She dragged herself down the stairs to her kitchen and B-lined for the coffee pot. Grabbing a hot cup of coffee, the bills and her checkbook that sat waiting for her from the night before; she sat down at the kitchen table and started to go through the annoyingly large pile of bills. Looking through the electric bill and the random clumps of numbers till she saw what she owed. The bill statement showed that her household used six times as much compared to the mouth before. Instead of cussing up a storm, she sighed in frustration; for the simple fact that she was expecting such an increase in her electric bill. She had six new roommates now; all formerly Decepticons before being turned into humans for some unknown reason. But not just any Decepticons mind you, Seekers.
Speaking of Seekers, one came walking down the same stairs that she did earlier. Turning her head to see which Decepti-jet was up for the day; she saw an attractive male with warm brown eyes and short brown hair wearing a medium blue T-shirt and blue jeans. She immediately recognized him as Thundercracker.
“Morning, Thundercracker.” She mumbled to him before she took a sip of coffee and returning to the paying of the bills.
“Morning, Erica.” He said with a rather chipper tone while grabbing himself a cup of coffee, “Sleep well?”
She just stared at him in a ‘What do you think’ look as he walked to the opposite end of the kitchen table facing her.
“I’m guessing by the unhappy look on your face that Starscream stole the covers again.” Said Thundercracker with a small smile on his face.
“Yep, that’s ‘Burrito Boy’ for ya.” Erica lightly snickered about the now infamous name she gave Starscream when he rapped his body in the top bed sheet and comforters like a burrito.
Looking into his coffee cup, Thundercracker decided it was safer to change the subject to something other than her and Starscream’s sleeping arrangements. “So,” looking at the pile of papers in front of him that Erica was working on, “what are you doing?”
“I’m paying bills.” She said as she ripped out the last check from her checkbook.
“Oh.” Then there was a small look of concern on his face.
Noticing his facial expression as tiny look of guilt; Erica smiled at him and said, “Don’t worry about it TC. My bank account can handle paying a few bills.” Putting the check in the envelope, she then licked it, scribbled on it and put a stamp on it. Grabbing all the out going bills, Erica got up and walked outside towards the mail box.
Seeing her leave, Thundercracker took the electric bill and looked at it and cringed at what he saw. He knew that when she volunteered to help him and his fellow Seekers out with room and board that her bills would increase exponentially; but not this much. He then shook his head a little and smiled. Thundercracker knew that if she really wanted, Erica could kick them all out and have them try to fend for themselves out on the streets; and to him, she had every right to so. But what Thundercracker experienced the last two and a half weeks, this human they were living with didn’t seem to be that kind of person. But then again, she did have her moments. Especially when Starscream was involved.
“What ya readin’ TC?”
Looking up, Thundercracker saw a young man in his mid to late twenties with short black hair and violet eyes; and wearing nothing but black jeans and a smile. Thundercracker quickly recognized this human male as his best friend and wing mate, Skywarp.
“Morning, kid.”
Walking to the refrigerator and opening it to grab the last of the juice boxes. “Hay! Watch who you’re calling kid, gramps!” Said Skywarp with a snicker.
Thundercracker playfully snapped back, “I don’t look a day over thirty-five!”
“Thirty-five million you mean.” Said Skywarp with a smartassed smile on his face as he walked to the table and took a seat. “What are you readin’ TC?”
“Power bill and it’s not pretty.” Moped Thundercracker as he held the bill in front of Skywarp’s face.
Skywarp started to read the amount of said bill and quickly spitted out his juice and almost hit Starscream who was walking passed him to the coffee pot.
“Hay! Watch where you’re aiming Skywarp!” Snapped Starscream.
Standing up till he was nose to nose with Starscream, Skywarp then said, “You want to make something of it Screamer!”
“Bring it punk!”
Jumping between them before Skywarp and Starscream started throwing punches at each other, Thundercracker tried to calm both of his wing mates down. “Look, fellas, we don’t need to do this. This is Erica’s house and we’re the guests here and I don’t think she will be too happy if you two started fighting and trashed it.”
Starscream than snapped back at Thundercracker, “Who the fuck cares!”
“I DO Burrito Boy!” said Erica as she bopped the back of his raven haired head with the Wednesday paper. “Hate to tell you Starscream, but my house, my rules or you’re out on the street. Kappeash!”
All Starscream could do is grumble at the woman as he got his cup of coffee. He then sat down at the table as he watched Erica gather the bills together and pulled out the grocery store inserts from the paper. This was now known as the Wednesday morning routine; Erica would look at the sales, write down a shopping list and then she would have two Seekers go join her in the shopping later that day. Looking back at Starscream, Erica could tell that he was having one of his usual internal temper tantrums and knew I would be best to get Skywarp out of his hair for a while.
