Chapter 37 - [37] Fast Forward

I'm not sure about this style of writing it seemed like a good idea when I had it...but now that I have it it's kinda ehh...meh.

~~ — — — — — — — — — — ~~

We're just getting back from Barstow. We stayed a couple of days, Roman and I patched up our old brotherly friendship, and damn I didn't realize how much I needed another guy friend until we were back in Miami.

I'm currently installing a hidden weapon drawer in my…our bedside night stand in what is supposed to be my bedroom but I mostly share it with Mia and Letty...while they have their own spaces.

Letty watches from the bed, dressed in nothing but one of T-shirts, completely sprawled out on my bed.

"So you gonna teach me how to shoot that space blaster, or is that just for you?"

I glance over my shoulder at her smirking.

"Only if you don't call it a space blaster." I tease and Letty laughs softly.

Second Week since moving into the warehouse.

Just getting done at my shift at Tej's garage, Letty took the day off just feeling like she needed a day to herself…somehow that ended up with Mia taking the day off and she, Letty and Suki going to a spa.

'Holy Shit, this is awesome!' I express excitedly, and pull the sliver from my inventory without thinking.

It's like a bolt of lightning is arching through my head as images in Cybertronian flash in my vision rapid fire each Cybertronian symbol containing terabytes of data.

I black out but I can still feel the upload and download of information going on between myself and the sliver, my Mechanical Mastery ability probably the only thing keeping my brain from melting unlike Sam's mystical protection from the Primes.

I wake up Supra had driven me back to home and I can feel her nervousness for my safety and then a sound that sends my heart hammering and suddenly I'm being cradled in metallic hands looking up at the face of a bit who looks very similar to Arcee from Transformers Prime but more real and substantial, her light pink optical sensors blooming with concern.

"Are you alright…father?" Supra asks me and I nod but I feel anything but okay.

"I…I think I'm fine, Supra and just call me Brian." I mutter softly as I reach up and press a hand against her face. It's soft and warm like flesh.

A slight blue tint bleeds into Supra's cheeks, "B-brian…what would Letty and Mia think if they saw us?" Supra stutters and I find it rather adorable.

"Well they know I love you…even if you are a pain in the butt sometimes." I joke and Supra giggles even as a look of mock offense lights up her face.

I find myself in the lab working on Supra adjusting things that she says don't quite feel right until I turn them just right or tighten them.

Taking off her armor plating I find that Supra looks very human underneath the body paneling that forms her armor finding breasts and a vagina. Intrigued and a little put off by that especially when Supra moans like we're making passionate love as I adjust a bolt.

"Haa-haa, thank you Brian." Supra murmurs in a breathless voice before transforming into her vehicle mode.

I work late into the night creating a small drone using Cybertronian science and human technology, that transformer into a blaster pistol.

Mia sneaks up on me and her hand brushes against my forearm making me flinch a little and look up at her.

"You look so happy here…" Mia murmurs softly to me.

It's because I have you, Letty, Supra and Sophia." I say back to her with a smile, which makes Mia roll her eyes at me lean in and steal a kiss.

Third week since moving into the warehouse.

I'm laying on the couch snuggling with Mia and Letty as we watch some chick flick, that is very similar to Fast and Furious, named Sisters and Gears.

When the system prompt appears.

[Sign-in confirmed dispensing reward; Camouflage Body Armor (Ghost Recon-inspired) – Adaptive camo mesh that passively responds to ambient light, 10x suits the size adjusts to fit the wearer.

My phone rings, "Yo O'Connor I'm down two racers."

I look at Mia who shakes her head no I go to turn to Letty but she plucks the phone from my fingers.

"We're on our way Tej!"

"You got four minutes, Letty."

Letty and I enter a rather low-stakes race, with a 2g buy in.

Letty's wearing a very provocative sleeveless compression shirt over camo mesh.

As we sit on the hoods of our cars as Tej sets everything up, "Alright everybody let's get this show on the road!" Tej says through a microphone.

Letty and I slid into our cars, "Hey babe, I bet you that you have to make dinner and massage my feet tonight if I win." I playfully holler to Letty and she giggles.

"Okay, put it I win you have to take Mia out somewheres nice…"

"I planned a date night for tomorrow." I laugh back and Letty rolls her eyes.

"Of course you did." Letty laughs, as Tej throws the flag down and we're off four of us, some Dominic guy and black girl both running civics.

Our shiny glossy paint jobs flicker under the lights as my car roars past the finish line, with Letty right on my back bumper, we'd completely left the Busters behind.

Letty pulls up beside him, wide grin.

"We didn't even need to use the NOS."

"No we didn't…this was just sad."

[Sign-in confirmed dispensing reward; Holographic AI Toolkit: Miniaturized holo/Hard light projected assistant that can monitor security feeds, assist in everyday functions even car tuning, and simulate engine models in real time.]

'Sweet this way I can give Pilot-One a driver.' I think as I hand it off to the girls.

I smile as I watch Mia and Letty sit on the couch, beer bottles on the table, holographic V8 engine hovering between them.

Letty adjusts valve timings with flicks of her fingers, while Mia naked the cam shaft lobes lobbier.

