A Couple of Days Later

Things flew by really fast after their trip to the mountains. Katie and Mark lounged around home for the next day with Regina heading home to do things on her end. She had decided to move into Ashley's old room which was the biggest bedroom in the house second to the master bedroom. Mark's parents moved Ashley's belongings into Mark's old room and Regina's room become a guest bedroom.

The day before the first day of college for Katie, the family all together at Katie's. Charles and Gloria did not make it as they were out on trip somewhere. Mark's parents were able to meet Jackie and they seem to kick it off really well with her. The highlight of the night came when Mark stopped time and then he, Katie and Regina had fun the frozen pair. Frank was left sitting alone at the table as Robin, Andrea and Jackie were carried away for some fun.

Mark woke up to his alarm. It was seven in the morning. It really sucked to be up this early especially with all the fun they had with the night before. He was not sure how many hours of sleep that he actually had but it did not feel like a lot. He groaned and pulled himself out of bed. He debated on stopping time just get some more sleep. In the end he decided not to as he really wanted the day to progress. It was his first day as an actual adult after all.

He looked back in his bed at the naked forms of Alexis Joy and Lucy Mission who he and Katie had spent the night with the night before. "Good morning ladies..." he croaked his voice laced with sleep. He bent down and gave both women a kiss before heading off to the showers. Katie was already gone she had ran early and then a had a work out before heading to first class.

By eight Mark came downstairs freshly showered and in uniform. His uniform was basically the police standard sans a badge and any equipment. He looked and felt like a security guard. In the living room he found Regina in her underwear eating some sort of sugary cereal. She was seated on the sofa between Kelly and Tracy, both were naked. On the coffee table Hannah, also in buff with her legs jutting stiffly off the table edge. On her stomach was a carton of milk and a box of cereal. Regina still had another week of summer break left before she started her senior year. She looked up at her brother and smiled through mouthful of cereal. On the TV some Vampire show was playing.

"Well good morning..." Mark said as he took stock of the room.

Regina swallowed before she replied, "Morning!"

"What happen to your clothes?" Mark asked as he headed off the kitchen to make himself some toast.

"After I worked out with Katie this morning I can back here I was sweaty and stuff so I just undressed to to let my clothes air out..." Regina explained. "Then I got hungry and here we are..."

"So why are the ladies out there too?"

"I got hungry..." Regina replied turning around a wagging her eyebrows at her brother.

Mark shook his head. "What going on with you today?"

"Oh, I'm just going to hang out here. Katie want me to shoot a couple sets and then later I have to head back home I have a piano lesson then back here where I have SAT prep stuff to study for. Katie should be back by then so we'll see what she wants to do." Regina replied her focus on the TV and her cereal.

Mark shrugged. "Sounds like a plan."

As Mark headed off to his first day at work. Katie was heading into her first class of the day. He had three classes on Monday and Wednesday plus another long class on Friday. She was starting light. Her first class was history and she regretted ten minutes it. It was too boring for an eight AM class. There were some cute girls in the class though.

By nine AM, Mark reported in with the desk sergeant the police HQ. Every week Mark would rotate through different jobs with the department. His first week he was working in HQ as clerk or general assistant to everyone. To his surprise his partner was his old neighbor Helen Wang who also like him a police cadet.

Mark and Katie were progressing with their day. Regina still in her underwear entered the garage studio. The garage consisted of a sofa and bed that was picked up from a local church. There were green screens and racks and upon racks of clothing and shoes. The dolls were stored at one end of the garage in various form of undress. In one corner was a desk set up where Katie kept her laptop and camera. On the wall behind desk was a dry erase board where ideas for shoots were listed.

Regina picked up the camera and powered it up. "Let's see what we have today..." she said looking up at the dry erase. The first listed shoot had Alexis Joy and Jennifer. Regina looked at the dolls in storage and picked up Jennifer but did not see her friend. She figured the girl was being used else where and looked to the next shoot. Tracy and Haley were listed. "There we go..." Regina said and crossed their names off. She the walked over to the storage area. Tracy stood at attention towards the back dressed in nothing but a pair of pink panties. Haley was front in center she stood stark naked while her head was leaned forward making look like a powered down robot. "Time for work ladies."

Katie's second class of day was an English class. It was probably her easiest class as its work load was something similar to what she had in high school. Also if felt like she was not learning anything new. This was also the first class where she had somebody she knew in it. The class had already started when Erin Vansenz strolled it. The blond did not even say anything to the professor that was giving her a dirty look. She just took an empty seat and started to text on her phone. "Oh joy..." Katie muttered under her breath.

"So this was a surprise to see you here," Mark said as he and Helen sat down for lunch in the HQ dinning room.

"Well I want to be a lawyer and thought that if I was cop first it'll give me more experience. Law school is expensive my parents are already help me with university but our budget is tight. The police department has program where they pay for your courses as long as you're employed with them," Helen said as she unwrapped the sub she bought from the line.

"Oh nice, I didn't know that," Mark said with a nod as he started to pick at the pasta he had selected from the line. He was not surprised how good Helen looked in her uniform. She was looker in her old school uniform he had seen her in when he lived with his parents. Her dark hair that was usually worn loose and fell to the small of her back was up in a regulation bun that made her look older and professional.

"Your dad got you in?" Helen asked.

"Yeah...grades weren't good enough for college so my dad offered this....he's been a cop for like twenty something years and it's done well for him...so I figured why not?"

"That's cool, its a good career choice and it pays well with good benefits."

"You ready for class evening?"

Helen nodded, "I think so, it's not like regular school its more focused so I think it won't be too bad. I'm bit worried about the physical stuff."

"Yeah...me too but my dad said they work with you a lot so hopefully we should be fine. I really hate running."

"Me too," Helen nodded. "It's nice that we're partners. At least we know each other."

"Yeah...this is nice start to things."
