Part Time Star Full Time Dad - Chapter 66

 

|Third POV Theodore|

On Tuesday evening Theodore had acquired two more Clones and upgraded his skills.

For the rest of that evening, Theodore was working on the game with Mary and Sophie while his clones were redrawing Sole Piece and Batman into its original manga and comic book style.

Despite their relationship becoming “friends with benefits” they did not do anything remotely sexual that night. Neither Mary nor Sophie visited him privately at night.

The next day they continued to work whilst still making sure to play with Rose. He did his regular morning stream.

He also got his first delivery since moving in. a bunch of Flick sports ware with a box filled with Gruited fruit drinks

Theodore did intend to ask Sophie’s parents to publish his but they respectfully declined, acknowledging that they did not have the connection to satisfy the international fans. Instead, they advised him to invest in printing and cutting machine that is used by other successful self-publishers. The problem is that it costs $49,000.

Selling is the easy part, getting them to the customer is a hurdle. Theodore was then left with opening up a new email for manga and comic related business. Then he posted on Humming “Where do you get your Manga/Comics? Please specify”

With it, he created a very simple program that assembled a list of their answers. It then automatically deleted any duplicate answers and put them in three different categories, these being Shops, Website, and Popularity. It would then be put on a world map that he quickly made.

This way he can see just how far his fame as a manga and comic artist had reached. He had even gone so far as to research the types of paper used by big comic and manga publishers in hopes of being able to provide fans with a quality product.

It was a fairly ordinary day in the Hunt residents with Mary and Sophie once again staying over after a long day’s work. Still no knock on his bedroom door

. . . . . . . .

|First Pov Theodore|

“Urgh”

With a loud groan my eyes open. I blink a few times before flinging the duvet off and sitting myself up.

“Yawn, What to do today?”

Springing to my feet, I then begin to stretch. I wash my face and change into a pair of shorts and a loose shirt before going out for my morning run.

As I was heading out I hear Sophie and Mary’s voice.

“Hey wait up” Shouted Sophie

They were both wearing black yoga pants, a blue zip-up hoodie, and a black Flick sports bra.

“You guys coming?” I asked

“Yep,” They said while nodding

“Well, ladies first,” I said while pulling open the door

Sophie squinted and said “You just want to see our ass’s”

I proudly declared “How dare you assume my fetish. It’s thighs too,”

Mary shows me a sexy smile and winks before walking past gracefully. I did as my heart commanded and watched as each cheek raised, dropped and shook with every gentle step.

*Gulp* ‘DAamn!’

I then “How long are you gonna stare?”

“I’m just waiting for you,” I said with an honest smile

Mary definitely had a larger ass but a tight peach-like ass like Sophie has it perks too. Don’t get me wrong her ass is thick but not Mary thiccc.

Sophie was aware of her own advantages. She walked passed but as she got to the door she looked over her shoulder with a smug smile and did a delicate jump. My eyes quickly deviated from her smile as it looked on to her ass as it dropped with gravity and shook.

‘Ah, yoga pants what a beautiful creation’ I then proceeded to do some light stretches.

As I was heading out, I hear Rose’s tired voice “I run to”

Turning around I see Rose wearing shorts with her pajama top still on and white velcro trainers. Her hair was still a mess with a wet drool patch on the collar of her shirt.

By her side was Icy with his bowl in his mouth looking confused. I laugh and make a clone to help Icy out.

Picking Rose up I say “Let’s get you changed first. How did you wake up on your own?”

“I don’t know” Said Rose while giving a loud yawn

“You woke up way too early, It’s not good for you”

“But I feel really, really good,” Rose said happily while rubbing her eyes with her balled up fists.

Kissing her on the head I say “So why does the Princess want to run”

“Daddy runs so Rose runs to” Said Rose confidently

“That’s sweet but you need to have your sleep. Sigh well just add it to your nap time”

“I don’t like naps!”

“Naps are good. They make you big, strong and super duper smart” I said cheerfully

“But sleep dose that too?” Said Rose with a confused tone

“They both do”

“Oh” Said Rose quickly accepting the very little knowledge I shared with her.

I quickly wash Rose’s face and change her pajama shirt for a loose yellow shirt. I brush her hair and put a cap on her head. I gave her some apple slices and then ran around in the backyard with Mary, and Sophie taking the lead.

I stopped Rose the moment she started huffing and had a clone help her take a quick shower before having a full breakfast.

Mary, Sophie, and I were still running at a steady pace. We ran for an hour and a half. I took a cold shower and then had breakfast with Sophie and Mary.

For breakfast, I made us oatmeal with croissants from a bakery close by. I got Rose’s favorite apple pie, jam donuts, chocolate croissant, and some bread. The apple pie if for later of course.