Leaving my girlfriends to build holographic engines and to drink beer I go into the Hauler's garage which if off limits to both Mia and Letty at the moment, even Pilot-One hasn't allowed them to sweet talk it into letting them in to see what I'm working on.

I smile as I look at the 1969 Ford Torino Cobra…it's not quite the same one that was Letty's first car but I did my best to track one down for her birthday present.

'It's hard to believe it's been a month here in Miami already…'

The system prompt appears.

Mentally signing in.

[Sign-in confirmed dispensing reward; Fabricator (Subnautica) creates small tools or parts based on blueprints, chemicals etc.

"Whoa…that's pretty sweet." I mutter as I mount the Fabricator to the wall in the garage bay.

I use the Fabricator to create a custom short throw shifter for a custom sequential six speed transmission for Letty's Ford Torino Cobra along with a new ignition system.

'This car is going to be a fucking beast that dominates and eats all other cars.' I think proudly as I go back to reinforcing the Torino structurally to support the thousand plus horse power V-12 engine I'm putting into it.

I hear a knock at the Garage Bay's door, "Brian Roman's here he says that thing you sent him to clone his anklet and read as he's at home near the stadium…also there's a large delivery crate from Armortex in front of the front steel doors." Mia calls from the other side of the door.

"Oh and Sophia's back, I'm gonna take the Porsche to go pick her up…is Roman allowed to come into the Hauler and the Hauler's garage bay?" Mia adds on and asks curiously.

"Uhh yeah sure." I holler back to her as I use the special lift to rotate the Torino reinforcing a unibody design is not an easy or simple process.

The door from the living area to the garage bay opens up and Roman walks in making a noise of astonishment followed by Tej.

"Damn Brian…" Both express in a breath.

"Hey guys…just let me finish up with this and we'll start cooking on the grill." I say to the two but I see them checking out the Lamborghini that looks more like a tank than a hypercar.

"Bri…don't take this the wrong way…but when did you get smart?" Roman asks and I can't tell if he's joking or serious or not but Tej also makes a noise in the back of his throat.

"I wouldn't say I'm smart but…it's like I can see how to make things or make improvements to them." I say back to Roman and the smartass chuckles.

"So is that what happened with those two you saw Mia and saw a way to make things better with Letty?" Tej asks me playfully while coming over and running his hand along the front fender of the Torino.

"Damn Brian this will be one sweet ride when it's finished." Tej mutters in admiration.

"Thanks Tej…I hope Letty likes it from some stories Mia and Letty have told me she had a car like this for her first car and she loved it but she ended up kicking the ass end out and rolling it into a guard rail with Mia in the car." I say and Roman cuts me off with a laugh.

"You know I didn't believe it at first…but our boy's been domesticated." Roman cracks a joke and Tej laughs.

"You're just jealous cause ain't no woman wants to deal with that billboard sized forehead." I fire back and Tej loses it while Roman pouts/glares and tries to bumble through a shot back.

The girls get back with Sophia in tow. Roman tries to flirt with her but she brushes him off and runs over to me with a shout of Papi and jumps into my arms and wraps her legs around me.

We host a barbecue on the warehouse rooftop that we turned into a sort of garden, watching the sunset, eating burgers and drinking beers.

"Hey Brian can you come give me a hand?!" I hear Letty shout.

"Sure, I'll be right there!" I holler back and put the contact lenses in, as I exit the Hauler they tag Letty as a threat while Mia tries distracting me.

Letty is sneaking up behind me alongside Sophia and then I'm getting tackled and puppy piled by the girls.

"Mmm, Papi…Estoy caliente por ti, Papi!" Sophia moans out telling me that she's feeling so hot for me.

The girls and I have fun on the hardwood flooring before Mia brings up that she picked up tickets for a drive-in movie night.

The four of us squeeze into the Porsche Cayenne with me and Sophia in the backseat. She is all over me and after Mia and Letty return and hand off a gigantic bucket of extra buttery popcorn, Sophia insists that I eat it off of her tits and she… "makes" me take off my shirt and proceeds to eat the popcorn off of me.

Seventh week since moving into the warehouse.

~~ — — — — — — — — — — ~~

Today is Letty's Birthday and I'm about to surprise both her and Letty with the rebuil- okay mostly custom 1969 Ford Torino Cobra in gunmetal gray with black racing stripes.

Mia leads a blindfolded Letty into the Hauler's garage bay, a gasp escaping her at the sight of the car.

"Oh Brian she's gorgeous." Mia gasps and Letty pulls the blindfold off of herself.

The look on Letty's face says it all she loves it.

Letty rests her hands on the front lip of the car looking in at the custom V12 engine, her fingers lovingly caressing the silver paint.

Letty looks at me with tears in the corners of her eyes, "This is what you've been keeping secret for so long…Brian you lovable idiot." Letty murmurs and I grin at her.

"Mia was telling me one night how much you loved you Torino…so I wanted to give something back for how happy you make me." I admit and feel a little awkward.

Letty walks over and wraps her arms around my waist and presses her ear against my chest over my heart.

"I love you too Brian…thank you so much…now stop crying we're taking her for a spin." Letty says and the three of us pile inside, 'I do wish Sophia was here for Letty's birthday.'
