Argh now I have to review in advance thanks to Silent Shooter! Anyways here we are! Things are picking up in the story. I'm actually torn between two different plot twists right now which is a bitch. Argh! Anyways I'm not gonna carry on too much! I DO NOT OWN TRANSFORMERS!

(Clare's POV)

It was Saturday afternoon and I had just gotten out of training with Arcee and Flareup. The first thing that I wanted to do was find Sunny but no matter where I looked I couldn't find him. He had patrol this morning but they should have been back by now.

I stalked through the living quarters towards my room.

My thoughts were consuming me so much that I did not hear the sounds coming from inside. I got a shocking surprise when the doors slid open.

My creators were...fragging. Dad had opi bent over the berth...and I didn't need to repeat what they were doing. Thankfully the bond was dulled down so I backed away without even making a sound before they noticed me.

Ok so I wasn't going to go in there for a while. Maybe the twins were in their room? It wouldn't hurt me to check it out so I started in that direction.

I hadn't seen either twin all day, not even before their morning patrol. It was like they were avoiding me. Well that was about to end right now!

As I approached the twin's room I heard yelling coming from inside. Probably Sides getting mad at a video game or something. At least I thought so at first, but when I heard Sunny yelling back it gave me reason to stop in my tracks. Sunny and Sides yelling? At each other? The former never yelled at a video game so it had to be.

My peds carried me closer to the door where the sounds of yelling and roaring resonated from. The loudest coming from Sides surprisingly.

"I just don't understand how much longer you want to put me through this! How much longer do you want to make me wait!?" Sides yelled. Whatever they were fighting about was serious if they were screaming at each other like this instead of using bond talk.

"As long as it takes!" Sunny snapped back.

"And how do you know you're getting anywhere?! Have you asked her?!"

Her? Ask who what? What were they even talking about? I pressed my audio against the door to get a better listen. Snooping wasn't my thing but I had to know what had them fighting like this.

"No! I just don't understand why you can't wait just this once! It's always me that has to wait! It's always me that has to deal with the rejection!"

"Rejection?! Sunny since when have either of us ever really cared about that?! Femmes are femmes right? That's what you always say! You never cared as long as you got fragged!"

I winced at Sides' sharp accusation. Was that really how Sunny was before? And what was this fight all about anyways? I didn't understand what had started it! Maybe an old femmefriend or something? That thought unsettled me as much as the idea of Sunny being rejected seemed asinine. Who would ever reject him? Pit who would ever reject either of them?

"You know that's not true! It's just that whenever I care it's never as good as what you feel! They only ever care about you! Everybot cares about you and not me unless I'm fragging them!"

"Sunny...that's not true." I murmured brokenly. It may not mean much but I cared about him. I thought that he knew that, that it made a difference. Maybe I was wrong.

"I call bullshit on that! I call bullshit on all of it! Just because you can't see what's right in front of you doesn't mean that I can't! If you keep living in the past you'll never be able to move on! It's not fair to Clare either!"

Not fair to me? What was that supposed to mean? Sides sounded so mad.

"She's my problem not your's! You only care because you want her to fawn over you! You want to take her from me and keep her for yourself! And you know once that happens she'll forget all about me!"

I stumbled back away from the door in shock. They were fighting over me?! Why?! They should care more about each other than fighting over me! I stood there trembling anxiously, inner turmoil eating at me. Why? Why?!

Why would Sunny think that about me?! And Sides...was this why he was suffering so much? Because Sunny wouldn't share me? Since when had both wanted me anyways?! I just didn't understand any of it!

I mean I knew that split sparks had to share a mate but... Well I just assumed that Sides didn't want me so it wasn't an issue. And as much as that had hurt me...to realize that Sunny and I had no real future together, it had not stopped me from caring for him as much as I was able. Which admittedly was a lot more than I thought possible at first. I was positive that...I was falling in love with him. Maybe I was just naive and young but he made me feel happier than ever.

What was I supposed to do? March in and tell them to stop fighting? Demand answers? Or walk away and pretend that I never heard the fight in the first place? This was all just too much to take in! Just yesterday I had moved into the next step of my relationship with Sunny and now I found out that Sides wanted me too? And worse was that Sunny knew and hid it from me? In effect hurting them both?

My spark swelled with sudden anger. Just because-just because I cared about him did not mean that he had the right to keep something like this from me! I would never treat one of them better than the other! Why would he think that about me?!

