A/N Sorry for not updating last week I was very busy working. Thank you all for the reviews/alerts/ favorites.

One month later

A lot has happened in the last month; my house was finally finished, my old company rehired me, Monica got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, and Amy got a job in Europe. The Autobots managed to capture Scorponok, who how it turned out was responsible for destroying my house with him out of the way I was finally able to return to my home to my delight. I was in my living room unpacking things that I bought when I received the text message; I grabbed the phone and swiped the screen to view the message. The message was from Sarah Lennox, Will's wife.

"Dinner at my house tonight at 7 o'clock; just us girls," the message said.

How did she manage to get my cell phone number? I thought to myself as I replied to her message. Probably Ironhide gave her I thought. I have not seen Sarah or Will since the day Ironhide and I started to date.

I arrived at the Lennox residence at precisely seven o'clock. Stepping onto the porch, I knocked on the front door; a few seconds later Sarah opened the door.

"You are here," Sarah said happily, as she hugged me. "Please come in," she said, moving aside so I could get in.

"Uncle 'Hide, uncle 'Hide…!" Annabelle hollered happily as she ran toward the front door, but seeing that Ironhide wasn't there she stopped and turned to her mother.

"Mommy, where's uncle 'Hide?" Annabelle asked, looking at her mother.

"Uncle 'Hide will come next time; mommy wanted to talk to his girlfriend," Sarah gently said putting her hand on Annabelle's head.

"Oh" Annabelle said, disappointedly lowering her head.

"Annabelle sweetie, aren't you going to say hello to Sandra?" Sarah asked her.

Annabelle raised her head and looked at me.

"Hello," she said, shyly waving her hand at me.

"Hi Annabelle," I said, smiling to her.

"Come, Monique is waiting us in the living room," Sarah said, as she began to walk toward the living room. As Sarah and I entered the living room, I saw Monique sitting on the couch and rubbing her belly; she was pregnant.

"Hey Sandra…. "Monique began as she struggled to get up from the couch.

"Please don't get up," I said, as I walked up to her; I bent down and hugged her.

"How are you?" she asked me.

"I'm fine, thank you," I said. "And you?" I asked.

Monique smiled and pointed to her belly.

"I see," I said with a chuckle.

"Come sit next to me," Monique said, grabbing my hand and pulling me to the couch next to her while Sarah sat on the chair.

"Where's Will?" I asked.

"He took Theodor outside; he will come later."

I nodded. Then I turned to Monique.

"How….?" I began, but Monique cut me off.

"Six months," she said reading my mind." I'm carrying twins."

"Congratulations," I said.

"Thank you," she said. "So how is your and Ironhide's relationship going?"

"Good," I replied.

Monique nodded.

"Tell me, is it true?"

"Is… . it… what… true?" I asked confused.

"You know… " Monique started, "That they are animals in bed."

"Monique…" Sarah said looking at her friend.

"What?!" she asked innocently.

"That's between Ironhide and Sandra."

"Pfft please," Monique said, waving her hand. "You too want to know; the only difference is that I have the courage to ask her."

"Still, it's rude to ask."

"Fine," Monique said, throwing her arms in the air. "You don't have to answer that," she said, to me. "But if you want…."

"She doesn't," Sarah quickly said, shaking her head in disbelief. "Please forgive her, she is pregnant."

"It's alright" I said smiling.

I could feel my cheeks getting red.

"Let's all go down to the dining room," Sarah said. "Dinner will be ready soon."

Sarah and I helped Monique to get up from the couch and the three of us, headed to the dining room where Sarah had already set the table.

"Please sit," Sarah said to me as she helped Monique sit down.

I pulled the chair out and sat across Monique.

The oven beeped, signaling Sarah that her lasagna was done baking in the oven. She went to the kitchen and took the lasagna out of the oven and brought it to the dining room.

"I hope you like lasagna," Sarah said as she set down the lasagna on the table.

I was about to answer when all of a sudden a smell of lasagna with béchamel and bolognese sauce filled my nostrils. I immediately felt dizzy and nauseous.

"Are you alright?" Sarah asked me with the concern look on her face.

"Can I get a glass of water?" I asked breathing heavily.

"Of course," she replied, and went to the kitchen to bring me water; she came back a minute later with a glass of ice cold water and gave it to me. I took the glass and took a few sips.

"Better?" She asked.

"Yeah, thank you" I said.

"Can I ask you something?" Monique suddenly said.

"Yes."

"When was your last period?"

"Monique you don't think… " Sarah began.

"A month and a half ago," I said. "But I'm not pregnant; I did a pregnancy test and it was negative," I quickly said.

"Maybe, Cybertronian pregnancy is different; you should go and see Ratchet just in case," Sarah said.

Suddenly Ratchet's voice echoed in my head.

"As you know our holoform can't produce CNA when overload ergo it is the safest way to mate because you can't get pregnant, but if you chose the other option I recommend withdrawal, because birth control don't affect us and you'll get pregnant."

"Sandra promise me you will go and see Ratchet tomorrow," Sarah's voice winced me from my thoughts.

"I will."

The next day

As I walked to the med bay a million different emotions and thoughts were running through my head. One part of me wished that I was pregnant, but the other part was scared to death. Finally, I stopped at the door of the med bay; I raised my hand to knock on the door.

Maybe Ratchet is busy I thought. I'll come back another time. I quickly turned around but unfortunately as I did that I tripped over Ratchet's foot.

Damn, I thought. So close.

"Miss. Jones you wanted to see me?" he asked, looking down at me.

"Well, yes but if you are busy I will come back another time," I said.

"I have some free time," Ratchet said. "Please come in," he said, opening the big door.

"Really Ratchet I will understand if you want to have free time for yourself," I said.

"Nonsense I always have time for my patients," he replied as he gently pushed me inside the med bay with his foot. Once inside, he activated his holoform.

"Now how can I help you?" he asked.

"Well….um…."

"What's that sound?" he suddenly said, turning around.

"What sound? I can't hear anything."

"It sounds like a pulse and its coming from you," he said, as his holoform disappeared.

I turned my head and saw Ratchet standing a few feet away from me.

"Don't move" he ordered as he began to scan me. After one minute Ratchet finished scanning me.

"Ratchet?!" I said.

He raised his helm and looked at me smiling.

"Congratulations, you are carrying a sparkling" he said.

A loud bang was heard and Ratchet and I immediately turned our heads toward the sound just to see Ironhide lying on the floor; not moving.

"Ratchet…. " I began.

"Don't worry; Ironhide is alright," he said, with a chuckle.

"What's wrong with him?"

"On human language, he fainted."
