Rest
“Well the floor’s awful dirty. You take the berth, keep your circuits clean;” Droct ordered, as he pushed Bee towards the small hard berth.
Though he understood why the mech wanted him to stay off the floor, Bumblebee didn’t think it was right that he have the berth while his host slept on the dusty floor. They were both fairly small mechs, surely they could figure out a way to share the bunk. Grabbing the mech’s arm, Bee shook his head and patted the berth beside him.
“But it’d be to tight a fit. I might damage your circuits if we try to both cram ourselves on it;” the mech protested. He was obviously more concerned with his guest’s welfare, than his own.
But Bee wouldn’t be swayed, his just shrugged and patted the bunk again. He heard Droct sigh, and could sense the mech look at him in exasperation. Finally, the mech sat down next to him.
“You know, for a mech that can’t talk, you sure are determined to get your way,” Droct chided. But Bee could here the distinct ring of amusement in his soft voice.
The tarp-covered mech just smiled and nodded his agreement to Droct’s statement.
After much jostling, the two small mechs figured out a reasonably comfortable way to share the bunk. Lying on his side, Droct crammed his back up against the wall. Bee lay on his side, with his back pressed tightly against the other mech. Feeling the garbage mech put his arm protectively over his side, Bee smiled. It felt good to feel safe again.
He felt Droct sigh, “You sure are a piece of work, Yellow. All beat up and such, yet still seem to have some spirit left.” The mech patted him lightly on his side, as if congratulating him on being a tough mech.
Bee nodded, patting Droct’s arm in agreement. He liked it when the mech talked, for Droct tended to make comments that Bee could answer with nods and shakes of his head. That way, it didn’t seem like such a one-sided conversation.
He could sense Droct’s smile to his nod, the mech shifting slightly, bringing him tighter against his tarp-covered back. “I was being honest Yellow, when I said that no one’d hurt you here. You trust me,” he said with conviction, almost like he’d consider protecting Bee with his own life now.
Again, Bee nodded. Reaching up, he squeezed the mech’s arm which lay over him. Wrapping his fingers around Droct’s forearm, he pulled so that Droct now had his hand against Bee’s chest. He wanted the mech to understand he felt safe here.
Droct squeezed his hand in reply. “I’m sorry it’s going to take a while to fix you up. You seem like a good mech, I wish I could afford all the parts you need.”
The tarp-covered mech really wished that Droct would quite apologizing for things he couldn’t help! Reaching his hand back, Bee patted Droct’s threadbare tires. Then he patted Droct’s hand against his tarped chest, shaking his head.
“Ah, I can survive on these old things. They still get me where I’m going,” Droct said softly, understanding what Bee was trying to say.
Again, Bee patted his tires, then his own chest and shook his head.
Droct patted his side, “Nah, I can wait. You need optics and protective armor first. So you don’t get damaged worse.”
Bee shook his head again, it just wasn’t right!
Droct chuckled, “You are a persistent mech. But I’m not budging on this one.”
Sagging unhappily against him, Bee made his disappointment obvious.
Squeezing his hand, the gentle mech rubbed his fingers over Bee’s palm. “Tell ya what, if you’re so determined about my tires, once we get your optics in. I’ll teach ya which alloys will bring us the most funds. Then we can get your armor, and later, my tires – a little faster.”
Satisfied with the compromise, Bee promised himself he’d try and learn quickly, for he owed his new friend at least that much!
Then both of them went into defragmentation.

Rebooting, Bee felt the comforting press of his new friend against his back. It was a little disconcerting to still have the sensation of barely concealed circuits pressing against the armor of another mech, but he knew that Droct wouldn’t hurt him like that. Shifting a little, he pressed tighter against the mech. He had rarely had the opportunity to wake up in the arms of another, and even though Droct was just a friend, it felt good.
His thoughts wandered back to the Autobots. He wondered if they were still searching for him, or if they now thought he was dead. A vision of him getting off a shuttle back on Earth, unexpected by his friends, and their predictable reactions – filled him with warmth.
For now that he lay, safe in the gentle garbage mech’s arms, he knew with certainty that he’d see his friends again! And he’d be sure to surprise T’ran, and pay Droct back for everything he’d bought to repair him.
He felt Droct begin to stir. The mech unconsciously rubbed his fingers across the tarp’s surface, not realizing that he caused sensations to run through Bee’s barely concealed grids. Fully waking, the mech realized what he’d done as he felt the yellow mech shiver slightly. Stammering his apologies, he swiftly sat up and got off the bunk.
Bumblebee wished the damned mech would quit apologizing for everything! It hadn’t really bothered him. Actually, it had felt good.
