Transformers oneshots

Sideswipe/Sunstreaker x human!female!reader part 7 (bayverse)

-----------------------------------

Recap:

Jazz got ready to leave, "I'll be betting on ya" and with that final parting call he left.

'Man...I've got a lot of people betting on me...I'd better win this...what a sobering thought.'

'Don't worry you'll win.'

'Starblaze what did I say about going in my private thoughts.'

.

.

.

'That was private? You were practically shouting.'

'Oh shush you!'

-------------------------------------------Recap end-----------------------------------------------

Munching on a granola bar I sat at a table in the cafeteria with Lennox and the rest of our unit. We had spent a good solid half hour catching up before I got the message from Starblaze that we would be battling out front at sunset. 'Fragging melodramatic bots.' I was gathering strength and going over strategies for my upcoming match with Sideswipe and Sunstreaker.

I could vaguely hear the others chatting when one quiet remark caught my attention.

"Those two have no chance...(y/n)'ll beat them easy, she'll have air superiority. I'd almost call it cheating cuz none of us would have a chance."

I snapped up, "Who said that?"

Lennox and Epps were the first to point to the now sheepish soldier on the next table over. Anger and absolute indignation flared within me; then I made a very stupid decision.

"I'm a soldier just like you, and if you can't recognise it I'll prove it...when I face the twins I won't use anything that you all don't have." I then sat down, red-faced and frowning.

Waves of worry flashed over my Gaian bond, 'It's too dangerous (y/n)!'

'I can handle it Starblaze'

My table erupted in uproar.

"You can't (y/n)!"

"You'll get pummelled girl!"

"Don't listen to him!"

"You must be ill to even think such a thing!...here let me check your temperature."

Both my cousin and unit started worrying over me like mother hens.

I batted away an outstretched hand and stood up, quickly fleeing the room. The lone footsteps echoing after me alerting me to my cousin's pursuit.

I ignored them and kept marching off till a hand on my shoulder stopped me. I turned to face an agitated Lennox. Avoiding eye contact I focused on a tuft of his hair just above his forehead the warmth of his hand on my shoulder was both comforting and made me even more nervous.

"(Y/n)"

I met his eyes.

"Please tell me you're not really going to fight them without using your...your powers." He squeezed my shoulder slightly in both comfort and question.

"I'm sorry Lennox...even if I did regret saying that...I guess I've already made my decision."

Apprehension filled his eyes but he released my shoulder.

"Very well then, try to win but...don't die on me."

I nodded and we parted ways. 'I have to really plan now.'
