Author's Note: This chapter is straight up romantic smut. Proceed with caution :3
There was so much going through Terra's head as she walked up to her bedroom. Opening the door, she paused when she saw the renovations that were added. The room was much larger now. Perfect for Starscream when he was mass displaced. She saw that there was a bigger bed and smiled as she rushed over and tossed herself onto it. It was perfect and so incredibly soft, but she was sure Starscream would tear it to shreds if he so much as tried to lie down on it with her.
She glanced over at her balcony window, knowing Starscream was waiting for her patiently. It had felt like an eternity since they were last here together.
Getting up, she went over to her suitcase and rummaged around in it before pulling out that nightgown she wore so long ago. Did she want to wear this or the new set she bought earlier?
"I'll wear this," she whispered to herself before placing it on the bed. She undressed and slipped the gown on with ease. She saw herself in the mirror and felt a twinge of sorrow as she thought of what had happened last time. While she was having a nice time with Starscream, her family had been kidnapped and subjected to unspeakable horrors.
"You still have Bella and Alcina," that voice whispered.
True, but her parents and the twins were still gone forever. Terra took a deep breath, trying to hold back the urge to cry. Starscream was going to protect her and her sisters with the help of the Autobots. Nothing else was going to happen to them now. They were going to live here together. Nothing could possibly ruin this any further. She wasn't sure how much more heartbreak and horror she could handle.
After taking another deep breath, she gathered some blankets, snacks, some special toys, and water in a backpack and went over to the balcony. She opened it and stepped out.
"Starscream? I'm ready," she said, seeing him standing not too far away. He turned and smiled at her lovingly before walking over to the balcony.
"You look wonderful as always, my little bird," he crowed while offering his servo to her. A gust of wind rushed past her, sending a chill running down her spine and causing her skirt to fly up in an embarrassing manner. Terra blushed and tried to keep it down, gaining a dark chuckle from Starscream.
"It's...kinda chilly out, love. Care to keep me warm?" She asked when the wind settled. She then crawled onto his waiting servo. She had wanted to go to the flower field, but with it being colder out, they would have to go to the caves...or maybe the hot spring.
"Of course, Terra. I forgot you humans got cold with more ease. I'll make sure you don't get a chill," he replied while holding her close to his frame, covering her body with his free claw. Terra smiled while resting her head against his chest, listening to the wonderful sounds his chassis made from within.
"Where shall we go first, Terra?" Starscream asked as he turned to walk into the forest.
"Mmm, I had wanted to go to the flower field and look at the stars with you, but it's cold out and I don't like the cold that much. Do you just want to go ahead to the caves?" She suggested, looking up at him sweetly.
"That sounds like a wonderful plan. You know, while we were mining in the caves, I came across a little secluded area with a natural hot spring. It will be perfect for you to warm up in and it's naturally warm in there," Starscream crowed before nuzzling her cheek. Terra's eyes widened in excitement at that. That sounded amazing and incredibly romantic.
The walk through the forest was so peaceful and quiet besides Starscream's footsteps. They came across a clearing and Terra looked up to see the stars twinkling above. It had felt like such a long time since she last saw such a wonderful sight.
"I missed seeing so many stars like this. They're amazing," she said while searching for Cybertron. It didn't take long before she saw its faint light.
"They're even more amazing up close, but they don't compare to you, little bird," Starscream crowed with a playful smirk on his faceplates. One of his claws gently brushed against her cheek, sending excited shivers rushing through her body.
"Already excited, Terra?" Starscream asked, his expression turning mischievous. Terra felt her cheeks grow warm and glad that it was dark out so he couldn't see how red she probably was.
"I...I am. It's just been so long since we were last really alone together without anyone interrupting us," Terra replied, rubbing her cheek against his chest as another cool rush of wind rolled over them. Starscream's claws wrapped around her tighter, holding her ever so closer to his warm frame.
"It has been a while. I'm just as eager as you are, Terra," he said. A rumbling purr emanated from his frame, making her smile even more.
Some time passed before they finally came across the cave entrance. Some mining tools were strewn about, but Starscream paid them no mind as he walked in. It was darker than usual, but the light from Starscream's optics illuminated the way before them.
"Can I sit on your shoulder, love?" Terra asked.
