8 – Jump Rope
"I'm never going to be normal, am I Bee?"
Bumblebee let out a faint sigh through the air vents in his cabin, mentally preparing his processor for another one of these talks.
"Sam, you need to realize that you're so much more than normal because you know us. You can't keep getting depressed about it, because it's not going to change." Bee said patiently, using his seldom used voice in an attempt to calm his human companion; he knew that Sam liked the sound of his voice.
Sam sighed faintly at that. "I know, but that doesn't mean that I don't want to be just a normal kid. I mean, I didn't even get to go through a day of college before everything blew up in my face again."
Bee couldn't help but chuckle faintly at that one; Sam was right after all. "True, but I think that you enjoy being with us a lot more than you do being at college."
There was a snort from Sam at that; he couldn't help but laugh at the amused tone in Bumblebee's soft voice. "Yea, I can't dispute that claim."
"It will get hard, remember life's like a jump rope! Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yea!"
Sam blinked, and then grinned. "You're right Bee."
Bee snorted faintly, a blast of cool air moving from his vents. "Of course I am. I'm always right."
There was a smack on his dashboard. "Cheeky robot."
