Authors Notes: After watching the movie twice I just had to write a story, especially the SamxBee paring that seems to be flying around lately and I wanted to give my hand a try at it. Please don't be harsh and I do not tolerate flames or immaturity around my stories. This story is rated PG-13 for language.

Warning: This story contains romance between two males and if your uncomfortable please turn back now. It's not like I'm forcing you to read this anyways.

Disclaimer: I don't own Transformers. They belong to Michael Bay and Hasbro. I just like to use the characters for pure entertainment.

Bumblebee: More like torture

Me: What was that?

Bumblebee: Nothing… (Scuffles feet)

Between Thick and Thin


Prologue: Breakup

Megatron had just been defeated and the city was a mess. Los Angeles had been once a beautiful city but it was destroyed by war between to alien organic from a planet called Cybertron. The Autobots had offered to help clean up the mess, but lately Sam Witwicky had been distracted. Yes, he was the hero that had saved the whole entire planet, but he couldn't help but feel that his hot girlfriend had distances herself from him and he wondered if he had done something wrong in their relationship. He watched as Optimus Prime clear some of the derbies were a couple of humans was trapped. Sam shook his head as he walked over to Mikeala who was helping Ratchet repairing a young girl's leg.

"Um . . . Mikeala, can I speak to you in private?"

Mikeala smiled at the girl and patted her on the head. The little girl looked up at the medic bot with such amazement. The girl's parents came and they thanked the both of them.

"Of course Sam. What is it that you want to talk about?"

Sam looked up towards Ratchet. He nodded, understanding that the two needed to be alone.

"What is it that you need to talk to me about Sam?"

Sam sighed. He tried to think of a way to say it correctly so Mikeala wouldn't get angry with him.

"I noticed that you have distance yourself from me lately. Have I done something wrong in our relationship?"

Mikeala smiled. Sam loved the way she smiled. To him, it was comfort and gave him warmth. He knew better though by the way her eyes looked.

"You have done nothing at all Sam. I quite enjoy our time together, and I love you. I think it's time that we need a break from each other Sam. The Autobots need you more than me."

Sam's mouth dropped, "Is this what the whole thing is about?"

Mikeala lowered her eyes to the ground, finding the cracked concrete interesting. She loved Sam more than anything, but she didn't want to break his heart at the same time. This was his victory not hers and she didn't feel accepted by the Autobots like Sam was. Besides, she could barely get him out of his brand new Camero, which happened to be Bumblebee.

"You know I love you more than anything Sam but this isn't my place. I'm glad that I helped you and everything but please try and understand me." She walked up to him and kissed Sam on the cheek. Mikeala smiled at him before she turned and waved him goodbye. He watched Mikeala leave as his heart gave a painful squeeze. He sighed and shook his head. He would never understand girls but he knew that she would always remain in his heart.


Not far away, a yellow and black bot couldn't help but feel sorry for Sam. His spark squeezed painfully in his chest as he watched the scene. He wanted to bring Mikeala back and to make sure that Sam would be happy. Bumblebee hated to see Sam this way and he knew that it took him eons to make him happy especially if it was on the subject of Mikeala.

Shaking his head, Bee decided to help Ratchet with the debris around the city. He knew that Sam was strong and he would continue on even though Bee couldn't help but feel like he had to be close to him. He was jealous whenever he and Mikeala would make out on his hood and for the fact that he wanted to be with the boy more than anything. Ratchet noticed the slight change of air around the yellow and black bot.

"Something wrong Bee? You seem depressed."

Bee growled to himself. It always had to be Ratchet to point something out.

"Stop worrying about me Ratchet. Do you always have to point out if something's not right?" snapped Bee.

Ratchet was shocked at Bumblebee's sudden change of attitude. Shaking his head, the medic decided to leave Bee alone. He could think of a conclusion of why Bee was acting like the way he did but they had work to do.


DietyofDeath17: Ack, horrible chapter and please don't kill me for it! (Shakes and runs away from readers) I'm suffering from Writers Block and I had to write something and this popped in my head! And besides, this is only the prologue. If you want more please read and review! And like I said, no flames! I will not tolerate it.
