Metalsound ran through the forest in her beast form, ducking behind the trees and waiting for Thunderhoof to find her.

Thunderhoof soon catches up to her, "So what is it you want to do?"

Jumping up Metalsound pinned him to the ground rubbing her helm against his, "You have no idea how much I've missed you."

"You have no idea how much I missed you, you have no idea how sparkbroken I was when I got back from my mission and heard you were gone."

"I'm sorry," she said sadly as her ears folded back, "I know I hurt you, but what would you have done differently? Would you have come with me or stayed behind?"

"I would have come with you, I would go wherever you go."

"Even if it meant leaving Steeljaw behind?"

"The mech can take care of himself."

"But you are part of the same pack. Just because he can take care of himself doesn't mean he should have to. You start to depend only on yourself, you don't get involved when or if someone is in trouble when you know you can help them. I want to stay with my pack, I'm tired of being alone. I know it's selfish of me but I'm speaking the truth and from experience."

"I know, but I would if it means being with my mate."

Purring softly she nuzzled his cheek, her tail wrapping around his leg. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer, "I was thinking we could have fun, but since we're being watched by those two we can't."

"Come on you two, not in front of us," Sideswipe says with a disgusted face.

"We'll have some fun another time when we're alone. I can promise you that," Thunderhoof says with a smirk. Metalsound gets off of him and they start walking through the forest admiring the view.

After Strongarm left with Steeljaw to go to her quarters Drift went up to Bumblebee, "Bumblebee, are you sure it is wise to have Steeljaw sleep in Strongarm's quarters?"

"Would you rather him sleep in your quarters, or Gimlock's, or Sideswipe's? I know for a fact Sideswipe would never go with it, and I think Grimlock would try to pick a fight with him," Bumblebee replied, "I don't think he'll do anything she doesn't want him to do."

"If you say so."

"Was there anything else?"

"We're just all concerned for Strongarm's wellbeing, especially after what Steeljaw did to her."

"I know everyone is concerned for her, I am too, but she can handle herself if he tries anything."

"I know she can, she's a very capable warrior. But I still think that he should be severely punished."

"I think community service will be plenty of punishment, besides it's not like he raped her she did it willingly, sure she didn't know she would become his mate but still at least it wasn't forcibly. Besides, let's not forget who her sire is and who Steeljaw must face later."

"Her sire is Ultra Magnus, right?"

"Yes."

"In that case, Steeljaw really has some tough times ahead of him."

Steeljaw and Strongarm had just reached her quarters and went in, "Well, here it is. Nothing like the room you had on the ship but it was all I could get out of what I had."

"It's alright, you've done well with what you've had. It's better than my old den when we first met."

She giggled, "Yes it is."

"So, is there anything that you wanted to do?"

"Well, there is one thing," she replies starting to run a servo over his stomach and giving him a sexy and flirty look. She moves closer to his ear and whispers in a sexy voice, "If you're up to the task."

"I am more than up to the task cadet," he replied before pressing his lips onto hers, kissing her passionately. His servo roamed over her stomach and down to her interface panel. Wrapping his tail around her waist his other servo caressed her cheek.

She puts a servo down on his servo that was on her panel and started moving it across her panel to make the sensation deeper as she starts moaning into the kiss. Chuckling softly he took the hint and started massaging her panel as he removes his servo away from her cheek, gliding it down to her chest. She pulls back breaking the kiss as she throws her helm back in a big moan, "Oh yes, Steeljaw..."

Gently leading her to her berth he pushed her down as he kissed her at the base of her neck, and she wrapped her arms around his neck, "Oh. Take my panel off Steeljaw."

"Getting impatient, are we?" He teased as he took her panel off. Slowly he slid a finger into her wet port.

"Ahhh yes!"

Leaving a trail of kisses down her body he stopped just above her clit. Adding a second finger he started thrusting slowly as he teased the sensitive bundle of wires with his tongue sending a warm and pleasuring sensation through her frame, making her gasp and moan.

Her moans were like music to his ears, removing his servo from her now-wet port he removed his own interface panel, moaning when he felt that his spike was free. Slowly he entered her while placing a passionate kiss on her lips. She moaned into the kiss as she moved her hips wanting him to start thrusting.

Moving his own hips he started thrusting into her, moaning when he felt her port clenching around his spike. Strongarm grasped his back as she felt his spike moving in and out of her port. Slowly his thrusts grew faster as he kissed the base of her neck. He could feel that he was close to his climax.

She could feel she was at hers too and starts moaning and shouting out his name as she overloaded. His lips collided with hers after he shouted her name when he felt his body shudder as he came inside her. Trying to cool his systems he caressed her cheek with the back of his claws, "I love you," he whispered before giving her a passionate kiss. Slowly sliding himself out he lays beside her, his servo intertwined with hers.

"I love you too, Steeljaw," she says as she snuggles up to him. Wrapping his arms around her he held her close as they drifted off to sleep.
