but he can't help himself. The prime gives a glance around to make sure that he was truly alone before delicately placing it on the platform the humans stand on and using the end of one digit to flip the first few pages. The mech skim reads through the pages until he spots something that catches his optics. His name. He stops for a while, questioning why you'd write about him in your diary before he continues. His optics widen as he reads one specific sentence, "Today, I've realised I'm in love with my guardian and best friend (I'm never telling Miko that) Optimus. The Prime feels his face plates heat up from the confession you made to your diary and quickly shuts the book before shoving it back into his chassi. It was about time he went back to your house to guard it for the night anyways.
He pulls up outside your house, unable to think of anything other than that page. He'll have to confront you about it in the morning.
The next day, you eagerly rush out your house, almost forgetting to lock the door before running towards the truck and quickly climbing in the already open door. Once you've finished fastening the seat belt, you look over to the other seat and spot your diary laying on the seat. "Oh! It must have fell out of my bag when I got out yesterday!" You say, smile never faltering. Optimus starts driving and the atmosphere becomes very uncomfortable as the prime fails to engage in your normal morning talks besides a few Okays. After you're half way to the base you decide to break the silence and ask, "Alright, what's up OP?"
You hear a deep vent before the truck speaks, "I uhm- we need to talk." He replies. You begin to feel uneasy, thinking about all the the things that could be wrong until he speaks again and it's as if your heart stops, "Y/n.. I read your diary." You feel the dread sink in as the realisation hit you.. when he said he read your dairy, he meant the pages about him. You manage to stutter out, "Look, please don't be mad!" Before you manage to say anything else, Optimus interrupts you, "I'm not mad, quite the opposite actually." A look of confusion crosses your face at his words. You're about to speak before he whispers, "I feel the same.." Your cheeks turn a deep red as a look of disbelief appears on your face. "Are you serious?" You ask. The prime chuckles and replies, "Yes I am, and I'm willing to try and be what you humans call a couple if you are." Your look of disbelief changes to a large smile as you say, "I'd love to try it!" The conversation comes to an end as you reach the base, both of you a lot happier than you were at the start of the ride.
