I had a fangirl fit today because Bee abandoned his bestie Raf. So I came up with an explanation in case they don't remedy this situation later in RiD.

Transformers doesn't belong to me. Because if it did, Raf and Bee would be hanging out.

------------------

"I'm taking a day off. Strongarm, you're in charge." Bumblebee nods at his team.

Strongarm stares at him. "A day off? But lieutenant!"

Sideswipe groans, "Oh man. Why don't you ever put me or Fixit in charge?"

"And what about me?" Grimlock asks, an innocent expression on his face.

Bumblebee sighs, putting a hand to his face in an expression he learned during his time with Team Prime. He thinks that it's called a facepalm, but he's not sure. "Please, can you guys just TRY to get along? I'll be back tonight."

He hands Fixit a piece of paper. The mini-con stares at the coordinates and back at Bumblebee. "Are you pospospos- positive?"

"Yes." The leader almost growls. "Just open a groundbridge, Fixit."

The mini-con sighs. "Just doesn't seem the ideal place for a vacation." At Bee's glare, he chuckles nervously and opens the bridge.

Bumblebee transforms and drives through the bridge, activating his holoform as it closes behind him. He sighs, pulling into a parking spot in front of a small florist shop. "I hate today."

The lady at the counter runs to him and wraps her arms around him. "Oh Ben... I have it for you."

He nods, a sad smile on his face. "Thank you Illana."

"You're welcome, darling. It's not like you come here every year or anything." She hands him a bouquet of yellow and black roses.

Bee hands her a small wad of cash. She stares at it in shock. "Hey, I only spend money once a year. Let me help keep your shop running."

"That bouquet is not worth three hundred dollars you ridiculous robot!" Illana keeps her scolding to a whisper so as not to startle her other customers. "Take it back and pay me the proper amount right-"

Bumblebee smirks cheekily at her, kisses her forehead, and backs quickly through the door. Climbing into his true form, he heads towards the graveyard to see an old friend.

-----------------

This is going to be really sad.

It's also short.

And when it's done, I will add another chapter to Possibilities.

I promise!

Tell me what you think. 🙃
