Being a Family

4. Completing the Family

Major Will Lennox sat at the table in his kitchen, drinking his black morning coffee and trying to read his newspaper. But his eyes drifted over to the hearth again and again.

It's been three months now.

Three months with the beautiful brunette and his lovely daughter wearing their pink aprons and making breakfast. Three months waking up next to both Hide and finally also the petite brunette. Three months of pure happiness. Going to work, coming back home to Sam and his home-made lunch, his daughter already collected from school, the clothes washed and sometimes when the brunette was really, really bored he even vacuumed and cleaned the house. Epps had been right after all, they got themselves quite the housewife.

Right now, Sam and Annabelle were busy making pancakes together.

"I've heard from Bee that you'll come along today?", asked Hide curiously.

"Yeah. They found something fishy in Chernobyl and want my opinion. I've heard Optimus is quite pissed about it?", huffed Sam irritated.

He had told the truth about the knowledge still trapped inside his head a couple of days after he moved in with the Lennox family. Autobots rejoiced, Sam had even created the first sparkling some weeks prior. But humans... they thought they could use his knowledge to their advantage. The replacement of Galloway was the worst. That woman had hoped to gain the weaponry science of Cybertron. She quit that idea ever since Ironhide, Optimus and the other Bots made it very clear that they would rather tear the base down than let them experiment with their most treasured human.

"He is. It's the Ark. They knew where the Ark was but never said anything", growled Hide.

There was no need to explain what the Ark was, his mates knew it all too well. Sam hummed sadly, shaking his head knowingly. His lovers eyed him suspiciously.

"There is something you know and don't tell", stated Will.

"The Ark is dead. It's inhabitants died when it crashed into the moon, all the sparks within it had went out, the death, the mourning cries of their sparks going out, their helplessness..."

Green hazel eyes glittered with unshed tears. The mech stood and wrapped his arms around his young mate, hugging him tightly. The knowledge of the AllSpark was so great, so overwhelming, sometimes it was too much for his fragile, human mate.

"I'm so sorry, so sorry. I wish I could take this burden from you", whispered Hide.

"It's just... so much... Too much... The images and feelings and the lives ending..."

"That won't please Optimus", sighed Will. "I had been there with him. He was so angry. I've never seen him that way. I fear this won't end good."

"Why have you been to Chernobyl? Radiation? You are not allowed near anything that is possible hazardous! Didn't I make that clear?", chided Sam with wide eyes.

"Mommy's right! Daddy's not allowed to do things that are really, really dangerous", agreed the girl.

"It wasn't hazardous, we knew what we did and we didn't stay too long", defended Will himself.

"Oh yeah? You better watch it, mister, or else you're so sleeping on the couch!", warned Sam.

"Scary little mate we got there", chuckled Hide and ruffled Sam's hair.

"Don't provoke me or you'll sleep on the couch, too!"

"Seems you have a bad day today, Sammy", smiled Will and kissed the boy softly.

"We should be going anyway, Morshower said it's important", mumbled Sam.

He really wasn't having a good day, but he didn't need to tell his mates. They would only worry over nothing. He kept having those nightmares about the moon and Decepticons and Megatron, but they didn't make any sense by now. Maybe once they do, then he'll tell them, but not now...

"Got my schoolbag! We can get going!", smiled Annabelle and ushered her parents out.

They drove in silence until they dropped Annabelle off at her school.

"So, tell me. What kind of information will I have to look into?", asked Sam.

"It's from Leo. He got it from a co-worker right before the man got killed by a Decepticon. He and Mikaela came over right after that. It's kind of strange, though. It all settles around the dark side of the moon, about the Ark. Ratchet and Optimus had left this morning to go and look into it more thoroughly. I suppose they want what you have on information about the Ark."

"Leo and Kaela are over? I haven't seen them since they moved to DC and Kaela got that job from this Dylan what's-his-name guy!", smiled the brunette.

He hadn't seen his two friends since they moved away from Cybertron City, in need to see the world. Mikaela got a job at DC, doing what she always wanted to do. Working with cars. Her boss though seemed to be quite the prick after all that Leo had told him over the phone.

"I doubt they'll be still at the base right now, but they tried to argue with Mearing about helping. She won't listen to them, of course. She never does. So they left again", answered Will.