Angry energon tears welled up in my optics before spilling down my cheeks. They caused my vision to blur almost to the point that I couldn't see what was right in front of me. I did hear the angry peds storming towards the door, though I had no time to move before it slid open.

Sides was the one that stormed out in a rush freezing in place when he almost stepped on me.

I jumped back and took off down the hall as fast as I could.

"Clare wait!" He called after me.

There was a loud commotion coming from their doorway but I paid it no mind. It never occurred to me to stop fleeing and talk to them. Nor did it ever occur to me that they would chase me. I never even thought to look behind me and see.

"Clare!" This time it was Sunny who yelled for me.

The sounds of peds pounding down the hall behind me forced me into a frenzy. I pushed myself as hard as I could. Running as fast as my frame could handle. Systems protesting and overheating until I started burning inside. My HUD started flashing red warning me that I was overheating. I didn't care.

I didn't care enough to stop. Unfortunately the world chose to stop me by placing a wall of solid metal in front of me. I slammed into it sending pain shooting through all of my sensors as I went sprawling to the floor.

Ironhide was staring down at me in surprise. "Are you ok Clare?"

"Clare!"

My body tensed a whine of distress building up in my chassis. I leapt up only to fall back down when my relays locked from my elevated temperature. I was in the red. Still I tried to move away from their approach as fruitless as the attempt was.

Salvation came when Ironhide picked me up just as the twins came bounding up to us. The large black mech glared at both of them as he cradled me in his arms like a sparkling. "What did you two do to her?" He hissed.

"We...she heard us fighting about something and she got upset." Sides explained. He inched forward carefully snapping back when Ironhide growled at him. "We just need to talk to her."

"I think you've talked enough to make her red line."

Now that he mentioned it I was burning alive from the inside out. It was not pleasant. It hurt. My entire frame rattled with each breath through my vents. They even sounded rickety and faulty. Ratchet was going to be slagged off.

"Just hand her over!" Sunny demanded. "We only wanna talk to her!"

"No I think not. Until you can get it together you can stay far away." With that Ironhide turned and started in the opposite direction.

Before we were out of hearing range I heard one last soft plea. "Clare please..."

Surprisingly enough it came from Sunny not Sides. Even more surprising was how I forced myself not to respond. I didn't even look back at them. It was me. All this time it was me forcing them apart.

And all because Sunny didn't trust me like I trusted him. It was this revelation that had caused me so much pain. But I didn't want to think about it.

Ironhide kept glancing down at me during the trip to the med bay but he said nothing. I was grateful for it since I didn't want to talk either. I didn't say a damn thing even when we walked into the med bay where Ratchet shot us a glare upon entering.

It softened into a look of concern when I didn't make any remarks to anger him further. He gestured for Ironhide to sit me on a berth so that he could examine me. Hide did so then took up a post near the door like a guard.

Ratchet looked me over carefully grimacing at the sounds my vents were making. "You overheated. What caused this to happen?"

"Nothing."

The weakness of the answer clearly startled him. "Nothing? Nothing does not make a femme overheat until she's red lining."

I only shrugged.

Now he looked really concerned. "Well Clare as long as you rest and do not strain yourself you should be fine. Your systems suffered no lasting damage."

"Ok." So just lay here? Fine. I'd lay here all day and sulk.

I didn't notice both mechs share a worried look bordering on anger until Ironhide stormed out of the med bay. Then I looked up at where he had been and saw that he was gone. All I did was roll over onto my side facing away from the door where I planned on staying until Ratchet let me leave the med bay.

Afterwards I was going to spend the rest of the night in my room tucked away from the world. At least until I figured out what I wanted to say to the twins. Especially Sunny. It may seem small and unimportant but what I had found out really hurt me. Badly.

I didn't know how I was going to face him now. Either of them. All this time we could have all happy together. Sharing experiences with one another. Instead thanks to Sunny I had inadvertantly created tension and disharmony between them. What was worse was that all I had done was not know the entirety of the situation. At some point I had to apologize to Sides.

I heard the med bay door open and close before the room went silent. Ratchet must have left to refuel since it was midday. It felt strangely comfortable without him in here.

For roughly ten kliks I laid on the berth thinking about everything that had happened. All of it. Ratchet hadn't come back in that time and neither had Ironhide. My stiff frame seemed to be begging me to move. With a small groan I rolled onto my back and stretched as much as I could. You wouldn't think that it hurt but it did. Tense and stiff relays not wanting to cooperate after the shock to my systems from red lining. That was my guess anyways.

