Author's Note: This chapter takes place the next morning after the events of the previous chapter.

Chapter summary: Omega really should have known better than to swear in front of his daughter.

"Hello" Normal talk.

"Hello" Speaking through the bond.

"Hello" Com-link/Private Com-link.

"Hello" Thoughts.

Omega was exhausted, physically and mentally, he had been an emotional wreck most of the night after the events that had transpired the evening before, he was tempted to stay in his berth. But he wasn't selfish like that, he had his daughter to take care of, he could feel her waking up through their family bond and heaved himself up off his berth. He walked into the wash racks, that were attached to his quarters, to freshen up before he walked out to see his daughter.

Ome rubbed her optics with her small hands as she yawned, she gave a stretch and looked up when her door slid open, she smiled happily when she saw her Sire walk in "Sire!" she said and chirped.

Omega couldn't help but smile, no matter what mood he was in, seeing his daughter always put him in a better mood "Good morning" he replied "did you rest well?" he lowered a hand for her.

Ome tweeted and nodded "Yeah" she replied and climbed into his large band "Sire rest ok?"

Of course Omega hadn't recharged well at all, but he didn't want her worrying "Yes I did" he lied.

That seemed to satisfy Ome and she smiled.

Omega smiled and gently held her to his chest as he walked out her quarters, he walked into the Rec Room and first got his daughter some energon, he couldn't grab the cube himself as it was so small, so he had taught her to grab it "There you go" he said.

Ome chirped and grabbed the cube.

Omega then got himself some energon, he fancied some warm energon, so he changed the temperature. But when he had a lot on his mind, in this case the destruction of the Youth Sectors, he had a habit of making his energon too hot. He grabbed the cube once it was full and sat down on the couch, he lifted his face shield from over his face and took a swig of his energon, he grimaced when he realised it was too hot and ended up burning his mouth, he had to swallow the energon he had in his mouth as he couldn't spit it out "Frag" he cursed.

"Frag" a small voice repeated.

Omega looked down at his daughter in shock, did she just say what he think she said? "What did you just say?" he asked, eventhough he had heard her perfectly well, his processor seemed to have froze when he heard it.

"Frag" Ome replied and giggled.

Omega wanted to slap himself, how could he have cursed in front of a Sparkling? He should know better than that, he knew Sparklings liked to repeat the things they hear from their Creators sometimes, he put his cube of energon down to let it cool down before pinching the bridge of his nose with his left hand "Ome...you cannot repeat words like that" he said.

Ome blinked "But you said it" she replied.

"Yes but I'm allowed to, I'm an adult, you're not" Omega replied as he moved his hand from his face "you cannot say that word, alright?"

Ome thought about that "I say bad word?" she asked.

"Yes, so please don't say that again if you hear me say it, ok?" Omega replied softly, though he would definitely do his best not to curse in front of his daughter again.

Ome chirped and smiled "Ok Sire" she replied.

Omega sat back on the couch as he breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his helm wearily with his left hand, lesson learned, never curse in front of a Sparkling, else they will repeat it and knock a century off of you from shock.
