Chris practically had to bolt all the way from his house to 'Custom Cycles'. He had stayed up late to watch Optimus Prime, who was his Father, adress the nation and had slept in. It had been some sort of an important message that he had sadly, already forgotten. He really only watched those announcements to get a good look at his Father, seeing as he was by now sure he would most likely neer see him in real life again.
He sighed, and quietly made his way into the shop. Hoping neither Mikaela or her Father were there. The last thing he needed was to get yelled at for being late twice that week. He sighed, and went behind the counter where he belonged. Please god, cut me some slack. He thought to himself.

Mikaela was actually just taking a break in the back of the shop,now two years older then she had been before.She had met autobots while still in high school and had gotten into the car of the young man who was now her boyfriend,she had been in the middle of a great battle between them and the decepticons the all spark being destroyed.Then after that again she was caught in the middle of things with Sam,this time with the fallen so they had to go through alot of crap with that.Although that time Sam had died,and fearing she had lost him she didn't want to say goodbye to him.He was revived though,but now he was different but no matter what she still loves him.
Hearing something or someone come into the shop,she stayed at her spot in the chair watching Chris walk by trying to be sneaky.Shaking her head she decided to keep quiet,after all it had only been late twice.But someone had to give him a lecture,and at the moment her father had stepped out.She was quite proud of him,cleaning up his act and being a much better parent then he had before.Standing up she walked quietly behind Chris and tapped him on the shoulder,lightly.
"You should know by now,sneaking pass me is impossible".

Chris closed his eyes and bit his lip slightly. He knew he had to have used the excuse five hundred times by now. After all, Mikaela knew who and what he was. She was friends with his Dad, of course she had to know who he was. She would have figured it out afer a while anyway. Considering Chris really did look scarily simmilar to his Father, only in human form.
"Sorry 'Kaela." He commented simply, turning to face her "I watched Dad's late night broadcast last night. And it sort of... Slipped my mind I had work this morning."
He then added, this time giving off a small, and quiet yawn. "You can dock my pay, this was my fault." The look on his face was sincere as usual. He mirrored Optimus in personality often as well. He always tried to be fair, even though it somewhat got in the way of his 'new car' fund.

"It just slipped your mind,ah I see".
She could understand he was the son of Optimus,but staying up all night to watch the broadcast was a little too much.And being late for work well that was just tardy,but since he had a pretty good reason she would let it slide this time.It's not everyday someone had the son of a transformer in they're shop working,so this was kind of a bonus.Tucking some stray hair behind her ear she moved over to take a glance at his work station,stopping and looking back at him her mind still fuzzy from sleep.
"What is it you do here again".
Okay that must have sounded like a strange question to be asking,but lately she had been staying at the shop quite late these days and things would slip her mind now and then.Her eyes on Chris she listened as he spoke again,dock his pay nah she wouldn't do that to a long time friend and co-worker he was just lucky she was nicer then her father.
"It's okay,i'll let it slide this once".

"Handle the register and work on the bikes." Chris rolled his eyes a little when Mikaela asked what he did "Thanks." he replied at her not docking his pay.
He sighed, yawning a bit but turning to Mikaela, he grinned a bit. "So speaking of the 'bots, have you heard from Sam lately?" He figured he'd be polite and ask. He had only met Sam once, after the techno organic transformation. They weren't exactly friends like he and Mikaela were, but they were aquatinces.

Since Mikaela's father was off work today, as he was every Wednesday, Bee figured today would be a good time to swing by and see how Mikaela was doing. He was extremely protective of her, even more so ever since Sam almost died.
Bee had his bass bumping as he played 'A Milli' by Lil' Wayne. He honked his horn twice as he pulled into the shop itself, flashing his brights to signal his hello to Mikaela. He honked a few more times upon spotting Optimus' son, Chris, acknowledging his presence as well.

Chris jumped slightly turning his head to a golden comaro with black racing stripes. Back on Cybertron, he had called said-Comaro 'Uncle Bee' a habit he had never really gotten out of the habit of. "Hey Uncle Bee." He commented with a wave "How's it goin'?"