“Sky, you just volunteered to come with me today.” Said Erica.
Skywarp just stared at her blankly of a minute and said, “I did?” Then seeing Erica lightly nudged her head toward the direction of the fuming Starscream; he then piped up, “Oh, I did! Sure, no prob. Who else is coming with?”
“I’ll go.” Said a really deep voice that was heard coming down the stairs. Looking at who spoke to them; they saw a tall male with golden-blond hair, deep blue eyes and dressed in a deep blue t-shirt and black jeans. Every one in the dining room recognized him as the conehead seeker Dirge.
Erica then smiled and stated, “Good. I have my help for the shopping. Now all I need to do is…”
Then the phone began to ring.
“I got it.” Said Dirge as he picked up the phone from the receiver. “Hello, Witwicky residence, Dirge speaking, may I ask whose calling?” Then hearing the person on the other end of the line talk for a bit, Dirge then handed the phone over to Erica. “It’s Carly. She said something about Daniel having a half day at school and no one will be home.”
“Hay, Carly. What’s up?” Erica asked after grabbing the phone from Dirge. “Uh-huh. No propblamo, Danny can come right strait here. I got shopping to do though and might not be back in time when Danny gets here, but Thundercracker will be.”
Thundercracker then gave Erica a real inquisitive look and thought to himself, ‘I think I got drafted for something.’
“Okay, it’s settled then. If I’m not here in time for Danny to show, Thundercracker can baby-sit. Sounds like a plan. See you when you pick him up Carly. Bye.” Handing the phone back to Dirge so he can put it back on the receiver, Erica looked at Thundercracker with a big smile. A smile that Thundercracker wasn’t to thrilled with.
Letting out a big sigh, Thundercracker then asked, “What in the hell did I get drafted for?”
“Oh, nothing much, just babysitting Daniel that’s all till I get back from shopping with Dirge and Skywarp, that’s all.” She said.
“I see.” Then Thundercracker asked, “What do you want me to do with the kid while he’s here?”
“Help him with his homework.” Said Erica as she stared to stand to go get ready to go shopping. “He seems to be having some problems in math. You can help him with that.”
“Do I look like an arithmetic machine to you?” Thundercracker remarked in such a way that it left him wide open to Erica’s next statement.
“Last time I checked you were a machine, Thundercracker, once!” bellowed Erica as she walked up the stairs to her bedroom to get dressed.
“Ouch” said both Dirge and Skywarp in unison, while Starscream started to laugh at Erica’s remark and almost falling out of the chair he was sitting on.
******************************************
A short time later after everyone was dressed and ready to go, Skywarp and Dirge was waiting by Erica’s minivan when they saw Erica walk to them. She was wearing a purple baby-T, a short black denim skirt with matching black denim jacket and purple flats. The sides of her long black hair where put in a ponytail to keep it out of her emerald green eyes.
“Are we all ready to go?” she asked as she unlocked the doors to the minivan.
“Shotgun!” said Skywarp as he quickly sat in the front passenger’s seat be for Dirge had an opportunity to snag it for himself.
“Hay! No fair, I wanted to sit in front!” snarled Dirge at Skywarp who firmly sat in the passenger seat and wasn’t about ready to move from it.
Skywarp started to laugh and said, “I called it and you loose blondie! The better mech got the seat. Deal with it!”
Dirge was slowly fuming and was about to punch Skywarp for calling him blondie. “Why you cocky little…”
“Oh will you just sit in the back Dirge. You can sit in front on our way back home and Skywarp can sit in back. Agreed.” Said Erica in an authoritative tone which mad the two Seekers flinch slightly.
After all was said and done, everybody was in the minivan and they drove off to go shopping. It was an overly quiet drive to the supermarket; but thankfully the mood lightened quite a bit when they arrived at Super Eddy’s supermarket parking lot. The parking lot was almost deserted and that was a good thing; until Erica noticed a couple of cars that she immediately recognized.
The cars weren’t Autobots. Autobots she could handle. Or cop cars ether, because she wasn’t in any trouble legally. The cars she recognized looked like they belonged to two of her exboyfriends. She quietly prayed to herself that she was ether mistaken or if they were her ex’s cars that they sold them to other people and those people were doing their shopping instead of her ex’s.
Seeing her facial expression change from bad to worse, Dirge then asked Erica what was wrong. “What’s wrong?”
What do you mean what’s wrong?” replied Skywarp.
“I didn’t ask you. I asked her what’s wrong.”
Looking at Erica, Skywarp knew then what Dirge meant. “Okay, Ricky, what’s up with you all of a sudden?”
Parking the minivan in a parking space and stopping it, she then sighed and started to spill the beans. “You see that black car and the red car in the parking lot here. Well they might belong to a couple of my exboyfriends and I want nothing to do with ether of them. So if they try anything, I give both of you permission to pretend to be my boyfriends and you can do anything short of fighting with them or having sex with me in public. Is that understood? ” Said Erica as she, Dirge and Skywarp got out of the minivan.
