Windblade x Starscream
Cute moment with daddy Star and his babs
———

Today was a day that Windblade had prayed to come ever since the departure of her beloved, Starscream. The day he finally came home after spreading diplomacy throughout the galaxy. It wasn't a dangerous job by any means, but the relationship between Autobot and Decepticon was still tense.

Even if the war had ended years ago.

The femme's two daughters were busy playing outside, their little squeals and chirps bringing happiness to her spark. She also had another little one on the way, a mech. Starscream had been absolutely overjoyed when he found out.

Windblade was currently making energon sweets for her two daughters, humming a soft tune as she worked. Her wings twitched when she heard a familiar sound, her head immediately perking up. She turned off the heat so the sugary blue substance wouldn't burn and headed over to the door, opening it and looking up at the sky.

The signature roar of a seeker's engines ripped through the peacefully silent atmosphere, but this was a good thing to be heard. It could only mean one thing.

Starscream had finally come home.

Windblade stepped outside and walked over to where her daughters were watching in awe. She smiled and brought them over to a little clearing near their housing unit, where she kept them close while she waited for her sparkmate.

She had to hold back a laugh as Starscream did a few tricks, flaunting about in the air and showing off like he always did. He was an amazing flier, no one could deny that.

After he was done, he transformed in mid-air and made a dramatic landing. As he rose to his full height, his wings flicked up and clicked into place on his back. "How about that, huh? Probably the best show I've put on since the war." He said with a smirk, looking up at his family as he put a hand on his hip.

Windblade only rolled her optics and chuckled, gazing at Starscream lovingly. "Whatever you say, dear."

"Daddy!" The tallest of the two sparklings, Nebula, squealed and ran towards her father, jumping into his embrace and hugging him tightly. Her little wings were practically quivering in excitement.

Starscream grinned and lifted his eldest daughter up, bouncing her in his hands before bringing her down and hugging her. "Hello, sweetspark. My, you've grown so much!" He chuckled, playfully tickling her stomach.

"Mama said I'm gonna be as big as you when I grow up!" Nebula giggled, kicking her tiny pedes at Starscream's hand until he stopped tickling her.

"Oh, I think I'll still be bigger than you!" Starscream teased, giving Nebula a sweet kiss on her helm. He looked up when he heard little babbles and chirps, seeing his youngest daughter, Sunspot, wobbling towards him on shaky legs. He gently set Nebula down and knelt down on one knee, holding out his hands encouragingly towards Sunspot. "Come here! Come to me, my little ray of sunshine!" He cooed, gently lifting her up when she reached him and peppering her cute little helm with kisses.

"I recorded her first steps so you could watch it when you got back since you were busy working." Windblade said as she walked over to the trio, smiling at how happy they all were.

"I feel terrible that I missed it in the first place." Starscream replied, chuckling when Sunspot pat his face with her tiny hands. He stood up and went over to his lovely sparkmate, giving her a passionate kiss and nuzzling her helm. "I missed you so much..."

"I did too. We all did." Windblade murmured into the kiss, gently pulling away after a moment and nuzzling Starscream's forehead. "I'm so glad you made it home safe." She said with a smile.

Starscream smiled back and gently set Sunspot down when she started getting fussy, reaching his hands up to rub Windblade's shoulders. "You know I hate it when I have to leave you here by yourself with them. But I do it so we all can live a good life for once." He mumbled, his gaze trailing down to Windblade's growing sparkling bump. His smile grew and he gently placed a hand on her stomach. "Thought of any names yet?"

"I wanted to wait until you got back. He's your son too." Windblade answered with a snicker, giving Starscream a sweet kiss on his cheek before leading him and her two daughters back to their housing unit.

Starscream chuckled softly and rolled his optics. He already had a thousand names in mind, but he would only choose the best for his little son. The little son he had been hoping to have ever since the war ended, not that he didn't love his daughters though. He loved them endlessly with his entire spark and he was willing to do almost anything for them.

And he couldn't ask for anything more than what he had right now.
