Chapter 166: Time Passing


Justin: How was your day love?
Abi: Good, Got another promotion so only 2 more to go now.




Justin: That's really great hun. I'm so proud of you.
Abi: You've got that twinkle in your eye husband of mine.
Justin: Have I? *wink* Well then...




A little later...

Justin: I love you.
Abi: Hmm me too darling.




Dude: Not bad for an old codger eh watcher?
Yep, not bad at all.




Mac: We haven't been on a holiday for ages!
Zahra: I know but I don't think Abi wants to take any time off work.
Julien: Hmm she's pretty determined to beat my record.




Charlotte: Thanks for helping me with my drawing daddy.
Justin: Of course sweetheart.
Charlotte: I think I might go play some Keyboard Attack next. Want to try and beat my high score again.




Charlotte: Arghhh! This game cheats!
Lol, how come?
Charlotte: Well every time I beat my high score it resets itself. One day I'm going to reprogram this game and make it so I can win when I actually win.
Sounds a plan. I think you should go do something else for a while in case you blow a fuse though.
Charlotte: K, this sucks anyway.




Dude: How'd your high score go today?
Charlotte: Don't even ask G5, the program is faulty.
Dude: lol, fair enough.




Dude: Ugh!
Charlotte: You k?
Dude: Yep, incoming!




Charlotte: I wonder how hard it is to learn programming...
Dude: Won't know 'till you try love.
Charlotte: *to self* Hmm.. I wonder...




Next morning...

Lol, what are you wearing Charlotte?
Charlotte: I'm not Charlotte. I'm Bear.
Oh! Did you eat Charlotte up?
Bear: Yes, yes I did!
Rats! I'm going to really miss her.
Bear: I'm gonna make you love meeee though mwhahahaha




Justin: I'm just not sure you can do your neatest handwriting wearing that Charlotte.
Bear: I'm not Charlotte, I'm Bear.
Justin: I see... well, Bear, I hope your handwriting is neat or you might find yourself redoing it.




Justin: Good job bear.
Bear: Thanks dad.




Justin: Quick snap? It's not often a father finds himself with a new child... errr cub..
Bear: Honeyyyyy




Bear: I forgot to tell you last night dad, but I got an A!
Justin: Woo! That's my bear! Good for you!




Justin: So what's this 'thing' you want to show me?
Bear: Not so much a 'thing' as a problem.




Bear: Now take a look around my room dad. There's something very wrong.




Justin: On it!




Justin: Better now?
Bear: Yep, thanks dad.
Justin: Sorry 'bout that love, wasn't actually me this time though!
Bear: That's ok.
Justin: Love you princes...err... bear.




Abi: What a good idea Bear, we should start every day with a dance party!
Bear: *growl giggle*




Abi: Off you go luv, have a fantastic day at school.
Bear: Will do. See ya dad, love you mum.
Justin: I hope your teacher won't mind the suit.
Bear: What suit? This is my natural fur!




Abi: Have I told you what a beautiful, clever, charming daughter you made?
Justin: Well, they do say practise makes perfect. *eye brow wiggle*
Abi: *Happy sigh* Mwhaa.

[MarianT]

Aww, Charlotte as Bear is so cute. Congrats to Julien!

[JudesSims]

What a sweet "bear!"

[KRae]

That's just the cutest thing ever! I like her commitment to the role.

[Cristina]

Cute bear 

I'm sure she'll figure out programming in no time

[Joria]

Awwwww.  I wubs da beah.  So adorable.  That actually made me tear up.  My last "Bear" has recently left the nest.  Ah.....memories of her very first cosplay.  I think Charlotte is going to be a cosplayer as well.

[mpart]

Aww loved Charlotte the bear! What's the little bear up to now?

[Playalot]

Thank you everyone. I'd had my eye on the bear costume for a while but just never seemed to get the right moment to use it... Charlotte's so cute as bear! lol

Chapter 167: Sadness


So whatcha gonna do on your day off?
Justin: Well watcher, apart from some relaxing probably not much.
Good for you, you've made it to the top of your career so enjoy your holidays while you can, I say.




Bear: Hey! Brittany!
Brittany: Lol Charlotte, you look so funny!




Bear: Is the ice cream ready yet Granddad?
Julien: That's weird! I so thought I heard a bear growl!!