"Of course. Just be careful," Starscream replied while pulling his servo away from her and lifting her so that she could clamber onto his shoulder with ease. Terra grunted softly as she tried to get into a good sitting position. Starscream watched on silently until she was seated comfortably close to his head. Terra sighed happily, smiling at him sweetly before pointing ahead.
"Onward," she chimed as he began walking again. This was the perfect sitting spot. She was high up and right next to his head so she could easily kiss him. She couldn't stop gazing at him in admiration. He really did look extra shiny. Miko did a wonderful job at polishing him to perfection. Hopefully that was the only part of her punishment.
They finally came across the open area where they first made love. Terra frowned when she saw that many of the energon crystals were now gone besides the large ones that were too large to mine. The glow was duller now. It was good that the Autobots got their much needed energon, but now the cave had lost some of its beauty.
"So, where is this hot spring?" She asked.
"It's not far from here. I went down this one path and found it," Starscream replied while walking past the lake and to another opening in the wall. He kept walking and walking through the tunnel until Terra saw a more brilliant blue glow up ahead. She could hear the familiar sound of running water.
They came across another open area and Terra gasped when she saw what it held. There were three big steaming pools surrounded by large energon crystals shooting out from the walls. The energon illuminated the water in a perfect blue, making it even more wonderful to behold.
"Oh, Starscream. It's beautiful here," Terra said as he lowered her to the ground. She dropped her backpack and rushed over to the nearest pool. She smiled at her reflection and it grew even wider when Starscream looked into the water as well.
"I knew you'd love it, Terra. It's nice and secluded away from the world," he crowed while lazily dipping a claw into the water. Terra noticed a strange look in his optics as his chest began to glow from within.
"Is...there something wrong, love?" She asked.
"There's been something...I've been wanting to do with you, Terra. I had thought about it for a while, but...since you're human, I was unsure of how this could go down," he said while getting into a sitting position by the pool and beckoning her closer. Curious, Terra clambered up his thigh and sat in his lap.
"What are you talking about, Starscream?" She questioned, eager to learn something new about Starscream.
"I'm talking about a sparkbond, Terra. It's when two cybertronians bare their spark to each other to fully cement their bond. Since you're human, you don't have a spark like I do, but I would still like to bare mine to you," he explained, reaching out to gently stroke the side of her face with a single claw. Terra listened to him with wide eyes. That sounded so...romantic!
"I'd like to see it, love. Maybe we can create our own kind of sparkbond," she said, grinning like an idiot. Starscream smiled back at her and scooped her up and raised her to chest level. She could feel the warmth emanating from his chest now.
Starscream let out a sigh as he pressed a panel on his chest, opening it. Terra watched in wonder as his chest opened and she saw a ball of blue light within. It hummed with life and electricity. She had heard about sparks from one of Ratchet's many lectures. From her understanding, this was Starscream's heart and soul and it was open to her only.
Thin tendrils of blue light slowly reached out to her, beckoning her to come closer. She wasn't sure if she was supposed to touch it. What if it hurt him? What if it hurt her?
"What should I do, love? Touch it?" She asked, gazing at his spark and then up at him. Starscream smiled down at her tenderly before bringing her closer to his spark.
"You can. It won't hurt you and you won't hurt me. I promise," he said while running a few claws through her hair.
Terra took a deep breath and reached out to his spark, putting her full trust in him. The tendrils slowly enveloped her hand and pulled it into his spark. It was hot, but it didn't burn her skin. Upon touching his spark, it glowed and hummed more intensely. It was such a wonderful, intimate sensation. Terra heard a grunt from Starscream and looked up at him to make sure he was okay. There were black tears welling up in his optics despite the loving smile adorning his features.
"Are you okay, Starscream? Should I stop?" She asked, worried that she might have hurt him.
"It...It's okay, Terra. I just...I've never done something like this before. It just...caught me off guard, but it feels wonderful, Terra. Absolutely wonderful. Can...you...Did you see how my spark pulled you in? It loves you, Terra," Starscream murmured, cradling her body with his free servo. Terra let out a sigh of relief, glad that she didn't harm him.
