Focus
Wrote a drabble for my beloved Dragin, who originally gave me the prompt of "Fireflight / Flareup / flying lessons", but I couldn't manage Flareup as I had no pre-existing head-canon. So she let me switch to this, instead. :3

“You’re sure you want to…?”
“Yes.”
“But if something happens, we’ll…”
“It won’t.”
“How can you be sure?”
“Because I trust you.”
That had been the conversation leading up to Silverbolt now flying several hundred feet above the ground in root-mode, with a very eager Moonracer clinging to his back. Well, less clinging and more riding. She was straddling his midsection just above his hips, misleadingly delicate-looking hands curled over his shoulders as she leaned first to one side, then to the other, in her effort to see everything.
“Can we go faster, ‘Bolt?”
“I… I don’t want to drop you.”
“Come on, silly - you won’t drop me. Just a little faster?”
“Well… alright.”
He had to admit, even as he gained speed and rose a bit higher… It wasn’t quite so scary up here, as long as she was with him. As long as he could focus on her.
