The One I'm Waiting For [Elina]

[Interceptor]

(just lettin ya know I'm basing some of this post out of what's happened in the cbox since the time difference between the cbox rp and the boards is rather big at times xD)

Interceptor was parked in his motorbike form at the lookout, visible to any who may cross it or approach the pristine scene. It was around five o'clock pm, the sun starting to set, bringing out all sorts of rosy, vermilion colors across the horizon. Many of the colors were brought out further due to the pollution that loomed over Tranquility, but it was still a pretty sight.

The young spy bot hoped to meet Elina out here. He sent her a quick text as a reminder, hoping she wasn't distracted with her sister or some other bot or business at this time. He'd been goofing off with the twins a lot in his free time, and he slowly began to realize he wanted to get closer to one of them, and that happened to be Elina. And as a bonus, it seemed like Adam didn't mind Elina. He hadn't really hinted to Elina or anyone else that he openly liked her yet, but it had somewhat been implied by her when he had successfully managed to get her out of hiding in Charter's office to go get her processor inspected by Ratchet. He'd offered to take her on a date and to his surprise she didn't freak out too much, and agreed to it.

It'd been a couple days since then, they'd gradually become closer, but Interceptor wanted to get a chance to talk to her in peace, alone. He sighed mentally, being rather nervous. Interceptor had no interest in any other femme, and he didn't feel the same way about Ani as KITT did with Corina. Ani felt more like family to Interceptor. Elina seemed to be something different.

And so Interceptor hoped to solidify the foundation he and Elina already started building in their fairly close friendship. He knew a lot of the bots well, being such a friendly bot, but Elina was one of the few he really liked. He just felt like he wanted to remind her of this, that him offering her the date back then hadn't just been because he knew she was scared and that she trusted him. He had done it not only because of that, but because he hoped they could be something more too...

Elina was in her yellow mustang form, nearing Interceptor where he asked to meet her through text. She always checked her messages as soon as possible jus in case someone needed help, and honestly yes about a half hour ago she had been rather buy, fighting with Vicky. It was started by nonsense though and it wasn't a serious fight, vicky had been training and she was actually able to sneak up on for once and decided to glomp her out of nowhere. This seemed to have made Vicky pretty much and made her go off about meditating and energy or whatever it was, she didn't really understand it but hey, that was her sister's thing. It turned into a play fight and the two had tried to best one another to see who'd win thismatch. Elina however got the buzz that she had a new text and while checking it/being distracted, she was ambushed by Vicky though she was able to hold her off and book it. She REALLY liked Interceptor, she couldn't explain it exactly through words though everything was better when Interceptor was around. And sad to say she had been down for a while, she had only just learned the truth to her parents' deaths by Vicky. She wondered how it was possible something like that could happen, then remembered Cybertron was a rough place and if you were considered a traitor or enemy to your side this was bound to happen.

With her mind a bit spacey, she had thankfully been subconciously taking turns and hadn't wrecked yet. Just like when she'd try and read but space off in the middle of it and she'd find her optics were scanning the bototm of the page, she didn't remember any of it but when she went through it again it felt like she already had and recognized it right away. Though, she didn't care much for reading stories and such, she'd rather go out and live it though make the story better. All the bots were living one right now absed on war with the Decepticons and keeping the humans out of harm's way.

finally, she had arrived to her destination. Ah, the look out area. She couldn't remember but this might have been where she and Vicky were itnroduced to Sam Witwicky by Optimus Prime. Or was it somewhere else?.. Eh.. Focus! Driving up next to the motorcycle easily recognizable to her to be Interceptor, she gave him space of course just in case before stopping and parked finally. "Got your text."

"Yay! How are you this fine evening?"Interceptor said slowly, being a bit nervous. He didn't want to start out making it sound like he didn't want to be with her and didn't enjoy her company, he was just trying to take it slow and make sure he said things how he really wanted it said so he wouldn't risk screwing up. He was young and energetic, thus it was likely to happen."I hope you don't mind talkin a bit-I think um, after I asked you out to get you in the med bay we needed some time to chat..." Interceptor wasn't sure how else he could have said that, so his form fell silent, just sitting there patiently, hoping he wouldn't lose his nerve. Luckily, he was pretty good at hiding these. His engine was off completely, so with out its light rumbling, he added to the pause in silence rather easily.

Asked me out just to get me into the Med Bay, yeah you're not thinkin' clearly even I catch that stuff. But, he probably didn't mean it that way, I hope not.. "I'm good, you?" She decided to say instead and showed no signs of negativity, knowing how to blow that stuff off very well unlike vicky who seemed to give negative vibes like they were her life force. Yes, she definetly gave off the positive kind of vibes, like someone who always looks at the glass as half full. "I don't mind a chat, what's up?" She wasn't sure what else to say rather than that, it all just seemed kinda akward, but she sure as hell did NOT regret it!

