Hidden Spark on Earth II (TFP)

Chapter 18

Sex Scene in this Chapter

The weekend came around again and during the week it became clear that her morning sickness was getting work. The anti-nausea injection was the only thing helping her from vomiting regularly. Ratchet ended up giving her a stronger dose of it when Saphira woke in the middle of the night and vomited into a bucket. Optimus had kept one close now in his berth room so that Saphira would not feel guilty for being sick. She was grateful that he thought about her that way.

Saphira also continued to eat fish everyday, it was something she had became used to and she was often seen eating tin tuna, salmon and sardines. With the sardines, she would dip them in cream cheese, almond butter and peanut butter, which made the children squirm at the very thought of that. Saphira found it amusing, and she wasn't about to stop eating the fish either.

She did keep her promise to eat other kinds of food. She enjoyed making rice dishes that had fish in the recipe. She did eat chicken and beef as well, and she has turned her nose up at pork now. She found she could not stand the smell of pork, and refuses to eat it. It was discovered that she didn't like pork anymore when June cooked up a pork roast. This was another thing she won't eat anymore, including the processed meat.

Saphira was also finally beginning to plan for her birthday. She mostly kept it secret, though she was speaking with Knockout and allowing him to be in on the planning. He was thrilled about it and swore on his spark not to spill the beans to everyone...or spill the oil, as he calls it. Saphira was amused when he first said that and she has been having a lot of fun planning it. She did let Fowler know that she would have cupcakes of different flavors rather than an actual cake. The man understood, and he placed an order, while keeping it a secret from everyone.

Saphira, Optimus and Megatron were still finding time to spend with each other. She had begun having some one-on-one time with each mech and things have been going great. Particularly her relationship with Megatron. Their bond was growing stronger each day, and Megatron even presented Saphira gifts. Though the gifts usually included food, which delighted Saphira, he also gifted her other things. He had seen Saphira's loved of the ocean and he had built a model of the ocean with orcas. He used the materials he had on the ship to make it and Saphira loved it almost immediately. And he had also been collecting different shells from beaches, and she found out when she caught him collecting shells while she and him were together alone by a hidden beach.

He had actually found a pearl, and he gave it to Saphira to keep. She kept that pearl, and kept it within a small box to protect the pearl and not lose it. Optimus, thankfully, did not seem to be jealous that Megatron was making Saphira happy with these gifts. Optimus did enjoy spending simple times with Saphira, especially when she needed it. He took her into town a few times so she could shop, and he was amused when Saphira started purchasing large plush toys, saying they were for the sparklings.

It was mid morning on this Saturday morning, Saphira was sitting on Optimus's shoulder listening to Ratchet speaking to her and Optimus about synthetic energon now successfully fuelling the base. It wasn't quite ready for bot consumption, but this achievement was a big step forward. Knockout was thrilled about it too. They were not yet closer to growing energon crystals, but the synthetic energon will reduce the need to using energon for fuelling the base. And Megatron's ship after testing it on the ship. It was a good thing, and Saphira hoped that the synthetic energon could be soon safe to consume for the bots.

"You know what?" Miko said enthusiastically after listening to Ratchet speak about the achievement of the synthetic energon. "We should celebrate this achievement!"

"Ep, ep, ep!" Ratchet shakes his head, looking at the girl with a frown. "I would prefer it if we waited until we perfected the synthetic energon for our consumption."
