As Optimus pulled me closer, I couldn't help but want more. I needed to forget this empty anger in my spark, and I hoped Optimus could help. His dermas locked on mine and his large servos began to roam over my frame, feeling every inch of my body, brushing his digits against my sensitive transformation seams. I slid my servos up his broad chest-plate and wrapped my arms around his neck-cables, pulling him closer and arching my frame against his. Optimus carefully shifted me from sitting on the berth, to sit on his lap facing him, all the while keeping his dermas pressed against mine. He ran his servos down my legs as he began to kiss my neck-cables, and I gasped, biting my bottom derma. "It's okay," he whispered, giving my neck a gentle bite,"I'm here for you." I set my servos on either side of his face-plates and pulled his dermas to mine again, then lightly caressed his cheeks with my thumb digits. Optimus very softly bit my bottom derma, then slipped his glossa inside my intake, just barely touching mine. I let out a long, quiet moan and wrapped my arms around his neck-cables again. Optimus slid his servos back up my legs and set them on my back-plates as he eased me down onto the berth, pulling away only for a moment. Once he was certain I was settled comfortably, then did he kiss me again, this time softer, sweeter, before moving down my jaw to my neck-cables again. I let go of his neck-cables to stretch my arms above my helm with a sigh, turning my helm a bit to the side to give the Prime better access to my neck. My hair was sprawled out over the pillow and was in a tangled mess, but I didn't care. It could be dealt with later. Optimus brought himself lower over me, until our panels were barely touching. "Do you want this yet?" Optimus asked, his breath tickling my neck-cables. I held back my cry of 'yes', and thought it over in my helm first, then shook my helm 'no'. "Alright, I can wait," Optimus smiled, kissing under my jaw, but lifted himself a little away from me so our panels wouldn't brush together anymore. Night fell and Optimus remained by me in the berth, lying next to me with one arm wrapped around my waist. Midnight had been let in earlier, and now she lay curled in the little hollow made by my legs and stomach as I lay with my back pressed against Optimus' chassis. Optimus' servo gently massaged my stomach and he rested his chin above my helm. "Chardirakii?" he asked. "Mm?" I hummed in question. "I know I said I can wait, and I really can, but do you know when you will be ready to start a true family?" Optimus asked. I closed my optics and sighed,"Truth be told, Optimus...I don't really know. Life's been hectic lately, with the Decepticons, keeping the humans safe, and now Hexia." I sighed again and opened my optics. "What happened between you and Hexia?" Optimus asked. 'I guess it couldn't hurt to tell him,' I thought, then sighed for the third time,"We got into a huge argument. Hexia was upset because she thought I ran from cowardice and left you to be injured. I told her that you had ordered me to run, and that I'd come back, but she didn't listen. Now she hates me, and she said..." I stopped and bit back a sob. "Said what?" Optimus pressed. "Sh-she said that if you ever chose me someday, she would personally rip my spark out and take you for herself, because I'll never be good enough for you," I finished, then squeezed my optics tightly shut. Optimus' servo continued to make small circles on my stomach,"You already are good enough for me, Chardirakii. Perhaps better than I deserve, but I still love you, and no matter what Hexia or anyone else says, I can think of no other femme I'd much rather be with than you." I smiled slightly and relaxed a bit. "Oh, which reminds me," Optimus said, getting up and reaching into the berth-side table, taking out a flat, rectangular box. "I got this for you," he said, holding it out to me. I sat up, disturbing Midnight a little and took the box. "Another gift?" I asked. Optimus nodded,"I forgot all about it until now." I smiled, then opened the box, optics widening at the necklace within it. "You got...it's..." I set the box on my lap and covered my face-plates with my servos as my spark filled with pure joy once again. The necklace was a large amulet made of rose quartz with intricate designs of bent wire holding it in place. The chain was painted black, and it seemed to shimmer in the dim light of our room. "It's beautiful," I whispered, taking my servos away from my face-plates. Optimus sat beside me again and carefully took the amulet out of the box,"May I?" I nodded and pulled my hair away from the back of my neck-cables. Optimus clasped the amulet and lightly rested his digits on my shoulder-plate for a moment. "You look beautiful," he smiled. I blushed and smiled too. The amulet hung directly over my spark, and though the rose quartz was just a little too light for my magenta highlights on my paint-job, I still loved it. Optimus kissed my cheek,"I hope this makes up for the scrap that happened today." I leaned against him and hugged my Sparkmate lovingly,"Thank you so much, Optimus. Merry Christmas." Optimus kissed the top of my helm,"Merry Christmas, my love."
