Ratchet had been feeling generally pretty good lately. He was hailed as the savior of the universe and things seemed to becoming at least somewhat normal. They were back in their apartment on Metropolis. With no major threats to the galaxy or universe, the duo mainly spent their time relaxing and enjoying themselves. Everything seemed great. Well… almost everything.

Something had been bothering Ratchet recently. He had been having these very strange reoccurring dreams about his friend Clank for the past few weeks.

Now Ratchet had always looked at Clank as a best friend, one that he never would or even could replace with anyone or anything. They could go through anything together. However, In Ratchet's dreams, he and clank had been doing some rather very inappropriate things. Ratchet didn't know what to think of them. Part of him really enjoyed them yet the other told him that it was wrong.

In his dreams, Clank was a lot different. He was certainly much taller, about Ratchet's height, perhaps a little taller. Also, Clank had some rather "unique attachments" to say the least. Despite being incredibly confused about his dreams, he had to admit that he found Clank's new form in his dreams…well… sexy.

"Ratchet?" Clank asked concernedly "You seem to be concerned with something. What's wrong?"

"Huh, oh sorry buddy, I was just thinking." Ratchet replied quickly realizing that while he was thinking, he was staring blankly into space.

"About what?" Clank asked.

"Don't worry about it, it's nothing." Ratchet said.

"By the look on your face, it doesn't look like nothing. Are you sure you're fine?" Clank asked a little suspiciously.

"Trust me Clank, I'm fine. It's just…just…" Ratchet stated as he was trying to come up with an excuse.

Ratchet paused and sighed.

"It's just that I miss Alister." He said sadly even though that wasn't really what was on his mind.

Thinking about Alister really did make Ratchet sad but he knew that he was lying. It's true, Ratchet still did miss him but he had already accepted the loss of Alister and was starting to move on. Not only that but he hates having to lie to Clank yet he doesn't know how to tell him the truth. Plus, Ratchet was afraid how his friend would react. He seriously doubted Clank thought of him as anything other than a friend.

"Oh, I'm sorry about The General but you have to move on Ratchet" Clank said trying to counsel Ratchet. "It's been months now anyway, Azimuth wouldn't want to see you still sad over him."

"Don't be sorry. It's no one's fault he's gone. Besides, I know you're right." Ratchet sighed.

"Ratchet, at least now he's in peace. Relax and get some rest." Clank told Ratchet.

Ratchet smiled slightly. Clank really knew how to cheer him up.

"Thanks Pal" Ratched said feeling grateful that he had a friend like clank."

"Oh and one more thing Ratchet, just remember you can tell me anything" Clank told Ratchet caringly.

Ratchet Sighed again and just replied "I know."

After thinking about his recent dreams for a few more minutes, Ratchet decided he really wanted to tell Clank about his dreams but he wasn't even sure how he felt about them. He was going talk to Clank about his strange dreams as soon he sorted it all out.

"Clank, can I ask you something?" asked Ratchet.

"Sure, what is it?" Clank asked back.

"Have you ever wanted to tell someone how you felt about them but you were too afraid how they'd react?" Ratchet asked.

"Well, that depends." Clank stated "Do you know if they feel the same way about you."

"I have no idea" Ratchet said quietly.

"Come on Ratchet, let's get some rest." Clank suggested noticing that it was already dark.

"You're right Clank" Ratchet responded "let's go to bed."

Ratchet didn't normally go to bed until really early in the morning but Ratchet felt tired tonight for some reason.

With that Ratchet and Clank went to their room. Clank started getting ready to start charging as Ratchet started to strip down. Clank didn't mind seeing Ratchet naked and Ratchet didn't mind Clank seeing him naked. Besides, he slept better naked anyways.

Now, Ratchet was a quite attractive lombax. His body was very toned and fit from all the adventures he and Clank went on. Clank couldn't help but notice that Ratchet's sheathed member was rather well endowed. His balls were also quite large and went well with his member. Just like the rest of his body, his ass was much toned and firm plus his tail really went greatly with his rear too.

Clank would stare occasionally when Ratchet was naked although it was out of curiosity, not lust. Clank was merely studying Ratchet, nothing more. Sometimes, he wondered what it would be like if he was more anatomically correct, if he actually had those "parts" like Ratchet. He imagined what it would be liked but tried to forget about shortly after though. He was a robot after all, he was just being ridiculous.

Clank stared at Ratchet for a few more moments as he started to charge also wondering what Ratchet wanted to say and to whom. He immediately put it out of his thoughts though as soon as Ratchet noticed that Clank was staring at him.

Ratchet smiled a bit. He was actually a bit flattered that Clank would stare at his naked body.

"Sorry Ratchet, I didn't mean to stare" Clank said apologetically. He wasn't sure if Ratchet was comfortable with it.

"It's alright little buddy. I'm actually kind of flattered." Ratchet said still smiling.

They both laughed a little at Ratchet's comment but Ratchet wasn't embarrassed. Clank was his best friend after all, why should he be embarrassed if he stares at him naked?

"Clank, can I ask you one more thing." Ratchet asked.

"Well, you sure have a lot of questions today." Clank responded.

"So, maybe later then?" Ratchet asked feeling a little hurt

"No, of course, go ahead" Clank said quickly after. He didn't want to hurt or offend Ratchet.

"Just saying, it might sound kind of stupid though." Ratchet said feeling better.

"It's alright, I'm used to it." Clank said feeling smug.

"Well I wanted to know-hey, wait a minute!" Ratchet nearly yelled as soon as he realized the joke.

Clank laughed for a moment while Ratchet was kind of annoyed.

Clank was a great friend but still…he had his moments.

"Sorry Ratchet" Clank said still laughing a little. "I couldn't resist."

"Whatever" Ratchet said while crossing his arms and rolling his eyes.

"Anyways, what did you want to tell me?" Clank asked.

"Well, I wanted to know if you think that we'll always be friends" Ratchet asked with somewhat of a serious tone.

"Well, even if I'm Orvus's son. I can't know for sure but I hope we always will be." Clank said now also serious.

"Thanks pal" Ratchet said smiling once again.

"You're welcome" Clank said half jokingly.

"Well, good night Ratchet." Clank said as he powered down to recharge for the night.

"Good night Clank." Ratchet responded as he got into bed.

Ratchet watched Clank power down from his bed. He thought about those dreams he had been having lately but tried to push them out of his thoughts.

"Relax Ratchet, it's nothing. Just forget about it and go to sleep" Ratchet told himself.

Unfortunately for Ratchet, It was still stuck in his mind.

"Come on Ratchet, just calm down" Ratchet said still trying to forget about his dreams.

"I've been through a lot with Clank but it's not like we would ever do… well, it. It's not like we even could if we wanted to." Ratchet said sounding almost sad at the end of his sentence.

Ratchet struggled but managed to keep his mind clear long enough to actually become sleepy. In the back of his head, he was still hoping he wouldn't have those dreams again even if he did kind of like them.

Ratchet turned to his side to stare at Clank before he slept.

"I love you Clank, I hope I can tell you one day just how important you are to me" Ratchet whispered quietly just before he passed out as he stared at Clank.

Ratchet fell asleep seconds later.
