(story of complete fiction about fictional characters)
*
It had been a couple months since Penny had abruptly quit her waitress job at the Cheesecake Factory to pursue her dream ,full time, of being a successful actress . She had submitted hundreds of resumes/ photo portfolios; and gone on countless auditions; but so far no job offers. She was now at the breaking point: her money had run out and her credit card was "maxed out." Her boyfriend, Leonard Hofstadter, a professor at the university, had offered to let her move in with him, or to pay her rent; but her foolish pride had prevented her from accepting. Leonard's apartment-mate was Sheldon Cooper, and she was certain that her moving in with them would have been a violation of their infamous "roommate agreement ." They were two of the biggest nerds on earth, but she loved Leonard dearly, and was pretty sure that she would one day be his bride. Leonard supported her decision to pursue her acting career, and at least made sure she didn't go hungry...her pride permitted her to accept food. She often hung out at Leonard and Sheldon's apartment with the other two nerds in their group: Raj Koothrappali, a native of New Delhi, and the newly married Howard Wolowitz. It seemed like there was always extra take-out. She knew, though, that if her luck didn't change soon, she would either have to go back to Omaha and admit defeat, or surrender and return to being a waitress.
She couldn't understand why she didn't receive some sort of acting offer; her acting wasn't that bad, and she certainly had the looks. She was a true American beauty...your classic "corn-fed" Nebraska farm girl. She had long wavy blond hair, eyes the color of a clear blue sky, and a face that melted men's hearts. Her body was even better. Her legs were long and shapely, her ass perfectly round and firm, and her 36 C breasts were firm and jiggled only slightly when she moved. She was a "wet-dream" walking. Everyone always wanted to know why she dated a total nerd, and her answer was always the same: he treated her with respect, and didn't take her for granted. It was nice to be appreciated...to be loved for more than sex (although the sex was nice, too...Leonard was so eager to please her; more interested in her pleasure than his own).
As she was reading the "help wanted" ads in the morning newspaper (she had already checked her email and all the on-line acting sites), she vowed that this week would be her lucky week; or she would call the acting career a failure. She noticed an add for actresses to appear in "independent films." Only actresses "over 21" were requested to respond. Before she could call the listed number, she had to listen to the two messages on her machine. Both were depressing: the first was her landlord requesting her overdue rent, and the second was the bank canceling her "maxed out" credit card. A feeling of desperation crept up her spine as she punched the contact number. The phone interview went well, if somewhat unorthodox. The interviewer seemed to be mainly concerned with her age and appearance; and even asked for her measurements. He had explained that the main part they were casting was for a young, attractive female; so he didn't want to waste her time if she didn't meet the criteria. He seemed pleased with all her responses and provided her with an e-mail address, asking that she send him some current photos (including photos of her in a bathing suit or shorts) so that they could confirm her appearance. He said she would be surprised at how many actresses lie about their looks, and when they come for the personal interview, it is a waste of his time. She agreed and they hung up.
Penny wasted no time in selecting some photos from her files; some of her in a bikini, and some in a mini-skirt; and sending them off. Only a couple hours later, her phone rang and it was the man she had spoken to earlier, who now introduced himself as Jeff, the director of the film. He informed her that they were very interested in having her come in person for an interview because she seemed to perfectly fit their needs. He explained that the film was about a young girl who comes to Hollywood with dreams of becoming an actress, only to face the cruel reality that there are very few jobs available. Penny couldn't believe how similar the plot was to her actual life. Jeff quoted her a salary figure that completely knocked her socks off. They set up an interview time for the next day, and Jeff asked her to wear a skirt or dress. She thought this was odd, but figured it was to check to make sure the photos were recent. He gave her the address and told her that even though it looked like an old warehouse; it was actually their set and sound stage, where all their different set furnishings and production equipment were stored.
That night, although being incredibly excited about her new possibility, she refrained from telling Leonard, just in case it fell through, like all the others lately. She happily mooched another Chinese take-out meal from the nerds, and relaxed watching some sci-fi film with them that she really didn't understand. She retired to her apartment alone, telling a disappointed Leonard that she really needed some sleep for a big day of job-hunting tomorrow. She went down to the lobby to check her mailbox before retiring, and found a letter from the local traffic court informing her that if all her overdue parking tickets were not paid in the next ten days, she would be subject to incarceration. As she trudged up the stairs, she found herself wondering about the job offer. Something just didn't seem right to her: the salary mentioned was more than the total of all her previous acting jobs, and those independent films usually didn't pay that much. She shook her pretty head, as if physically shaking off the negativity, and just hoped that she got the job...she desperately needed the money.
When she was opening her apartment door, the phone rang and she instinctively ran to answer it, instead of letting the machine pick up (which was her normal routine lately, since it seemed every call was about overdue payments of some sort). She knew it was a mistake the second she heard the voice on the line...it was her landlord informing her that if her overdue rent was not paid in five days, he would start eviction proceedings. It seemed like her whole world was coming unraveled, but she consoled herself by remembering the job offer. If she could just confirm this job, she would be able to pay off all her debts; and maybe it would lead to more opportunities. She had a glass of wine, and began better about her future. She excitedly went into the bedroom to lay out her clothes for the next day. She selected a short, flowery-print dress that would show off her sensuous legs, and buttoned down the front in case she decided she needed to show some cleavage. She would wear her sexiest, lacy pink bra and panties. No one else would know she was wearing them, but they always made her feel sexy and self-confident. She never wore panty hose: with her legs, she didn't need them.
Penny drew herself a nice, hot bubble bath to help her relax; she needed a good nights sleep. She made sure to shave her legs and underarms, and then shaved her pubic area completely bald, because it turned Leonard on to see her smooth crotch. As she was toweling off, she checked herself out in the mirror. "Not a bad piece of ass," she told herself, " I'd hit that," as she gave her ass a loud slap. Her legs were long and shapely, and her skin actually shone from being so smooth. Her ass was so firm you could probably bounce a quarter off it. She turned and examined her front, and was equally pleased. Her breasts were a perfect 36 C and as firm as her ass, with large pink areola topped by jellybean sized nipples. Her bald mound very prominent because of her unusually puffy pussy lips. "Yep, that Leonard is one lucky nerd," she thought, now wishing she had invited him to spend the night. She thought about pleasing herself, but decided against it; she didn't want to get herself all worked up just when she needed to relax. She wanted to be well rested, and at her best, for her interview...she really needed this job.
After the hot bath, she did indeed sleep well, and awoke refreshed. She downed a container of strawberry yogurt, and got dressed. She was going to wear sandals, but decided on a pair of robins-egg blue heels because they caused her leg muscles to be more taut and shapely. She looked herself over in the mirror,and thought, "a school boy's wet dream, if I do say so myself." She unbuttoned the top two buttons of the dress to add even more sex appeal, and left for the interview. The address was in Compton, only about a thirty minute drive, so she didn't really have time to get overly nervous; she was too busy trying to follow the directions Jeff had provided. The directions turned out to be excellent and she found the nondescript warehouse with no problems. There were several cars and SUVs parked outside; some of them appearing to be quite expensive. Upon entering, she observed that the warehouse had been partitioned off into many different sections and rooms. The entrance/ reception area had a central desk and several chairs, like a waiting area.
When she entered, a very tall, statuesque redhead, wearing a mini-skirt came around the desk to greet her," hi, I'm Lindsey, you must be Penny...Jeff showed me your picture."
