You were sitting outside your school listening to music and drawing a simple sketch in your notebook. You were waiting for your ride to come and pick you up.

"Hey (Y/N)!" You turned around to see one of your close friends, Rafael Esquivel.

You liked hanging out with Raf, you both had similar interest and you saw him as a cute little brother. He takes a seat next to you and you close your notebook.

"Hey Raf, waiting for your mom to come pick you up?" You asked and he nodded.

"Are you still gonna go stargazing tonight?" He asks you.

"Of course! The news station even said that we might be seeing falling stars tonight!" you replied excitedly.

Tonight, you had plans of stargazing with Raf. The stars were supposed to be at there clearest tonight and now with the chance of seeing falling stars you were even more excited.

"I'll even bring my dads telescope," you commented.

You heard a car honk and both you and Raf looked up to see the yellow and black camaro that Raf got picked up in. You never really knew who it was that Raf was leaving with, sure, he said it was a family friend but you were still suspicious.

"So will I ever be able to meet the family friend that picks you up from school?" You asked before he could leave. He started looking a little nervous before replying.

"Um, yeah. They're just...usually busy and...have to hurry me home," Raf said, not really convincing you.

"Well, if he wants, he can come star gazing with us tonight," you offered.

"He's...gonna be busy. But I'll still ask," Raf said.

"Okay. See you later tonight!" you waved to him as he walked to the camaro. You tried to see what the person looked like when Raf opened the door but Raf got into the car too quickly for you to get a glimpse.

'Hm, oh well,' you thought, resting your head on your hand.

Time Skip

It was 6:30 pm and you and Raf were setting up your spot for star gazing. You had rented a small campsite for the night. Raf had brought along some of his favorite snacks and you had brought a small tent and blanket for you and Raf to use.

"What if someone comes into the campsite if we fall asleep?" Raf asks looking a little worried.

"Never fear," you began, "I came prepared," and whipped out a pocket knife that you brought in case something did happen.

"That's good to know," Raf said and then went back to setting up.

Afterwards, you and Raf took turns looking through your telescope. When a couple hours had passed, you and Raf fell asleep, not knowing that something was lurking nearby.

You jumped awake when you heard a loud noise. Looking around, you saw nothing and hoped it was just your imagination. You were about to go back to sleep when you heard it again. This time, Raf did too as he set up and looked around too.

You went to where your pocket knife was and gripped it tightly, looking around and hoping that the noises would soon stop. Suddenly three black and purple jets flew towards you two, too close to the ground. They transformed into a giant robots, earning a scream from you.

"Decepticons!" Raf yelled, pulling your arm as you got to your feet.

"What!? You know what the thing is!?" You asked Raf as they walked closer to you.

What happened next left you even more shocked when a familiar black and yellow camaro drove towards the robots, then transformed into one too. You quickly pulled Raf away as the yellow and black robot charged the other three. You and Raf found a spot to hide behind a nearby ledge as you heard metal smashing against metal.

"This had got to be some kind of dream," you yelled-whispered.

"Don't worry (Y/N). Bumblebee won't hurt us," Raf said trying to comfort you.

"Wait, this whole time you've been dropped off and picked up from school by a transforming car?" You asked, not believing what was going on.

"Well, Bee's more than just a car that transforms into a robot. They're called Autobots. They're aliens from the planet Cybertron," Raf explained.

"And I'm hearing about this now!? I've never heard of these "Autobots" from anyone else," you said outrageously.

"Well I had to keep it a secret," Raf defended.

"Yeah, no kidding. People see something like this and they'd freak out and have heart attacks!" You said as you peeked to where the alien robots were fighting.

"Well you once said you wanted to see an alien," Raf joked.

"And I was thinking of seeing an alien like Stitch from the movie at that moment, not giant things that could kill all of us," you said as you watch "Bumblebee" take down the last Decepticon, or whatever Raf called it.

Raf got up and ran toward Bumblebee, leaving you at your hiding spot. You were a little hesitant to follow him, still unsure about trusting this autobot. You slowly walked towards Raf as he was currently talking to the giant robot.

"Bee, this is my friend (Y/N). (Y/N), this is Bee, my guardian," Raf explained.

"Nice...finally...meet you," Bee bleeped out.

"It's nice to meet you too, and thanks for..saving our lives just now," you said giving him a small smile. Bumblebee seemed shocked when you replied to him

"Wait you understand Bumblebee?" Raf questioned with wide eyes.

"Well...kind of. I understood a few words," you explained.

"Woah!...cool...like you," Bumblebee said happily.

"I'm sure I'll come to like you too," you said deciding that Bumblebee wasn't so bad.

"Aw man, how are we going to explain this to Optimus!" Raf groaned and Bumblebee let out and exaggerated beep and you giggled at there reactions.