The med bay doors slid open barely half a klik after I moved. My optics shot over to the door fully expecting to land on Ratchet or somebot else... Instead I was met with the sight of the last two bots that I wanted to see right now. The twins.

Both stepped into the room after hitting the locking mechanism on the door. I would have sat up in alarm if I could, but my frame just groaned when I attempted it. Twin grimaces morphed their features telling me that they had heard it too.

Sunny approached my berth first while Sides hovered a bit behind him. "Clare can...can I at least explain everything before you decide never to talk to me again?"

All the things I could think to say to that off the top of my helm flew right out the window in the face of what I did say. "Why did you think that I would be like every other whore?"

He flinched back obviously startled by my anger and the words that had manifested from it. "I didn't think that."

"You did. A whore uses the way you expected me to use you!"

"Clare..." Sides frowned at me. "That isn't what he meant."

There was too much anger in me to allow me to listen to what Sides said. I was on a roll now. I was angry and hurt. On top of that I had a tendency to say exactly what was on my mind and damn the consequences. "What did he mean? What was the point in lying to me?"

"I never-"

"You did! Everytime I asked you if Sides was ok you lied to make sure that I didn't know what was really going on! And here I thought that maybe you trusted me a little bit!"

"I do!"

"No you don't! If you did then you would have never kept the secret from me! Sunny why?! Did I really give you the impression that I was someone that would pick favorites between you two? I would never do that!"

"I know-"

"Obviously you don't know because you still expected me to do it! I don't understand what you wanted to happen here! Did you want me to keep growing more attached to you thinking that nothing real could ever come out of it?"

Both of them gave me an odd look. "What is that supposed to mean?"

I nearly exploded. "IDIOTS! YOU'RE BOTH IDIOTS! YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! YOU'RE SPLIT SPARK TWINS! THAT MEANS THAT I CAN'T TECHNICALLY JUST TAKE ONE AND IT'LL ALL WORK OUT! ANYONE THAT WANTS TO BE WITH ONE HAS TO TAKE THE OTHER AS WELL! YOU FREAKING KNOW THAT!"

A look of understanding passed through twin sets of optics. "We know that but-"

I cut Sides off with another tirade. "YEAH YOU KNEW THAT AND YET YOU BOTH LIED! I THOUGHT THAT AS MUCH AS I CARED IT WOULDN'T BE GOOD ENOUGH BECAUSE IN THE END THE TWO OF US COULD NOT BOND! WE COULDN'T BE MORE THAN JUST AN ORDINARY COUPLE! AND YOU KNOW WHAT? EVEN KNOWING THAT I STILL GAVE YOU EVERYTHING I COULD! I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING I WAS ABLE TO AND YOU FUCKING LIED TO ME!"

By the end of my tirade I was focused almost entirely on Sunny causing him to grimace. He looked like he was getting angry as well but I didn't care. I was too slagged off to care!

"IF I DIDN'T FUCKING CARE ABOUT YOU I WOULD NOT HAVE LET YOU TOUCH ME!" I practically shrieked. "IF I DIDN'T CARE I WOULD NEVER HAVE TOUCHED YOU EITHER! FUCKING AROUND ISN'T SOMETHING THAT I TAKE LIGHTLY AND YOU KNOW IT!"

"Baby please calm down."

"NO! I JUST DON'T GET YOU! USE YOU IN THE BERTH? DROP YOU LIKE YOU'RE WORTHLESS? THAT'S WHAT I GOT FROM THAT LITTLE ARGUMENT I OVERHEARD! YOU EXPECTED THAT FROM ME? SUNNY IF I WANTED TO USE YOU I WOULD HAVE FUCKED YOU AND DUMPED YOU ALREADY! I WOULDN'T HAVE CONTINUED PUTTING UP WITH THE LESS DESIRABLE ASPECTS OF YOUR PERSONALITY BECAUSE GUESS WHAT!" I waited for him to answer me, to say something but he didn't say a single word. Good. Cause I probably would have cut him off anyways. "NOTHING WOULD HAVE BEEN MAKING ME STAY! I WOULD'VE JUST ACTED THE PART OF A WHORE AND SPREAD MY FREAKING LEGS! BUT I DIDN'T! I DON'T HAVE TO! I STAY BECAUSE OF THE THINGS THAT I FEEL AND NOTHING ELSE! WHAT THE HELL ELSE DO I HAVE TO STAY FOR? WE'RE NOT FRAGGING! SO HOW CAN I EVEN BE CONTEMPLATING USING YOU FOR THAT WHEN I'VE NEVER EVEN DONE ANYTHING LIKE THAT?!"

