Family

Chapter 7

"come again?" Bumblebee ask.

"you aren't healing Prowls spark. I had my suspicions. there's a simple way to tell when a bot is with sparkling. their spark changes from a bright white, to a dull pink. you aren't fixing Prowls spark, the sparkling is." Ratchet replied. Bumblebee shrugged.

"oh yeah, I knew about that. so does Prowl. we just didn't want to say anything." Bumblebee said.

"why not? how long have you known?" Ratchet hissed.

"about three weeks." Bumblebee shrugged. "we didn't say anything cause the way everyone flipped when we told them we bonded." Bumblebee huffed. "it's why I leaked energon so easily the other day when Sentinel kicked my chestplate. its sore and sensitive and swollen." Bumblebee added. Ratchet and Wheeljack stared at him. "honestly doc bot, I thought you would've picked it up by now. I didn't realize you of all people didn't know.... can't you feel it through the family bond or something?" Bumblebee ask. Ratchet shook his head.

"it's different from a spark bond." Ratchet replied. Bumblebee shrugged, not really caring.

"so how is the sparkling healing Prowl?" Bumblebee asks.

"I'm not sure just yet." Ratchet replied.

"on the brightside, all I have to do is lay here and cuddle with him for a few hours or so." Bumblebee said, slipping back on the berth beside Prowl happily.

"Wheeljack keep an eye on them." Ratchet said heading for the red room, to get a few cubes of energon. Wheeljack headed to get his datapad from the room. Prowl muttered softly wakking up and rubbing his chest plate.

"what happened?" Prowl muttered.

"the sparkling is healing you." Bumblebee said.

"so they know now?" Prowl muttered.

"just Ratchet and Wheeljack." Bumblebee replied.

"good then I can say this, if you ever run out into a decepticon attack and put you and the sparkling in danger again like you did, I will fragging tie you down to the berth for the rest of your carrying cycle." Prowl growled. Bumblebee laughed and hugged his side, rubbing his middle gently.

"I'm scared now." Bumblebee said softly.

"of what Bee?" Prowl ask softly, kissing his helm.

"Sentinel. wh-what will happen i-if he finds out about the sparkling?" Bumblebee whimpers softly. Prowl kissed his helm again holding him tightly.

"he won't until our sparkling is old enough to defend themselves and, Primus forbid, he does ever find out about our sparkling and threatens to or actually does harm them, I will throw him to the Decepticons." Prowl replied. "or, whats left of him at least. you know Ratchet and I will get our servo's on him." Prowl added.

"not to mention me, your sister, Optimus, Bulkhead, and Jazz will also be there to beat the slag out of him." Wheeljack said reading his datapad. Bumblebee looked over and smiled.

"thanks Wheeljack." Bumblebee said. Wheeljack nodded at him, his head fins flashed with aqua, in amusement.

"you and Burnbee are Ratchets world you know that right? he feels guilty that he was never able to find you and eventually gave up, fearing you were offlined. you know that right?" Wheeljack ask. Bumblebee looked at him.

"huh? why?" Bumblebee ask.

"because he was away, looking for something to bring your mother back to life when the day care was raided. you were the only one taken. most others were killed or injured, but you were taken. tore him apart." Wheeljack replied. Bumblebee looked down.