She turned her attention back to his spark. More tendrils of blue light reached out to her, inviting her in again. The tendrils changed into familiar clawed hands. Terra felt tears well up in her eyes as she let out a soft giggle while she reached out to a hand and held it. She could feel the love emanating from every part of him. Another hand reached out and caressed the side of her face. Terra leaned into its warm touch, feeling like she could just melt away from such a loving and tender moment. All past troubles and worries and fears were now in the past. All that mattered was loving her sparkmate and forming this beautiful bond.
"I love you, Terra," Starscream whispered, his spark humming even more intensely. Terra looked up at him in pure adoration, knowing that she had made the right decision to fall in love with him. No human could ever love her like this.
"I love you too, Starscream," she whispered back as she let more of those clawlike tendrils reach out to her. She wasn't sure how many had a hold of her, but she knew they would love and protect her no matter what.
"We...We are truly bonded now, Terra. I know I said it when we first interfaced, but that was before I had remembered what a sparkbond was," Starscream said, giving her a gentle squeeze. Terra didn't notice the tears streaming down her cheeks until the claws disappeared and all that remained was his humming spark. She wasn't sure how much time had passed during their bond, but it almost felt like an eternity.
"That was beautiful, Starscream. I don't think I've ever experienced something like that," Terra replied, watching as his chest plates covered his spark again. She looked forward to doing that again with him.
"Neither have I. I'm glad to have done this with you, Terra," Starscream purred, changing shape so that she now sat more comfortably in his lap. Terra sighed happily and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him deeply. Starscream let out a rumbling purr as he held her close and kissed her back. Nothing could be more perfect than loving him here. If she could, she would stay here forever with him, safe from that awful war that had scarred them both.
She slowly pulled away from him, grinning like an idiot as she savored the wonderful taste of him. Starscream smiled back at her as that purr continued to emanate from his frame. His wings twitched to and fro eagerly, making him look all the more adorable.
"Is there anything you want me to do for you, my love?" He asked as one of his claws roamed down her back and tugged at the bottom of her gown. God, there was so much that she wanted him to do to her. She glanced back and saw that the panel hiding his special equipment had moved away, freeing his spike which seemed to glow more brightly now.
"There's so many options, love. I can't really make up my mind just yet," she admitted, her cheeks growing warm.
"We have the whole night together, Terra. I'm sure we'll be able to do whatever it is that you wish to do," Starscream crowed. He was absolutely right about that. She thought back to when they were interrupted so long ago and smiled as she pulled away from him to stand up.
"Do you remember when you won that game of hide and seek, Starscream. You were going to...eat me before the Autobots came along," she said while picking at the bottom of her gown.
"I remember, Terra," Starscream replied, his expression turning mischievous as he went back to his original size. Terra could feel her heart racing in her chest as she looked up at him.
"I'd like to pick up where we left off. I'm yours," Terra said while pulling down the straps of her gown and letting it drop to the floor.
She felt small and vulnerable, but she knew she was safe with him. She looked up at him and she could see the love and want in his optics as he crouched before her, his wings fluttering even more. He opened his mouth, saying something in cybertronian. It sounded so alien, but she could tell that he was saying something incredibly romantic. He stopped and let out a nervous chuckle.
"I do apologize for confusing you, Terra. I just can't hold back my native tongue when I see something so incredibly beautiful as you," he said while slowly scooping her up in his claws.
"It's okay, love. I like how it sounds. I...I'd like to know what you said," she said, resting her cheek against one of his claws. A blue blush formed on Starscream's cheeks in response to that. He glanced away for a moment before turning his attention back to her.
"I said that you were like starlight blessed by the heavens above. So heavenly that even Primus himself must be envious of his past creations," Starscream crowed, pulling her closer to nuzzle the side of her face. Terra felt her heart swell with joy at those beautiful words. Hearing him say it in Cybertronian was astounding, but hearing the true meaning felt even more profound and romantic.
"What's the word for starlight, love?" She asked.
"Hmm, do you like being called by that name, Terra?" Starscream replied.
"I do. I'd like it if you...called me that both ways," she chimed, still blushing like an idiot.
"As you wish, my starlight. I'll tell you how it's properly said," he said before telling her what starlight was in Cybertronian. It sounded so strange, yet so beautiful. She would have to learn how to say it herself. She still had a lot to learn.