"Clare you're going to red line again." Sides warned me.

It was true that I could feel the head building up inside of me again. Sensing this I made myself calm down a bit.

"Are you done now? Can I talk?"

"Shoot."

"Clare I know that you're angry at me for keeping things from you."

"Damn right!"

Sunny frowned. "I know that you're angry but I had a reason for it."

"You better."

His frown deepened mouth opening several times like he wanted to say something but couldn't decide what. Eventually he gritted his denta together in frustration. "My reason for keeping it from you was selfish. I know that, but Clare look at it from my perspective. I'm an afthole, we all know it. Sides is the complete opposite of me, open and affectionate. Can't you see why I acted the way I did when you put all of these things together?"

I shook my helm no. Why would I see anything when I didn't compare them like it was a contest? Sides was Sides. Sunny was Sunny. They were who they were and I was ok with that. They were one person in two bodies, two aspects of one person down to the different personalities. There was one mech in two bodies. If anyone wanted to get technical you couldn't like one more than the other-!

My optics widened as a realization dawned on me making me look at Sunny in a new light. He was scared that I would like Sides more than him! That was why he kept Sides' feelings for me a secret! Because he felt like he wouldn't measure up where it counts. "Sunny...you idiot." I sighed and forced my body closer to his so that I could touch one of his clenched servos. "If you had told me earlier I would have cleared this all up you know?"

"Cleared what up baby?"

"This whole mess! I would never have let it get this far." How stupid was I? If I had paid more effort in terms of fixing this and not being so wrapped up in my own infatuation this never would have happened. If I had only said something sooner.

"You two may be different personality wise but that's not a bad thing."

They both cocked their helms at me adorably. "It's not?" Sides questioned.

"No. I can see why Sunny felt the need to keep how you felt a secret from me Sides, but I wouldn't have picked a favorite. There are things that I like about you both equally...I like that you're different. It means that, well it means that I have to stay on my toes when around you two which I enjoy doing. I like the challenge of adapting to both of your mood swings. I don't mind raising pit with you Sides, nor do I mind sitting and talking with you Sunny...even when you're in a mood and being an aft."

"It's your flaws that make you who you are, and me not being able to accept one of you means that I'm not just asking that one to change it means that I'm asking you both to change. If I asked Sunny to not be an aft all the time it would be like me asking him not to be Sunny, and in a way it would be like me asking you both not to be who you are. You're a part of each other. One can't change alone, both have to."

Sides slid towards me with hopeful optics. "So you really don't mind how he is? You don't mind how we both are?"

I shook my helm. "No of course not. I accept you both no matter what and I would never pick favorites or ask either of you to change. That would be selfish of me." I ducked my helm down with an embarrassed blush speaking without looking up. "I like you both how you are. Equally. If either of you had asked I would have told you that."

Movement right in front of me had me looking back up. Sideswipe was right in front of me wearing a wide genuine smile on his face. So different from his normal teasing smirks and my spark sped up slightly in response.

He leaned forward with a soft purr until he was inches from my face.

I hesitated briefly glancing over his shoulder at Sunny who looked less tense than before. "Sides? Umm what are you doing?"

"Kissing you." The words were barely out of his mouth before his lips slammed onto mine.

I squeaked in surprise at the sudden action. Ok what to do? Did this mean that Sunny was done being an aft? If I kissed Sides back was he going to throw a glitch fit? It was hard to keep track of my thoughts when Sides' lips were coaxing me to respond.

And they were so soft, even softer than Sunny's were. Smooth too. After a brief contemplation I decided to just kiss him back. What was the worst thing that could happen?

I did keep the contact brief however. Just a soft sensual kiss. Then I pulled back and was gifted when he caressed my cheek. "Umm no one is going to throw a fit about that right?"

Sunny obviously knew that I was talking about him because he snorted. "No."

Relieved did not even cover how I felt when he gave me the answer I wanted. "Good cause I don't wanna have to deal with two jealous mechs fighting over who gets kisses or not. Now come over here so I can give you one too."

My golden mech rolled his optics but obliged me by moving closer so that I could plant one on him. I lingered just a few astroseconds longer than I had with Sides before pulling back to scowl at him. "But if you ever do something this stupid again I will make good on my threat to beat you in the face with a baseball bat!"

