"And if I push the right button, will you show me somethin'?"

"Come on soldier! Do it right or take 3 laps!" Ultra Magnus shouted at me. I groaned and lowered myself to the ground before slowly pushing myself back up.

"I hate push-ups." I grumbled. I made the mistake of telling the autobots that I wanted to join the military to help them but that I'd need to train before heading to boot camp. Ultra Magnus, being Ultra Magnus, gladly volunteered. I had stumbled across the bots when Megatron was forming Darkmount. A speeding sports car with double 38's on the side, which I quickly learned was Smokescreen, had almost ran me over in a hurry to get back to base.

From there, I had been inducted into the secret "Robot Fight Club" as it had been dubbed amongst us civilian humans. When Ultra Magnus arrived, we didn't necessarily start off on the best terms. I didn't take too well to the bots and of course, I didn't "respect" him as he so demanded. But over time, I had been drawn to him. When he thought he was alone, I'd catch glimpses of what he was like when he wasn't in the middle of war. He was soft-hearted, or sparked, and self-conscious. It was then I realized we weren't that different after all. I opened myself up to the bots and quickly grew attached.

I tried to spend more time with the lone commander, trying to make amends and help him feel welcome. Within a short period of time, things started to grow awkward between us. I would get nervous and jittery and he would give me short curt replies. I grew tired of the tension and finally confronted him on it and that's when comradery turned into love.

So here we were, a couple months into our relationship and Ultra Magnus was training me. I was beginning to have regrets.

Each morning at 5am he'd wake me up, have me quickly eat before rushing me into the day's workout, coaching me in his holoform. Most days we went at it all day, mental training and then weapons training before ending it with physical. It was tiring and stressful, but it seemed to be bringing us closer.

I did the last push up and stood up, panting. "Alright, take a lap!" He commanded.

"Yes sir." I responded weakly.

"What was that? I couldn't hear you!"

I growled, "Yes sir!" I shouted before jogging. I let out a loud groan, feeling extra tired today. Of course, this behavior was not to be tolerated and before I knew it, Ultra Magnus stood in front of me with his arms crossed and brows furrowed. "Shit.." I murmured.

He gripped my chin and made my eyes meet his bright cerulean eyes. "Is there an issue soldier?"

"N-no sir, just hurting is all."

His eyes narrowed before releasing me. "Go hit the shower." He commanded and I gave a salute before making my way to the shower. I quickly stripped my sweaty clothes from my body and hopped into the warm water. I was so focused on the relaxing warmth over my body that I didn't even hear my boyfriend walk into the bathroom. He pulled back the shower curtain and little which startled me to say the least.

Out of instinct I kneed him in the face and punched him before it registered who it was. "Oh scrap, sorry Mags."

He groaned, stumbling back a little, and I quickly stepped out to survey the damage. "I might be training you too well." He grumbled. I  smiled sheepishly and slowly eased his hands away from his face, noting his nose was broken.

"That's what you get for scaring me." I sighed.

He raised an eyebrow at me before I quickly set his nose in place and he let out a loud groan. "I called out to you multiple times before entering." He stated after calming himself.
