Knockout closed his eyes as Breakdown moved his mouth from his lips, down his chest, to between his legs. He tried to think only of Breakdown and what Breakdown was doing, but flashes of HIS hand, HIS tung inside him HIS fingers in the wires…He shivered and Breakdown noticed the fear in his mate. As bad as he needed to mate, he pulled Knockout into his arms. Knockout shooked as he clung to his boyfriend.

Breakdown: you don't have to put me first, Red, you need time to heal…I'm happy just holding you
Knockout: what if…if..I never..get whole..?
Breakdown: don't worry about that, Red, just clung as tight as you have to

Optimus prime watched the broken couple. He wish he could fix Knockout. He had never thought much on the car mech. He was turned off by his ego, he wished he had seen it for what it was. He deiced to go see if Starscream was having any luck with ratchet.

Starscream: one more word out of you and I will duck tape your mouth shut…
Ratchet: but I need it and this will go away!
Starscream: I do not care, I am not fucking you
Ratchet: come on…Starscream…I can't last much longer…
Starscream: NO
Ratchet: not even…
Starscream: NO
Ratchet: come on…please…Starscream…you know I'm not lying..
Starscream: that's not the point, Ratchet, seekers are always carriers and I have zero plans of carrying YOUR sparkling as long as I am sober
Ratchet: dammit…just..touch me!
Starscream: ratchet, your not yourself…
Ratchet: starscream..just..do it!

Starscream eyed him and not realizing he was being watched by Optimus, he picked up a tool and deiced to end this before Ratchet robbed him of his sanity. He had never done this personally but he had seen other Decepticons do it.

Starscream: just to shut you up before I off myself!
Ratchet(eyeing the tool): that's..not..really what.. I meant….uh…

Starscream rolled his eyes and shoved it into drooled in pleasure as Starscream lazily moved the tool in and out, reading a book with his other hand. Optimus Prime just stared, not sure what freaked him out more, the fact he couldn't stop staring or the fact Starscream could do such an act one handed.

Optimus Prime: uh…Starscream?
Starscream: yep?
Optimus Prime: uh..how can you be..so..uh
Starscream: calm?
Optimus Prime: yeah…
Starscream: he;s finally shut up! I couldn't take much longer…
Optimus Prime: so..you..uh….shoved a ratchet..uh..there..?
Starscream: not very scientific mind you..but..silence is bliss
Optimus Prime: sometimes I wonder about your sanity
Starscream: hmmm…I get that a lot
Optimus Prime: does that…even feel..uh..good?
Starscream: do tell, boss man
Optimus Prime: wait..no…that's not what I..uh..meant!
Starscream: poor poor Knockout…all this time flirting with you and you got wing envy
Optimus Prime: uh..I..um…dam
Starscream: don't worry, I wont tell Acree

Optimus Prime shook his head and tried to leave, but he couldn't stop staring at the seeker. He knew one right stoke of those wings and the seeker would be in bliss, one wrong stoke, and the seeker would be extreme pain. He cursed the images, he wasn't gay but Starscream was smart, cleaver and very beautiful.