Dirge and Skywarp just looked at each other and smiled with big chestier cat grins on their faces, just hoping that it was her two exboyfriends there shopping inside and they do spot Erica with them around. It was going to be a fun day for Skywarp and Dirge. That was for sure.
**********************************
Meanwhile back at Erica’s house, the doorbell rang. “I’ll get it!” screamed Thrust who was closest to the front door at the time. Opening the door, Thrust saw a young boy waiting for someone to answer. “Oh, you must be Danny. Come right on in. We’re expecting you.”
Looking at the redheaded, green eyed man in his mid to late twenties with freckles on his face wearing a dark red t-shirt and black jeans, Daniel then asked, “And which Decepticon jet are you?”
“I’m Thrust.” The redhead Seeker replied.
Then Daniel remembered who Thrust use to look like. “Oh, that’s right. The maroon guy.”
That’s when Starscream busted out in laughter from the other room, “The maroon guy! That’s great!”
“Shut up, Starscream!” snapped Thrust as he and Daniel walked into the kitchen to see a blonde haired man in his late twenties to early thirties with red eyes wearing a white t-shirt and white jeans. “You know Ramjet.”
“Hi.” said Daniel.
“Yo!” said Ramjet with a smile as he waved hello to the boy.
Coming out of the bathroom was Thundercracker, who saw Thrust with a young human boy. “So you must Danny. I’m Thundercracker.”
“So where is Erica?” Asked Daniel as he was taking off his backpack and jacket.
“She went grocery shopping with Dirge and Skywarp.” Said Thundercracker.
“Oh, okay.” Said Danny as he was taking out his school books, paper and what ever other odds and ends that he needed to do his homework.
Seeing the large pile of books that was now on the table, Thundercracker said, “Well Erica said something about you having a problem with math?”
“Oh, yeah. That I am.” Sighed the boy. “I can’t seem to get the grasp of adding and subtracting numbers with exponents lager than a square or a cube. It’s all so darn confusing.”
“I know how you feel,” said Thrust, “I’m still trying to figure out how to work Erica’s crazy washing machine.”
“Speaking of which, don’t you have to wash your clothes.” Said Ramjet pointing towards the closet with the folding double doors where the washer and dryer where kept.
Taking a really deep sigh and lifting his head towards the ceiling as he walked to the said closet, “Why me?” said Thrust as he opened the laundry closet doors and grabbed a laundry basket, turned back around to go upstairs to his and Ramjet’s room to gather his dirty clothes.
*******************************
Back at Super Eddy’s; Erica, Dirge and Skywarp where going up and down the isles. With Erica going through the grocery list and Dirge and Skywarp going to get said items from the list. As she turned into one isle, she saw her exboyfriend Scott. Hoping to avoid him, she tried to quickly back out of the isle, but it was too late. Scott saw her.
“Well, well, well. Look who we have here.” Said Scott in a semi-shocked way, “Looking good sweets. How’s life been treating you?”
“Fine. And you?” Erica said coldly.
Sensing the ice cold reception, Scott then replied, “What’s wrong Ricky? Don’t you like me any more?”
Then in an icy tone, she said, “Sorry, Scott, but I’m taken.”
“Oh, really now.” Said Scott as he was side by side with Erica and was starting to lean towards her, “How ‘bout a kiss for old times sake?”
Before she could say no to him, Skywarp walked up just in the nick of time. “Um, I don’t know who you are buddy, but no one macks on my girl but me.” Skywarp remarked coldly at Scott.
Scott quickly backed away from Erica and said, “Who in the fuck are you?”
“Like I told you earlier Scott, I’m taken. This is my boyfriend Skyler. Sky, this is my exboyfriend, Scott.” Erica said in a cocky tone reminiscent of Starscream.
“Oh.” Scott quietly said.
Walking behind to Erica, Skywarp put his left arm around her waist and showed her the can of chocolate whip cream that was on the list. “For later baby.” Said Skywarp as he put the can in the shopping cart. The Skywarp slowly started to kiss and nibble Erica’s neck in front of a now livid Scott, who was quickly leaving the isle heading towards the checkout counter and right past Dirge who saw everything.
Walking up to Skywarp and Erica, Dirge lowered a couple of boxes of Happy’Os in the cart and said, “Can I film you two later using the whip cream on each other? Because Megatron and Optimus Prime would love to watch that dirty movie.”
“Very funny Dirge.” Said Skywarp as he let go of Erica.
All Erica did was giggle.
*******************************
Back at Erica’s place, Starscream was out in the garage working on some pet project of his, Thundercracker was helping Daniel with is math homework, Ramjet was making hotdogs and macaroni and cheese for lunch, while Thrust was starting a load of laundry.
