Penny wakes up on Saturday at six-thirty, and immediately rolls out of bed. She quickly showers, brushes teeth, combs her hair, and washes her face. After that, she picks out a pair of white and denim blue striped shorts and a red t-shirt, and gets dressed. She looks in the long mirror next to her door, and smiles, because she loves this outfit, and it fits much better in California than it did in New York. That's the only plus to moving, is her favorite outfits look more Californian than New Yorker. She fixes her shoulder length sandy blonde hair, and brushes her bangs out of her eyes.

She thinks how similar Kyle and her look, and how much like her dad they both look. They are biologically Kurt's, and it's pretty obvious. They both got his glasz eyes, pale skin, and long body-type, although they have blonde hair. The only noticeable difference between Kyle and Penny is that Kyle has more masculine features, with a longer, thinner face, and Penny's are more feminine, with a rounder face shape. They have different hairstyles too, of course.

Penny sighs, and opens her door, walking downstairs to see that she's the only one up so far. She takes out a pan and two eggs, places the pan on the stove at medium heat. While the stove is heating, she cracks the eggs into a glass bowl with a some milk, and slices a tablespoon of butter to put in the pan. When the pan is hot enough, Penny pours her egg mixture into it, and waits while it cooks slightly. She takes out another bowl for strawberries, slicing them up. Penny looks to check on her eggs, and begins scrambling them with a rubber spatula. After the eggs are done cooking, she's sliced and sugared her strawberries, made a pot of coffee, and ran back to her room to grab her phone, she sits at the table and eats breakfast. She plugs her earbuds in to her phone, and picks a song to listen to. She quickly decides on A Great Big World's song, Already Home. She listens to this song all the time, and even more now that she's not actually in New York. Kyle sometimes teases her for listening to old music like that, but she protests that not only new music is good; for god's sake, she still listens to swing music from the 1940s. In fact, most of her favorite music is from the early 2000s, and some even older.

After she finishes eating, she stands up to wash up the counters and put her dishes in the sink. She leaves the pot of coffee on the counter with a note that says,

Dad and Papa,

I am going for a walk around town to see what there is to do around here.

I have my phone on me, and I'll be back before eight.

Love, Penny

PS, this coffee was brewed not too long ago, so enjoy.

And with that, she puts on her espadrilles, and walks out. She changes the album to the revival album of Newsies. It was the first broadway recording Blaine had done, and it always made her so happy. She remembers when Kyle, Kurt, and her had gone to the opening night of the revival, and how proud of her papa she was. She bought the album the day it came on sale, and she listens to it all the time. She sings along to Felicia's parts quietly, with only one of the earbuds in her ear, and she walks down the sidewalks in the neighborhood until she finds a street with shops. It's an older looking area, and she sees a Starbucks, a bookstore, a grocery, a couple restaurants, both mexican and italian, and a game and comic store. Penny looks at it as though she's found gold. Even her parents do not understand nor know the full extent of her love for Dungeons and Dragons and Magic the Gathering. She sees a man come out, probably in his early twenties, with dark brown hair, and start sweeping the front sidewalk and steps. Penny walks over and asks, "do you own this place?"

"That I do," he says, stopping his sweeping and looking at her. "Why do you ask?"

Penny smiles, "I was just curious. I love games and comics, so I was curious what kind of stuff you sell, and what your hours are."

The man holds out a hand, "I'm Jack Ford, and we have a pretty wide selection of games and comics, but we kind of specialize in Magic, D&D, Marvel and DC comics, and stuff like that. Sorry, we don't really sell video games, except a few older consoles and games."

"No, no, I love Magic the Gathering! Dungeons and dragons too. I've never been one for comics, but I'm obsessed with those two games. Also, I'm Penny."

"Nice to meet you, and really?"

She vigorously nods, "yeah, actually, my parents don't even know how much money and time I've invested in both. I have over 3000 Magic cards, and all the D&D books in my closet."

Jack looks impressed, "looking for a job?"

Penny laughs, and he says, "I'm not kidding. We just lost two of our four employees to college, and I only have one other employee. She can't work weekends."

"I might be able to, actually. Probably only on weekends though. I don't know, I'd have to talk to my parents."

"Only on weekends would work perfectly! Anyways, yeah, take my contact information," he writes a phone number down on a slip of paper he had in his pocket. "The top is my cell, and the bottom is the shop's phone. Try the shop first, and the cell second. Hours are nine to ten, seven days a week."

"Thanks, I'll ask my parents, and I'll probably be back later today either way."

He waves as Penny walks in the direction of her house. When she enters her house, she smells blueberry pancakes, and knows that Blaine is up. He tends to make blueberry pancakes for Kurt when he wakes up first, which is always, the exception being if Kurt has work or something.

"Hi papa," she says, walking into the kitchen.

Blaine looks up at her, "hi, P. Thanks for the coffee."

"No problem," Penny says, sitting down at the table and watching Blaine make the pancakes. "So I was wond-"

Kurt walks in tiredly, "good morning."

"Hey daddy," Penny says. "This is actually better if I ask you both now. Can I get a job?"

Blaine and Kurt look at each other, and Kurt asks, "where? Penny, I don't think you'll have an easy time getting hired as a fourteen year-old."

"I have a job offer already."

"What?" Blaine asks, surprised, "where is it?"

Penny smiles, "a game shop. It's walking distance, and I would only be working on the weekends. Please?"

Kurt says, "I think we need to see where you would be working first, but you do have working papers."

"Yay!" she squeals, jumping up and down. "I can show you guys today!"

Blaine grins at his daughter as she bounces out of the room and up the stairs. He turns to Kurt, "you know she's going to find a way to work there no matter what we say. Have you seen the size of her Magic the Gathering collection?"

"That I have, Mr. Hummel-Anderson. Are the pancakes done yet?"