Sides laughed. "Better watch out Sunny or Clare's going to beat your face in with a baseball bat!" He mocked.

"Shut up Sides."

I giggled at both of them. "So umm are the three of us going to...?" The implication was left hanging in the air.

"Date?" Sides guessed with a grin. "Pit yeah! If I have to wait any longer I'm going to glitch!"

"Sunny?"

Sunny scowled. "Fine. But I'm holding you to what you said baby."

"Ok. I promise to honor what I said." Inside I was getting all giddy and excited like I was walking on a cloud. They were both mine! I didn't have to worry about acting on my feelings for either of them anymore! I could do it whenever I wanted to!

The three of us just sat there staring at each other Sides with a huge grin that usually meant he was going to do something either stupid or silly. He suddenly grabbed a hold of me and spun me around laughs escaping from us both.

He tugged Sunny into a three way hug which he protested. Sides shut him up with a well placed smack to the helm forcing him to relent and hug both of us. It was kind of awkward being so small and squished between them, but in felt more right than anything.

A soft happy purr resonated from each of us. I was happy being right where I was.

Unfortunately we all forgot where we were so when the doors beeped indicating that someone was trying to get in we all tensed. Uh oh.

The door slid open revealing a scowling Ratchet. "What are you two doing in my med bay?"

The twins shifted slightly to shield me in case Ratchet went to belt any of us with a wrench. D'awwww they were so protective!

"Talking to Clare." Sides answered him cautiously.

"After Ironhide told you to stay away." It was a statement not a question, spoken with a rapidly growing glare.

"Yes." Sunny growled.

"Give me one good reason that I should not reformat you into a toaster."

I stifled a laugh due to the ridiculous mental image that comment engineered. I'll enlighten you though! It was me walking down into my kitchen early one morning, and there sitting on the counter were two toasters with pretty little blue optics on the side. One was red, and one was gold, and the gold one was scowling at the world.

Mental scenario:

'Good morning Sunny! Morning Sides!' I chirped as I grabbed a bagel from the cupboard and stuck it into the slits on top of Sunny.

'Hey!' He protested. 'You can't make a bagel in me!'

'Oh yes I can! You are a toaster formatted to toast things! I want some toasted bagel therefore I will toast it in you!'

'Ooooh she's using you to toast her buns Sunny!' Sides snickered.

'Shut up Sides.'

End mental scenario.

The image was too much for me to contain my hysterical laughter. My laughter drawing attention from all three mechs in the room. Their gazes burned into the back of my helm as I doubled over as much as I could when pressed between both mechs.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I...Sunny...toaster! My buns!" I choked out in response to Sides' question. Doubted that he could understand what I was saying but hey! It was all that I could manage right now!

They all shared a look...

"She's crazy." The twins muttered.

Well who was I to argue with that?

Later that afternoon I sat in the twin's room with them nestled in Sides' lap. He was clinging to me like crazy, cuddling me at every given opportunity, and refusing to give me to Sunny even when I wanted to switch holds. His excuse was that Sunny had already had almost three months to cuddle and be affectionate with me, without him being able to join in. So for today he got as many free cuddles as he wanted. I guess. Sunny didn't seem like he minded much, probably because I had tried to cuddle with him too.

"So why did you come to our room earlier?" Sides questioned. Right now we were playing Alien Isolation for the XBOX ONE. Well he was playing it not me. Freaking terrifying game.

Oh right I had walked in on my creators fragging earlier. Just thinking about what I had seen made me blush. "Well I got sexed out of house and home."

"Sexed?"

"Err fragged out of house and home. Does that make more sense?"

The game paused abruptly. "You walked in on Prowl and Jazz fragging?"

I looked up at Sides and he was grinning widely. "Umm yes." Was-was that like weird or something? Well of course it was kind of weird walking in on your parents screwing but Sides looked way interested for some reason. "Why?"

"Did you take pictures so that we could post them all over base?"

My jaw dropped as I spluttered. "NO! SIDES THAT IS SO GROSS! WHY WOULD I EVER DO THAT TO MY PARENTS?!"

He pouted. "No fun."

Sunny smacked him over the back of the helm. "Are you trying to get a first class trip to the brig as soon as Prowl finishes having it built?"

Sides didn't respond and it gave me the impression that he was thinking over all of the ramifications of what Sunny had said. I just shook my helm at him in amusement and cuddled closer to him.