"Naw, knowing Keala she won't give up. We'll see them again, that's for sure."

They soon arrived at the hanger, just in time with a certain yellow camaro.

"Hah, what did I tell you? I knew they won't give up", smirked Sam.

"Sam!", screamed Mikaela, waving wildly once the humans had exited the alt-modes.

"Samuel, so we meet again!", grunted Simmons.

"What are you doing here?", asked the boy confused, being hugged tightly by the pretty girl.

Leo and Bee's holo-form stood there, grinning broadly at them. Hide and Will stayed near their mate, not trusting the situation. Something must have been off if they came in a package of four.

"Leo contacted me after the government let them down, we searched together, contacted some Russian spacemen and gathering information", answered the ex-Sector-7-agent.

"And what we found! The bridge, they want it, there were hundreds of parts of it and Megatron got them, they surely want the rest of it, too! You have to tell Optimus, Sentinel is in danger!", explained Leo in a rush.

Ratchet, Optimus and Sentinel exited the hanger right then and Sam's eyes widened in realization. Will and Hide knew that look, their mate only got it when one of his visions started making sense.

"Optimus! Ratchet! Hide! Get away from him!", screamed the boy frantically.

He turned away from his ex-girlfriend, breaking into a sprint. The Autobots turned to him in wonder, Will who talked with Epps and some other soldiers did so too.

"He's not the target, he's the enemy!", screamed Sam desperately. "Get down! He's dangerous!"

"What are you talking about, Sam?", asked Optimus confused.

Hide knew better than to question his young lover, he shoved both Ratchet and Optimus out of the way, locking eyes with Bee who got the civilian humans to safety fast.

"He betrayed you, I saw it, the AllSpark saw it, felt it's spark breaking at the betrayal of one of his own! He's betraying you, he works for Megatron!"

"So you are the container of the AllSpark. You indeed have it's knowledge", grunted Sentinel.

"Why would he betray us?", asked Optimus with sad optics.

"The war was lost, the only option he saw was turning to the enemy, making a deal with Megatron."

"Indeed, little human. And you won't stand in my way", hissed Sentinel, drawing his weapon.

He started shooting, a fight broke loose and all was left a blurry haste. The older Prime nearly got Ironhide, but Sam, running as fast as he could, send a blue light blast at the enemy. Pure spark-energy, too strong for his weak human body, leaving him unconscious.

Sentinel fled, though Hide didn't see anything aside from his lifeless looking mate. In one swift movement he changed into his alt-form, driving to him as fast as he could while Will took Sam into his arms, lifting him and getting into the Topkick once it stood in front of him.

"What did you do, Sammy? What was that? What's wrong? Why the fuck won't you tell us anything? You know we hate secrets!", hissed Will frantically.

Hide contacted Ratchet over their intercom-link, telling him to meet at the med bay. Of course they arrived first, laying Sam down on one of the berths. Shortly after them came Ratchet, closely followed by Bumblebee.

"Ratchet! What's wrong with him?", asked Hide wide-eyed, his holo-form holding Will in a semi-comforting manner.

"I can only guess. It must have been the power of the AllSpark. Oh that stupid boy, I told him not to use it in his condition! But does he ever listen to me? Does anyone ever listen to me?", ranted Ratchet, scanning Sam on different levels and roaming around the med bay.

"What does that mean? His condition? Is something wrong with Sam? Something you two didn't tell us?", asked Bee, growling dangerously, glaring at Will and Hide.

"No! No, I don't know what he's talking about either! Do you, Will?"

"He didn't say anything, but he scarcely does when it comes to the AllSpark..."

Ratchet's movement stopped, he turned around slowly, facing the two Autobots and the four humans that all looked at him in wonder, demanding answers.

"He didn't tell you... I told him. He said he would tell you! But he didn't...", mumbled the medic.

"What? He didn't tell us, what, exactly? Ratchet, speak, or I swear to you your beloved wretch will go somewhere you never wanted it to go!", warned Hide on edge.

"After he told us about the powers he consumed from the AllSpark, I got him checked thoroughly. It turned out the AllSpark granted him far more than just it's wisdom. Sam is... he's with sparkling..."

"What does with sparkling mean?", asked Leo confused. "I mean, we all know he got a spark that keeps him alive, so no big news, right?"

"Darling, I think it's more a phrase like 'with child'", corrected Mikaela.

