-A few hours later-

Bumblebee had finished patching up Knockout's wounds along with the medic's instructions, of course. Once he had cleaned up everything, he sat down next to Knockout and sighed gently. "You know, I couldn't go a day without thinking of you." He said, glancing at the red medic beside him.

"Really? I couldn't go a day without thinking of you too." Knockout said, leaning against Bumblebee's shoulder slightly and smiling. "Cybertron is so lively now, but it just didn't feel the same without you."

Bumblebee chuckled, slipping his hand into Knockout's and holding it gently. "How is it? Is it any different than it was before the war?"

"Oh, it's very different. Some aspects still stuck, but mostly everything looks different. Iacon was rebuilt and looks more beautiful than ever." Knockout replied, blushing slightly when Bumblebee held his hand.

"How is Ratchet? Is he still the old grump we all know?" Bumblebee chuckled, remembering the orange and white medic that used to scold him all the time.

"He's doing great. He lightened up a bit, but he still has that iconic attitude." Knockout said, snickering slightly and shaking his head. "Such a stubborn mech, he is."

"I figured."

Knockout sighed, looking up at the sky for a moment. He turned onto his side slightly, laying his helm on Bumblebee's chassis.

Bumblebee smiled and rubbed Knockout's helm gently. "Tired?" He asked, raising an optic ridge.

Knockout nodded, yawning and slowly stretching his arms. "Very."

"You can take a nap here. The sun feels nice and I'll keep watch so those two won't bother you." Bumblebee said, gesturing to Sideswipe and Strongarm, who were a ways away bickering over something.

"Alright, Thank you." Knockout smiled, nuzzling Bumblebee's chassis and closing his optics. He sighed heavily, drifting off into recharge almost immediately.
