CHAPTER 27

Home Again

Trevor enjoyed the alone time he got with Bumblebee more than anything. Even though he loved the other Autobots, time with his father felt more special than any other time he spent. If only because with Bumblebee he didn't have anything hanging over his head. He didn't have to be formal, or mature, or anything for that mater. With Bumblebee he knew he could be nothing but the kid that he still was, and he loved it. So the fact that he had surprised him with a trip back to Tranquility for a few days as the newbies got accustomed to life on base made him happy.

It was the first of two trips he'd be taking, the second of which was in two weeks. That was a bonding trip with Elita, and a diplomatic mission for Optimus rolled into one that he also looked forward to. But still, it felt good to get a chance to return to his old stomping grounds. "Feels good to be back, doesn't it?" Bumblebee draped his holoform's arm around his son's shoulders as they drove down the street. "So are you sure Sam's parents are cool with me just crashing with you guys?" He asked.

"They said they were fine when I called," Trevor replied with a nod, leaning against the mech. "Are you sure you're cool staying with them? I mean, they just offered, I'm sure we'd be just fine staying at a-."

"No, no it's fine," Bumblebee nuzzled his head with his holoform's cheek slightly. "I'm glad you'll get to spend some time with your family friends again," He added with a smile. "I know you won't say anything, but you've missed them."

Trevor couldn't deny that was true, because it very much was. The Witwicky's were family to him, and he knew that they would love Bumblebee too. After all, they had at least seemed to enjoy him for what time they got to know him when they were there for the funeral. Trevor pursed his lips as he thought of that, no doubt, while he was there, he would be seeing his parents grave, and it saddened him to think of that. Yet, he knew he wanted to, he had to see their graves and talk to them before he left, or he'd only find himself even sadder.

"You okay?" Trevor turned his head as Bumblebee looked at him. "You're really quiet all of a sudden."

"Just thinking of mom and dad," Trevor admitted. "We'll see them before we leave, right?"

Bumblebee smiled, running a hand along his arm gently. "Of course," Bumblebee replied. "Just tell me when you want to go and I'll drive you there," He added firmly. "We'll go together, and if it helps you can even cry on my shoulder," Trevor smiled as the mech came to a stop in front of the Witwicky home. "So, this is it, right?" Trevor nodded. "Thank Primus I remembered, I thought I wouldn't."

Trevor laughed as the door popped open and he climbed from his car form. His mind went elsewhere briefly, wondering what this trip would be like. He quietly feared that he may, much to his displeasure, run into Trent. A thought which sent a chill up his spine. "This is going to feel weird," Trevor admitted. "Last time I was only back for two days, but now..."

"I know," Bumblebee chuckled. "I can only imagine how weird it might feel."

Trevor was about to reply when the door flew open, signifying the fact that they had been heard from the house. Trevor looked back as Judy Witwicky strode across the yard, and knew any more conversation with Bumblebee would have to wait. "Trevor! I thought I heard you out here!" Judy turned her head to shout through the door. "Ron! They're here!" She rushed over. "Look at you! You look like you're sprouting up like a weed."