"You kidding, Keala! She is kidding, right?"

"He's... pregnant...", whispered Will, pupils wide, a wild look on his face.

His right hand found it's way to Sam's abdomen. Of course he had noticed that his younger mate had gained some weight, but he hadn't thought much of it! After his and Hide's first talk about it on their first night with Sam he had kind of dismissed the idea, Sam never showed any symptoms of pregnancy. Or maybe the boy was just too good at hiding it! Damn.

"Oh, I swear I'll kill him!", hissed the major. "When will he finally learn that secrets are not good?"

"Why... Why didn't he tell us...?", whispered Hide, his voice sounding strangely broken.

"He was scared", explained Ratchet while working frankly on Sam. "He thinks very little of himself, as you have surely already noticed. The fact that he's not entirely human anymore freaked him out a great deal and the way some of the humans on the base reacted to it wasn't helping any. Discovering he was pregnant send him into a crazed rambling at first. He thinks he became more of an abnormality than he already was. He was afraid of loosing you. I don't know where this foolish notion came from, but I made him promise to tell you. He obviously lied to me."

Silence fell between them for the remains of the examination.

"I'm finished. He'll be fine", promised Ratchet.

"And our...?", asked Will anxiously.

"Everything is fine, no need to worry", smiled the medic. He then turned to the other four inhabitants of the med bay. "We should get going. Optimus can use some help. And you lot, didn't you have some urgent information? Leave them alone, hush."

Hide transformed and picked his two mates up into his hands, rubbing one digit slowly over the slightly bulged stomach of the brunette. The boy stirred with a groan.

"Sammy! Are you alright?", asked Will worried.

"Peachy", moaned Sam and rubbed his eyes with one hand.

The boy blinked a few times confused as if trying to remember what had happened. Once realization dawned on him, he laid his hands protectively around his midsection in wonder.

"It's alright, don't worry, love. Ratchet said everything is alright", soothed Will, his hands laying on the slightly round stomach, too, rubbing it a bit.

Wonder vanished, being replaced by shock and something akin to panic.

"You... He told you, didn't he?", voiced the boy with a scared sub-tone.

"He did. He told us what you should have told us", growled Hide with suppressed anger.

Sam flinched at that and closed his eyes tightly. Will scowled up at the mech and hugged the brunette against his chest, feeling the boy stiffen in his hold.

"Why didn't you tell us, Sammy?", whispered the major.

"Because I'm enough of a freak as it is... And now?", mumbled Sam in broken sobs.

Hide's holo-form flickered to life next to them, taking a quick step to his mates and hugging them both close, stroking Sam's hair casually.

"Why won't you listen to a word I'm saying, love?", sighed Hide desperately. "You are not a freak, you're perfect the way you are. And a sparkling is nothing you should feel the need to hide from us. It's our child, Sammy. Cybertronians hadn't had the chance to create new life since the AllSpark got lost. I've always wanted a sparkling, of course Annabelle will always be like my own sparkling to me, but an own sparkling... Sammy you don't know how happy you make me. You're carrying my sparkling, love. There is nothing more wonderful than that."

"Sparklings...", whispered Sam.

"What was that?", asked Will confused.

"It's two of them, twins", mumbled the brunette, looking uncertain at them.

"Really, Samuel. Why on Earth didn't you tell us you're pregnant? I mean, you didn't seriously think we'd leave you, did you? What were you planning on doing? We would have noticed sooner or later! Or were you planning on... ending the pregnancy...?"

"What? No! I couldn't! I just... needed time to figure stuff out and... how I tell you... But I wouldn't kill my own children!", said Sam with determination.

"Good, that's... good", smiled Hide, his hands pulling the shirt up and caressing the tender stomach.

"Yeah, means you want the kids, right?", agreed Will with a smile, bending down to kiss the bulge.

"I... yeah, of course... They are ours, after all. Yours... and mine... Family..."

"That's right", hummed Hide. "How about we get back home? I'm sure they can work on this without us for a while."

The holo-form flickered, Ironhide changed back into his alt-form, Sam and Will seated securely inside of it. The black Topkick rushed out of the med bay, not stopping to answer any silly question, only giving his intentions away over the intercom-link. Before they drove home, they stopped at the school, declaring it closed for the time being, sending all children home where they should stay with their mothers or fathers until everything was cleared again.