Julien: There you go kiddes. Enjoy!
Bear: hmmm, thanks Granddad.
Brittany: Thank you Mr Hollingsworth.
Julien: You're both very welcome.




Brittany: How you going to get that past your snout Charlotte?
Bear: I have absolutely no idea!
Both: *giggle*




Justin: You might just need to take your bear suit off little bear.
Bear: Never!




I'm glad you got out of the pool ok Charlotte.
Charlotte: Of course watcher! Why wouldn't I?
I just have this terror of someone getting stuck in there... I might fence it off.
Charlotte: Well, if that would alleviate your irrational fear of drowning, sure, go ahead and deprive us of aquatic enjoyment.
Well, when you put it like that...




Charlotte: Are you sure that the answer is 54.7?
Yusuf: Pretty sure.
Julien: Ummm..




Charlotte:*radically changing the subject* Please Granddad, pleeeeeease could I have some new toys?
Julien: Ummm...
Yusuf: Your homework's not going to do itself little cuz... might as well just stop changing the subject and get it done.
I think everyone is going slightly mad... I'm outties.





Justin: Don't be late for work love.
Abi: Oh! Right! Thanks for reminding me!
Justin: I know how you lose all track of time when you are writing.




Justin: I hope you are not working too hard my love?
Abi: No, I'm good hun. Honestly, I'd tell you if it was getting too much.
Justin: K, love you babe. Knock 'em dead sweetie.
Abi: You know, I think I just might with this routine I've just written... lol




Don't you...
Julien: ...over do it. yeah, I know.
Immortal, not invincible, just sayin. Wait! What the heck???






Oh noo....
Justin: Tell my baby I love her...give her my first Potion...Watcher?
I will Justin.
Justin: Tell ... Abi....
*Sob*




Charlotte: Daaaaddyyyy




Charlotte: No no No. Daddy I love you.
Dude: *Sob* Oh Darling...Poor Justin...
Julien: Oh Charlotte.




Charlotte: Watcher, I've got a sore tummy.
Oh darling. Your daddy was so proud of you and loved you so much.
Charlotte: I know watcher...*heart break*




Dude: I know you're just doing your job Grim, but the timing here was the worst yet.
Grim: I'm sorry.
Dude: Charlotte is only hours away from her teen birthday, couldn't you have waited?




Charlotte: I really wanted daddy to be here for my big birthday Grim. I don't see why you have to be so mean about when you come for people. Why didn't you just wait?
Grim: Ummm...




Charlotte: You've broken my heart.
Grim: OOoooo!




Abi: I'm so happy watcher! Only one more promotion to go! Woo! I can't wait to tell Justin.
*Gulp* Umm Abi? Wait!
Abi: Oh what now...quick! I'm in a hurry!
*Double gulp* Grim's here... Justin passed away moments ago... I'm so very, very, very, sorry.
Abi: Noooo.




Grim: I'm sorry Charlotte. I am. But rules is rules.
Charlotte: I'm struggling to keep on liking you Grim. It's my daddy you took.
Dude: I think a few extra hours wouldn't have hurt Grim, come on...




Abi: *Great ginormous sobs*
Charlotte: *Lip tremble*
Dude: *Huge sigh*
Grim: Ummmm




Grim: I err... might just go after Charlotte and make sure she's ...ummm... ok.
Abi: *Sobbing her heart out*
Dude: Watcher... is it really worth all this sadness?
I dunno mate. I dunno.




Abi: I wanted to *sob* talk to *sob* him.
Dude: I know darling, I know.
Abi: I wanted *hiccup sob* I wanted *sob*
Dude: Shhh shh... just breath Abi, just breath.

Charlotte's Teen Birthday


Charlotte: I'm glad I'm a teen today. I don't want to play anymore.
Oh sweetie.
Charlotte: I know daddy had to go sometime...
But you've had the best childhood, don't you think?
Charlotte: I had...and my daddy is the best in the whole simverse...I'm so lonely without him...




Dude: Morning sweet pea.




Charlotte: Oh G5 I miss daddy so much.
Dude: I know you do sweetheart. We all do.




Dude: I think there is someone waiting to talk to you downstairs that might just help a little.
Charlotte: G5 I don't think I can put on my social face and talk to anyone just now.
Dude: Trust me little one, this person will help.




