   Summary

   Ratchet thought he was free from Drift when he left that abusive relationship in the past. He buried himself in the war efforts to try and forget about him, and he even found love with Optimus. The medic thought that hiding his past relationship with Drift would be good, but once Optimus found it, everything came crashing down.
