Daren made his way into the kitchen and took the leftovers out of the ice box. He was heating up a plate in the microwave when his father Gary came into the kitchen.
"Hey son." He said.
Daren spun startled then relaxed when he saw his dad just getting a soda from the refrigerator. "Oh, hey dad."
His dad looked at him heating up the food. "Hungry, again?"
"Oh, yeah. I tried to sleep but my stomach wouldn't stop growling." Daren explained.
"Is that what you call it?" His Dad asked.
"What do you mean?"
"Look son, you're eighteen so porn is fine by me. But please keep it at a low enough volume that the whole house doesn't have to hear it. Your poor mother thought you were dying up there." Gary explained.
Daren hung his head. "Oh, god I'm sorry dad."
His dad slapped him on the shoulder. "Hey it's no big deal bud, just keep it down is all. Oh, and make sure you wash your hands afterward."
Daren smiled and took his food out of the microwave. "Mind if I eat in my room?"
His dad nodded. "I don't care; just don't leave the plate up there all night."
"Thanks." He took some silverware out of the drawer and headed to his room, thinking about how close he had come to his dad calling him out on what he had done with Max.
He opened his door and shut it quickly behind him. Max had gotten half-dressed and sat in front of the computer in only a large buttoned down shirt.
She turned to him when he entered. "Now that smells good." She stood and took the plate of food from him.
"My parents heard us, Max." Daren said.
"So?" She said through a mouthful of meatloaf.
"What do you mean 'so'?"
She gestured with her fork toward him. "They know you have a female hologram. And they've seen me in various celebrities' forms, so I don't think they'll be overly concerned if they hear me in here."
Daren thought about it and she was completely right. Hell, he had had a girl program for quite a while now. His mom had sat and had entire conversations with Max while he was at school, she certainly wouldn't be shocked to see Max in his room.
"Well we just have to keep quieter when we are doing our thing." Daren said.
Max nodded taking another bite of her mashed potatoes. "God I have read countless recipes and you never really can have an appreciation for food until you can actually taste."
Daren smiled and watched as she gobbled down the food. Most would find it weird to see someone who looked like Max to eat like Goku from Dragonball Z, but Daren completely understood. He couldn't begin to imagine what her senses were going through having never done literally anything.
When she finished she handed him the plate so he could take it downstairs. He came back with a glass of juice for her. She drank and smiled up at him.
"So you ready for bed?" She asked him.
Daren nodded. "Yeah, but first I need to ask you something."
She blinked. "What is it?"
"Are you protected?" Daren asked then he shook his head. "Wait you couldn't be."
"What do you mean?"
"Well I'm afraid to get you pregnant." Daren explained.
Max smiled. "I forgot about that possibility. I was just trying to do what we've almost done before when you'd masturbate to me. I get we should get some kind of birth control, until I learn what my cycle is going to be at least."
"Me too. I mean I just think it would be safer for now."
"Wouldn't it be great though? We could get married and have a house and kids and everything." Max said in delight.
Daren blinked. "You'd really want to do that?"
"Sure. I mean I love you Daren. I don't see any reason why after you finish school why we can't get married." Max said. She stood and took his hand. "Now come on, let's go to bed."
They went to sleep nude and cuddled up. Max feel asleep quickly while Daren lay awake think about what life would be like if they indeed got married.

In the morning Daren woke alone in bed and for a moment he wondered in panic if he had dreamed the whole thing. But the thought faded as soon as it came as Max walked into the room wearing one of his small T-shirts that was just big enough for her and clung to her body well and a pair of his mom's jeans.
She looked at him and smiled. "Good morning." She said.
He smiled back and noticed she was wearing make-up and she had done her hair. "Wow you look amazing." He said.
Max grinned brightly and did a little spin. "You like it?"
Daren nodded. "Fuck yeah I do." He climbed out of bed and grabbed a change of clothes out of his closet. "I'm gonna take a shower. You are coming to school with me today right?"
"Yep, I'm already enrolled and good to go. We even have some of the same classes. I picked a few different classes so it wouldn't seem too weird that your new girlfriend also is the new girl in school who also happens to have all your same classes. I thought that that may be pushing it." Max explained.
Daren nodded in agreement. "Yeah and after school I was thinking we should go get you some of your own clothes and some school supplies."
"That sounds good."
The warm water felt good and after he got out Daren felt better than he had in a long time. He didn't know if it was the sex last night or the fact that the beautiful girl in his room right now was, now and forever, his.
Max was looking at herself in the mirror when he came back into his room. She was adjusting something on her neck but with her hair down he couldn't tell what it was.
"Whatcha doin'?" He asked.
"Well I thought of a good way to make you the star of your school." She answered without looking at him.
