Lost in bayverse book 1 [ rewriting ]

Chapter 7. Galloway

Sideswipe was like usual not early at all. So, I softly started dressing up and took the pain medication. Today, I wanted to go to Walmart and Sideswipe wanted to join. He would do everything to escape the base for a little while. I am his new entertain material. I sat on the edge of his bed, he looked so peaceful and cute. He laid on his stomach, hugging the pillow. "Sideswipe?" I ran my hand through his soft silky dark brown hair. He made some noises, I wasn't sure if it was an attempt to talk or just a snarl.

"Sideswipe?" I cooed again. This time he started stirring and turned on his back, his eyes still dull. "You are already dressed up..." he complained. I hummed and nodded, "yeah, it's ten O'clock already..." I said. "Seriously? Why so early?" he scowled. "How late do you usual get up?" I asked. "Sometimes 12 PM..." he replied. I snorted and got up, "but then you have only half a day."
He sat on the edge of his bed stretched himself. "Yes, but who doesn't want to sleep all day?" he muttered. "Everyone except you," I laughed teasingly. He gave me a look and got up, "I can be early... if I want too," he said, grabbing some clothes from his closet. "You don't do your laundry?" I asked as he searched for new underwear. "Sometimes..." he replied. A innocent smile crept up on his face, "but... now I have you..." he said. I gave him a 'really' look. "You are horrible..." I scowled. "Nah, I am just used that things are get done for me..." he replied. "You brother ruined you..." I mocked. "My brother is harsh... really harsh but he loves me..." he said with a grin.

I snorted and pushed him towards the bathroom. "Hurry up, Swipes!" I shouted over my shoulder. He childish repeated me. He was quick, ten minutes later Sideswipe was all ready to go. He fixed his hair in front of the mirror before we headed towards the main hanger. "So, where'd we go today?" He asked, clapping his hands together. "I thought you said you wanted to go to Wallmark..." he was about to answer me as someone stormed over to me. Galloway.

I gulped as I backed off. "You!" He snapped. Sideswipe frowned and chased us, coming between us. "Be nice, please. She's a nice femme..." he said. Galloway slapped his hand out of the way,— pushing him aside. "Hey! Don't do that!" Sideswipe snapped. "Shut up, Autobot!" Galloway snarled and turned back towards me.

"You are only causing trouble..."
"That's not true! She's not causing any trouble!"
"Shut up, Sideswipe! I didn't ask you a damn thing!"

I believed Sideswipe was going to explode. His anger was visible in his eyes. "No! But you've no right to be rude either!" Sideswipe sneered. Luckily for me, Ironhide came between us. "That's enough, Sideswipe."
He placed his hand on Sides's shoulder. The mech was still glaring at Galloway. "Stand down! Now!" Ironhide snarled. Slowly, Sideswipe did a step back and turned towards me. "Come on, sweetspark... let's go," he scowled.

Without saying anything else, I followed. "Afthole!" Sideswipe scowled. I sighed,— nodding. "Don't let him ruin your day... it's not worth it, Sideswipe." He rolled his eyes, "that human is working on my nerves, Sky..." he sighed. I laid my hand on his. The front liner glanced at me while I smiled. "Let it go..."

He gave a small nod,— kissing my cheek. "You're right..." he sighed. "Of course I am..." I purred teasingly and softly poked him. He laughed, already forgetting about what just happened. Although, when we got back Galloways voice remembered us of his eruption from previously.

"Skylar..."

I groaned softly and turned towards Galloway again,— mustering a smile on my face. "This is your last and only warning..." he snapped while jabbing his finger in my chest. "I don't want you to cause any trouble especially not with him or I'll kick your ass back to where you came from!" He sneered. "Don't you dare to touch her!" Sideswipe pushed Galloway away from me with so much force the man collapsed on the floor.

"And you don't talk to Skylar that way either! She's a femme and you should treat them with respect!" He snapped angrily. Sometimes he's such a gentleman. I bit my lip before glancing at Galloway who got up with a furious face expression. "Says you!" He snapped while pointing at me.

"Yeah, what's that supposed to mean!" Sideswipe sneered. "The biggest slut here at the base!" Galloway spat out. My eyes widened and I gasped in shock. Sideswipe's eyes turned red. Not even icy blue, just red. With a roar, he lunged for Galloway. "Sideswipe!" I shrieked. He was in a bliss and repeatedly hitting Galloway's face.

"Call me that again and even Ratchet isn't able to patch you up!" He shouted. Lennox pulled Sideswipe away from a bleeding Galloway and hit his jaw so hard it caused me to flinch in pain, but Sideswipe didn't whine or flinch, he just stood there like he felt nothing. He tightly grabbed Lennox's wrist and nearly broke it. "You don't hit me!" Je growled furiously while bending his wrist in the wrong way.

"Sideswipe stop!"
Lennox hissed at the pressure and I don't know how long his wrist is able to hold it. Sideswipe threw him on the floor. I made a mental note to not piss of Sideswipe ever. He had been angry when I got shot but this is a whole new level. He changed into a Sunstreaker and if Sideswipe is capable of doing this... then what is Sunstreaker capable of?

Sideswipe turned around and pushed me away from the scene. "Come on, Sweetspark! Let's go to our room!" He snarled. I said nothing, I had no idea what to say either. The tension between us was huge and made me uncomfortable and restless...