"What do you think, Terra?" He asked, his optics now roaming up and down her body as he cradled her in his servos.
"I love it," Terra chimed. She noticed how his hungry gaze went lower and she felt all the more eager for him.
"Perfect. Now that I...opened myself up to you, I believe it's time for you to...open yourself to me," Starscream purred while dragging a single claw down her chest, stopping at her stomach. Terra shivered in response. He could easily slice her open right now, but he wouldn't dare do that.
"I'm yours, my love," Terra said as she spread her legs for him.
Starscream brought her close, letting his glossa hang out a bit before running it along her stomach before going even lower. Steam curled from his mouth and hung around them in a heart shaped cloud. Terra brought a finger to her mouth, biting down on it a bit as Starscream teased her now slick entrance with the tip of his glossa. It was the perfect mix of warm and cool as he slowly pushed his glossa in further while bringing her ever so closer. She noticed how some of his denta grew sharper the more he used his glossa on her. She remembered how he left those lovely lovebites from before. She never did ask him why that happened. She would have to ask him after this.
Starscream hit a sensitive spot, causing her to moan and squirm in his grip. A low hiss came from Starscream's frame as some of his claws curled around her body, keeping her in place.
"Aw fuck me, love. You're wonderful," she murmured, holding on to one of his claws as he continued pleasuring her. She could feel his glossa going in further, filling her up in such a wonderful way.
Starscream slowly pulled his glossa out and then ever so slowly pushed it back in. Terra could feel every bit of it as it went in. Some of it brushed against her clit, making her cry out in ecstasy. She could already feel an orgasm coming up.
"Ah, there, love! Don't stop!" She exclaimed, holding onto his claw for dear life as her legs shook. She could feel him smile as he continued doing that same motion until she finally let loose with a cry. She felt a pain in the hand gripping his claw, but she ignored it as waves of pleasure rolled over her while spilling herself over his glossa.
Starscream slowly pulled away from her, smirking as he licked his chops. Terra laid in his open servo, breathing heavily.
"That was wonderful, love," she said, sitting up a bit. She noticed a scratch in her prosthetic hand, but it wasn't that bad.
"I'm glad you liked it, my little starlight," Starscream chuckled as he reclined next to the pool. Terra crawled onto his chest, sighing happily while resting her head against it.
"Did I taste good?" She asked while giggling.
"Absolutely delectable, Terra. I could devour you every day and I wouldn't grow tired of it," he purred while caressing the side of her face as he began to change form once again so that she laid comfortably on him. Terra blushed, leaning into his touch and feeling the warmth and love emanating from him.
"What would you like to do now, my starlight?" He asked before planting a kiss on her cheek. Terra looked back at his glowing spike and then at the steaming pool.
"I think I'd like a nice warm soak with you," she suggested while getting up on slightly wobbly legs before stepping into the pool. She let out a relaxed sigh as she submerged her body into the water. She smiled over at Starscream and beckoned him to come join her. He appeared frozen in place, gazing at her with wide optics before he smirked and stepped into the pool.
Terra moved so that she sat in his lap. Everything was absolutely perfect here. Even though it would be nice to make love to him in the flower field, they would have to wait for a while until it got warmer.
Her smile grew even wider when she felt Starscream wrap his arms around her middle and pull her close to his frame, resting his chin on top of her head.
"This is nice," she said.
"It's perfect. We're both lucky that I found this place for us," Starscream replied, giving her a gentle squeeze. Terra closed her eyes and began to hum a tune as more of her worries continued to wash away.
Arachnid was busy doing a scan of potential areas where Starscream and Terra could be. She let out an annoyed growl as she stopped. So far, she had found nothing and the grunts that were assigned to her kept coming back with no new information. This certainly wasn't going to make Megatron happy.
"Where are they?" She growled, staring at the screen of the world map. This all felt useless. She knew those Autobots kept their base well hidden, but they had to get out at some point.
Her thoughts were interrupted when the door to her quarters opened. She turned and frowned when she saw Soundwave standing there.
"This better be good, Soundwave. I'm very busy," she said, placing her servos on her hips as she watched the silent con.
