Hello, this is my story for Bumblebee, this is a very musical story, Mistress Bumblebee requested to be his girlfriend and I let her so this story is dedicated to her. Hope you enjoy!
Bumblebee sighed inwardly. The traffic in this place sucked on week days. Commuters raced to get home so that they could plunk their fat butts on the couch and do nothing. It really didn't make sense to Bumblebee but then he knew humns could wear themselves out really easy. He had seen his friends collapse out of pure tiredness.
Bumblebee was stuck in traffic trying to get to the school Aella, Nikkei and Chloe went to, the others weren't able to pick them up that day so he was charged with picking them up. it wasn't that he minded the girls it was just that they could be a little weird and it kind of freaked him out. With another sigh he flipped on the radio- Daft Punk began to play Harder, Better, Stronger, Faster. And with a slight jerk to the beat in the music he continued on.
"Work it harder, make it better, do it faster, makes us stronger" the music continued. Bumblebee pulled into the school parking lot; as usual the girls were late. Bumblebee looked around, he saw boys and girls but one girl caught his attention. She sat alone on the grass; he head was bowed as she scribbled madly into a book. Her brow was furrowed in frustration as she scribbled out a few lines and started again.
He watched the girl with a growing interest, something about her was different from all of the rest. He set out to find what. Suddenly the girl lifted her head and threw back her hair over her shoulder. Her arm clenched the back of her neck as she rolled the kinks out of them. She had a nice face, one that looked tired but Bumblebee's resources told him that school did that to the students. The girl then went back to her notebook, her hair fell back once more covering her face.
Bumblebee's attention was diverted when someone tapped his hood; it turned out to be Nikkei.
"heya Bee" she winked at him.
"Hello, hello to you" the stupid kid's song came from inside the car.
Aella laughed "how are you?" she knelt down in front of him.
"Like you" Evanescence emitted from Bumblebee.
"So you're good?" Chloe implied. This was a game the girls played with Bumblebee, it wasn't to tease him, they just liked to see the answers he came up with. They car jerked, it was his way of nodding.
"So where are the others?" Aella looked around for them.
"Home, home on the range" the girls giggled.
"I wonder why?" Chloe wondered out loud. "Never mind, let's get going we have to prepare"
Bumblebee considered asking them what they were preparing for but decided to let it be. Once the girls got in he braved one last look at the girl and drove off.
The girls chatted all the way to the base; Bumblebee participated in most of the conversations but since he was unable to talk his input was at a minimum. At the base the girls thanked him and ran off to the lake. Bumblebee watched them go and transformed, he walked into the base.
Back at the school the girl still sat, the busses had gone and most of the kid's that were still there were waiting for a ride. Much like her, her name was Jessica. She had been writing her new song and was proud of what she had so far. In her mind dozens of tunes played over and over again, none made sense but it was just her way of thinking. Together those tunes made something new which she could use and make into something great.
She was waiting for her mom to pick her up, since they had just moved to this small town it was likely that her mom had gotten lost, but that was fine with her. With a sigh she scanned the road running along the school, no sign of mom. A few minutes passed and finally her mom came, with a sigh of relief Jessica ran into the car, her mother smiled at her.
"hey hon'" her mom started the car, made a u-turn and headed back the way she had come. "How was school? Any new friends?"
Jessica sighed "mom, we just moved here, I haven't had enough time to make friends, besides I can't just walk up to some one smile and become their friend"
"Sure you can" he mom persisted. "I bet you if you just try, then you'll make some good friends"
Jessica smiled sadly "alright" her mom came to an intersection and bit her bottom lip.
"Now which way did I come from?"
Jessica leaned forward to get a clear view of the street in front of her, she had no idea either.
Half an hour later the two came home, they entered the new house littered with boxes. Jessica took her bag up to her new room and sat down in a huff, she was tired.
Bumblebee was overcome, three large bots crowded around him trying to get the information of where their girls were in a subtle way.
Ironhide shifted his head to the side "hey Bee"
Ratchet smiled "how's it goin?"
Optimus crossed his arms, he was more blunt then the other two "where are they?" he demanded. Bumblebee slumped his shoulders, so much for a conversation. He would give anything to say something in his own words just to be able to talk to some one in his own voice. Ratchet had promised to fix him but he of course was very busy. Bumblebee jerked his head back to the entrance of the base indicating that they were outside. The three love sick bots rushed past him with out another word. He shook his head and was about to walk into his room when Jazz came around the corner.
"Hey Bee" Jazz waved at him. Bumblebee nodded in acknowledgement. Jazz shook his head. "Im happy im not in love, if I do I want you to shoot me" Bumblebee laughed quietly, he would have said 'my pleasure' but that of course wasn't possible.
