Authors Notes: For the tf_rare_pairing June Challenge prompt - Promises. Yeah, this pairing has been sitting waiting for me to write it properly for ages. I’ve started one story with them, but this one just made itself known and wanted to be written.
Feedback makes friends. Flames dealt with by the masters of paranoia and fire, Red Alert and Inferno.
“I’ll always find you. I won’t let you go.”
“Really?”
“I promise.”
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It seemed like such a long time ago that Sunstreaker promised him that he would never be alone. That he would always find him. Yet here Jolt was, on Earth, and no sign of Sunstreaker.
When he’d landed, he’d half-expected to see Sunstreaker there to greet him, chiding him for getting lost and being late. As his systems realigned themselves from entry, he made out the recognisable figure in the darkness and made for it. As he got closer however, he realised his mistake and collapsed into Sideswipe’s arms, finally acknowledging what his spark had been trying to tell him all this time.
Sunstreaker wasn’t there. Sunstreaker would never be there. He’d finally made a promise he couldn’t keep.
