Angst & fluff
Even with how exhausted Jamie is, she’s struggling to sleep. Her insomnia is once again a problem. As unusual as it might seem for such an action to be done to an adult, Drift sings a Japanese lullaby he learned while holding Jamie on his lap, Jamie leaning on him. Crosshairs stayed downstairs to clean up the living room.
Cogman shooed Crosshairs out of the living room, which he found odd, but he knows not to argue with the human-sized silver mech. Even if Crosshairs was using his bipedal form. He sits on the steps.
It’s not long before Drift sits on his left, letting out a frustrated sigh.
“It’s funny how much you wanted to leave Earth,” Drift comments, looking at the stars.
Crosshairs finds the comment sudden and out of the blue.
“Who knows if we can live on Cybertron yet? Even if we can, I’m not leaving my family. Many Autobots may struggle to leave Earth permanently, but I doubt we’ll have to make that decision.”
Drift smiles, looking at the stars. He would like to go to Cybertron, but he can’t return to Cybertron for good. Even if a spacebridge between the two planets is functional. This wouldn’t mean it would be easy for Autobots and humans to continue to see each other.
“How hard did Jamie fight going to sleep?”
“With how exhausted she was, she was asleep in minutes. I worry about her. The sudden return of her insomnia. The inertia of her mental health is concerning. I-I don’t think there’s anything we can do.”
Tears roll down Drift’s face. Crosshairs hugs his friend.
They remain outside, gazing at the stars. It’s a quiet ten minutes. Crosshairs realizes Drift’s head rests on his shoulder. While he has to go up a flight of stairs, Crosshairs carries Drift rather than wake him.
Drift had already moved the blankets from his side of the bed, making it easier for Crosshairs to put his friend to bed.
Crosshairs sighs as he stands by the window, looking at the stars. Worried about both his friends, knowing how hard it is for Drift to watch the one he loves struggle mentally. Crosshairs hates watching his friends hunt and how little he can help them.