“So what on today’s schedule?” I ask

“Let’s put the game to the side today and film your ad for Gruited” Said Mary

“Good idea. Sophie how far have you gotten with the art”

“I’ve done most of it I’m just working on the Church,” Said Sophie while greedily stuffing her face with donuts

“And Mary how’s that Marketing folder doing”

“I need to proofread it, It should be done before lunch.” Said Mary confidently

“Good. We’re ahead of schedule. I had thought that creating the game would take at least 3 weeks but it seems will be done in 2”

“It’s not like we’re really doing much, to be honest, it’s mostly you doing work. When I was working at D.A most teams would regularly come to a hurdle that was either investors giving an absurd task or fixing multiple game-breaking bugs. But even so, you might be the best programmer or at least planner that’s effectively able to make a game in 2 weeks” Said, Mary

“Well I did have a lot spare time”

The main reason why it’s been so easy is because Legend level Hacking and Legend Level Parallel Thinking is a broken combination. Not to mention planning was mostly copy and paste with additional changes in the mix. There was a leaning curve to actually building the game despite it being a niche platform game.

“When do you want to start filming” Asked Sophie

“How’s about at nine. I still need to stream and Rose would be halfway through her nap”

. . . . . . .

I started streaming at 7 a.m and stopped at 8:30 am. I changed into a cyan polo shirt with cargo shorts

I then join Mary and Sophie in the backyard. Mary and Sophie were sat at a white wooden table. On the table was a glass jug of apple juice, a short glass cup next to a green carton of Gruited Apple Juice.

Putting my hands out to the side I ask “So how do I look?”

“It’s okay” Said Sophie casually

“You look great. Now come sit” Said Mary

I sat down and went to pour myself a drink before my hand was promptly slapped away.

“That’s not for drinking. This is the set don’t move a thing. Here’s a script” Said Sophie while passing me a note full of words that had been scribbled out and replaced.

I read the script out loud “I’m Theodore Hunt and I’m a genius. I wasn’t born with the title, I had to work for it. Montage plays. I woke up at 4 in the morning for 4 months to turn from this average guy to the genius you see today. After a long day’s work, I like to reward myself with Gruited. with every cup, I’m refreshed and ready for another day… Umm isn’t this a bit much?”

“Why what’s the problem?” Asked Sophie naively

“I think it’s a perfect” Said Mary

“No, seriously this is less of a Gruited advertisement and more of a campaign. Am I running for mayor or something? Today’s audience don’t have the same attention spam as the past. Short and simple just a thumbs up after a good drink would do better.” I said casually

“It’s a bit boring?” Asked Sophie

“I believe our script is better as it can be an introduction into who you are to the average Television viewer. This isn’t just an opportunity to earn money but a chance advertise your brand” Said Mary

“That’s nice but because it’s my first sponsor we should be sincere. Focus on the product and deliver what I was tasked to do” I said while pouring myself a drink

We then talked about it for another 20 minutes before finally settling on something simple.

We filmed a short 20-second video. I had Mary and Sophie both navigating the BoxCam through their phones while I followed the script.

The BoxCam slowly wrapped around from behind me with the Gruited Apple juice carton in clear view. As it came to my side it stopped for a second as an image of me and the carton being embraced by the sun was captured.

The BoxCam finally comes to my front. I silently pour myself a drink and softly sip with a satisfied smile plastered across my face.

I stare into the lens with love and confidence swimming in my pupils. My lips parted as a deep thumping voice sounds “Not every day can be a good day, but with a glass of Gruited it can be just a tad bit sweeter”

I raise the glass to the lens and hold it.

“Cut hehe I can now add director to my C.V” Said Sophie happily

“It’s still a bit plain” Said Mary

“Don’t worry with a bit of CGI magic and it will perfect” I said confidently

I then left to wake Rose. When I entered the room I saw her duvet pushed off, her hair and clothes damp.

Her face was a little flushed but that was normal. Her temperature wasn’t anything crazy either. After assessing her situation I finally wake her up.

“Rose, it’s time to get up”

She turns over and pulls an imaginary duvet up to her nose.

“Little Princess, Petal, wakey wakey,” I said while giving her shoulder a gentle nudge.

“Urgh no, no” Said Rose with her eyes closed tight.

“Come on Rose If you don’t wake up you’ll miss lunch. I made pasta”

With one eye open, she asks “Tuna pata?”

“Yep your favorite and there also a surprise before lunch”

She raised her small fist and gave her eyes a rub before yawning “Really?”

“Have I ever lied to Rose”

Rose gave it thought before shaking her side to side and saying “No daddy is a good daddy”

I smile happily.

