Alexis's pov

I walked out the door to my house as the sun shone brightly on my face. my earphones were placed in my ears, emitting the song Aint it fun by Paramore into my ears. I stood on the sidewalk for a second, looking around. I stepped forward and then stopped. I looked around just once more and skipped the song.
"Something big i feel it happening out of my control~"  i jogged down the street keeping my pace the same the whole time. About five minutes into my run a song came into play and i stopped running.
"She would not show that she was afraid, but being and feeling alone was too much to face, though everyone said that she was so strong, what they didnt know was that she could barley carry on, but she knew that she would be okay, so she didnt let it get in her way, sometimes it all gets a little too much, but you've gotta realize that soon the fog will clear up, and you dont have to, be okay, because were all the same, and we know that sometimes it all gets a little too much~" i paused the song and sat in the grass staring at the forest in front of me. I held my cell phone in my hand as i clicked play again focusing on the words.
"She would always tell us how she could do this, she would use no help it would be just fine, but when it got hard she would loose her focus, so take my hand it will be alright~" i heard tires kicking up gravel on the road in front of me so i stood up and paused the music. I looked at the car and saw that it was just a plain car, no decepticon nor autobot. I always have to keep my guard up, what if i get kidnapped? I kept my headphones in my ears as i walked the rest of my daily run. I made it to the city, about 15 miles north of base. I walked to the gas station and kept my head down low as i stepped in.
     The cold air conditioning swept across my body in a rush as i walked to the counter. I picked up a package of a hersheys chocolate bar and a pack of gum.
"Just this?" the cashier said before looking up. When he did his face displayed a painful smirk. "How are ya doin little lady?" he asked keeping the smirk steady on his face. "Got a 'little' guy friend?" he asked walking around the counter. I backed up but i hit something hard.
"Yes, she does" his deep voice rumbled through my ears. Ironhide. "Leave her alone," he barked out putting a hand on my shoulder. How did he know i was here? Better question, where is maddie? Maddie now looks the equivalent to a 20 year old...i honestly want to cry every time i think of her.
"Oh you wont do anything." he said touching my shoulder. "Who is this guy friend of yours honey?" he asked. I flinched at the look on his face. Lie. He wants me to lie and say i dont know him. Its like the words are written on his face. I look up at Ironhide and take another step back letting the guys hand fall off of my shoulder.
"This guy right here," i looked at Hide again, "He is my husband, and i think we both would appreciate it if you just let me pay for my things and leave. The guy looked disbelieving and then he looked at Ironhide. His face looked distorted for a second then he looked scared. He shook his head before walking back behind the counter.
"Here. Its on me. Just leave." he tossed them to me before sinking into the back and not coming out. I turned to Hide and hugged him tight. How can people be so cruel in the world. I felt safe in the embrace of him, his arms secured tightly around me as he pulled me outside.
"Im so glad i got to you in time," he said before closing his eyes tightly. "It was strange, i had a vision about this. I seen this. I seen you. I dont know how or why but thank Primus i did." i smiled widely.
"I love you Ironhide." i stood up on my tippy toes and pecked his lips but he had other ideas. He pushed his hand on the small of my back and held me to him. He lifted my up so i was standing on his feet as he kissed my lips delicately.
"Primus i love you too" he whispered when we parted. He helped me into his Alt before we headef back to my house. Basically this house was my moms but she signed it over to me. Ive had it for a Very Long time i just never go here anymore. But after maddies change i come more often.

Ironhides pov
I drove Alexis to her house in silence. If i wouldn't have gotten to her in time what would have happened? What if she had gotten hurt?
"Stop. Stop it. Dont do that to yourself." Alexis said and i looked over at her. She was staring at my holoform.
"What?"
"Stop. Dont degrade yourself because of something stupid. I dont know whats going on with me but i can hear people's thoughts...i could hear the guys thoughts in the gas station...i can hear yours." she sighed and ran a hand down her face. I love her. I just wish i could have been there sooner. What was he thinking? Oh god. She could hear it. What did i do wrong? Gosh this is all my fault! Ugh i dont deserve her. I can barely even protect her!
"Ironhide ENOUGH!" she yelled. She pushed herself into the middle. "Pull over." she whispered into my ear. I did. She pushed her feet behind her and laid her head in my lap. I could feel her body moving up and down. Was she crying? "Gosh i love you Ironhide, why cant you see that? I want to be with you! You save me, you make me feel move alive. Everytime i catch you looking back at me my heart skips a beat. Remember when we were younger and they were filming the transformers movies? Remember when i first fell in love with you? Remember when i got pregnant? Remember when you held Maddison for the first time? Remember when we got married? Remember the honeymoon you still owe me?" she paused to laugh and wipe something off of my cheeks. A tear. When did i start crying?
"Ironhide, you mean the world to me...no you are my world. I love you so much. You may not think you deserve me but look at me. Im here, im alive, im happy. You are my everything. I love you" she whispered 'i love you' to me and i pulled her face up to mine and i kissed her. Long and hard, but still gentle and soft. She is like that piece of glass that can break so easily but looks as though it will never even crack. "remember ironhide, our story is just beginning. Lets be a fairytail and finish with a happy ending. Lets go out with a bang. I love you." she said and then sat up in my lap. "Im driving us home!" she giggled as she sat in my lap and pushed the pedal. She basically floored it to a turn and we rounded the corner and she pushed the pedal farther and we floored it all the way to her house. She hit the brakes and parked the car getting out. She walked up to the doorstep. A clap of thunder roared through the sky as it started sprinkling. She turned around and looked at me. She slowly stepped down each step one at a time.
(Play the song Amazed by lonestar here!)
She walked over to me and i walked over to her, we met in the middle. She gave me her hand and we both smiled knowing what we were about to do. The rain picked up speed a little as she laid her hand on my shoulder and then...we danced. Step after step. We danced through the rain. Her eyes lit up the whole time. She had this insanely wide smile plastered onto her face the whole time. I spun her with her finger and then pulled her close to my chest again. Ratchets ambulance pulled up but we didnt stop. Maddison got out of the car and socdid ratchet.
"C-can i join you?" she asked. I dont even know how i could ever say no. I reached my hand out and pulled her close to me. The two loves of my life here in my arms. Together. One big happy family. We spun around in the ran. There smiles were wide and
There eyes were glistening. Alexis looked at Ratchet then to Maddie. Her eyes flashed with something and then she let go of me.
"Maddie why dont you dance with ratchet?" she asked her and Maddisons eyes brightened.
"Sure."
"I wouldnt mind," ratchet said but he looked over at me.
"Yes, go ahead" i said and Maddie jumped and walked over to ratchet. Alexis and i swayed back and forth as they danced. About 3 minutes later Alexis wanted to go inside so she and i did bit ratchet and Maddie stayed outside. I dont think they even realised we were gone.

Ratchets pov
I stared at Maddies eyes as we danced together. I held her close as Ironhide and Alexis walked inside. Maddie looked up at me and our eyes locked. She stared at me for a minute before reaching up and grabbing my face to kiss me. Her lips were soft and warm on mine. I held her face to mine for a second before we both pulled away. I love Maddie. Now this...this, was gonna be one heck of a story to tell. This is our story now.
