Chapter 18!
"Well sorry" Bee sassed and before Optimus could question the sass she quickly added, "Where were you headed?" She was trying to make small talk to ease the awkwardness coming mostly from her...
"Anywhere Jackie isn't" Optimus said with a shake of his head...
"Why?" she asked tilting her head...
"He won't shut up" optimus said as he guides bee around the corner only to see too fuming Mechs...
Her eyes widened as it was Soundwave and KO, she smiled sheepishly raising a hand in a wave, "hey mechs" she said nervously...
Both shot their heads up too look at her. "YOU! LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE! HE WONT STOP ASKING ME QUESTIONS!" Knockout yells at her...
"awesome!" Bee replied, "Serves you mechs right! See I told you I had something over you!" she said pointing at Soundwave...
Soundwave narrowed his eyes as his feeler started swaying back and forth behind him...
Although Bee was smiling, she saw the dangerous look. "Imma head off, something about Arcee wanting to talk?" she tried to find an excuse and went to turn away...
Well... tried being the appropriate word. The two mechs grabbed her and dragged her into the empty med bay with optimus following behind...
"Oh, c'mon not fair!" Bee cried wriggling around trying to get out of their grips...
Soundwave dead locked the door behind them and crossed his arms, waiting...
"What did you mean 'what really happened'?" Soundwave demanded...
"Nuh-uh" Bee said, she wasn't giving this up...
"Tell me or I strap you to the birth and increase primes lust levels to the extreme" soundwave threatens. "HEY!" Optimus shouts...
"Nope" Bee insisted, if he did try anything she was willing to fight him off long enough to get into the rafters, some spots he was too big to fit in so he wouldn't be able to follow her...
The very next thing Bee knew is that she was strapped to the birth...
"Scrap you move fast" Bee said bewildered, she had expected a little warning in his movements that way she could move but no...
"Answer the question Bumblebee" optimus said as he stares at the feeler inches away from his neck...
"Ugh... fine..." Bee caved, she wasn't happy but she had her fun, "Nothing much besides you latching onto KO and dragging him onto the berth."...
"Wait what?!" Soundwave froze as Knockout when bright red...
"Yep Ratchet said something about a deep connection or feeling causing your loopy state to latch on" Bee said making things worse...
"Hang on. Your gay?!" Optimus said to soundwave shocked...
Soundwave was blubbering out excuses trying to say, 'am not', but Bee stopped it with, "Admit it Soundwave! like everyone but you knows!"...
"Hang on! We didn't know!" Optimus and knockout said at the same time as knockout unstrapped Bee from the birth...
"Huh? well you've been living under a rock" Bee said as she jumped up...
"mmm" Bee hummed "Could be but come on, they get flustered every time they're near each other, can you not see it?" Bee questioned...
"I don't know what you're talking about" soundwave replied.
Bee shrugged, "meh whatever" she wanted to leave but the door was still locked...
Soundwave opened the doors and slipped out before her...
Bee walked out and headed for her room, she was hoping to barricade herself in before anything else happened today...
Two weeks later everyone had seen very little of soundwave and it seemed that he had reverted back to a mute...
Bee was fed up with it and went to the security room where he was and started banging on the door shouting, "Come on Soundwave let me talk at least!"...
The doors opened but that was the only reaction she got...
" It's a start. alright I'm sorry, I was torturing you and you know it! like I said petty." she pointed at herself, "I know that you're not actually gay and half the scrap I said was to get a reaction, I'm sorry..."
Soundwave was upgrading the system but stopped for a moment. "I know" was all she got...
"Okay?" Bee said surprised, she really thought that she'd have to say more. She moved into the room closing the door and sat on a chair next to him, "Then what's with you?" she asked quietly...
"I've just... never done that before. I've gone into low energon stasis plenty of times but... I've never had side effects like that" he answered as he continued with the upgrade...