Suddenly Optimus, Ironhide, and Ratchet came trudging back in, all looked mad.
"Who are they to send us away?" Ironhide grumbled.
Optimus gave Bumblebee a suspicious look. "They told us to go away, and to send you to them, do you know why"
Bumblebee shrugged, he didn't know. But he decided to go to the girls anyways, and so while he walked his back was given death glares.
Bumblebee entered the bright sun light and sought out the girls; they were at the edge of the lake. They waved to him and he ran over.
"Here I am" Brian Adams sang.
"So I see" said Chloe.
"We need your help" Aella smiled up at him, her hands shielded her eyes from the bright sun as she looked up at him.
"You see we entered the talent show, which is coming up and we have absolutely no idea as to what were supposed to do" Nikkei laughed as she said it.
"You're agile; can you teach us a few dance moves?" Chloe wiggled her arms for effect. Bumblebee smiled, he nodded, it was nice to be needed. And so into the day he got them ready, the music was picked and so were the moves, the girls just had to perfect it.
Jessica entered school and saw a large sign saying that the talent show sign ups were due soon, all of the rules were under the banner, and she read them thoughtfully. Suddenly an incredible girly fake voice came from behind her.
"Don't tell me your signing up?" Jessica turned to see a girl that looked something like a Barbie, she was wearing all pink and she flashed a stupid smiled in her direction. "You can't possibly sign up, I mean you so unfashionable. Come on those jeans, so yesterday." She threw in another smile. Jessica shook her head was this girl for real?
A group of girls had heard what the mean one had said to Jessica, one girl with blond hair clenched her fists. The one with waist length hair narrowed her eyes and the black haired one ran a hand down her face. The mean girl continued her rant on all the reasons Jessica shouldn't join the talent show. The three girls came up behind her and the one with the long brown hair tapped her on the shoulder.
"Laura leave her alone, she has every right to be in the show"
"but she will get beaten horribly, by me, so what's the use. I heard you signed up too, don't worry I wont embarrass you guys too much"
The black haired girl snarled at her "just leave her alone" Laura huffed, she turned on her heel and left.
The mad girls had gone through a transformation in front of Jessica, no longer were they snarling, they smiled at her.
"Hey, im Aella" the girl with the long hair stuck out her hand, Jessica shook it.
"Im Nikkei" the black haired girl smiled.
"And im Chloe" the blond girl offered her a shy smile.
"Im Jessica" she looked at the three girls and smiled.
"Your new here right?" Aella asked, Jessica nodded, "do you want to eat with us at lunch?"
"sure" Jessica held onto her backpack tightly.
"Oh and don't mind Laura, she's just like that" Chloe said comfortably.
"Alright" Jessica laughed. Suddenly the bell rang signaling that the first class was about to start.
"hey what class do you have?" Nikkei asked.
"English"
"hey that's with me" Chloe smiled, "I'll show you the way" and so the girls walked off to their classes.
At lunch the Autobots were surprised to see a new girl with their girlfriends. Bumblebee happened to be with them and gasped inwardly, there was the girl he had seen writing in her notebook. She was laughing at something Aella had said and the rest of the girls were smiling.
The Autobots turned on their holoforms and waited for the girls to reach them, they would have a part in lunch too. They got out and sat in the grass. The girls reached them and smiled.
"Every one this is Jessica" Nikkei said not losing a beat.
To save Jessica from questions they made up different names for the Autobots on the spot.
"uh this here" Aella pointed to Ironhide "is uh Gary" Ironhide lifted a brow but went with it all the same.
"and this" Chloe pointed at Optimus "is, oh, Fred" Optimus gave her a death glare.
Ratchet was introduced as Bob and Bumblebee was Billy. Simple names but they were what the girls could come up with in the short amount of time they had. Jessica didn't seem fazed by the simplicity of their names; she just smiled and sat down next to Bumblebee. Chloe sat next to Optimus and Aella sat on top of Ironhide who circled his hand around her waist and whispered into her ear
"Gary, that's the best you could come up with?" Aella smiled not answering him. Nikkei squatted down next to Ratchet and used his shoulder to hold her up. they ate lunch, talking and laughing like most normal friends, little did Jessica know she was among those who were very different.
The bell rang and the girls headed inside. Jessica looked over at Billy and gave him a shy smile which he returned. He was incredibly cute, his shaggy blond hair hung in his eyes and his had to constantly move them to the side. He wasn't skinny like most cute guys he was muscle, and a lot of it. Jessica said good bye to them and headed back. Once at the door she turned around only to see that the men weren't there any more. She tilted her head to the side, that was weird. With a shrug she went in and went to class but not before signing up for the talent show.