“There. That should do it.” Said Thrust as he closed the laundry closet doors behind him and proceeded to walk up to the kitchen table. Sitting down at the table, Thrust looked at the pile of school books that were Danny’s and grabbed one that caught his interest. “You don’t mind if I have a look at you’re books, do ya kid?” asked Thrust.
Seeing what book Thrust grabbed, Daniel saw it was his schools library book on F-15 Eagle fighter jets. Giving a big smile to him, Daniel then said, “You should like that book. It’s about F-15 fighter jets. I’m suppose to do a research paper on them.”
“Cool.” Said Thrust as he started to read the book.
After about ten to fifteen minutes into doing his math, Danny started to hear a weird kuchunking sound coming from the laundry closet. Looking at the closet, he saw what looked like a small wet spot on the carpet in front of the closet door. Handing Daniel his bowl and cut up hotdogs mix with mac and cheese, Ramjet also saw the wet spot as well as what looked like foam coming out of the lower closet door.
“Should that be happening?” asked Ramjet to Daniel.
“Ah, no.” said Daniel shaking his head.
Turning around to see what Ramjet and Daniel were talking about, Thundercracker saw more and more white foam coming out of the cracks in the closet doors. “Thrust, you might want to check your clothes.”
“Why? Is there something wrong?” asked the bewildered Seeker. Then seeing the foam, Thrust ran to the closet and opened the doors.
“Oh shit!” screamed Thrust as he opened closet doors the front of the laundry closet exploded with laundry detergent foam covering the only walkway to the garage where Starscream was.
“Thrust you flippin’ iggit! Yelled Ramjet as he ran to help his wing mate.
Daniel was trying hard not to laugh when he asked Thrust, “How much soap did you use?”
“A whole box!” screamed Thrust as he tried to open the still spinning washer, “Why? How much was I suppose to use?”
“A whole box! You never use a whole box to do one load of laundry!” snapped Thundercracker as he saw Ramjet starting to wade though the foam toward Thrust.
“Thundercracker, call Erica on her cell phone and tell her to by more laundry soap while I’ll go out side to the garage and get the wet/dry vac and Starscream.” Said Danny as he ran out side towards Starscream and the garage.
*******************************
Skywarp was getting the last item on the list while Dirge was coming back with his. “A couple of large frozen turkeys, just as you requested.” Said Dirge as he place both birds on the bottom of the grocery cart, “Is there anything else you ask of me?”
That’s when Erica shoved a small piece of paper with a sort note that said, ‘Exboyfriend with boyfriend stealing slut at the end of the isle. Make it look convincing.’
After quickly reading the note, Dirge looked toward the end of isle and saw a man with short brown hair with what looked like the poster child for dumb blonde jokes. Dirge looked back up at Erica and smiled at her. She on the other had gave him a very inquisitive look as she saw him starting to stand in front of her, but before he completely stood up, Dirge quickly kissed he belly.
“What are you up to?” she asked Dirge as her ex and his girlfriend started walking by.
“I was thinking it was the right time to start having children.” Said Dirge as he wrapped his arms around Erica’s waist.
Erica was caught off guard by Dirge’s remark, “Children? Us?”
“Yes,” continued Dirge in a very sincere tone, “You, me, us, babies.”
“Well, I…” Was all Erica got to say before Dirge kissed her on the lips.
The blonde woman with Erica’s exboyfriend heard everything and started to complain to her guy. “Tony, I want to have a baby.”
“What? Mitzy are you sure?” said Tony as he and Mitzy walked out of the isle and down the next.
“Yes, I want one. I want to have a baby before that cunt Erica does.” Wined Mitzy.
“But what about the responsibility, the money? I don’t think it’s a good idea.”
Said Tony who was trying his damnedest to convince her otherwise.
As the baby argument between Mitzy and Tony continued to be heard throughout the store isles, Skywarp walk up to Dirge and Erica, who where still kissing, and put a few loafs of bread in the cart. “What is going on with the guy with the crazy blonde chick and what is going on with you two?”
Before Erica could answer him, her cell phone rang. On the other end was Thundercracker. “Hay, TC, what’s up? Why? I bought some two weeks ago. HE DID WHAT? He had better have that cleaned up before we get home and if he brakes it I’ll brake him! Bye, Thundercracker.”
“What’s wrong?” asked Skywarp and Dirge in unison.
Pinching the bridge of her nose, she then said, “We have to go and get laundry detergent now, thanks to Thrust.”
Skywarp’s eyes widened, “He didn’t.”
“The whole box for one load.” She sighed.
“I’ll get it.” Said Dirge as he ran to get the laundry soap.
All Skywarp could do was shake his head as he stated to laugh.
