"I say we try it!"

"'And why should we?'"

"It'll be fun!"

"'I don't know, (static) bell.'"

"Please, Bee? We only have one more night."

It was a little after five pm on Tuesday, the day before Bee was going to leave. Alise and Bee, her on his shoulder, were sitting out on the tarmac, the weather significantly cooler from the sun starting to go down. This was the first time all day the two had gotten the chance to be together alone. Even though Bee was on base, she still had to work. She was lucky that they didn't need her yesterday, being trapped in a jar and all for multiple hours. However, today she needed to interpret three calls, one from a French embassy and the other two from a Russian military branch. Considering most days they didn't need her at all, it was a very busy day.

Bee was there during the calls, watching her work from the sidelines out of view. He loved hearing her speak with such fluency in another language. He found that his favorite one to listen to her speak in was French, the words light and airy on her tongue. But he also liked listening to her speak Russian, because it was rougher, and amusing to watch her speak. It was in little moments like just watching her talk that made him sad when he realized he had to leave tomorrow.

The two were currently watching the sun start to set in the distance, and Alise had suggested something she wanted to try with Bee before he left... a car wash. The idea had been amusing her for awhile, and she in all honesty really wanted to do it.

When he didn't respond, she said, "Please?" looking up at him with a pleading face.

"'It's getting dark, and it's getting cold, and the nights are getting looong...'" he voiced to her. They were lyrics from a song she had never heard before. She sighed.

"Pretty please? For me?"

A sigh escaped from him. He knew he couldn't deny that request. He looked over at her.

"'Fine.'"

She squealed a little with happiness. "Yes! Thank you, Bee!" She gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"'Yeah, yeah, whatever,'" a man's voice said, as he placed her on the ground. Quickly racing off to get supplies before he could change his mind, she ran into the hanger, her mind going over what she would need. Going to the kitchen first, she got a large sponge and a bucket from underneath the sink. She then ran into Lennox, who told her where she could find some car wash soap. When she had these things, she went back out onto the tarmac, where he was still sitting. She then went over to the side of the base where the hose was kept, and she turned on the water and pulled it over to Bee. She smiled at him with an evil look in her eye.

"Camaro please!" she asked, her voice too sweet. Bee hesitated, but he did as she asked.

Alise filled up the bucket with the hose and took it in her hands. Then, without a second thought, she threw the icy water onto the Camaro. She heard the sound of a radio static spill from the speakers, and then the Camaro started to shake. Bee's engine revved.

"Alis-se!" he shouted in his own voice. Then he voiced, "'Lady, I'm freezing! I'm so cold!"

"Don't worry, Bee," she said with a laugh, as she filled another bucket. "It'll get better." She then splashed that bucket on him, too.

"That-t felt-t wors-se!" he yelled. Ignoring his statement, she put some of the cleaner onto the wet sponge, and squeezed it to make the suds appear. She then walked over to Bee and started to wash his hood. At first the Camaro squirmed under her touch, but then he relaxed and a sigh escaped his speakers. She laughed.

"That feel good?" she asked him with a smirk on her face. Another sigh was heard.

"Yes-sss," he said drowsily, and she laughed again.

"See, this isn't too bad," she commented amusingly, as she started to move throughout his vehicle form.

Alise washed every inch of the Camaro, and she wasn't surprised to find a lot of dirt and grim lodged in his tires and on his roof. Every time she washed these areas (and everywhere else for that matter), she was met with a sound of approval. Apparently being dirty in these places was bothering him for awhile, but he didn't want to say anything. When she scrubbed him spotless, she dropped the sponge back in the bucket and walked back over to the hose. Holding it in her hands, she faced him head-on.

"Belle..." he warned her, but she didn't care. She smiled and squeezed the trigger.

The water hit Bee with a fury, chilling every inch of him. Alise laughed as she watched Bee shake under the water. She got all the suds off of him with the hose, but even after she did, she continued to spray him. Bee tried to drive away from her, but not matter how far he got, she kept following him. At one point, however, he had enough. He stopped in his tracks and activated the holoform.

When the driver's seat door opened and he stepped out, Alise stopped spraying. The first thing she noticed about the holoform was that he was already dripping wet. Alise laughed when she saw him, but quickly put her hand over her mouth.

"You asked for it," Bee told her, and then he started to run after her. Squealing, she turned in the other direction. She was no match for Bee speed wise, so he caught up to her easily. When he did, he took the hose out of her hand, and started to spray her with it.

