Chapter Text
You did your best to stay still as Boulder delicately moved his brush along the canvas. He had asked you to pose for him weeks ago and now that you finally had some downtime you were more than happy to oblige.
You hadn’t anticipated how tiring it would be though, straining to hold the same pose for hours. You were aching all over but didn’t want to ruin this for Boulder so you bit back any complaints you might have had. When he finally gave you the ok to move you let your shoulders drop, sighing in relief.
You walked towards him, stopping just short of the easel and shyly rocking back and forth on your heels. “Can I see?”
“Of course.” He stepped back, delicately taking your hand in his servo as he guided you forward.
You looked at the painting, studying it thoroughly before turning to beam up at him. “It’s beautiful Boulder.”
He smiled back down at you. “You’re beautiful.”
Your smile became flustered as you buried your face in your free hand, willing yourself to calm down before you accidentally burst into flames and Heatwave had to hose you down. Again.
Once you had a hold of yourself you finally let your hand fall back to your side and turned to face Boulder.
“Do you think you could kneel down for me?”
“Of course.” He knelt down smoothly, watching patiently as you moved closer. He seemed to catch on to what your intentions were, bending his head down. This wasn’t your first time kissing him but it was your first time initiating one and you bashfully placed your hands against his chassis to balance yourself as you stood on the tips of your toes. Even with him down on one knee and you stretched out like this it was still a bit of a struggle for you to reach him.
It was worth it though when you felt the gentle press of his derma against your lips, one servo coming up to curl carefully around your back in a tender display of affection.