Interceptor shifted into his car form and then expanded out into his fairly big bot form, already sitting cross legged.Being like his older brother, Interceptor liked to get straight to the point, he already told her why he wanted to meet her here, after all, and thus he may as well get right to the point to prevent unneeded anxiety or tension. His bright aquamarine optics glowing as bright as his alternate form's headlights, he turned towards her and smiled briefly before replying. He was nervous, yes, but luckily he was able to keep a calm mindset and not stumble-when he really took things seriously, it was never that much of a challenge for him.

"I'm doin pretty good, thanks! I uh, just wanted to tell you that I meant more than what I offered back then. Yes I'd offered a simple date but I was thinking more on the long term aspect and not a short term deal just to get you to cooperate. I just wanted to get the chance to talk to you about this sometime after, but one thing or another kept me from doing so. I was hoping we could consider ourselves a pair. I like you Elina, I like you a lot, and I dunno about you, but I think we could be more than just friends...I've been busy spending time with Adam and taking care of him, and believe it or not, am a bit shy when it comes to this stuff. Thus I was very slow to revealing my feelings in total. And every day I realize how much I want to..."he explained hands in his lap. Interceptor twiddled his fingers a bit, trying to keep his optics on her alternate form, but it was kind of hard because even though he sounded calm, he was pretty dang nervous.

In noticing this, she assumed it was safe to do the same as well. The front part of her car form was already splitting into eight and it shifted back, transforming rather quickly into the happy yellow bot she usually was, sitting on her aft wither arms back to support herself as one leg shifted forward slightly just further than the other that kept firm while the rest of her helmet finally shifted into place around the sides of her face. The last part of her helmet on top finally settled in as well as she turned her crystal blue optics upon Interceptor, staring into his with a dish of some ocean blue visible down deep in the coloring of her's. She wasn't exactly completely nervous about this, maybe a bit uneasy but she seemed light hearted about it. Over all friendly if one could not understand that.

Consider them a pair? Yeah... She could definitely do that. She smiled lightly, already knowing her answer well. She always seemed happier when Interceptor was around, forgot about all her troubles easily and even fought with her sister less. Though that wasn't all that could sum it up.. It was.. She couldn't explain it, she didn't know how just yet as the nervous feeling took over a bit more, though not much more and kicked that to the side mentally with ease. "Yeah Interceptor, I think we can consider ourselves a pair." She noticed him twiddling his fingers and grew nervous about what she was about to do, hoping he wouldn't mind, reaching over and planting a 'peck' on his cheek before returning back to the spot she sat next to him. "And I think you're really sweet." She chuckled in response to everything he had said. It wasn't much she could say, but it was not babbling on about confusion either.

[Interceptor]

Time seemed to freeze for a bit as she transformed and pecked him on the cheek. He was pretty sure his holo-form would have shown a bit of red if it had been activated. Gently, he reached out for with an arm to wrap around her, but he didn't want to do much more than that. Yes, he was thrilled she was on the same page as he was, but he didn't want to go overboard with his emotions or affection and scare Elina. Interceptor had a lot of control and thus while having a much easier time keeping his mind at ease now, he wouldn't be smothering her with kisses, a death hug and such. He didn't want to send her away after finally being able to explain what he'd just explained.

Looking in her darker but equally brilliant optics, he just had to return the peck, and thus he did so with out any hesitation.

"I'm glad you think so, I always thought you were too. And full of fun, which is a mega bonus."he replied with a chuckle. Interceptor didn't like to think they were complete opposites (despite the saying opposites attract), and at times, both of them could be quite serious for their own reasons. Rather, they seemed to compliment each other like the pieces of a puzzle. "Well uh, anything you'd like to do on this lovely evening? We could go squirrel hunting or something like I offered back then"he inquired with a light smirk having no plans in advance. He wasn't poking fun at her or anything-it was actually something he himself would love to just kill time doing, especially with one or two other bots.

Interceptor often did things spontaneously, unless he knew some important task required a lot of training. He considered this whole outing to be spontaneous, so he figured little planning was involved for this one.

[||Elina/\#}}]

That was definitely agreeable, for if Elin had her holo-form out they'd also be read in the face as Interceptor put an arm around her. She tried to hide the kind of smile some got when they blushed, trying to tone it down so not to scare Interceptor off, she really wouldn't want that she'd probaby never trust another bot again after that. Not anyone enw anyways, though she'd be a lot less peppy. With the peck returned, surprisingly she calmed rather than became horrifically nervous. She knew someone who got that way just by being hugged and whom would go hide afterwards. Then again no one but her family would ever be able to guess who it was.

"Glad ya think so." She chuckled lightly. She enjoyed that they had a lot in common and the two weren't afraid to be themselves around each other or around anyone else really. Not even around Optimus did she act differently, be someone you're not and everyone will expect you to always be that way. "Squirrel hunting? Squirrels are extremely hard to catch especially with our size you know that right?" Though it looke dlike she found this amusing, mentally laughing in a happy way of them both going out to find squirrels. Not in a bad way, she thought it would be fun.
