After giving the team a meal, I was left with the whole team's load of dishes to wash...oh well, at least they enjoyed the food. Agent Fowler bid his goodbyes after the lunch, having some stuff to settle at the Pentagon.
Miko was helping the team to get use with the house while I do the dishes. Humming softly, I swayed my hips as I cleaned the bowls and plates, not noticing a figure coming up behind me.
"Stars when you shine, you know how I feel! Scent of the pine, you know how I feel!" I sang, smiling and working through the dishes. "It's a new dawn, it's a new day, for me....and I'm feeling...good~" I continued, rocking my hips and sliding the plates onto the cleaning racks.
"You have a beautiful voice (Y/N). I believe you are a femme with many talents."
"AAAAAAHH!" I screamed, dropping the slippery cutleries in the sink. Thank God I wasn't holding the ceramic bowls!
"Ah, you're easily spook too. I've...forgotten about that detail." Optimus said, but his smirk said otherwise. I gave him a dirty look before sprinkling some water at his face.
"You scare me Optimus!" I huffed, turning back to deal with my chores. The Prime chuckled deeply, wiping the water off and stood by my side for a moment, silently observing me washing before picking one up and mimicking my moves.
"Hey, I'll do it." I said, but the Prime was insistant.
"May I be off assistance, please?" he asked, giving me those damn puppy eyes again. Sighing, I let him help me with the mountain of dishes.
...He was sloppy, but he had the spirit.
"Here, this is how you do the dishes." I said, picking up one plate and sponged it, wiping away the dirt before rinsing it away. Optimus's eyes lit up and he followed my steps. Within moments, we were done cleaning.
Now, onto wiping them and placing back onto the cupboards. Taking a piece of cloth, I handed the Prime one cloth and showed him how to properly dry the utensils and storing them in the right place. Again, the mech was a fast learner and did the job perfectly.
Fuck, there goes another reason to love this man.
"Thank you, Optimus. Didn't you look around the house with Miko?" I said. Optimus shook his head and took my hands, winking at me as the giant man look down at me.
"No, I was hoping that it would be you doing the honors, (Y/N)." he smoothly said. His blue eyes seemed to be glowing, must be a trick of light. My breath got caught and all I could do was to stare like a fool at the Greek God before me.
GODDAMN IT, PRIME!
Feeling a little brave, I accepted his hold and led him out of the kitchen, ready to give him a tour.
"Shall we?" I replied, smiling at the Prime. My smile was instantly wiped off from my face when a certain Japanese teen's phone snapshot sound brought me out of sight from the dazzling man before me.
"MIKO NAKADAI I'M GOING TO COOK YOU FOR DINNER!" I yelled, dropping Optimus's hands and went to chase after that little slagger. Miko let out a shriek and ran away, phone in hands.
"MOVE IT!" She yelled, dashing up to the stairs. I was absolutely pissed with the girl that I have forgotten about the other guest in my house, my focus fully shifted to the pig-tail girl.
She's about to be served on the tables tonight!
"GET BACK HERE!" I said furiously, jumping over the couch. Using my hands, I swung over the furniture and flew up to the stairs, effectively catching up with the teen.
"DELETE THAT FOOTAGE!" I seethed, taking two steps at a time. I was hot on her tail before she gave up, turning back towards me as she found herself in a dead end.
"B-But you two are cute!" she said and I raised my hands, ready to beat the crap out of her.

.
Tsk.
"...send me a pic, then you delete it. GOT IT?" I hissed, and Miko beamed. Doing as she was told, she sent over the pic before erasing it from her phone.
"Aww... I wanted to put that pic in my scrapbook." She whined. I bopped her head, ignoring her glares as reality dawned onto me.
"I JUST MADE A FOOL OF MYSELF IN FRONT OF THE TEAM!" I screeched, gripping Miko's shoulders and groaned loudly. Optimus and the team came up and leaned against the staircase, the Prime giving me a shocked look.
"Damn you, Miko..." the aforementioned person was gone in a flash, running towards her guardian who was sighing at her behaviour.
"Where did ya learn those moves?" Arcee asked, raising an eyebrow at me.
"I uh-"
"(Y/N) use to do stunt moves as a parttime job! Now, she's a full-time actress!" Miko cut me off, smiling at the lady.
"Impressive." Jack noted. I groaned even louder and glared at Miko. Switching to English, I gave up trying to maintain my first impression with the team and made an empty threat towards Miko.
There goes my kind and sweet manners the Prime assumed earlier. Screw you, Miko! I'm trying to impress the man, you dense shit!
"I'm so going to roast you for dinner, Miko."
The latter waved me off, walking downstairs with her guardian shaking his helm in reply.
The days with Miko are going to be a handful, I can feel it.

