Christmas

Morning at 3 o'clock

Ironhide's POV

"Daddy?" Then I was being shaken.

"Hmmm?"

"Wake up! Wake up! It snowed and Santa came again!" Then flopped on.

"Go back to sleep sweet spark,"

"I can't Daddy, Santa came! So wake up!" Then another shake.

"Sweet spark it's 3 in the morning go back to bed,"

"No! I want to open my presents!" Then a hand going through my hair.

"No"

"But Daddy! Please?" Shadow pleads.

"Sweetie? What are you doing up?" Chromia whispers waking up, "I want to open my presents!" Shadow whines, "Honey just- here lay with me and Daddy for a while," Chromia says lifting the blankets between us and lets Shadow crawl under the blankets, "Am I cold Daddy?" She hums teasingly when my optics widen when her cold frame cuddles up to my much warmer one.

"Yes," I grunt holding her in my arms, "Now go to sleep," I murmur against her hair, "M'kay," she whispers gently before falling into recharge.

Moments Later

"WAKEY WAKEY MOMMY AND DADDY!! It's 9 A.M.! I let you both sleep long enough!" Shadow screams before me and Chromia groan when she lays on us, well flops, "Wakey wakey! I and Sides made pancakes!" Shadow sings getting up then drags the blankets off of us, "Come on wake up!" Shadow says while I and Chromia cuddle up to one another for warmth, "Shadow go back to sleep," Chromia whines laying her helm on my chest, "Wake up Chromia and Ironhide! It's Christmas!" Sideswipe orders I could hear the smile in his tone, "Don't make me flop on ya!" Shadow says her southern accent kicking in.

So adorable!!

"Mommy!" Shadow whines "Daddy, I want to know what I got!" I and Chromia sit up, "Alright we're up," Chromia says rubbing her optics along with myself, "Yippee!!" Shadow cheers jumping with glee, "Let's go downstairs! The pancakes are probably gone because of Crosshairs!" Sideswipe says then Shadow grabs mine and Chromia's servos pulling us off the bed, "I love you Ironhide," Chromia whispers kissing me softly, "Gross!" Shadow yelps when I and Chromia kiss in front of her, "Nasty! Mommy, Daddy has Daddy coodies!" Shadow whines, "Then come here I'll give you a lot of kisses!" I say then grab for my sparkling making Shadow squeal and jump running away, "Don't worry Shadow when Daddy catches you he's going to kiss you all over your cheek!" Chromia calls after our running sparkling, "No! Help me, Siders!" Shadow yelps while I chase her, I stop and chuckle making Shadow stick her glossa out at me and then run downstairs.

I felt arms around my chassis, "Let's go back to bed," Chromia whispers making me pick her up bridal style making Chromia scream with a laugh "Ironhide I swear to Primus if you drop me you're in big trouble!" Chromia promises and makes me smirk while I walked down the stairs.

I hear all of them giggling or grunting, "Sides no! I don't want you to hug me! Daddy!" Shadow calls "Nope kisses before pancakes!" Sideswipe says I could hear his cheeky smile, "I would rather kiss that pancake than you!" "Fine then," I hear bursts of laughter, I walk into the dining room only to snort with amusement while Shadow has a pancake stuck on her cheek, she's sitting there giggling, "That was mean!" She says making amusement flow through mine and Chromia's bond making my spark thrum in pain when it sees Shadow isn't apart of our bond. I can only wince and act as nothing happened.

Shadow's POV

I felt bad seeing Daddy wince, I didn't like to see him in pain! It was terrible! It was Spark breaking!

I felt someone remove the pancake from my cheek I look up and see Bee with his adorable smile, "Pancake fight!" Sideswipe yells then throws a pancake at Sunny making us all laugh before everyone started throwing pancakes, Arcee and Bee were on a team, I and Sides had to avoid Sunny because he wanted revenge on Sides and myself because I threw sausage at him.

After the pancake fight was over we all got cleaned up and settled down in the living room, "Alright are you ready?" Chromia asks while she and Daddy handed me my first present, "To Shadow from Santa with the help of Bee" I read, I smile at Bee before opening my present I gasp then squeak seeing my very own...... EK AN CAMO HP LAPTOP?!

