Helping a Heart to Heal (Beast Wars Tarantulas AU x Female Reader)

Planning for the Baby (Part 1)

*Two months later*
*Y/n's POV*

It was a two days before Valentines Day and Y/n had moved in with Tarantulas. Her old house, the one that used to be a guest house at her parent's home, was now fully used as an art gallery, since Tarantulas didn' t want any of Y/n's art projects taking over his home. But what matters now was that she was happy.

Y/n waits for Tarantulas to get home from the lab so they could go shopping for the nursery they are setting up in one of the spare bedrooms. She was hesitant at first with moving into Tarantula home but it was foe the best. She pulls out her phone to text Tarantulas: Where are you at?

I'm just down the street. In a few minutes I'll be home, Tarantulas texts back.

I'm ready to head out when you get here.

Well you are going to have to wait for me to change into a set of clean clothes. There was an accident today at Primus University.

Speaking if which I need my new class schedule for this semester.

Will take care of that later. I'm just now pulling it the driveway. See you soon.

Y/n puts her phone away. She waits by the door for Tarantulas. As soon as the door opens and he steps through the doorway, Y/n grabs a hold of him and kisses him. "Missed you," said Y/n.

"Misses you too," said Tarantulas before return Y/n's affection with a kiss as well.

"So what happened?"

"One of the students Primus University caused an explosion in the Science Building. So for now I'm without a building to teach in but the lab is untouched. The blast got the blast doors. If it got the lab, tbst kid would have gotten more than just a month's worth of suspension." Tarantulas heads upstairs and Y/n follows after him. He was just about to take his shirt off when he feels Y/n wrap her arms around him. "Later, Y/n."

Y/n presses her body against Tarantulas. "We have time."

"I said later, Y/n." Tarantulas pulls Y/n's arms off of himself and turns to face her. "Yet you still crave for me."

Y/n kisses Tarantulas on his nose. "Later it is then. Now lets go. We have quite a bit to buy."

"Yeah...don't remind me." Tarantulas was still unsure about the whole parenting thing.

Y/n heads back downstairs and waits for Tarantulas to get himself cleaned up. After about an hour, they head out.

*Tarantulas's POV*

Tarantulas keeps his attention on the road as he drives to the store. He tightens  his grip on the steering wheel.

"Nervous?" Y/n asks.

"I am in fact. Didn't think I'd get to this post in my life. I'd thought the Maximals and Predicons would still be fighting the stupid war. And here I am, I have you and going to be having a baby in seven months."

"You don't think I am just as scared as well? Hell I didn't think I'd get to this point in my life as well. I didn't think I'd end up with anyone."

"And yet I've shown you that you can be with a Cybertronion without have to do a sparkbond or become bondmates."

"That is true. Speakkng of which, are we going to do a sparkbond?"

"After the baby is born. At that point we don't have to worry about harming the child."

"What if I have twins?" Y/n jokingly asks.

"Don't jinx it," said Tarantulas. "Don't think I could handle that kind of stress."

"You handled me just fine even though I wanted to kill myself."

"I tried pushing you away but fate had difficulty plans. So what are we getting today?"

"Crib, furniture mainly, and paints. We can buy everything else when it gets closer to the due date."

"That'll work."

*Y/n's POV*

Y/n stood in the isle that has the cribs. Budget wasn't the problem, it was choosing the right one. "We can always get one that conversation into a bed later on when the child gets older," said Y/n.

"We could," said Tarantulas. "We can always come back another day."

"We could. How about for right now we get the paints and paint the nursery. We can always get the furniture later."

"How about an animal theme or a jungle theme?"

"I got a good idea. How about we use some of the pictures you've taken and will work with that."

"That can work. Well need to get quiet a bit of paint though."

Tarantulas picks out a plain white crib, one that would be easily made to what design Y/n wanted but one that wouldn't fall apart easily. He lets Y/n pick the paints colors for the nursery. After that, he buys what is needed and loads it all in his truck. He had to play Tetris to get everything to fit in the back. "Not  doing that again for a long time," said Tarantulas as he opens the drivers side door and gets into the cab.

"Well what if I had twins?" Y/n asks as she opens the passenger side door and gets into the cab.

Tarantulas hits his head on the steering wheel and starts laughing. "Do you really want to jinx it?"

"Its a 'what if scenario'. Always plan for what could happen. Plus in about a few months will need to get a car. Can't be hoisting myself into this truck when it eight months pregnant."

"Don't worry. That's what I plan on doing." Tarantulas pulls out of the parking spot and drives off, making sure the coast was clear before making a right turn.

"We should consider names here soon."

"We will. For now lets just get this stuff home." Tarantulas wasn't looking forward to painting a room different colors but being with Y/n was what mattered most to him now.
