Today was the day the Autobots were finally accepted into Earth's governments. After the battle in Mission City, Optimus and a few others have been having meeting after meeting trying to get everything in order. It was tiring to say the least.

Everyone was on edge, worrying about the fate of the fellow Cybertronians that we've come to love. All military actions had been suspended until everything got sorted which was both a good and a bad thing. It gave us soldiers a few months off to get settled and recoop after everything that happened. It also meant extra training to ensure that we didn't slip.

Some of us made daily visits to the temp. base just outside D.C. while efforts were made to prepare a permanent base in Diego Garcia. A few weeks before the last conference was set to be held, all NEST officials and autobots were to report to Diego Garcia to go over the layout and the like.

I was currently sitting on my bed, breathing in a sigh of relief at finally getting everything set up. It had been a week since we got here at D.G. and it was a rush of excitement getting everything organized. Most of my days were spent with my cousin getting equipment in order, meaning my room suffered.

There was a knock on my door and I groaned before getting up and padding over to it. I slid it open to see the one and only, William Lennox. "Hey cus." I greeted. He nodded a hello, "Hey, so Prime and Ironhide are supposed to be landing in about 4 hours. The guys and I were thinking of holding a party to celebrate the end of these conference wars." He chuckled.

I smiled brightly, "Hell to the yes!" I squealed. Suddenly the faces of the rest of my team popped into view. "Good cus, we kinda need your decorating expertise." Epps mentioned and I groaned. "I see my cousin hasn't failed in informing you guys about my party planning skills." I shot a glare at Will who held his hands up defensively.

I simply shook my head and followed the guys out to the main hangar where everyone was hanging streamers and balloons. Some of the 'bots were helping out, those that somehow figured out the secret, and I got to work on setting up the amps.

I heard quick paced footsteps and glanced behind me to see Will. "You excited to see your boyfriend again?" He teased. I stopped my work with the amps to glare at him, "Ironhide is not my boyfriend." "I never said Ironhide, you're the one who implied that. Which leads me to reason, you like him don't you?" I sighed and threw a pair of pliers at him. "Shut up." I growled.

"You hang out with Ratchet too much." He grumbled before turning and running off. "That's not a bad thing!" I shouted after him.

After a few hours of getting set up, everything was ready to throw the greatest party of all time. Everyone split to get in civilian clothes, something we didn't get to do often on base. I ran to my room and threw on a red crop top that had thick tank-top sleeves, (idk how to describe them other than that lol) and black leather pants with a pair of combat boots. I looked at my reflection and smiled. I hung my dog tags on my mirror before stepping out and hearing a commotion from the main hangar.

When I stepped out, I saw that music was already being blasted and all the bots were in holoform. There were people all over the floor dancing, including William who was doing some weird dance looking like an idiot. Next to him was a very familiar, and hot, autobot weapon specialist. His raven hair slightly tousled wearing the typical casual army uniform, black shirt tucked into belted green cargo pants.

That seemed to be the popular appearance among the autobots. There were a few that wore complete civilian clothes but either way, Ironhide was looking hot. His dog tags were dancing around in the air as he moved and I hadn't realized I was staring until a felt a slight nudge in my back.

I jumped with a yelp and turned to see Optimus standing before me, a sly smile on his lips. I narrowed my eyes at him, "What are you up to Mr. I stand along a wall in any social situation cus I'm awkward as hell?" I crossed my arms and he cocked an eyebrow before shaking his head, his blueish black hair swaying slightly with the motion. "First off, I'm not one for parties, second of all, you were clearly staring at a certain black haired weapon specialist. I figured you might need a little push." He flashed a cute smile and I groaned.

"Did Will put you up to this?" I asked as I glanced around to see my cousin now making his way towards us. "I assure you, I did this on accord of my own will." He replied. I groaned and was suddenly being pulled backwards. "Come on, let's dance!" The familiar voice of Will rang through my ears. I shot Optimus a desperate look to which he chuckled and made his way back over to Ratchet and a couple of the soldiers.

I was thrust into the middle of the dance floor, slamming straight into someone's chest. I squeaked and turned around, only to see Ironhide's holoform grinning at me. "It's been brought to my attention that you've been watching me." He teased. I felt my cheeks redden, "I was just lost in thought." I covered.

"Yeah, in thought about his body." Lennox quipped. I smacked him, "Shush!" Ironhide chuckled and grabbed my hands, leading me into a small dance.

By the end of the night, Ironhide and I were dancing circles around each other having the time of our lives. The music slowly died down and people started parting ways. Ironhide on the other hand, grabbed my hand and led my back to my room. "Uhhh..." I started to question what he was doing as we entered my room.

He looked around for a second, letting go of my hand. He perked up and walked over to where my phone was, unlocking it and playing a slow song. He approached me again and set his hands on my hips. I smiled and placed my hands on his shoulders. "I hope you realize, you are a very attractive femme." He stated with a small smile.

I blushed, "Why thank you, you're not too bad looking yourself. Both in bot and human form." I replied. He spun me before pulling me into his chest, "How would you like to go out sometime?" He asked, stopping in the middle of our little dance. I beamed at him, "I'd love to." He smiled brightly before leaning down and capturing my lips in a kiss.

"I was hoping you'd say that."