"Does that mean I have holidays now?", asked Annabelle curiously.

"Yeah, princess", chuckled Sam, cuddling the little angel on the backseat.

"You're going to stay at home with mommy", declared Hide, finality evident in his voice.

Sam raised an eyebrow, but he waited until they arrived home and the girl hurried up into her room before he confronted his mates.

"What do you mean she's staying at home with me?"

"What did it sound like? You and Annabelle are not leaving this house until whatever danger it is this time ended!", grunted the mech irritated.

"Contrary to your believes, I am in fact not a housewife! I've helped rescuing the world the last two times! And damn I won't miss it this time! Who knows if you'll even manage without me!"

"Ironhide is right, Sam. You're staying at home. No discussion."

"What? I'm not...! Don't you dare command me around like I'm one of your soldiers! I'm making my own decisions!", hissed Sam angrily.

"Right. Those decisions, they got you killed in Egypt and risked your life and the lives of our sparklings just an hour ago!", growled Ironhide, blocking the door effectively.

"You don't just have to watch out for yourself now, you have to think of our children, Sammy. Do you really want to risk their lives? We are soldiers, we can take care for ourselves. But they, they are at the mercy of your decisions. And you tend to risk your own life to help those you love."

Sam sighed heavily and took a step back, nodding his head slowly.

"You're... right... But I... I can't leave it up to you! I can't just sit by, not knowing what you're doing, if you're safe!", sobbed the brunette desperately.

"We will be safe. You have to trust us on this", whispered Hide, kissing the boy tenderly.

"I know... I just... I love you and I don't want to loose you!"

"You won't loose us, Sammy", promised Will.

It was a silly promise to make and they all knew it, but it helped nonetheless. They hugged, Sam sandwiched between them, breathing in the scents of each other.

"Is everything alright?", asked Annabelle with a small voice.

They opened their embrace to include their daughter, the girl complied hurriedly.

"Yeah, daddy and poppa have to leave for a while to do something very important. But grandma and grandpa are staying with us and we can play monopoly all day long and watch movies, how does that sound, sweetheart?"

"Sounds like there is something you're not telling me", concluded Annabelle.

She really was a clever child. Whenever momma spoiled her there was something probably dangerous they weren't telling her. And normally, whenever school was closed because of Decepticons, she would just stay at her grandparents because her mommy would leave with her fathers. They always did such things together, even though Sammy was not a soldier.

"Your mommy needs to stay here, too", smiled Hide.

The adults exchanged glances and decided in silence what to do next.

"You always wanted younger siblings, darling, right?", started Will.

"Yeah, but you said I won't get any", pouted Annabelle confused.

"Well, turns out you will become a big sister soon", said Sam, looking into her eyes.

"Really? Really, really?", gaped the blonde with wide eyes, her little hands finding their way to Sam's stomach, remembering how their neighbors had become parents a few months ago and the baby was inside the mom's belly. "Is there a brother or a sister inside of you? And when will you let them out? I want to play with my new sibling soon!"

Hide and Will shook their heads and laughed at her enthusiasm.

"You'll have to wait half a year longer, princess, sorry. But you'll get both, a brother and a sister."

"You already know the genders?", asked Will astonished.

"I... Yeah, Ratch found them out on the ultrasound a week ago...", confessed Sam.

"A son and a daughter? Something else you didn't tell us?", huffed Hide irritated.

"No, no, that's about it", answered the brunette honestly. "Oh, yeah. They're like me."

"What's that supposed to mean?", questioned the major.

"Humans with sparks, the body of a human, but the mind capacity and the spark of a Cybertronian."

"Awesome!", giggled Annabelle joyfully.

"Yeah, it will be fun telling your grandparents", laughed Sam.

Hide and Will gave agonized groans at that. Ronald was so going to rip them apart for impregnating his only son! Dear lord, they won't live through that! They started moving around, getting stuff that could be important for the soon-to-be-mission, looking if everything was stoked for at least a few days, making sure the windows were locked and the bunker was fine, just in case.

"Can you get the guestroom ready for my parents, Will?", asked Sam, using his puppy-eyes.

"Of course, love", smiled Will with a nod.

Sam nodded, still on the phone, waiting for his mother to finally pick up the damn phone.

"Hello, Witwicky household?", was the first his mom said.

