"Aw hey Bee" Arcee greeted walking up to the sparkling in the berth.
Bumblebee slightly turned his helm and waved to acknowledging the femme that stood beside him.
"How are you feeling?" Arcee asked noticing Bumblebee looked a lot then he was a few days ago.
Bumblebee sighed and looked towards the door wanting to be free to run around.
"I could ask Ratchet if you can walk around?" Arcee said noticing what the yellow sparkling wanted.
Bumblebee lit up and eagerly nodded his helm after the navy blue femme suggested asking the old medic to let him walk around, after all the only thing that was really hurting was his throat, but he was still to dazed to notice his other pains.
"Ok I will be right back don't run off without me" Arcee smiled walking off to find the medic.
Bumblebee couldn't help but smile he was hoping the cranky old medic would let him move around, he felt fine.
"Alright Bee he said yes, but he told me to give you rests every now and then" Arcee explained reentering the room.
Bumblebee sat up with help from Arcee as she lifted him off the berth and carefully placed him down, Bumblebee held onto Arcee's leg for support, only for the first few steps, soon after getting out of the room his systems woke up a little more, allowing him to walk with a little more ease, but he still clung to his aunty for support.
As they made thier way down the hallway, Bumblebee let out a squeak followed by a cough as he tried to talk to Arcee.
"Bee don't try and speak, use text" Arcee sighed to the small sparkling, as they entered the rec room.
/I don't like not speaking/ Bumblebee let out a robotic warble as Arcee planted him on the couch, before grabbing them some energon.
"Well why not get the modulator Ratchet offered to put in" Arcee suggested handing Bumblebee one of the energon cubes.
/Yeah noying beeps and whirrs, I'm thankful, but don't know if I wan it/ Bumblebee sent his text to Arcee as she sat beside him.
"That's understandable Bee, we are most certainly not trying to force anything on you" Arcee reassured the young scout.
Bumblebee painfully nodded and took a sip of energon before coughing it back up.
"Bee you ok?" Arcee asked grabbing a cloth and wiping the energon off Bumblebee.
/It hurts to swallow/ Bumblebee coughed trying to ignor the pain.
"Sorry Bee, I'm sure there's some way to feed you" Arcee sighed as Bumblebee handed her back his energon.
/I'm not hungry no more, forget bout it.../ Bumblebee gave a robotic sigh, curling up in the couch corner.
"Alright Bee, just let me know when you are, you want to watch a holo vid?" Arcee asked switching on the holo screen.
/Sure.../ Bumblebee tiredly whined watchig the holo vid.
Arcee sighed seeing the depression in the small sparkling, both of his creators were currently out in battle for the next few days while Bumblebee stayed and recovered, Arcee knew Bumblebee felt alone in his current situation, this being his first major injury, being his first permanent injury, she could see in those droopy optics, that the sparkling was not getting the rest he needed, night terrors were probably the reason why, on that thought the boys just happened to stroll into the rec room obviously lookin for some energon.
"Hey there you are" Sideswipe said walking up to Arcee.
"Yeah I'm watching Bee" Arcee said pointing to the sparkling driffting in and out of recharge.
"Aw poor lil guy is exhausted" Jazz cooed getting a close look at Bee.
"How are ya Bee?" Sideswipe asked kneeling down infront of the spot where Bumblebee sat.
/Tired n hungry, but don't wanna eat/ Bumblebee texted the silver twin.
"Why not Bee you need the nourishment" Sideswipe said grabbing Bee and energon cube.
/Cause my throat hurts when I try n swallow/ Bumblebee complained pushing away the cube.
"Well try a differen't way then" Mirage taking the energon, told Bumblebee.
"Yeah warm it, that should sooth your throat" Jazz said taking the energon from Mirage and warming it for Bumblebee.
"Here now try" Sunstreaker said taking the energon and handing it to Bumblebee.
Bumblebee stared at it for a brief moment and then his hunger got the best of him and he took a small sip of the warmed energon, wich actually made his throat feel better like the boys predicted.
"Better?" Arcee asked, recieving a smile and a slow nod from the hungry sparkling.
"There you see Bee, every problem has a solution" Sideswipe told Bumblebee who happily drank his energon.
Bumblebee mulled over the last words that Sideswipe had just told him, and thought deeply about getting the modulator so he could communicate in some form of sound.
Later after playing with the boys and Arcee, Bumblebee decided to go see Prowl, just to say hi and see how the crazy rule bot was doing.
Bumblebee walked into the communication room where Ironhide Ratchet and Prowl where talking, using the wall to support himself, Bumblebee didn't want to interupt the bots so he quietly after many attempts climbed onto a large nearby chair and waited for the old mechs to finish whatever they were talking about.
As Ratchet and Ironhide spoke, Prowl noticed the tiny sparkling sitting patiently in a nearby chair behind the two speaking with him.
"Hang on a minute Ratchet" Prowl said stopping the medic from talking as he made his way over to Bumblebee.
"Bumblebee what are you up to sparkling?" Prowl cooed kneeling down infront of Bumblebee.
/I wanned to come see you, and say hi/ Bumblebee smiled at the officer.
"Aw hello to you to, that's very nice of you Bumblebee" Prowl smiled patting Bumblebee's helm.
"Why arent you hanging out with Arcee and te boys?" Ironhide asked turning towards the sparkling.
/They had to go do reports/ Bumblebee gave a robotic sigh.
"Optimus and Elita are out for the next little while" Ratchet told the black and white mech.
"I see, so you must be bored huh?" Prowl asked Bumblebee who nodded in respons.
"Well I can take him to the shooti..."
"No he is not ready for that yet, and Arcee was supposed to be watching Bumblebee!" Ratchet growled at Ironhide.
Bumblebee rolled his optics as the three started to argue, Bumblebee didn't want to be a burden to them so he carefully slid off the chair ready to leave.
"Go take a nap Bumblebee it will be for the best" Ratchet said picking Bumblebee up.
/I'm not tired though/ Bumblebee argued as he was carried out of the communications room and into Optimus and Elita's.
"That's a load of scrap and you know it" Ratchet said placing Bumblebee in his berth.
/Fine.../ Bumblebee rolled his optics and made himself comfy.
"Have you thought about the modulator?" Ratchet asked.
/Yeah.../ Bumblebee nodded.
"And?"