Both of his servos cupped around me as a gentle purring started in his chassis.

A sudden idea struck me! All three of us were dating now so maybe a game to get to know each other was in order! Better yet two truths and one lie was a great way to do that! Even better was the fact that I was not wasted and therefore could actually write things that made sense!

I nodded resolutely to myself. "Who wants to do two truths and one lie part two?"

Sides cocked his helm at me. "You want to play it again?"

"Sure. I'm not drunk so the things I say might actually make sense!"

He actually snickered. "Yeah maybe. We already know that you're a femme, and that you don't have a spike."

An embarrassed groan escaped me. "You get wasted and say a few embarrassing things one time and all of a sudden that's all you're about."

They both laughed at me.

"Are we gonna play or not?"

"Sure."

Ok! Jeez all they had to say was that in the first place! I took a pad of paper and three pens out from my subspace before ripping off nine pieces from the pad to write on. Passing out three pieces and a pen to each of us we all turned away and started writing on the pages.

I thought long and hard about what I wanted to say before scribbling it down onto my pieces of paper. Once I was finished I folded them into tiny squares and snatched up the XBOX ONE box that Sides still had on his table for some reason.

We all faced each other and tossed our squares into the box. "Who wants to read?"

Sides eagerly raised his arm. "Me! Ooooh me!"

"Ok Sides!" I passed the box over with a giggle.

He snatched it up and rummaged through it grabbing one of the squares closest to the bottom. His optics were bright with excitement as he opened the slip to read it. "When I was little I pushed someone off of a bridge."

That one was mine...and I choked down a laugh to keep fom giving myself away.

They cocked their helms towards each other as they communed over the twin bond, probably to make sure that neither of them had done something like that. After a moment they both turned towards me with raised optic ridges. "Who did you push off of a bridge?"

"Sam. And there was a river underneath so he didn't go splat onto anything. Too bad he couldn't swim at the time so I had to jump in and save him from drowning."

"Poor Sam...poor organic has no chance against a femme bot." Sides shook his helm at me his attempt at hiding his amusement was pathetic.

I chuckled. "He deserved it."

Sunny took the chance to pull me onto his lap. "He is annoying... If Optimus hadn't banned us from harming humans I would push him off of a bridge."

We both ignored that comment in favor of continuing the game. Sides drew another slip from the box and read it. "I'm a pisces...I think. What's a piesces?"

"It means that my birthday is in February. My Aunt and Uncle don't know my real birthday so they just celebrate it every year on the day that they found me on their doorstep, which happens to be February nineteenth."

Sides looked at me sadly. "That's your spark orn?"

"It's the one that I go by." I shrugged. The knowledge that my birthday was not based on the actual day of my birth didn't really bother me. At least not anymore. My family always celebrated it and made me feel like I meant something so it was all good. I would probably never know my real one anyways so why care about it?

I think that they sensed that I didn't want to talk about it because Sides pulled another slip from the box. "I made Prowl glitch six times in one solar cycle."

My response was immediate. "Sides."

Said bot grinned. "What can I say? I've got the magic touch."

"More like excessive bouts of idiocy." Sunny grumbled.

"That could be true." Sides shrugged. He pulled the next slip out. "I'm utmost perfection."

We both looked up at Sunny. "Really?"

He huffed. "It's true."

"Debatable." Sides argued. Sunny reached out to smack him so he scooted away. "You can't hit the reader!"

"Like I give a frag!" Sunny growled before whacking him anyways.

"Mean." Sides pouted. "Ok so the next one says I've never stolen."

This one was obviously a hard one for them to decide who wrote it since obviously it was probably a lie from all three of us. I kicked my peds while I waited for them to figure it out. At least my choices were giving them something to think about.

"Clare?" Sides guessed.

"Yup! You and Sunny have stole too?"

"Well yeah. We were orphans who grew up on the streets so stealing was essential."

Oh...I had no idea. I didn't push the issue however since it seemed to bother Sides even saying that.

"What did you steal?"

I smiled in embarrassment. "Well once when I was like four I stole some gum from a gas station so my Aunt made me take it back and apologize to the worker. It was just a piece of gum seriously!"

The mood seemed to lighten with their chuckles. "Really? She made you take it back?"

"Yup. Then I got grounded for a week for stealing. I still don't get how you can ground a four year old but hey it meant that I was not allowed to snack or play outside so I hated it."