Soundwave simply walked over to her data pad and inserted one of his wire tentacles into it. A new map appeared, showing coordinates along with a picture. Arachnid's optics widened as she rushed over to the screen to get a better look. It was a picture of two huma girls doing silly poses while on some street. One looked a lot like Terra, but with blonde hair. The second looked like a child. Sisters. She then looked over at the coordinates and smiled wickedly.
"This is perfect, Soundwave. We now know of their general location. I'll report this to Megatron and then I'll go out and find them. Oh, he's going to be so pleased with this information," she said, rubbing her servos together as she thought of hunting Terra and Starscream down along with those other two.
Soundwave was silent, but she could see him balling his servos into fists. She couldn't help but chuckle at that.
"Oh, you probably already showed him the information, but I think our dear master would like to actually hear the news spoken to him," she crowed before walking past him. This was going to be fun.
Everything felt beyond peaceful according to Starscream. He had long forgotten that fiasco back at the Autobot base. All of his focus was on Terra and loving her as much as he possibly could right now.
He looked down at her and felt his spark hum more intensely at the sight of her safe in his arms. He was so lucky. Beyond lucky to be exact. He ran a claw through her soft hair, smirking when Terra leaned into his touch. He recalled their sparkbond and let out a sigh, breathing steam. He had never felt something like that before. It felt so right and optic-opening. They were now truly bonded until the end of time. His spark knew what it wanted. For the longest time, he thought what he truly wanted was to be the leader of the Decepticons. My, how things have taken such drastic turns.
"I love you, Terra," he whispered while pulling her closer to his frame.
"And I love you too, Starscream," Terra replied, turning around to rest against his chest. Primus, she was beyond beautiful in the mix of the glowing energon surrounding him and from the glow of his optics. She was just like starlight.
Terra shifted, making him all the more aware of how dangerously close her valve was to his unsheathed spike. Was this her being a tease or just unintentional? He would find out very soon what her intentions were.
He reached forward and lifted her chin with a single claw, making her look him in the optics. Terra didn't resist, smiling up at him sweetly. The glow from his optics added a lovely red glow to her emerald eyes, making her all the more enticing.
"You're perfect, starlight," he purred before pulling her into a kiss.
It was always strange kissing her, but the way her warm lips felt against his mouth made him forget about such strangeness. Terra moaned softly into the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck and deepening it. He wrapped his own arms around her, wanting her as close as possible. Steam curled out from the corners of his mouth as he opened it a bit to slowly push his glossa into her mouth. Everything about her tasted absolutely exquisite and left him hungry for more.
After who knows how long, he slowly pulled away from her, biting her bottom lip a bit and making her let out an adorable squeak. He smirked as he licked his chops and savored her taste. Terra rubbed at her lip, her cheeks reddening.
"Your teeth are sharp, love. I noticed they get sharper when we make love. Why is that?" She asked, adjusting herself so that her backside pressed against his spike. He smiled at her, baring her denta at her while pulling her ever so closer.
"It's something us Cybertronians do when mating. I often did it in the past to keep grunts in place while they serviced me. Do you like them?" He asked before planting a kiss on her neck before slowly grazing his denta along her soft skin. Terra shuddered softly, moving her neck to give him more access.
"I...I do. They feel nice. You can mark me as much as you want, love," she murmured. Starscream chuckled darkly as he proceeded to nibble at her neck. The sounds Terra made when he bit her were just so cute. He had to hear more.
"Love, I...I'd like to go for...a ride outside of the pool," Terra murmured when he stopped nibbling at her neck. She moved her hips a bit and he could feel her wetness forming under the water. She was more than ready for him.
"As you wish, my starlight," he purred while standing up while still holding her close. Terra wrapped her legs around his middle and let out a giggle as he nuzzled the side of her face. He stepped out of the pool and sat down comfortably by it. He loosened his grip on her so that she could get in a good position.
She looked down at his glowing spike, biting her lower lip a bit as she slowly lowered herself onto it with a soft moan. Starscream had to bite down on one of his claws to stop himself from crying out in ecstasy.
"Ahh frag, Terra," he groaned, moving his hips so he could push himself to her some more. He could already see the glow of his spike within her as she began rhythmically moving up and down, planting her little hands on his chest plates. He moved with her, taking in every detail of the beautiful sight of her. She was all his to love and adore right here and now.
