My Dads A Celebrity - 13 Getting Started
Teddy and Beth had moved into the house that his mom promised him it had taken longer than he wanted though since his mom told them to take longer so she could spend more time with Beth. Now they were sitting in the new house which was refurnished, Beth’s room was done in purples and pinks with a queen sized canopy bed something way to big for a toddler but she was spoiled by her grandmother.
There was also another room that was redone for his setup to stream which they were currently in with the live stream active, Beth looked too cute with her chipmunk mask he had finally finished both of theirs of course she looked like a mix between a bear and chipmunk now. His just made him look like a giant bear but it was funny to see since it looked like his wife was maybe a chipmunk and they had this little hybrid baby.
There was currently five people watching the stream waiting to see what was going to happen before Teddy finally spoke to them, “Hey there guys this my first stream along with my cute little chipmunk here. Say hi Chipmunk.”
Beth looked at the screen she couldn’t read what they wrote but still spoke to them, “Hi Chipmunk.” her dad had told her not to use her real name so she just followed what he said.

Teddy laughed a little seeing the first comment but didn’t say anything to them he just kept his attention on Beth, “So my little Chipmunk what do you want to sing first?”
“ummm…..” She tilted her hair trying to think of something before clapping, “Sunshine!”
Teddy heard this song for the first time last night when looking for stuff to sing it was ‘Sunshine’ by Ivy Vickerson Beth’s mother so it didn’t really surprise him when she asked him to sing this song since it was her biggest hit out right now. “Okay chipmunk we will sing that one first.” Teddy reached over and play the song without words he already had over a hundred ready for whatever she asked for so he wouldn’t be stumped.
‘I don’t always get Sunshine
because of you
they say it’s a curse
but now I’m stuck without you
once was a blessing
twice was a curse
now I’m stuck on you…’
At this point Beth joined in singing along with him she was off key but her natural singing voice was beautiful enough for it to be extremely pleasant, “But you are my Sunshine, my one world that takes time, and I have been through enough to know, that once is a blessing, twice is a curse…” She belted out the words spinning in circles around the room making Teddy laugh while he sung with her.
For the next twenty minutes he spent with her singing all songs she chose which were her mother’s, by now they went from five viewers to nearly a thousand just off by about ten or so. Teddy was shocked but happy their were no negative comments which he figured since they saw him as a dad singing with his daughter that it was just to adorable to even have a bad comment on.
Teddy knew it was time for Beth’s lunch then nap so he had to get her to agree, “Come on Chipmunk time for lunch then a nap. Say bye to everyone.”
“No I want to sing more.” she pouted crossing her arms.
“Ahh well I guess you don’t want to go to the Beach later then.” Teddy said trying to coax her into agreeing to go eat and take a nap which worked like a charm.
“Beach!? Okay I’ll take a nap.” she said nodding her head seriously.
Teddy told the audience that he would be back soon then took off to make her meal which she insisted on being a grilled cheese but he cut up watermelon to go with it, after her meal he changed her clothes and put her to bed. It only took five minutes for him to put her to sleep since she was exhausted even if she tried to play it off as being wide awake.
He had spent the past couple of days learning to play the piano so now he was extremely proficient in it making him at master stage, taking a few minutes he set up the camera and laptop near the piano getting ready for his performance. “Sorry about that guys I can’t let her skip her meals or naps so she needed to be put down. For now I will only be singing my original songs so if you like them stay and listen if not then we’ll really I don’t care then.”

The views were only in the hundreds now since some decided to leave but he was okay with that since he had the confidence that he could get them back watching, “Well here we go guys.”
‘Maybe, Not- Teddy Snow’
‘They said I was alone
but it was creeping in my home
so Maybe, Not
I’m gone because you
I see everything in black and grey
please don’t let it wash away
stuck standing all alone
not making it alone
my world burns with fire
surrounding everything
Maybe, Not I will stand on top
why can’t I be black and grey’
—————————————————-
Teddy while playing the slow but upbeat melody got caught in it and didn’t notice the people who were joining his stream taking him from five hundred viewers to fifteen hundred (1,500) it was really good for a first time streamer. He hadn’t set up subscriptions because he planned on selling his music anyway so he didn’t want to make money from random people but that didn’t stop them from donating since he made $2,000 from them.
For the next hour he sung until his throat was raw which his fans enjoyed but he only sung four originals before singing a mashup of covers, he was waiting until he put out an album for before any more originals were put out. Right when he was done with his stream he got a call from Ivy who was due to pick up Ivy tomorrow.
“Yellow” he said smiling at the thought of his stream he just finished.
“Send me your new address so I know where to pick up Beth tomorrow.” She said in her usual cold tone.
“I’ll do just that anything else?”
“Where’s Beth?”
“Nap.”
“Well whatever I will see her tomorrow.” Her tone got more cold as they talked so when she hung up it was more of a command rather than a sentence.
Teddy didn’t get a chance to try because she hung up on him which he didn’t mind, after changing into normal clothes he was going to make himself some food but he stopped because he heard crying from his daughters room. Walking in he saw her sitting in the bed crying so he rushed over, “What’s wrong chipmunk?”
“I don’t want to sleep alone I had a nightmare.” she said crawling into his arms and laying on his chest rubbing her face in.
“Okay don’t worry daddy will sleep with you.” which is exactly what he did instead of eating he curled up with her in the bed and they both ended up taking a nap.