Sides grimaced. "I would too."

"Oh well it happened forever ago so no use complaining about it. Let's just finish the game."

"Ok."

(Sides' POV)

Sunny had left a while ago to use the wash racks leaving Clare and I alone in our room. I currently had her settled in my lap while she played a game. My optics kept wandering from the screen to her then back again. Ultimately they ended up locked on her while she cursed at the screen after getting killed again.

"Who even plays COD anymore? Seriously! It's all corner campers and drop shotting little bitches!" With a huff she flopped back against my stomach plating after placing the controller down on the couch.

"Hack the game back." I suggested. That's what I did when the organics cheated the system. Too bad for them nobot could hack a server like a Cybertronian could. Most of them left the game in a rage.

"I don't know how to do that yet." She sighed. "Ratchet hasn't even given me access to the internet yet. He says that my firewalls aren't updated and that I'll get a virus if I do."

"You could. And they aren't fun. They're kind of like the human equivelant to a really bad flu."

"Ewww. Never had one but Sam has and it was the grossest thing I have ever seen. He puked up enchiladas all over the floor. Completely ruined the food for me."

While she spoke to me one of her servos started rubbing my leg distractedly. The touch was soft as a gust of wind brushing against the plates. It felt good and I revved my engine softly in response.

Her helm popped up optics wide as she snatched her servo back.

We stared at each other for a moment...me still somewhat awed that I finally got to be a part of the relationship when for the last three months I had just been an onlooker. I had seen enough in her interactions with Sunny and the other bots to know that she was everything that I wanted. No femme in my life had ever been like her. They were always too clingy, all about the lust which was ok sometimes but when you were looking for something real it just didn't work out, or they had everything I wanted but just could not bounce back and forth between Sunny and I.

It was always harder for Sunny than it was for me however. I always hated how he tried so hard only for the femmes to get put off because of one little scowl and flock to me. Eventually he gave up trying and just used them for interface.

The rejection he always felt ate at me until I sent the femmes packing. Clare had been right, you could not take one of us without taking the other. Those femmes weren't right for us but I was sure that Clare was. Hopefully Primus blessed us with having a proper spark wavelength so that we could bond.

I came back down from my thoughts when said femme climbed up my chassis until she was face level with me. She smiled shyly and kissed my cheek before ducking her helm down against my neck.

My chassis rumbled with laughter. I had to admit that I had never been with a femme that was so shy and innocent. It really was refreshing.

I nuzzled her helm and she nuzzled back with a soft purr. She lifted her helm giving me the perfect opening to press my lips against her's.

Her lips were softer than any femme I had ever kissed before, and she tasted sweet. The movements of her lips against mine were slow and hesitant belying ther innocence. For some reason knowing that she was a virgin only turned me on more.

I stepped things up a bit by flicking my glossa over her bottom lip. She gasped allowing me to slip in and lap at her own small glossa which was surprisingly even sweeter than her lips. My entire frame shuddered in pleasure.

A soft hissing broke us apart as Sunny came back into the room. He took one look at us and snatched Clare from me.

"Hey!" I protested.

"Clare needs to go back to her room and get some recharge." Was his grumpy response.

Oh right today had been stressful for her. "Alright. We gonna walk her back?"

Sunny just grunted sending an affirmative over the bond.

I stood as well and together we walked out the door to take Clare back to her room. The trip was silent until we closed in on said room my audios picking up the sound of grunts and moans. (They're still going at it!)

Sunny sighed. (Sounds like it.)

(Guess she's gonna have to stay with us tonight.) That thought did not displease me at all.

Clare didn't seem to have heard the sounds yet, or it was more accurate to say that she was half way into recharge in Sunny's arms. Before either of us could stop her she clumsily scrambled down and hit the door button.

And we all got the worst optic full ever!

Clare jumped back with a startled squeak when the door slid open all the way to reveal her adoptive creators going at it on the berth, Prowl had Jazz's legs up over his shoulders...

They both looked over at all of us and gaped.

We gaped back...I snapped a few pictures as well.

And then everything went to slag.

"SIDESWIPE! SUNSTREAKER!" Prowl lost his cool and bellowed at the top of his vocaliser.

As soon as he jumped off of the berth and came at us I reacted by scooping Clare up and fleeing as fast as I could. "Oh slag! I guess you're recharging with us tonight spark!"

She shuddered. "O-Ok!"

One thing was for sure...I would forever be haunted by what I had seen.