"Mom! Good, you're home, good. Go, pack your stuff up, say, for a few days, no, make it a week, just to be sure. Grab Mojo and Frankie and don't forget dad! Get over here soon, you'll be staying with Annabelle and me for a few."

"What? What's wrong? It's not Megatron again, is it?", sighed his mom.

"Yes, I believe it is. And I want you near me, keep you safe, okay? Just come over, please."

"We'll be there in a moment, Sam", promised Judy.

"Your parents coming, love?", asked Ironhide concerned.

"Knowing my mom, they'll be here before you've finished the guestroom", smiled Sam.

"Well, then they should better hurry, because I'm nearly fin-", started the major, just to be interrupted by the doorbell.

"Told you so", grinned the brunette cheekily. "Princess, could you get the door?"

"Sure, mommy!", answered Annabelle with a nod, running to the door.

"Hello, sweetheart! Are your fathers still here? Where are my boys?", chimed Judy.

"Living room, mom", announced Sam.

Mojo and Frankie came first, running up to Ironhide to annoy the mech. These three always had a rather difficult relationship. Hide still insisted the Witwickys should let him take care of their rodent problem. The Autobot grimaced at the sight of the two 'rats'.

"Mom, dad, it's nice having you around", smiled Will, embracing his in-laws.

Judy had rather quickly insisted on being called mom and Ron had no say in the matter. Hide went past them, greeting Judy with a quick kiss on the cheek and took the luggage from his father-in-law. Ron nodded gratefully at the mech and lifted his granddaughter for a quick spin.

"How's my first lady doing?", asked the elderly man with a fond smile.

"Great! I'm going to be a sister! Mommy's pregnant and I'll get a baby brother and a baby sister!"

"Deary, you got something wrong there, men don't get pregnant", explained the man patiently.

"Well, actually... She's right", clarified Sam with a shrug. "You're going to be grandparents. That's the reason I'm staying behind on this."

Ron had, once again, a heart-attack-esque look on his face, mouth hanging open, gaping at his son and his sons-in-law, all shades of confusion written all over his face.

"You two... You two... You made him... you made my... my only son... You knocked my only son up. My only child! Because alien robots weren't enough, now even defying the laws of nature! Good lord, you lot will be the death of me!", huffed the man.

"Dad, don't throw a fit, please!", pleaded the brunette with a cross lock, fiddling with his hands.

Hide detected the high stress-level of his young mate, he hurried to the boy and laid his arms soothingly around the brunette, massaging his hipbones to calm him. The weapon specialist didn't know much about pregnancies, but he knew that stress was never a good thing for a baby.

"Calm down, love", whispered the mech.

Judy walked up to the pair and came to a halt in front of her only child.

"Oh, sweetheart, what is wrong with you?", asked Judy worried, grabbing his head, looking her son up and down, stopping at his bulged stomach. "Is it... really true? Is it okay? Are you okay?"

"I've had a freakout when I found out about it, but I'm... yeah, I'm fine, I'm happy. Going to have children of my own... Oh! Got the ultrasound-pictures! You want to see them?"

Glee danced in his eyes as he hurried up the stairs, soon returning with black-white-images in his hands. He ran into the living room and laid the pictures on the table. A proud grin adored his face as he looked at his family. The Witwickys and the Lennoxs came to him, standing behind him and looking down at the pictures in awe.

"There! That's the little girl and the other, there, that's the boy!", explained Sam proudly.

The four adults stood at the table in pure amazement. Looking at their children and grandchildren respectively.

Annabelle was eager to see her new siblings, even though she couldn't make out very much on the photos. She clapped her hands and thought of all the things she would teach them.

Will and Hide were amazed, overwhelmed by the sheer thought of it. Their children, their own flesh and blood and sparks, growing inside their mate. They stood behind Sam, either of them slung one arm around the boy's waist and they linked their fingers over the round stomach.

And Ron and Judy? They were stunned silent. Ron gaped, opening and closing his mouth like a fish at the shore. He had settled with Annabelle as only grandchild he'll ever get and even though she was not his own flesh and blood, she was such a bright and happy child and he loved her like she was his own. He never told Sam, of course, not wanting the boy to feel bad about his decisions in life, but Ron had always wished for many grandchildren.

"They are beautiful, my deary", smiled Judy contently.
