TFP~ Optimus Prime x Knockout

Optimus was out searching for an energon signal through the woods. The scanner kept fuzzing out and it drove the Prime crazy. "Nothing ever works." He said. The sound of a cracked stick alerted him. The Autobot turned back with his blaster pointed. A little doe stepped out from the bushes and looked at the mech. Optimus put his blaster away and tilted his helm. The doe snuck away into the trees again, allowing Prime to proceed. Optimus walked a couple miles before the scanner died on him. "Oh for Primus, slag!" Optimus threw the scanner down and looked around. He took a step and felt something cold. He lifted up his pede and saw, energon. The Prime ran his digit by it and looked at it.

There was the echo of a groan coming from in the trees. Optimus followed the trail of energon not even noticing the dead corpses lying around. Soon Prime looked over past a willow tree and saw a mech out by the pond. Optimus took caution as it could be a Decepticon. Once he got close enough, it was a Con, a red doctor. Optimus's battle mask slid back and his blade turned back into his servo. He set his servo on the willow and watched the red mech. He was talking but Prime couldn't hear. A squirrel knocked a nut down and it it Optimus making a -Clink!- sound. Optimus quickly went beside the tree as the mech looked over.

The sound of pedsteps getting closer made the Prime's frame shake. "W-who's there?" By the tone the Con was already frightened. Optimus looked out as the red mech sat down and huffed. It was Megatron's medic, Knockout. The Prime was kinda itching to know what Knockout was doing out here. Before Optimus could move he noticed the gashes around Knockout's abdomen. Was he the one who left the trail? Optimus took a deep breath walked out. "Knockout." His voice disturbed the nightly noises. The red mech turned back startled and stood up, in fighting stance. Optimus put his servo's up, "I'm not here to hurt you." Knockout smirked and coughed, laughing after he spit.

"Do you think I'm that stupid, Prime?" Optimus looked into Knockout's optics and saw the fear. The red mech stood his ground and flinched, threatening the Autobot. Prime quickly walked up to Knockout and put his servo's around him. Knockout held his servo's high, confused. Optimus knelt down and cupped the medic's cheek. (Like in the photo at the beginning) "What happened, why are you out here?" Knockout pushed the Prime's servo away from him. "I was out tracking energon. Turns out Megatron was trying to assassinate me, the vehicons attacked once I was unaware." Optimus set his servo behind Knockout and cupped the back of his helm. "You need medical help, I'll take you back to base."

Knockout squirmed away from the Prime. Optimus stood up and looked at the medic. "I-I can't go with you. Just leave me to die." Optimus walked up to Knockout and set his servo's on his shoulders. "Knockout we help bots in need. It's what differs us from the Decepticons." Optimus's voice and his wise words were appealing to Knockout. The red mech turned back and tucked his helm into Optimus's chassis. (Optimus is about 22ft tall; Knockout is about 21ft tall) Optimus rubbed the medic's helm and frown. He sat up and contacted Ratchet to open the bridge.

.~Couple Weeks Later~.

Optimus walked by the medical bay and heard glass. He backed up three steps and peeked in. Knockout was on top of the cabinet as Ratchet threw tools at him. "Get down!" Ratchet huffed. Knockout hissed and extended his sharp digits. Optimus opened the door and cleared his throat. "What in Primus!?" Ratchet looked back and set the tool down. Knockout climbed off of the cabinet. "Optimus." The Autobot medic was frustrated. Knockout ran past Ratchet and clung onto Optimus's arm. "N-nevermind, just clean up." Optimus and Knockout walked out into the base to meet everyone else. The Prime watched Smokescreen and Bumblebee talk and joke with Knockout. Ultra Magnus set his servo on Optimus's shoulder.

"I think he's really happy here." Optimus looked up at Magnus and sighed. "You think they'll come looking for him tho?" Magnus shrugged and ducked as the lob ball came flying towards him. He picked it up and charged at Bulkhead and Wheeljack. Arcee chuckled and Ratchet walked out of the medical bay. Optimus sat down and smiled as he saw Knockout laugh. There was something about him that made everything feel different in the Prime. Smokescreen snapped his digits in front of Optimus's optics.

"Bumblebee wanted to know if you'd like to go on a drive with us." Optimus looked at his scout who had a pleading face. Even though the Prime didn't want to go, he couldn't say 'no' to the scout. He walked with the three sports cars and they all transformed, heading out of base. The sun was low so they wouldn't have to worry about getting overheated. Optimus stopped as his scout slowed. They transformed away from the road and walked through the canyon. Knockout's shoulder brushed against Optimus's arm. The two stopped and Bumblebee and smokescreen were so busy talking they didn't stop.

"I need to tell you something." Both mech said. They blushed and looked to opposite ways. "You go." Optimus said. "N-no you're the boss." Knockout replied. Optimus sighed and set his servo's on the rock behind Knockout. "Ever since I found you in the moon light you've stood out to me. I see good in your spark and I don't know how to say this but, When I look at you I feel like I'm on Cybertron." Knockout blushed and he sunk a little. "Optimus I've had a slight crush on you too.." Optimus was surprised the Decepticon felt the same way. Optimus slowly leaned into the red mech and the red mech leaned forward. Their lips met for a split second before headlights caught them off guard.

Smokescreen transformed and crossed his arms over his chassis. "Got you!" Knockout pushed Optimus away and smiled nervously. "Yea good job officer.." The three sports cars raced back to base as Optimus took it nice and smooth. he was still in heaven from the kiss. He's never kissed before but he knows he'd do it more often now.
