Here's another one shot, may turn into a longer story
Bumblebee sped faster down the deserted road. It gave him pleasure to be out on the open road the wind wrapping around him as he raced down hot asphalt. Yes, this was wonderful. The sky was a brilliant blue with lazy clouds drifting along. The turnoff to Jasper was coming up and Bumblebee was tempted to keep going. Raf is waiting, the yellow scout reminded himself. He turned his tires squealing and slowed down as he neared the town. Raf was seated outside the school building a book balanced in his lap. He was so focused on his reading that he didn't notice his guardian pull up until Bumblebee honked. Raf jumped up the book clattering to the ground. Face reddening he leaned down to pick it up when a pair of hands beat him to it. Raf looked up at the round face of JJ Kemp, the meanest kid in the city. JJ smiled broadly revealing rotting yellow teeth and washing Raf with his disgusting cigarette breath.
"What we got here boys?" he asked his group of lackeys who followed him everywhere.
"Looks like ah rat tah meh." a tall skinny boy with shaggy blonde hair stammered. JJ nodded.
"A pest, and do you know what we do to pests little boy?" Raf swallowed backing towards Bumblebee.
"You... exterminate them?" Raf said shakily.
"Like a Dalek." JJ said with a knowing smile. Raf frowned he wouldn't have thought someone like JJ would watch Doctor who. JJ stepped forwards and Raf backed up even more. Bumblebee's door swung open and Raf scrambled into his seats as the door closed and the yellow car sped off. JJ's face was priceless, Raf thought happily.
"Thanks Bee." he said patting the dashboard. Bumblebee beeped and Raf laughed. "I'm sure you could've taken them, you take out those 'cons on a regular basis!" Bumblebee managed to laugh with his damaged voice box. The result was a grinding sound and he buzzed in pain as the gears ground together. "Bee! Stop it!" Raf cried in alarm. Bumblebee fell silent keeping focused on the road. It had been a while since he had tried to speak or make any noise with his voice box. They rode along the sky tinged red as the sun started to set. Raf had been at school longer today, something about math club?
"Hey Raf what were you doing after school again?" He beeped. Raf smiled.
"I was at Math Olympiads, it's this math thing." Bumblebee buzzed his understanding and they continued on their way to the base.
