I proudly stood in front of my farm house. Repaired and repainted. The barn was aqua on the outside, which in my opinion, looked prettier than red. It had to be the biggest barn I have ever seen. The barn had to have been at least 4,725 cubic feet all together. Being picky and all, I had previously measured it just to find out the volume.

The barn was roughly around twenty-five feet tall. And while I was cleaning it out, I had found pigeons, bats, house wrens, finches, a couple snakes, opossums, squirrels, etc. It drove me crazy and I thought I'd rip out my hair, but luckily half my hair is extensions.

Lush grass surrounded the barn, at the front was a small lot of asphalt, and in the corner was my old aqua Cherokee. A couple trees on the left side of the barn, which had a lower component that was about ten feet high, had perfectly grown over the small part. Vast fields were spread about the barn. A single dirt road led out to the city, which was just barely visible over the horizon of trees.

I walked up to the barn doors and pulled them open, pushing them aside and I walked inside and looked above the barn doors to find my set of katanas. Memories had come flooding back from when Drift began teaching me how to actually use them. I then stared at my wrist, where my Autobot tattoo lies. Tears welled up, but didn't dare to fall.

It was lonely here.

Tears streamed down my face as I watched Drift's Bugatti race off, kicking up dust as he went. My fist was held to my mouth to hide my trembling and slightly agape mouth. My breathing was hitching here and there as more sobs racked my body and more tears stained my cheeks. The sun was rising, I could see it glimmering off his window.

My face was as red as my hair from crying for so long. I remember last night...

"Jessica..." Drift pleaded as I turned my back to him to hide my face. I wiped away beginning tears. We were sitting on the hood of his Bugatti. We had argued for a few minutes that he can't go before I realized I had lost the argument and began crying. I don't think he's noticed yet. "Jessica, the Autobots need me...

"If I don't go, what use am I then? Please understand that-..." He paused, looking at my shaking body. I noticed as soon as he noticed that I was sobbing. He scooted closer and wrapped his arms around me, I felt his torso against my back. He whispered, "Hey...It's okay..."

My sobs had broken off my sentence, but otherwise, it came out, "No, it's not. I don't know what I'll do without you here...Drift...I-"

"Shh..." He took my hands in his and rubbed his thumb over the top of one of my hands, "Everything will be alright, Jessica. I'll be okay, and so will you."

"Drift, I love you and...and you just..." I paused, trying to think over what I'm saying, "You have to return...I love you." I repeated, he got the message that I meant it.

"For you."

"For us."

I had slept on Drift's holoform's lap. Well, more like I cried until I fell asleep. He didn't even care if I got him a little wet with the tears. He just stroke my hair, beginning with cooes and hushes, but soon after, stayed silent.

"...For us..." He whispered.

We both knew the danger of him becoming harmed or even killed. I wasn't ready for him to leave yet. But I knew his leader needed him. Drift had told me countless times already, that he was protecting Earth because of me. At first, he didn't like humans for what they've done. Since he met me, I have never seen those emotions. They never appeared.

I look back at the rickety barn we refuged at. It was a plain wooden color. I sighed, fixing it would occupy me.

I jumped pretty high off the ground as a car revved its engine just outside my barn. No one would come out here. Not even for pit stops, and yet, someone was here.

Hesitantly, I looked out one of the barn's holes, the light sort of blinding me. I jumped back again with a mix of emotions. Shock, happiness, anger, etc., but most of all, compassion. Or anger. I could be angry.

Rushing out, ignoring the tears that raged my vision, "You idiot!" I laughed as I jumped onto the person who had arrived. He held my thighs as my legs wrapped around his waist and my arms around his neck, I rested my head on his shoulder and cried. Cried tears of joy.

His Bugatti was there. Right in front of me. It crept a little closer compassionately. It was so close I could touch it. My hand lifted off his neck and reached out to the Bugatti. Odd as it was, it leaned into my touch. My fingers skimmed it. "You're an idiot..." I muttered.

Minutes after blinking or wiping away tears, I unwrapped myself and looked into his eyes. Not even a second later, I hugged him with all my might. And I felt him hug back.

He chuckled, "Missed you too, Jess." I laughed as a reply.

"You have no idea, Drift."
