But I felt a little guilty as we pulled in. I really didn't want to see the kids. I wanted to properly fuck my owner and explore my new body. But it would hardly be the first time James and I set aside our wants to make the kids happy.
I got out of the car and did one last check of my clothes. I followed James to the front door, rather than entering through the garage. I walked inside and.... Nothing.
James shouted, "We're here!"
Someone shouted back, "We're in the den!"
For a brief moment I considered yelling out a lie that my legs were backordered and I couldn't walk there. I waited a few extra moments to see if they were interested enough to get off the couch. At first I was irritated at the kids, but that didn't seem to stick. Then I saw the look on James' face and started getting irritated at them again. With that little disappointment I followed James toward the back of the first floor of the house.
I walked into the room and yelled "Surprise!" before doing a twirl.
Olivia's face was on the TV, with one of her friends lurking behind her. The rest of the kids were at least off the sofa and facing me, but keeping clear of the TV.
Melody, my youngest, spoke first "Wow, you look great, Mom!"
"You're moving very well." Grace's husband Pierre was next. I wasn't fond of the implication that I would be moving like a stiff automaton, but I could chalk it up to him being a moron rather than him being passive aggressive.
"Your body is taller than I thought it would be." Charlie was very intently looking at my eyes. I think he didn't want to be checking out his Mom's hot body.
"You saw the renderings, dear."
"I know, but that's on a screen."
Olivia unnecessarily shouted, "Are you feeling alright? Any light-headednesses?"
Only when your father's cock is in my mouth, sweetie. "No, I'm feeling great; The best I've felt in years."
James went to get a beer. I could feel myself start to turn to get it for him, then realized how suspicious that would look.
"Do you need to sit down?" Pierre again.
I shook my head, "Only if you want to." I thought about how much battery life I had left, and immediately learned I could go another 5 hours at this level of power usage.
Once James was back in the room, Charlie and Melody felt comfortable picking their open beers up off the table.
"Grace, how does her skin feel?" Olivia shouted again.
My eldest blushed and stepped forward, I smiled and held out my arm. She took my index finger and inspected it on its own, before moving up to the back of my hand, then my forearm.
"Warm, flexible, really smooth. I don't know if I'd be able to tell it's fake if I didn't know it was fake."
I supposed that wouldn't be the last time someone called me 'fake'.
Grace kept feeling it for a little longer than necessary. She snapped out of it well enough to go grab her drink.
"I unpacked your equipment and set it up in the basement, Liz". Pierre smiled like a puppy. I always thought he was compensating for Grace not getting along with me. It didn't make me any more impressed by him. I mean, he was a ForEx analyst. He might as well be a professional coinflip guesser, he'd have the same record of accuracy.
"Thank you, Dear."
Olivia was doing her best to remain part of the conversations while phoning in, "Not in the bedroom?"
He handed me a little kit, about the size of a clutch bag, labeled 'Access/Repair' on the side. "Not enough amps up there. I basically had to wire in a new circuit breaker for her maintenance station."
I unzipped the bag and pondered if I could get someone in the next day to make sure the house wasn't going to catch on fire when I plugged myself into the fast-charger. The bag had a few chemical vials, some empty vials, two proprietary cables, and a tool with a craft knife blade at one end and a flat squared-off metal piece at the other. I wondered what I was supposed to do and at least knew step 1: pour 15 ml of jar A and 10 mL of jar B into an empty jar. It looked like it was for sealing up skin, or opening it up.
Thankfully, no one was asking me to strip out of my skin just yet.
The rest of the night went like that. The kids would poke at me a bit, ask me questions about how I was feeling, then drink some more. Someone threw some frozen pizzas in the oven. I told everyone they weren't tasty enough for me to go to the hassle of emptying my oral intake reservoir after eating a slice.
Which meant Charlie had to spend 30 minutes making poop or bulimia jokes whenever there was a lull in conversation. Olivia got in an only slightly better jab about not being the first lawyer to spew shit from their mouth. I let them have their fun.
Grace stayed uncharacteristically quiet and uncharacteristically sober. I tried to get her to open up a bit, but that was a tall order with the entire family in the room. But at least we weren't actively fighting each other.
I even got to show everyone how I could do a trickle recharge. Melody visibly winced as I took the small tool from the kit and cut into my armpit. There was no blood, and everyone got a small peek inside me before watching me stick a cable in there. I spent the rest of the night with my arm on the back of the sofa. I was going to need to experiment with the best way to have my arm at my side when plugged in.
But what I really wanted was my Master. I was so happy being next to him on the couch, but it just killed me that I couldn't snuggle against him as tightly as I could. Why couldn't I have been that type of woman before? He was my husband and yet it would have been suspicious if I wrapped myself around him. It's not like I was going to start giving him a lap dance.