Rose then looks down at her body, seeing her wet clothes and bed she immediately said “Oh no daddy I did it again”

I smile and say “Nope it’s just sweat”

“Sweat? *Siff, Sniff* smelly, need shower” Said Rose as she jumped off the bed and grabbed her small white towel.

As she got to the door she looked back and said “Daddy not helping?”

“Of course daddy helps but first let’s get you out of these clothes”

I quickly strip her down while look for any obvious signs that led to her sweating so much.

I then spot something new on her neck. I take a closer look and see a tiny jade-green flame. It was a barely visible buy at closer inspection you could see it calmly flickering.

I wave my finger over it and notice that it did not feel hot or cold it was more of a summer breeze, calming and quiet.

I recognized immediately ‘Thankfully she isn’t sick but her power appears to be changing her body to be compatibale. A fire user but a green one is something new. Looks like I’ll have to visit the stone’

With every generation, new powers are born. This is was already predicted by the archaeologists that work closely with Archaic Slab.

(Note: Archaic Slab is a 10ft high ancient rock that can be found in major city’s and reveal what power you have before it’s even usable)

I had a clone change Rose’s sheets while I washed the sticky princess. After a good wash, I properly applied lotion before changing her into a white overall dress, underneath was a mustered long-sleeved shirt with white tights.

Rose quickly went down the stairs and went to play with Mary, Sophie, and Icy.

Before joining them I made an appointment with the L.A’s Archaic Slab.

Sadly the only space is next next month which is November and is supposed to be the month I started my Christmas shopping.

‘Hmm Christmas. . . . it’s our first Christmas without Beth. I wonder whether she’ll send a present? If she does should I put it under the tree? . . . . considering Rose reaction to just mentioning her its best not.’

I moved quietly down the stairs to the living room. I stood there watching Rose smile and laugh as she plays pretend with Sophie and Mary.

‘I’m one lucky guy. It’s been what?.. A day since we agreed to this weird “Friends With Benefits” relationship. They have not said anything about it but the open flirting is clear. I can’t say I’ve fallen madly in love with them. . . but who’s to say I won’t. They are willing to try so I should also’

Taking a deep breath I give a charismatic smile and ask “Can I play?”

Rose nodded and said “Yes, we’re animals”

Pointing at Sophie she said “Auntie ~Wagua” (Jaguar)

Then pointed at Mary and said “Auntie snake”

Whilst pointing at me she tilted her head as cogs in her head began to turn. She thought long and hard before saying excitedly “Daddy elephant!!”

going on all fours I then raise my head with my arm acting as the trunk and give my best trumpet noise “HonnnK!”

“Ooh ooh I monkey” Said Rose as climbed on to my back

“Daddy Elephant run its Auntie ~wagua n Auntie Snake. They want to eat us”

Sophie gives snarls in a hungry angry manner before delivering a loud “Roar! me want food!”

Mary was a bit confused as a snake did not have any legs. Lying flat on the floor she smoothly wiggled over and pushed her self off the floor with her back curved and hissed while saying “Sssss Auntie snake hungry”

With a terrifying shriek, Rose pats my back and shouts “Eeek run fast daddy elephant”

I ran around the house for a good hour with Rose some times coming down from my back to tease the now tired Sophie and Mary.

“You can’t catch us,” Said, Rose

I gave Sophie and Mary a wink. They then latched on to her and tickled her.

“Roar, yummy food,” Said Sophie as she showed her kissed

“Ssss tasty monkey,” Said Mary as did as Sophie did.

“Eeek, no stop hehe stop it haha no” Shouted Rose while trying her best to block her armpits.

*Ding Dong, Ding*

“Ah, they are here!” I said excitedly

“Who’s here?” Asked Sophie

“Is it your parents?” Asked Mary

“Nope, I got Rose a playmate. You’ve met her Mary. Remember Bella she wore a Cinderella slash little red riding hood”

“I remember but did you teach Rose sign language?” Said Mary

“Nope, so I’ll have a clone follow them around and translate”

“Wait if Bella’s coming then is her mom coming as well” Asked Mary with some subtle suspicion in her voice

“Yes it was originally meant for signing that endorsement deal with Vague & Finer but I thought it would be a good chance for Rose to have some new to play with”

“So Grace is coming hmm” Said Mary while giving Sophie a glance

“Wait as in the Grace Thompson?” Said Sophie excitedly before her face suddenly went dark and looked at Mary “Is she. . ”

“Yes,” Said Mary as they silently nod at each other

‘. . . .Did I really invite beautiful women over after just a day after Mary confessed? I think I have a few screws loose. . . No no I invited her with only the contract and friendship in mind. Dem tittie though. . . friendship yes friendship’ I silently convince myself whilst going to get the door.
