Author's note: This chapter was written by me =D

"Hello" Autobot talking.

I looked at him and he was having the last bit of his energon, he looked fine. But that could be a front, I mean if I hid my true feelings for as long as 'Hide did. Primus knows what I'd be like, I worried to think.

'Hide looked at me, frag he must have felt my worry.

Ironhide's POV
I felt Sire's worry and looked at him "You alright?" I asked.

Sire nodded, clearly hiding something "I'm fine 'Hide" he assured.

Now if there was one thing I knew about Sire, he was a terrible liar when trying to hide the fact that he wasn't fine and that something was bothering him.

Trojan's POV
By the look on 'Hide's face, he didn't believe me. Hell I'll admit I'm a terrible liar when it comes to assuring nothing was wrong when something clearly was. I sighed and told him my worry about him hiding his deeper emotions.

Ironhide's POV
I never realised Sire felt like that, why didn't he tell me sooner? Then again he probably feared my reaction, to be honest I'm not mad at him for showing his worry for me. Hell every parent-or Creator in our terms-worries about their kids, I know how Sire feels in that department. I understood why Sire never told me, like Jade wouldn't tell me if something was wrong with her I smiled "Sire I can understand your worry but I'm fine, I mean now you and 'Steel are back I'm coming out my shell more" I assured.

Sire smiled a little "I know, and I'm glad" he replied then sighed "but...all that time you hid your true emotions when you were a 'Con, it couldn't have been healthy for ya"

I nodded, it wasn't healthy for me. And Sire wasn't the only one who could see the effects, Jade had seen them as well as 'Steel and Ratch. And at a stretch Optimus as we've been friends for so long, I suffer with Spark aches because I hid my true emotions for so long. It didn't do anything bad to my Spark, it just ached every now and then...I haven't really mentioned it to anyone. And well, I didn't want to tell anyone about that. I didn't want anyone to treat me any different or feel sorry for me every time they see me, I looked down at Jade who shifted a little in her sleep. Jade and I shared a deeper understanding compared to the rest of my family, we have been through depression and hid our true feelings from other people. And we also have been through terrifying experiences. I began to see Jade was having another nightmare. Primus these nightmares we really affecting her, I gently shook her awake.

Trojan's POV
I saw 'Hide wake Jade up, she must be having another nightmare. I decided to let them have their privacy "I'll see ya later 'Hide" I said softly and got up.

Ironhide's POV
I smiled a little and he walked inside, I gently shook my daughter awake again.

Jade's POV
I woke up in a cold sweat, I felt like my Spark was going to leap right out my chest.

"Jade" I heard a soft voice say making me jump, I looked up and relaxed a little when I saw dad. I must have fallen asleep in his hand, I sat up and crossed my legs. I was trying to hide my fear but wasn't working, I looked down and shivered.

Ironhide's POV
Jesus that one really scared her, I've got help her out. I sent her love comfort and reassurance through the bond, I wanted her to feel that she could talk to me about her dreams. I'll admit I used to have nightmares about 'Steel's death, but I don't anymore. The point is I didn't mention my dreams to anyone when I was a 'Con, so I was basically suffering in silence. I didn't want Jade to suffer in silence, I wanted her to open up to me. Which was easier said than done, Jade is more like a brick wall and will hardly tell her problems to anyone. And if she did then she would be brief, which can't be good for her. I felt a pain in her Spark from the bond and it was like a very tight pain as well. Now I knew what that was, a Spark attack. I've never had one, but I know when someone is having one. Primus that dream really scared her, she was on the verge of a Spark attack. I had to calm her down or she'll have a Spark attack. I thought of singing to her, that should relax her to slow her Spark rate down. Now I knew she loved the song Iridescent by Linkin Park, and I loved Lullaby by Nickelback. I decided to go for the Iridescent song as that should calm her down more than Lullaby. So I started to sing it.

Jade's POV
I could hear dad start singing Iridescent by Linkin Park, it was one of my favourite songs. I felt my Spark beat calm down a little.

Soon it went down to normal and I smiled a fraction at dad.

Ironhide's POV
I felt Jade's Spark calm right down and I smiled, I'll have to note that down somewhere 'sing to Jade to prevent a Spark attack'.

Jade's POV
When dad finished singing I smiled, I saw his kind optics and he smiled back at me.