I was right. Apparently, it was now summer holidays and the kids got the agreement from their parents to hang out in my place as long as they want. Great!
...Well, except for the Miko part; she was still the annoying yet lovable brat.
I had a few extra rooms and I split the team accordingly. Bumblebee and Bulkhead took the downstairs room while Arcee had a small room upstairs. Ratchet and Optimus shared a room upstairs while Jack and Raf can have the third room upstairs. Miko got a small room downstairs, but I have doubts that the kids will stay long...right?
Eh, don't care.
Fortunately, my house was big and I had a few rooms more to spare. I'm not wealthy per se, but I'm living comfortably. I had a house in Jasper with a few neighbours, but you'd have to walk a few meters before you can meet one.
It's kind of like a bungalow estate, but I don't know; I'm not into these stuffs. I saw the place was comfy, safe and the price was affordable, so I bought it. Trust me, I worked hard to buy this house, saving up my money to pay them fully and renovate it.
I'm not born with a silver spoon, so I had to start from the bottom.
It was three days since the bots came, and I'm pretty sure the kids are probably bored to death right now. My house isn't exactly full of stuff, just the usual furnishing. Maybe I'll check my storage room later for any old console games, I don't know if they still worked.
I had a quick ad photoshoot today so I left a note on the table, hoping the team wouldn't panic of my disappearance.
"Hey guys, I'm off to work today! Foods are in the fridge, be back by noon.
-(Y/N)."
Taping it to the fridge door, I headed off.

Timeskip
"That's it for today! Thank you so much, (Y/N)! It's an honour for us to be able to have you for today's shooting!" the cameraman said, shaking my hands with gratitude.
"Likewise, sir. Have a good day!" I replied, beaming at the guy before leaving. Sighing, I checked my watch for the time-
It was 5pm. Shit.
"OH FUCK, IT'S LATE!" I cursed and made a dash to the nearest bus station. I didn't take the car today, just in case the team needs it. I tapped on my feet as I waited for the transport, hoping it would arrive soon. I tried to call the team, but my phone had been out due to me forgetting to charge it the night before.
Damn it (Y/N), you're getting forgetful!
Sighing again, I decided to sprint home. I am so going to never hear the end of this when I get back home, but that's for later to think. I passed by the recreational park and stopped abruptly as I took a closer look.
There was a group of men huddled on a bench, shivering and talking softly. They had some weird symbol on their jackets (which didn't seem to do much in warming them). I felt bad and went towards them, ignoring the danger warning in the back of my head as I approached them. The one with a...mask covering his face spotted me and tilted his head, silently questioning my presence.
"H-Hello, are you guys lost?" I asked, abruptly awakening the large mech sleeping on the bench. He opened his eyes and glared at me.
Oh fuck, he had red eyes-
"Yes! Yes, we are- lost!" a slender figure spook, cutting off the scary man before the latter even got the chance to say anything. I nodded in understanding and handed them a bill of 100, hoping it could help them.
"What's this?" the man asked, holding up the bill weirdly. He also had red eyes like the bulky man.
"Um...money? To get you some food? You look like you're starving." I said. The bulky man stood up, towering me. I took a step back, suddenly feeling afraid of the man before me. Though, my fear was proven to be wrong when the man bowed a little, taking my hands and kiss it.
WAIT, did he just-
"Apologise on scaring you, young one. I have a very...intimidating look. Your assumptions are correct. We have been wandering around the town for two days and we're without a doubt, famished. Unfortunately, we're...new to this, could you perhaps help us in finding a suitable fuel consumption for us...please?" he asked politely, sending me a toothy smile.
His teeth are razor sharp, by the way.
"Um...sure? I'm on my way home, how about you guys come home for dinner before I get you guys a hotel to stay at?" I offered. The team beamed at me, and one man tackled me for a hug, startling me.
"THANK PRIMUS! WE'RE SAVED!" The man said. He had a jet-black hair with red highlights while wearing a red racing suit with black shirt underneath. The man had a dog tag with the same symbol as their jackets. I laughed and patted the man's back, calming him down.
"I'm (Y/N), what's your name?" I said, returning the smile.

It took us 15 minutes to get to my house, but I got to know the team's name. The charismatic leader's name was Megatron while the slender man with heels was Starscream. Knockout was the guy that tackled me and his buddy's name was Breakdown. Lastly, the masked man was known as Soundwave.
"Guys, I'm back!" I hollered, opening the door. The team behind me gave me a look and I smiled.
"I got some guests too, so don't be shy." I said, inviting them in.
"Thank you for your kind generosity, (Y/N)." Megatron thanked me again.
"(Y/N)! There you are! We missed you- WHO'S THAT!?" Miko yelled, pointing frantically at the group of men behind me. I swatted her fingers away, giving her a glare. The team came in and, in an instance, I felt the temperature dropped a few degrees.
Optimus stood in front of me, glaring at the tall man behind me with equal animosity from said person.
"Megatron." The Prime growled, narrowing his blue eyes at the large, bulky mech.
"Optimus, fancy seeing you here." Megatron said, smirking down at the man.
"You guys know each other?" I said, still oblivious of the whole situation.
"(Y/N), YOU DENSE IDIOT! THOSE ARE THE BAD GUYS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT! AND YOU BROUGHT IN THE WHOLE TEAM FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!" Miko yelled, standing behind Bulkhead.
Oh, shit.