The cold made her scream, it chilling her to the bone. She tried to run away, but either the water or he would catch up to her. However, at one point Bee abandoned the hose, and ran at her, picking her up and spinning her around. Her screaming then turned to laughing, and Bee started to do the same. He took her over to the Camaro and laid her on the hood, him doing the same next to her. When they were eye level, she took his face in her hands and kissed him lovingly. When they parted, they smiled at each other. Alise laughed as Bee pushed her wet hair out of her face. Her face then fell slowly, something dawning on her.

"Bee."

"Yeah?"

"You're leaving tomorrow."

He didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at her for a moment, and then pulled her close for another kiss, this one longer and deeper than before. When they parted, he connected their foreheads.

"I know, belle, I know."

He then pulled her into his arms, and that's how the two stayed. Both dripping, both soaked, both knowing that by this time tomorrow, Bee would be gone.

"I don't really know what to say."

"Me neither."

"Well, I do know what I want to say, but I can't-"

Alise voice cracked before she could finish.

Later that night they had driven to the other side of the base on the beach where they spent their last night together. For awhile they talked, for awhile they listened to a French ratio station Bee tuned into that Alise liked, and for a bit they listened to the waves crash against the beach.

Alise did cry for a little. She didn't ball her eyes out, but a few tears came out without her saying anything. Bee, however, knew everything they meant. Seeing her like that, he just wanted to hold her, so he activated the holoform and wrapped his arms around her as the two laid in the backseat of the Camaro.

The two had then been lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves.

Bee woke up before she did, so he took the time to watch her as she slept, knowing it was going to be a long time before they could be like this again. The last few days had been prefect, despite the kidnapping and the midnight scare, because just being with her was perfect. It didn't matter if they were on the base or in the Witwicky garage or in the middle of the desert. If they had each other, everything was okay. With this in his head, he started to run his fingers through her hair as she slept.

He could've stayed in that position forever, but an apologetic com-link message from Ironhide told him that the plane for the US was taking off in an hour. Even after receiving this message, he waited another ten minutes before waking her up.

Now, the plane was ready for take off, the only thing left to get on being Bee. However, it seemed that leaving didn't get easier the second time around. The only true difference about their situation now was that he was the one leaving now instead of her.

Bee took her face in his hands.

"Alise, you can say it. What is it?"

She swallowed thickly. "Don't go."

His face dropped. "I-" He paused. He didn't know how to continue. If it was up to him, she would becoming with him back home, and her, Sam, and him would be watching TV in the garage with Mikaela by this time tomorrow. However, things weren't exactly going to work in his favor today.

"Don't," she told him, "continue. I know you have to, but..."

"That doesn't make it any easier." She nodded in agreement. In that moment, he pulled her into a tight, bone crushing hug. She returned it as best she could as tears ran down her face. She buried her face in his chest.

"I'll miss you," she choked out as best she could. With a sad look in his eyes, he took her chin in his hand.

"I'll miss you, too," he told her. "I love you, Lise. Stay safe, okay?" He then saw that she was wearing her necklace, and he toyed with it for a moment. "And remember to wear this. If you float off into the ocean, I want to be able to get you back."

She nodded, laughing a little. "I will. I love you, too." She sniffled. "Tell everyone I said hi."

He smiled softly, and then they kissed, long and deeply, making it last. They both felt those sparks surge their bodies one last time before they parted, knowing it would be the last time in a long time.

Alise had already said good bye to his bipedal self, him holding her for a long period of time without either of them saying anything. To her, that would be the form she would miss him most in. It was the way she had first met him and grew to love him, and as much as she loved the holoform, she would always love his metallic self the most.

The two, hands interlocked, turned around towards the group behind them. All the Autobots, even the twins and Jolt, had come to see him off, Lennox, Wash, and Epps, too. Ironhide bent down in front of the two.

"Go take care of your charge," 'Hide told him, meaning Sam. Bee nodded.

"As long as you take care of my Spark here."

Alise closed her eyes when he said that, tears flooding her eyes. 'Hide nodded again.

"Of course."

The rest of the Autobots said their goodbyes also, and so did the soldiers. When all was said and done, Bee turned back to Alise.

"I'll always be waiting," he told her. He then kissed her forehead, and squeezed her hand. After giving her one last affection, a kiss on the nose, he disappeared in a cloud of sparks. The Camaro was already on the plane, so when he left, the plane started to take off.

The group watched as the plane ran the runway of the base and then departed into the air, taking Alise's heart with it. Wash had come up behind her and pulled her into a hug as she started to let out quiet sobs. Alise knew that she shouldn't cry. She would be seeing him again in a few months. However, that still sounded too long for comfort.

But she knew she had a job to do, they both did. Her help the soldiers, and him protect Sam. In the long run they would be able to be together. Now was only the beginning.
