Just You and Me (Knockout x Reader)

Chapter 20: No More Talking Cars Please

Smokescreen looked at you with his eyes widened as he seemed fearful yet concerned. He knew that he had fucked up but he was nervous. He didn't want to lose your friendship or fling, or whatever the hell it was. He stood there a few feet away from your unmade bed looking at the floor. He dare not look in your direction for fear you might pounce and attack him like a vicious cat. You sat with your knees pulled to your chest with tears rolling down your cheeks as you cried silently. Your face was red and you squeezed your eyes shut. You wanted him gone, to leave, and never come back. You wanted to erase Knockout from your mind, but your own thoughts betrayed you. He was all you could think about. As mad as you were at Smokescreen and you knew damn well how aware he was of your state right now. You couldn't help but want him to sit next to you and engulf himself around you. To feel the comfort of someone who cared. You wanted someone to cry on. Yet he just stood there looking at his air forces. You bit your bottom lip and sat up wiping the tears with the back of your hand. You looked in his vicinity and he looked the opposite way. You mustered up a few words.

"Please leave..." You shuttered as he flenched at your voice breaking the silence.

"I..I can't. Not like this. I have to say something to try and help this situation." He said locking eyes with you. His blue eyes pierced through yours as he never broke contact and walked closer to you. You glare but allowed him to sit next to you.

"Hurry it up." You rested your head back on your knees.

"I'm sorry and I know nothing I can say will make you feel any different but please let me try. This wasn't your fault it was mine. I knew you had a boyfriend yet I let my own fantasies take over. I feel like I kept coming onto you and you finally gave in to me or maybe you just told me you liked me too since that's what I wanted to hear. I was so dumb to think this was right. I knew it was wrong deep down as well. I just liked you so much it clouded my judgment. I know how much you loved him and I could never have that. And I don't want to be the one who ruins your relationship. I wanna make this right. I'm gonna go to him and tell him. He can't leave you and he shouldn't have blamed you. You were hurt and confused and didn't know what was going on while he was gone when I and the other Autobots saved you. I want you to be happy and only he can make you that way." He said as you sat up and swung your legs over the side of the bed. You took a deep breath.

"This is both of our faults. I led you on out of my own loneliness. I never faked my feelings I actually liked you and hell I still do. I'm sorry as well. I was alone in that base and I felt so depressed so when you started talking to me I opened up and I got attached to the first feeling that someone was there for me. I was just glad to have someone to talk to. And I became close to you. I guess we were bound to get caught one day. Better sooner than later when things are really in deep. No don't say anything to him right now he needs time. He is just as upset if not worst. Same with me I need time alone without Autobots and cons. I just need space. I'm sorry Smokescreen but I don't want aliens in my life right now."

He nodded and stood up. "I guess I'll see you in the future then. I hope you heal from this mess and aren't too hard on yourself." He felt his spark skip a few beats as he fought back tears. He walked towards the door of your room and looked back one more time. You glanced at him as he waved.

"Um, goodbye (Y/N)." He turned away and walked out of your room leaving you there alone. After a few moments, you hear the door downstairs close. You look out the window and hear a car startup. You see him in his alt mode backing out of the driveway slowly once he is on the road he takes off.

"Goodbye Smokey.."
