Rugon took his time looking at a display of protoform training wheels for his now deca-cycle old creation, who was playing with a drawing pad close by. He looked at the display, all of them too expensive for the pay he was making. Rugon sighed before walking over to Ratchet and picked him up as the mechling squirmed in his grasp, giggling and cooing making the mech smile.

"Come on, Ratchet, it's not like you need those wheels to learn how to walk. It might take a little longer, but it's less expensive." Rugon said as he placed Ratchet on his shoulders, much to the liking of Ratchet who loved riding on his sire's shoulders. The mechling made fast clicking noises that all protoforms make, and only a sire, or carrier can understand as he exclaimed, "Good, I never wanted one anyway!"

Rugon gave a small chuckle at his creations remark before he made his way home, Ratchet happily squirming around his sitting spot, fascinated by his surroundings. The two got home around 10:00 at night, a good cycle later, Ratchet now slumped over asleep on Rugon's shoulders. Rugon locked the door to their apartment before making his way to their berth room. He carefully took Ratchet off his shoulders and laid him down on a small pile of blankets before laying down on the berth next to him.

Ratchet squirmed in his sleep, trying to become more comfortable in his new position. Rugon silently laughed to himself before he repositioned to lay on his side, and wrapped an arm around the protoform making him top squirming as he curled his small body around his sire's arm. Rugon smiled as he shuttered his optics and let himself drift into recharge.

Rugon woke up to Ratchet excitedly clicking in his audio receptors, "Wake up, sire! It's time to eat!"

The older mech unshuttered his optics slightly, smiling as he grabbed Ratchet quickly and lifted him the air, much to the mechlings surprise.

"Put me down! Put me down! I don't like this!" Ratchet madly clicked as he squirmed in the older mechs hands.

Rugon gave a small chuckle before standing up, and now holding Ratchet in the crook of his arm headed for the living room/kitchen area. He sat Ratchet on the couch before heading to their eneron holder and took out a low and mid grade cube of energon. Rugon took a seat next to Ratchet, giving him the cube of mid grade energon, which he eagerly took and chugged down, some running down his faceplate. After the two had finished their morning energon Rugon commed a friend of hs before turning to Ratchet.

"Ratchet, I have to head off to work, CorkScrew will be here in a little bit, okay?"

Ratchet looked at his sire with puppy dog optics before nodding, understanding the importance of his sire working.

"Good, i'll be back as soon as I can." Rugon said as he gave a quick kiss on his helm before leaving to go to work, CorkScrew coming to take his place inside the apartment a few minutes later.

Rugon had came back home a few hours later, holding a bag with something for Ratchet inside.

"Sire!" Rachet chirped happily from his sitting spot, arms in the air like he wants to be picked up.

Rugon smiled as he walked over and picked up his creation from the floor.

"Thanks for watching him again, CorkScrew, I really appreciate it." He said as he gently stroked a purring Ratchet's helm.

"No problem Rugon, he was a little angel, other than his throwing habit." The shorter mech said, smiling as he got up from the floor.

"Yeah, sorry about that. Anyways see you tomorrow, CorkScrew." The other bot waved while leaving, closing the door behind him.

Ratchet looked at the bag in his sire's hand, and pointed at it with a confused look on his faceplate. Rugon sat down on the couch, setting Ratchet on his lap before taking out a copper stick ( a cheap candy similar to a lollipop made of softened copper). Ratchet reached out for the treat in his sire's hands excitedly, making happy squeals of joy. Rugon gave the copper stick to Ratchet, who eagerly took it and stuck the top half in his mouth and sucked on it. Rugon took out another one from his bag, showing it to Ratchet who still with the first one in his mouth reached for it.

Rugon pulled his hand back, making the distance between it and Ratchet further. "Now, Ratchet, here's the deal. Tomorrow I have the solar cycle off and were going to spend that time teaching you to walk." Rugon points at the copper stick. "And each time you successfully are able to walk, you get a copper ?"

Ratchet quickly nodded, obviously excited for the tomorrows activities. After finishing his treat, Ratchet and Rugon went to their berth for recharge. Rugon was again woken up by excited clicks from his creation, as well as being shaken.

"Wake up, wake up! It's time to learn to walk, sire!" Ratchet clicked.

Rugon groggily sat up in his sleeping position, a sleepy smile on his faceplate.

"Okay, okay, don't get your wires in a twist." He said, picking up the mechling, before getting up and making his way to their living room/kitchen, making sure to grab the bag of sweets on the way.

Rugon put the bag on their couch and sat Ratchet on the floor. He gently grabbed the mechlings hands to help him stand, then proceeded to walk backwards as a wobbly walking Ratchet attempted to walk. Rugon done this a few more times before he placed him back down on the floor and sat down a foot or two away from him.

Rugon gave a motion with his hands for Ratchet to come to him. "Okay, come to sire little buddy."

Ratchet stood up, and attempted to walk over to Rugon, falling a few steps in his attempt to do so on his faceplate. Ratchet looked at his sire, a sad look on his faceplate.

"Try again, you can do it." Rugon said encouragingly, giving the hand motion again.

Ratchet got up wobbly and tried again, this time almost getting to Rugon before falling down, this time on his hands, causing him to scream, and cry. Rugon quickly got up, raced over to Ratchet and picked him up. He gently rocked the mechling in his arms, softly shooshing him. After about five minutes, Ratchets cries had died down to soft whimpers. Rugon took one of Ratchet's hands and gently rubbed it, taking notice of metal Proofing (an effect that occurs after a bot experiences severe pain, which causes the metal in the area to rise on the main painful points ) on them.

Rugon gave Ratchet a kiss on his helm. "It's okay my little mechling. It's okay…"

Rugon walked over to their couch and picked up the bag, taking out a copper stick and gave it to Ratchet, who slowly took it, and put it in his mouth before chirping.

"Thank you, sire…"

( Here's another chapter, I hope yall enjoyed it. Basically to explain this, there's many fanfictions I have read of Ratchet having sensitive hands, mostly because he's a doctor, so I decided to also give him that trait as well. Anyways, hope yall like it, and reviews are appreciated :) )