"Oh right right,like I said......".
Hearing the honk of the horn guessing it could only belong to one camaro she knew of,turning her body she gave a smile to Bumblebee then a little wave.Ever since Sam had died well almost died,then was brought back to life he had been more protective of her.Not that she didn't mind,besides she didn't want that sort of thing to happen again or worse happen to her.She loved Sam with all her heart,and having to have witnessed that tore her heart in two.Pushing those thoughts to the back of her mind for the moment she walked up to the camaro,running her fingers across the hood then stopping near the front window.
"Looks like you've been taking care of yourself well,it's nice to see you".
She then looked at Chris almost completely ignoring his question,had she heard from Sam lately no as a matter of fact.He had been a little distant from her for awhile,he hasn't returned most of her calls or her texts which made her worry.She understood he was a different person now,since being brought back from the dead.It was a freaky thing,but he loved her didn't he....why couldn't he open up to her more like he used to.
"No Chris,not lately".

Bee transformed into his Autobot form, sitting on one of the car lifts inside the garage so he didn't break anything. It may have been early in the day, but no one was there and he felt like stretching out. As long as he was careful not to break anything, it'd be fine.
Once he was transformed, he pointed to a chunk of missing paint on the panel on his leg, indicating that he'd like Mikaela to fix it for her. "Pleeeeeeeeease!" The clip was a little kid's voice, making it that much harder to say no.

"Man, I swear sometimes I wonder how Bee managed to get older then me." Chris jested in a whisper to Mikaela, rolling his eyes lightly "You want me to fix it, or have you got it?" He asked, he was willing to do it. But he knew Bumblebee mostly preffered Mikaela. After all, Chris wasn't the best at applying paint, though he wasn' the worst at it either.

"Oh you need a paint job,coming right up".
Shaking her head lightly she went to grab the right paint she would need,running her fingers along each paint can and whispering something under her breath.When she found the right can she pulled it off the shelf and then grabbed a paint brush going back over to Bumblebee,bending down she cracked open the top of the paint the fresh smell lifting into the air and around the shop.There was nothing like cracking the top of a fresh can of paint,and actually getting to use it was exciting for her everytime.
"Alright here we go,don't move".
Nice thing about stationary cycles and other machinery it didn't move around,when you tryed to paint it.But this was Bumblebee and one false move meant she would paint something else,instead of his leg and she was certain he didn't want that.Dipping the brush in the paint with one hand holding the end of the brush,she flicked her hair behind her shoulders so it wouldn't get in the way of her work.Standing up she began to paint Bee's leg,covering over the area where the old paint was before.

Bee waved his hands emphatically to dissuade Chris from his idea to do the paint job. He most certainly wanted Mikaela to do the paint job. No offense to Chris, but he was a noob and he didn't trust him with vacuuming his interior, let alone fixing a paint job. "Thank you." He used the same kid voice as Mikaela applied the cold liquid to his exterior, covering the scarred patch of paint from a previous battle.
He didn't like to have an scarring marks. It made him look weak that he had gotten hit.

Chris pretended to be focused on something else meanwhile checking out Mikaela. Ok, yeah, she was his good friend. But damn, she was hot. He couldn't help but check her out once in a while, as much as he was sure Bumblebee wouldn't approve. He stared for a minute before turning back and returning to 'doing his work'. Though as there were no customers there wasn't much work to do.

"We can't have you driving around with a bare spot,now can we".
She smiled up at Bumblebee as she continued to paint his leg,she was certain that Sam didn't want his car with a bare spot on it.Turning her head only a slight bit she managed to catch Chris looking at her,or rather looking her over.Was she such a huge turn on to guys,with her hot body and looks.Not saying anything though she went back to painting Bee's leg,a small smirk playing across her lips as she did so.As soon as she was done she put the brush to the side,and put the lid back on the paint before standing up.
"There you go,good as new".
She went over and put the paint back on the shelf,washing the brush off so that no paint would cake on it and make it hard to wash later on.In this shop she kept this clean and in order,not a thing out of place.

Bee noticed Chris looking Mikaela up and down, giving him a disapproving scowl as he shot a small plasma cannon blast next to his feet, not damaging anything, just scaring him. He should know better than to be ogling Sam's girlfriend, especially in front of him. For someone who was related to Optimus, Chris could be pretty dense sometimes.
Once Mikaela stepped away from him, Bee hopped off the car lift, keeping his head low to avoid destroying the shop. Things had been going to well for her and her father, he didn't want to set them back with unnecessary repairs to their shop. He smiled internally at the paint job, feeling 100 times better about the way he looked with his brand new shiny coat of paint.