He wrapped his arms around her, wanting her even closer. Terra wrapped her arms around him as well, caressing the sensitive base of his wings. He let out a rather undignified moan at that, already feeling like he was going to overload from just that, but he wanted to keep going for her.
"You're...You're cute when you moan...like that, love," Terra crowed, giggling softly.
"Incorrect. You're cuter, especially when I do this," Starscream replied before biting down on her shoulder. Terra cried out softly before it turned to a moan when he began running his glossa over the spot.
"I should mark your whole body after this, my little bird," he purred while pulling her down hard on his spike, growling when he felt every bit of her warm valve. This gained another wonderful cry from Terra. She was perfect. His perfect little sparkmate.
Instinct soon took over and he moved so that she was now pinned beneath him, making her gasp in surprise before smiling up at him sweetly. He smiled down at her before kissing her hungrily as he continued pushing himself into her. One servo held her close to his chassis while the other dug into the ground beneath him. Terra moaned into the kiss, holding on to him for dear life while still rubbing at the base of his wings.
His senses were in full swing as he felt his overload quickly approaching. He picked up the pace, becoming all the more aware of how wet and warm she was. He gave a hard thrust that made Terra cry out louder than usual.
"Ah, Starscream~," she moaned while overloading. He could feel her tremble within his grip as her transfluid gushed out of her. It was his turn now.
"My love, you're my sun, my stars...my universe...my starlight," he moaned, not caring that he switched to cybertronian. He gave one last thrust and finally spilled himself into her, causing the two of them to cry out in unison. His grip on her tightened as he continued pumping her full of his transfluid until he slowly stopped, breathing heavily while looking down at her with pure love in his optics. Terra gazed up at him with half-lidded eyes and that adorable crooked smile of hers that he loved so much.
"That...was amazing, love," she crowed, reaching up to caress the side of his face. He leaned into her touch, turning his head to kiss the inside of her wrist. Primus, he was practically bursting with love for her. Nothing could ruin this now.
"You're amazing, Terra," he said while before reluctantly pulling his spike out of her and reclining next to the steaming pool. He held out his arms to her, inviting her to join him. Terra smiled and crawled into his embrace, wrapping her arms around him.
"You're more amazing," she chimed. He usually would have agreed at that, but she had proved just how wonderful she was and she was going to prove it again over and over throughout the evening.
"Ah, I'm glowing again," she said, giggling softly while rubbing her lower stomach. Starscream looked and smiled when he saw the blue glow of his transfluid emanating from within her. Another beautiful sight. He looked forward to making her glow more vibrant by the end of the night.
Starscream stretched his arms and took a look up and down Terra's body for any potential serious scratch wounds he might have left on her. He saw some red lines running up and down her back, but they were nothing serious. He smirked as he traced a claw along one mark, making Terra shiver softly in response.
"Such lovely marks. Now others will know you are with me...especially those boys," he said, growling as he recalled the way those little thugs harassed Terra. He wanted more than anything to lure them out of that town and rip them to pieces, but doing that would be a big mistake.
"Those boys won't come twenty feet with your holoform around, love. I'll be okay," Terra replied. Starscream frowned at that.
"What if I'm not around, Terra? What if I'm called out on a mission and you decide to go out to that town on your own and they see you? I don't think I could bear even hearing of news that you were harmed," he said, wrapping his arms around her middle and pulling her close. Terra grew quiet for a moment before she balled her hands into fists.
"Then I'll protect myself, Starscream. I know how to fight and these prosthetic hands will help me. One punch will have them running away and if that doesn't work, I won't hesitate tearing something off and kicking them where the sun don't shine," she said. He chuckled darkly at the thought of her terrorizing those boys and then looked at her hands. Sure they were strong, but they would be even more effective if they were nice and sharp like his own.
"Have you considered getting an upgrade, Terra? I think sharp claws would be perfect on you," he suggested while taking her hand in his own and kissing it tenderly.
"Mmm, that would be nice. I'll think about it," she said with a playful look in her eyes. She looked over at her backpack and then back at him. Starscream cocked an eyebrow at her, curious to see what she would do next.
"I need to refuel, but once I'm done we can play some more. I brought some of the things I bought today," she giggled while standing up on shaky legs and going to her backpack. Starscream's smile grew as he watched her go. The night was still young.