Charlotte: Oh daddy I'm so happy to see you.
Justin: Me too my darling.
Charlotte: Are you ok?
Justin: I am 100% ok and apart from missing you and mummy I am just fine. I love you Charlotte.
Charlotte: Will you be able to stay forever daddy?
Justin: Not forever but I will visit when I can and I will watch over you when I can't. Now I think it's time for your cake sweetie.








Everyone: Happy Birthday dear Charlotte....
Charlotte: OMG...Not that I'm vain but no-one take any pics until I've changed... *runs for the dresser*
Mac: Well! That sure was an unusual outfit!




Do you not want any cake?
Charlotte: Later watcher, I've got some collecting to do.
But it's not even dawn!
Charlotte: Will be soon... I'm a gal on a mission. See yaz.




Charlotte: Oooo a crystal!!!







Charlotte: Hmm sunsurfer frog, not bad.




You ok?
Julien: Ezequiel passed away last night too watcher.
Oh Julien. I'm so sorry.
Julien: He was my best mate watcher. *sigh* I miss him already.
He really was your BFF, he was a great guy and we'll all miss him. It's too sad losing Justin and Esque on the same day.




Come back often Justin.




Zahra: Granddad, I'm a little worried about Charlotte. She's like a tornado!
Dude: I think she's just focused hun.




Dude: I'll keep a close eye on her though. You've got to remember that she has wanted to collect and geek out since she was a tiny kid... I'm sure she'll be fine.
Zahra: As long as she's not alone for too long then.. that would make me feel a lot easier about all this skilling up she's doing so soon after Justin passing on.




Dude: How are you doing?
Zahra: I'm fine. Better for talking.
Dude: Me too Zahra, me too.




Hey Dude?
Dude: Hmm?
Charlotte's been skilling out for some time now. I think you should take her out to the park.
Dude: Sure, why the park though?
Teens hang out there once it's dark. I think she could do with some more friends her own age.
Dude: Good idea.
I know, I'm full of them.
Dude: You're certainly full of something.
I heard that.
Dude: lol




Dude: Whatcha doing Charlotte?
Charlotte: Taking a selfie to send to Brittany. What you doin?
Dude: Cloning an essence of focus. Want to head out?
Charlotte: Sure.




Don't you want to meet some of the teens here?
Charlotte: Will do in a bit watcher, have to gather these crystals and fossils etc first.
*sigh* K.




Some hours later...

Look Charlotte, you've been collecting stuff for hours.... Let's go meet someone new.
Charlotte: If I do will you stop nagging me?
Totally.
Charlotte: K, let's go do this then. *Sigh*




Charlotte: Hi, I'm Charlotte.
Malcolm: Hi, I'm Malcolm.
Charlotte: Are you new around here? I haven't seen you around.
Mal: Yep, just moved into the neighbourhood.




Mal: Do you live around here to?
Charlotte: Yep, just down the road.
Mal: Nice!
Charlotte: <Thinking to herself> *Not nearly as 'nice' as you... yum!*




Mal: You're really cute Charlotte... Do you want to hang out some time?
Charlotte: Yeah! I mean, sure.. that would be... nice.  <Thinking>*Omg... why can't I say something besides 'nice*




Mal: Do you want me to walk you home?
Charlotte: Yeah, that would be...
Mal: ...nice?
Both: lol

Dude: You're more than welcome Mal, as long as you let your mum know where you are.
Mal: Sure thing Mr Hollingsworth.
Dude: Good lad. Spare room's all made up for you.




Dude: Mal's a good kid, don't think we'll have any trouble with him eh.
Mac: Nope, he seems just lovely. You'll have to pop round and meet his mum tomorrow.
Dude: Good idea.




Dude: Huh?
Charlotte: You ok G5?
Dude: Umm... yep... I think I might just be hungry.




Dude: Woah!




Dude: Be good not to have my face burnt off, just sayin.
Julien: Opps, sorry about that!




Julien: Your English assignment looks great Charlotte!
Charlotte: Thanks Granddad, I've been working really hard in English Lit.

Mal: Sorry about that Mrs Hollingsworth... not sure what happened there.
Abi: That's ok Mal, I guess it's just a lesson to get some sleep when you need it hun.