"Maybe because this is all new, you had a connection from the past," Bee suggested, "KO's always been a friend for you, you both basically defected, maybe having everyone in the room was over-whelming even in your half-conscious state that you needed a bit of the past... but no matter what it was Soundwave you shouldn't worry about it so much" Bee finished, after reassuring the mech she was going to scold him for ignoring her for 2 weeks...
"Maybe" soundwave says...
"Feel better?" Bee asked hopefully with a silly grin on her face sitting close to Soundwave...
"Maybe if your system wasn't so scrap" soundwave grimaced...
"Yeah it is terrible, so now that you are feeling okay, besides technological frustrations... HOW DARE YOU IGNORE ME FOR 2 WEEKS!" Bee shouted at him...
"I didn't ignore you. I just prefer working when nobody is awake. Ask knockout. It's what I did on the nemesis" soundwave replied...
"Um locked door? not talking to me while I am awake even when I banged on the door? you don't sleep! so yeah you did ignore me!" Bee insisted...
"I do sleep actually. Just not in my room. And that door automatically locks, you should know that" soundwave shrugged...
"Okay you don't sleep often, and you could've unlocked the fragging door!" Bee whined crossing her arms and pouting...
"Ever thought that I just wasn't in here? And I sleep every day thank you!" Soundwave protests...
"You suck" Bee caved she no longer had anything to say, Soundwave may have had his reasons but he did ignore her. She was pouting like a sparkling as Soundwave continued his work...
soundwave slammed silent, though the grin on his face showed his relief...
Bee continued to pout for a while till she asked, "Why don't you sleep in your room?"...
"On the nemesis, I used a nest bed, as flyers do. But the only person that has one is knockout so I use his." Soundwave replied without thinking "so shouldn't have said that" he muttered after...
Bee smirked but she said nothing else about it. "So, what's the upgrade gonna do for our systems?" she asked curiously saving Soundwave from dwelling on his slip up...
"It's gonna mean I can do what I did on the nemesis." Soundwave replied, "ask knockout". Speak of the devil. Knockout walks in after that sentence...
"Ask me what?" he said as he took a seat next to Bee, "About what he did on the nemesis with the systems and stuff, so what'd he do?" she asked, turning to face him instead of Soundwave...
"Oh! Instead of staying at the console all day, he could control the ship from his processer. It also meant that he knew everything that happened. I mean everything. From who was where to who fragged who the night before, he could even give recordings of the pair fragging. It's scary" knockout muttered...
"TMI KO, but other than that, it sounds pretty efficient, think you'll get it working? I mean we're working with human tech so you know" Bee asked, she didn't like the human tech...
"Done!" Soundwave shouts and turns to them with a grin...
"Nice!" Bee high-fived Soundwave for the accomplishment, "You should tell the others, and full warn them of what will be happening now" she suggested...
"Why would I do that? I won't have blackmail on them then! I'll worn prime though" soundwave answered...
"eh whatever it was only a suggestion, oh but uh tell Optimus AND Ratch, you haven't had it yet but the wrenches of doom could come at any day, so be on his good side" Bee warned Soundwave...
"That's a good idea... I'll do that now" and soundwave ran off leaving Bee and KO behind...
"So, sup KO?" Bee asked swivelling in her chair to face him again...
"What's up with you?" KO asks suspiciously...
"What did I do now to make you suspicious of me?" Bee whined, "Do I have to apologise to you too?"
"No but you only say things like that when you're about to ask embarrassing questions" knockout dead panned...
"I do? huh! I was just trying to start a conversation" Bee told him truthfully, KO shrugged. "But now that you mention it, Soundwave shares your room? huh?" she asked with a cheeky smile...
"Who told you that?!" Knockout demands...
"Soundwave, it slipped out and he immediately said he shouldn't have said it but you know..." Bee shrugged, "It's not like I'm gonna tell anyone else, that's between you and Soundwave" she reassured KO...
