I'll let you have this one, but only in dancing, Optimus.
( Every other facet of his personality is worth having some pride in, as far as Shockwave is concerned. The song changes on the radio to something slower and more intimate and Shockwave takes the chance to pull Optimus closer to him.
They can have this now. Time together. It wasn't a matter of feeling as if he'd been robbed of it - that would imply that he'd felt anything while walking away from an Orion who was begging him to remember who he was. Of feeling something like wanting and remorse for four million years whenever his thoughts strayed to the now-Prime.
Shockwave remembers saving him once - his survival had, at the time, been logical. But they'd been like strangers, they were strangers.
