because Red needs some happy

[electrowhipit]

[ This is where we are. Don't ask how, or why. Just know that it is a ballroom of sorts with a wonderful view. There is some music playing in the background despite the lack of band.

And there is a sharply-dressed Autobot looking out the window. He must be waiting for his date. ]

[When isn't he sharply-dressed? Never. Even so... he may have spiffed things up a little more. Just for you.

He sidles up behind you, and peers over your shoulder.]

I like your outfit.

[electrowhipit]

[ He turns, giving you a once-over, and breaking into a grin. ] I like yours too.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

I had high hopes you would, darling.

[He backs up a step.] Only the finest, where you're concerned.

[electrowhipit]

[ You get another once-over, then he holds out a hand ] Dance with me?

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Only if you want to be literally swept off your feet...

[But he takes your hand, and pulls you in close.]

[electrowhipit]

[ Sliiiides his free arm around your waist ] You can literally sweep me off of my feet later.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[And he will put his free hand on your shoulder.]

Oh really? You mean you don't want that sort of dance?

[electrowhipit]

[ He begins guiding you along to the music, leaning in to whisper ] Later.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[And he'll follow, grinning like an idiot, and leaning his head against yours when you do that.]

As you wish, my fenderfoot.

[electrowhipit]

[ He'll just... dance for a bit. Content to be this close, just listening to the music. ]

... I don't know where I'd be without you, Sideswipe.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[He follows your lead, quite happy to do so.]

... Constantly bombarded by Ratchet, testing your abilities?

[He's teasing.]

[electrowhipit]

That's not what I meant, and you know it.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[He tilts his head back up, to plant a kiss on your forehead.]

I know. I was teasing you.

[electrowhipit]

[ His expression quickly breaks into a smile, and he leans forward to plant a quick kiss on your lips ]

I love you.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[He returns the kiss, smiling, with a little purr of contentment.]

... I adore you. Absolutely. You... have no idea how much.

[electrowhipit]

[ He leans against you. Not so much dancing now as vaguely shuffling in place. ]

Thank you.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[He slides his arm around your waist now, before starting to tug you into another little dance.]

Hm? For what? Falling for you?

[electrowhipit]

[ He'll follow you this time ]

For everything. I... Ah. I always sort of thought I would be alone for the rest of my life.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[Good, because he will put those legs, and that agility, to good use.]

... well. That makes two of us, then. Maybe we should be thanking one another, instead.

[electrowhipit]

[ Just don't get too fancy and lose him ]

It still doesn't seem like it's real sometimes, you know?

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[He won't. He'll slow down for you. Just for you.]

I wouldn't think a fantasy could... perform as well as I do.

But. Yes. I... understand the sentiment.

[electrowhipit]

Sideswipe... I'm trying to be serious here.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

I know. That's why I'm teasing you, darling.

[electrowhipit]

Let me be serious for just a minute. Please?

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... Sure. If you really want to.