I squeak then get up and throw my arms around Bee, "Thank you thank you!" I say over and over again, "Your welcome," Bee says and kisses my cheek making me return the kiss, I give Mommy the present so I didn't lose it, "Alright the next one oh it's from Santa with the help of Jazz" Mommy says and hands me the present, I open the present and squeal seeing Five Finger Death Punch CDs! All of their CDs were out!

"Thanks, Santa and Jazzy!" I say hugging Jazz tightly since he told me Santa helped him, "Your welcome Lil lady," he says and kisses my cheek making me kiss his cheek, I give Mommy the CDs only for Daddy to take them, "Cool," Daddy grunts looking at the titles of the songs and the covers, "You're going to love Five Finger Death Punch!" I squeak making Daddy nod.

I open my next present it's from Crosshairs, "To Gorgeous From Santa with the help of Crosshairs and Drift" I say reading the tag with an embarrassed blush making Crosshairs smirk, I open it only to squeak seeing a new Mossy Oak Camo Jacket just like I asked for! Oh and a Camo blanket.

"Open that one last," Sideswipe says when I grab for the biggest present, "Here open this one!" Sunny says handing me the next one, I open it and gasp with a smile seeing an RC Yellow Lamborghini CAR?! OH MY PRIMUS!

I squeal and hug Sunny tightly making him grunt, "Thanks SunStreaker! I love it! I love it!" I say then plant a wet kiss to his cheek making him tense while I hugged the life out of him, "Lucky," Crosshairs grunts crossing his arms, "Alright now my turn Santa helped out big time with this one" Sideswipe says after I opened other presents, I squirm on the floor while he hands me the biggest present, he hands it to me gently, "Alright open!" Sideswipe says with a smile, I open it....

Oh

My

Primus......

A HUGE NERF GUN?! WITH BIG BULLETS?! EEEEEEEKKKKKKKK!!

I scream in happiness, I started to jump around like a mad femme then I giggle and jumped in Sideswipe's lap giving him a big wet kiss on the lips, I pull back and hug him tightly, "Thank you, Siders, and when you see Santa tell him I was lying about the milk and cookies! Thank you! Thank you! I love you all so much!" I squeal, "I would do anything for our future girlfriend," Sideswipe says with a cheesy smile making me kiss his cheek, "Don't get all lovey with Sides, Mommy and Daddy still has a gift that we had Santa's help with," Mommy says, "What?" I ask making Mommy chuckle at all of our confused faces, "Oh yes I remember now," Daddy says, "What?" Crosshairs say looking at Jazz who shrugs, "Come on, it's outside in the shed!" Daddy says while they all fizzled clothes on, I frown and run up the stairs and got dressed into something warm.

I walk down the stairs in my snow boots and see that Mommy and the others are gone, I shrug and walk outside I shield my eyes from the sun and see footsteps in the snow, I stare at a piece of paper taped to our door:

Shadow

I look at the letter with confusion shrugging I take it off the door and read:

We have the biggest present for you in the shed! Have fun! We'll be back, went to town! Don't get hurt! Be back at Ten!

Love

Mom and Dad along with the others

P.S. We left because of the electric company soundly shut up and leave us alone so we're going to go talk to them

-Dad

Did they ditch me on Christmas? Stupid electric company!

I frown but shrug off the frown and run to the shed, I open the door and gasp seeing a brand spanking new Polaris! It has a shiny red bow on the hood while the keys hung on the rearview mirror.

"Oh heck yeah!" I scream.

'Oh Primus no! Shadow! Please! I value your safety just as much as I do my own! You're too young! Please? Don't drive it for me?' Ratchet persuades but I frown and whimper, I turn around only to get locked in the shed because of the wind, I am in BIG trouble.

The dark shed was so small and cold, you see Daddy just HAD to HAVE the shed get locked when the door is closed. I pound on the door praying that someone would hear me but no one did, I shivered and curled up in the corner, I check the time on my watch it was only 4 o'clock in the afternoon, already?! How long did it take to open presents?!

'Correction, it took an hour to wake everyone up and another hour to open presents,' Ratchet corrects.

Whoa he's smart

'Indeed' Ratchet grunts.

"How long are we going to be in here?" I whimper holding my stomach shivering, 'Only six hours! Even more, if they don't look for you' "NO NEGATIVE THOUGHTS RATCHET!" I yell only to wince when it got loud in the shed, 'Sorry my dear sparkling, I shall put it in another way, we are going to freeze if no one finds us' "Smart aft!" I grumble, "Come on Ratchet I need some positive thoughts, not the probable truth," I mumble, 'My dear sparkling you can not die, the only way you would die is that if some mech took out your spark but not before Ironhide or one of the others took out his!' Ratchet laughs making me chuckle.