Mal: Umm... I really like your daughter Mrs Hollingsworth, she's very special.
Abi: Well, we all think so too Mal. You're a good young man... I'm sure you'll be good friends.




Abi: Have a good day Mal.
Mal: Thanks! Will do Mrs Hollingsworth.

Chapter 170: Abi's Adult Birthday


Morning!
Dude: Morning watcher.





Time for brekkie!
Dude: K, on it. I prepared it all last night anyway.
Good thinking because Caleb and Zahra have work very soon.





Dude: Hmmm foul fish and beetroot and raisins... delish!
Julien: Oh man! I don't think I can swallow it now...




Caleb: Actually, I think I'm starting to quite like the taste!
Well, regardless It's time for work so you better hurry it up!
Caleb: K, on it.




A little later...

Abi: Hmm what to wish for.. *sigh*
What's the sigh for Abi?
Abi: I really wanted to have completed my ambrosia requirements before my adult birthday... I feel a bit disappointed.
You only missed out by the fact that you only work 3 days a week. You've got your last promotion checked, just need to turn up to work to get it.  I think you've done really well... Come on, make a wish hun.




Dude: Happy birthday dear Abi!
Abi: Oh! That feels a little strange!
Happy birthday Abi, only another day and you'll be free! lol
Abi: Thanks everyone.




Mac: Enjoy your day love, you've done well.
Dude: I second that.




Charlotte: Oh good! The mail's here.
I think it might just be bills. How was school?
Charlotte: Good thanks. Ah, not bills but my elements. Cool.
Nice, anyway G5 said to tell you he'd meet you at Mal's.
Charlotte: K, thanks.




Dude: Nice to meet you Harmony.
Harmony: You to Winston. Seems are kids are quite taken with each other!
Dude: Indeed. My great x5 granddaughter is quite fond of your son.




Mal: There you are Charlotte!
Charlotte: Oh sorry! Was just checking this log to see if I could find another frog for my collection.




Mal: I wanted to ask you if you'd be my girl?
Charlotte: Totally!
Mal: Great!




Mal: Oooo
Charlotte: ooooO




Mal: Hungry? It's almost dinner time...
Charlotte: I am. Umm, would you mind if I quickly checked out the other frog spots first?
Mal: Lol, go ahead! I'll see you back at the house. *grin*




Charlotte: Oh.. that looks like Grim!




Grim: Hi Charlotte, you're all grown up! How are you?
Charlotte: Good thanks.




Townie: It's just weird a girl like you speaking to Grim. Just not right.
Grim: Stick it lady or I'll be knocking on your door next.
Charlotte: So *cough* Umm... I'm just collecting some frogs, you know.
Grim: Nice, is that for your aspiration?
Charlotte: Yeah, I'm collecting all the frogs for my collection..err... so that I'll have completed a collection.
Grim: There seems to be too many 'collections' in that sentence.
Charlotte: Yeah, I was just thinking that.




Charlotte: Well, been nice seeing you, you know.
Grim: You too Charlotte. Say hi to Dude from me.
Charlotte: Will do. Bye.





Charlotte: Thanks for having us over Mrs Ferraro.
Harmony: You're very welcome love.




Harmony: You're such a bright young thing. Isn't she Mal?
Charlotte: *Blushing* oh... heh.
Mal: Oh Mum! Embarrassing much.
Charlotte: That's ok... 'rents eh!




You ok? You keep dashing away!
Dude: Yeah, err, just keep needing to pee.
Oh! TMI!
Dude: Well, you did ask!
Anyway, Harmony's at the gushing stage. I think you need to go and save the kids from fatal embarrassment!
Dude: Lol. K.




Dude: So sweetie, it's getting late so I think we should start heading for home. Thank you for a lovely meal and evening Harmony.




Charlotte: So, I'll see you tomorrow then?
Mal: You betcha!

[KRae]

Wow, you're really moving along fast, a watcher with a mission!

[LenaLJ]

You are getting close now, keep up the good work, because your story is as ever lovely.
And did I see a baby bump on dude again? Isnt he getting to old for that?

[Cristina]

Wow so much has happened already. I'm gonna miss Justin but I'm glad Charlotte is dealing with it. I love her and Mal, they're so cute together.

I can't believe Dude's pregnant again! The aliens really do love him
