Domestication in love

(Human AU.)

he'd only agreed because his husband had asked him. their time off base was supposed to be alone time. no one one base knew they were married, except the higher ups. they never usually brought other soldiers back to the house, but here they were, with a rookie named Sam Witwicky in the back seat of their 2007 GMC Topkick, on their way to the Lennox farm.

"wow, you guys live really far out." Sam says.

"yeah, I grew up on this farm." Will smiles.

"how did you and Ironhide meet?" Sam asks curiously. Ironhide, a nickname that had stuck when he'd gotten shot several years ago in training by a stray bullet. he'd never even noticed.

"oh we go way back. we met in highschool." Will smiles.

"we're not that old Will." Ironhide grumbles. "we're only in our thirties." he adds.

"I know." Will chuckles. Will was playing with the hem of his shirt, used to being able to just hold his husbands hand, but not wanting to give away their secret.

"you should warn him." Ironhide says. Will looks over. "Prowl and Lucky." Ironhide adds. Will perks up. Sam, of course, had heard the names. Will loved to gush about his dogs, though no one was sure what kind of dogs they were, but the way Will talked about them, they were assumed to be purse dogs.

"Prowl and Lucky won't hurt you, but they are rescues. they might jump on you though, you're not scared of dogs are you?" Will ask.

"nah, I've got 2 of my own." Sam smiles.

"good." Will nods.

"who takes care of them when you guys are on base?" Sam ask.

"we've got a dog watcher." Ironhide says. Sam nods a little.

"you sure you guys are cool with this? I could've stayed at the base, my usual ride didn't get off this weekend." Sam frowns. Ironhide and Will share a look.

"well, just one thing kid." Ironhide said. Sam looks confused.

"yeah?" he asks.

"whatever happens off base, stays off base got it? whatever happens in our house, does not leave our house." Will says.

"well thats... scary. are you guys murderers or something?" Sam asks nervously. Will snorts.

"no, just promise you won't say anything to anyone about anything you see, got it?" Will ask

"I promise." Sam says. Will nods once and turns back to the front. Ironhide reaches over gently, taking Wills hand hesitantly, hiding them behind the console so Sam couldn't see it. Will smiles a little, looking out the window as they finally pull up to the house. immediately two of the biggest dogs Sam had ever seen came running out of the house. a huge tan and black dog and beautiful huge white dog. "what the fuck are those?" Sam ask shocked. Will gives him an odd look.

"Prowl and Lucky." Will said.

"they're huge! fucking horses! the way you talk about them I thought they were like... little! like tiny dogs!" Sam said, shocked. Will chuckles a little, swinging open the passenger door.

"they're not horses. Lucky is the white one, he's a Great Pyrenees, Prowl is the tan one, he's an Anatolian Shepherd. they're just big dogs." Will chuckles.

"get him settled, I'll put the truck up." Ironhide murmurs. Will nods and jumps out of the truck.

"hey guys!" Will grins, letting the dogs jump all over him. he laughs and pushes them away. "down boys! down!" Will laughs. immediately the two dogs sit. "okay now be good, go a head and get out Sam, slowly." Will says. Sam grabs his bag and slowly gets out of the truck. Prowl growls immediately. "Prowler, stop that." Will warns. the dog whines, watching the man.