Hours Later

"I'm gonna show you crazy~ crazy~ loco, maniac, sick glitch, psychopath~" I sing softly to myself holding my body tighter while it got colder, it was finally 10 o'clock AT NIGHT!

I lay my head down only to perk it up hearing a high engine, I stand to my feet, "SIDESWIPE! SUNSTREAKER! HELP! SOMEONE!" I scream pounding on the door, "Whoa Sunny you hear that?" I hear Sideswipe ask, "SUNNY!! SIDES!! HELP!! PLEASE HELP!!" I scream, "It sounded like it was coming from the shed," Sunny says, "Probably the wind?" Sideswipe shrugs, "No I heard a voice shh listen?" "SUNNY HELP!! SIDESWIPE GET ME OUT! HELP!" I scream, "SHADOW!" They both yelp, "SUNNY SIDES HELP ME!" I scream crying, "Calm down Shadow! We'll help you!" Sideswipe says, "Sunny call Hide! Get the passcode! Now!" "Alright calm down Shadow!" Sunny says then I hear the wonderful sound of Daddy's alt!

"Shadow!" Sideswipe yells, "OKAY!" Ironhide yells then I hear someone running towards the shed, "Don't worry baby, it's alright calm down," I hear Daddy soothe, I smile knowing Daddy will save me soon the door is opened making me run and jump into Dad's opened arms, I start sobbing "Daddy I was stuck in the shed!" Daddy holds me close to his much warmer body, "Primus gal yer cold," Jazz says touching my arm, "Let's get you inside," Momma says to Daddy who picked me up and carried me inside the house.

Once inside Mommy made hot cocoa for everyone and put extra marshmallows in mine, making Sides and Daddy jealous while I drank my warm beverage, I felt all warm inside while the hot cocoa slipped down my throat while I took small sips not wanting to burn my tongue, I felt Momma kiss my cheek while she wrapped a blanket around me, soon I was done with my drink so I rinsed the cup and washed it then set it on a towel to dry.

"Chromia?" Daddy calls while he walked into the living room, "Yes baby?" Momma calls "Where are you?" I call "In mine and Daddy's room making sure the bed is made for tonight," Momma calls, "Hide is getting his Christmas present tonight," Crosshairs snickers while the others bust out laughing "Crosshairs!" Mom scowls coming down the stairs "What does that mean Mommy?" I ask curiously, "It's an inside joke you wouldn't get since your too young," DragonFly says with a smile, "But I want to know," I say while Arcee pulled me in her lap, "Sorry honey your too small and adorable for that kind of stuff," Bee says kissing my forehead, "Bee is right," Jazz says walking up, "Ugh it's 12 at night?!" Mom shouts "Everyone time for bed! You too Ironhide!" Mom says when she sees Dad trying to sneak out the door, "Come on Chromia!" Dad whines while Mom has his hand in hers, "Chromia? Ironhide? Can Shadow and I have a little sleepover?" Sideswipe asks looking at Mom, "Sure keep her in your room though," Mom says with a smile.

"M'kay!" Sideswipe calls carrying me up the stairs with Sunny behind him, once to their room Sideswipe leaves me with Sunny and goes to my room and grabs my sleeping bag, "Alright no bed, we are going to sleep on the floor," Sideswipe says laying my black sleeping bag on the floor along with my pillow and Mr. Dinkles my stuffed white bunny Crosshairs and Drift got me.

"Mr. Dinkles!" I cheer and climb into my sleeping bag while Sides climbed into his red while Sunny also climbed into his own yellow one, "Alright lights are off and Shadow is in her sleeping bag I think we're ready" Sideswipe says then lays down in his sleeping bag, I shiver at the coldness in their room, "If you cold me and Sunny got a spot for you" Sideswipe mumbles making me crawl over to them with my sleeping bag and Mr. Dinkles, I lay between them and snuggle into their warmth.

"Merry Christmas Sides and Sunny, I love you both" I whisper softly.

"Merry Christmas baby and we love you too," they both whisper in sync.

"Night Sunny, night Sides"

"Night Cutie"

"Night Squishy"
