My shoot had quickly ended. And I did take some time, flirting with the makeup artist. She's a cutie.
Did I try it before? Yes. No more questions, if you know, you know.
...
I woke up groggily, the bed, a mess. One of the perks in my template system, is that I have no time limit. I can casually just turn it off, and turn it on.
I carefully stood up, I didn't want to wake up the cutie. I tied my hair into a pony-tail, and made myself coffee and began cooking breakfast.
Clack. Clack.
I noticed the cutie, putting on her clothes. I smiled. "Oh, you're awake. Have some breakfast."
She obviously looked shocked. Her hair's still a mess. "O-Oh...Okay." The Makeup Artist, or Caroline.
"Tired?" I smiled, and leaned forward. "Have some coffee, and breakfast, do you have work?"
"Yes." She answered briefly, and took a bite of the eggs. "I'm still surprised.."
"About what?" I asked, taking a sip of my coffee.
"Well, I did hear from some models and makeup artist that you—" She stopped, her cheeks flushed.
I smiled. This isn't my first rodeo guys. "Eat up. Or maybe you want to have some fun before heading out?"
I loved teasing women. And I like how cute how their ears turn red. As Philip all I could receive from women is either a slap, or a scrunched face that says: What the fuck are you talking about? You fucking creep!
She shyly bowed her head. She immediately got dressed, and left.
I waved my hands goodbye. I closed the door. And turned off the template.
Finally, back to my real self. I cleaned the apartment, and replaced the bedsheets.
Afterwards, I checked the time, and headed to the gym. But first, I transformed back into Mei.
How do I jungle two identities? Well, Mei and I have different apartments. I mostly stay at my personal apartment, I only stay at Mei's if I have a woman over.
I mean, a supermodel like Mei living at my apartment? Sheesh. And Mei's apartment was a gift from Pepper.
I quickly drove the car to my apartment, and switched the car's. What I like about my apartment, as Philip, is the lack of camera's. I then turned off Mei's template. And drove the other car.
I've been working out in the gym most of the time. And, yes, I almost forgot, I am in the Marvel Universe.
I don't know which is which, all my knowledge about marvel is watching the movies. As for Marvel TV Shows? I only watched Loki and Moon Knight.
I don't know anything about the comic books. All my knowledge is just based off the movies, Loki and Moon Knight. Do you think I'd survive? Hell no.
That's why I have the template system in the first place. And, to explain it to everyone. I could get more templates, but I have to get some points. And damn, templates cost a lot.
I had Mei because of the newbie package.
Tsunade – 1000000000—can I afford that? No. That's why I'm busy with my career. And, also because I can earn points based on fame.
Fame Points.
The more people know about me, the better. As for the timeline, It's November 2009. A few months from now, Tony would be abducted. Do I care? No, he's going to survive anyway. I'm busy with my career.
And also, because I don't know when he'd be abducted. Like the specific, day, time, and my memories not omniscient. All I remember was him selling some rockets? Maybe...Not, so sure.
Anyways being Mei, I earned a good amount of faith points. Around, 7k. It's a big number, considering I've only been active for like 11 months. I could buy some decent templates, but I'm saving it all up for now.
I'm content with being Mei. And the perks that I get from Mei.
Pepper had texted me about Tony Stark, asking me for dinner, again. The guy couldn't take a hint!
I told Pepper to block him. And Pepper did.
...
Tony stared at his phone. "Can you believe this pepper, she blocked me. Me!"
Pepper rolled her eyes. "How devastating it must be Mr. Stark."
"I'm not devastated. In fact, I'm Intrigued." Tony had a playful smile. He did find that Mei was hot. But, he had his fair share of numerous hot models, actresses, and singers. But, this was the first time he was actually rejected!
"I can call up some other models Mr. Stark." Pepper suggested.
"No. No." Tony twirled around his seat. "Jarvis, gather all the information about Mei."
"Can you specify sir?"
"Mei, that model Mei. I don't know her last name."
"Affirmative." Jarvis took a while then began narrating. "Meilanie Srakova, alias, Mei. She's 28 years old. Signed with Pepper Saltzman...."
"Her dating life?" Tony cut off Jarvis.
"Mei has no record of dating anyone. But, she does have a few rumours from tabloids that she frequently slept with female models...."
Tony tapped his fingers on the table. "So she swings the same way as I do."
"Do you want more information about Mei?"
"No, Jarvis." Tony sighed. "Ms. Potts, change of plans, have those models ready. I'm going out for a bit."
"Yes. Mr. Stark." Pepper tried her best to supress her chuckle.
...
I was posing with a few other models. November is a busy month for models. I have many photoshoots!
But I'm a professional.
After the session, I stood in the corner, for this shoot, there were some male models too.
"Damn. She's hot."
"Ask for her number. Give it a shot."
I could hear everything. But, I have to remain aloof. I smiled at the female models who began to gather in front of me. One of them, put her hands suggestively on my shoulders.
"It's nice to see you again, Mei."
"Bianca." I smiled.
"Um, excuse me."
Finally the guy tried to shoot his shot. I asked. "Yes?"
"Can, I ask for your number?"
"No." I didn't want to give them any other thoughts that they had a chance with me, I turned away and chatted with the female models.
And, it seems like I'll get some action again tonight. I smiled, at Bianca who was giving me the obvious hints.
But, sadly it didn't happen. Bianca was called by some guy named Tony Stark for the night. So, I sadly ate dinner with Pepper.
"So, Pepper, how are you and Reynaldo?" I asked. Reynaldo is Pepper's partner. He recently moved in with Pepper.
"It's good. We're good." Pepper added. "He's going to help me with the agency."
"Oh, are you casting models aside from me?" I acted as if I was hurt. The agency was getting calls here and there. And, with my growing popularity, the agency's reputation had also skyrocketed.
"Well, yes." Pepper narrowed his eyes. "And, if I did. Please don't flirt with them."
"What, why?"
"It would make things awkward." Pepper sighed. "But, when are you coming out?"
"Coming out?" I shook my head. "I'm not a lesbian. End of discussion.."
"Right..." Pepper sighed. "You sleep with women, and you're not a lesbian."
I shot him a glare, which worked as he continued eating his steak. "Well, if you say it like that, then I'm not gay but I sleep with men."
"There are some men who'd do that."
"Ugh." Pepper looked grossed out by my comment.
