Dark shadow- Sideswipe bayverse story-

Chapter 9. Books

"Sweetspark."

Sunstreaker strode into my room. 'I got you something.' I sat up straight and stared into his direction. He reached out for me and I took it from him. I tried to focus on the book he had just given me. "It's a thriller... I am sure you'll love it," he said. A smile crept up on my face. "Ahw, thank you, Sunstreaker..." I got up and hugged him. He pushed me aside after a second and smoothed his shirt down. "Okay, don't get attached to me like this now, human. It's just a book," he stated arrogantly. "It's enough to put a smile on my face, Sunny," I mumbled. "You stared too with that dreadful nickname?" he muttered and flopped on the armchair. "It's cute..."

I am pretty sure he's rolling his eyes at me. "It's cute..." he repeated. "I am not cute and you should know that by now, human," he scowled and aimed both his guns at me. "Can you stay over tonight?" I asked. "What?" Confused, he straightened his back. "You sleep here tonight... wouldn't that be fun?" I asked. "Uhm, no... why would I want that?" he asked arrogantly and sat back again. "Because you adore me in your own way... and... you would make me really happy if you do. You can read me this story." I held up the book he took as a gift for me. "That I gave you that book didn't mean I wanted to stay here..." he trailed off. "Sunstreaker please..." I walked up to him and sat on his lap.

'It's going to be fun.'
He wrapped his muscular arms around me and sighed. 'You have a weakness for me,' I teased and nudged his stomach softly. Sunstreaker shook his head slightly, 'alright... I will stay for tonight' he mumbled. I hugged him tightly before I got up, 'thank you, Streaker. You make me happy with that,' I said. 'Don't get used to it, alright? I am not staying every single day,' he warned before he got up. I didn't expect him to stay for longer than one day either, but I am already happy he wanted to spend one night here. Sunstreaker returned later with a couple of things from himself for the night.

I had just taken a shower and was sitting on the edge of my bed. 'Right side is mine...' Sunstreaker announced and walked around the bed towards the other side. 'Okay... sure,' I giggled. It didn't really bother me he's on my right side, which means I can see him, perhaps the reason he did or because he just really wants to be on the right side. Either way, it doesn't matter. We settled and once again, I snuggled into him, wrapping my arm around him and closed my eyes as he started to read. He's good at reading, he makes it funny and thrilling. I have noticed before that he's really good at telling stories without making it boring.

We fell asleep around 1 AM and woke up at 10. Sunstreaker caressed my cheek gently. 'Sky... wake up,' His whisper sent shivers down my spine and a smile formed on my lips. 'Already?' I muttered. He hummed and got up, leaving the cold air to touch my body. I grabbed his wrist and pulled him back next to me. 'Five more minutes...' He sighed and ran his hand through my messy dark blonde hair. 'honestly... I think we need to get up. I have some duties to do and I don't want people to get mad at me for being late. I am never late,' Sunstreaker stated and freed himself from me. I assumed he collected some clothing and headed off towards the bathroom.

I got up as well. Because I had taken a shower last night, I dressed up and made myself ready. I am sure Sunny doesn't want to wait for me till I am done. When he was done showering, I quickly headed into the bathroom to finish my daily routine before following him towards the cafeteria.

'What are you eating?'
Sunstreaker swallowed his bite. 'Some toast, scrambled eggs and bacon,' he replied. I hummed and continued eating in silence. 'What's going on?' I asked at the sound of something breaking and yelling.'Oh, some soldiers are having a fight,' he mumbled.I turned my head to have a look, but there wasn't much I was able to see. I popped some food in my mouth again and sat back as I finished. "You'd like to go out again?" he asked. Actually no, but I felt like it's rude to tell him that because he's putting so much effort in our friendship. "You said you had duties, right?" I asked.
