âAlright, alright. Iâm on my way.â The petite blonde jingled her keys for the person on the phone, a humorless laugh gracing her features as she rolled her eyes in response to whatever was said. âYeah, bye,â and with a sigh she was shoving her phone into her back pocket, snatching up her purse as she headed for her garage.
She honestly didnât want to go to brunch, but her therapist wanted her out doing more things with friends. Supposedly it would help keep her out of her head? Melody didnât really buy it, but it was the thought of $3 mimosas that had her agreeing to go out.
Stepping into the garage, she paused, brows pulling together in confusion. Was her car running? It certainly sounded that way and she wondered if there was a short somewhere in the old Bugâs wiring. God, she hoped not. Sheâd just bought the damn thing! She couldnât afford to be putting it in the garage already!
âPlease donât let this be a huge fucking mistake,â she mumbled as she reached for the driver side door.
ALL MOVEMENTS SLOWED TO A HALT AS THE GARAGE DOOR OPENED, revealing a petite, blonde woman ; that was not what he had been expected. then again, none of this was what he had been expected. memory processors still trying to play CATCH UP, to figure out what had happened to him. initial scans do not pick up anything abnormal from the woman, she is HUMAN. but humans can be bad ; he had met enough to know this.
as she reaches for his door, Bumblebee only has a MOMENTÂ to come to a decision. experience told him to wait ;Â emotions told him to act. the biggest blank in his memory was what LEAD HIMÂ to this situation, and he needed information. now.
revving his engine, the frame of his alt form ( which had CHANGED ; he could feel the difference is shape and size ) SHAKING with it, Bumblebee flashed his headlights. an indication to get back. he did not trust this human, not IMMEDIATELY, but Optimusâ motto against HARMING HUMANS rang loudly in his ears ; he didnât want to hurt her, anyway.
when he was sure that she was far enough away, he began to shift. the CLANGINGÂ of metal as the inconspicuous Bug transformed, until Bumblebee was kneeling in the middle of the garage, a sense of DEJA VUÂ creeping up on him.
