It's A Wonderful Afterlife (Sequel to 'A New Life')

Chapter 16: Half Demon In The Auditorium

Rambling out on his bed, he moaned and paused. When he heard the magic words 'Tea's ready!' he went downstairs, proceeding to act both frustrated and disappointed. Betelgeuse had recently returned home and put his things down. He was snuggling both Adam and Barbara while they were playing with his hair and Remus swore he saw them kissing.

"Hello Dad?" he asked, befuddled.

"Hey Hamud!" Betelgeuse approached and snuggled his child firmly.

"You okay?"

"Definitely. we-were you three just kissing?" Remus exclaimed.

"What? No. We were not kissing. Simply having a catch up for lost time Ahava Sheli." the demon laughed.

"Perhaps your schizophrenia is playing up?" Barbara suggested and Remus concurred with a gesture of his head. They all went to the dining room and took their seats at the table, Remus continuing with his act. They were having wraps. To no one's surprise, Remus hung tight for every other person to get their food first. Delia made up a wrap, confounding everybody when she added loads of the chicken that was not vegan, very little lettuce and finished it off with hot sauce and a little blob of mayonnaise. The disarray disappeared when she gave it to Remus.

"Aw thank you Delia." he grinned and took a chomp.

"No problem. I feel terrible while you're holding on to get your food while we eat. It disturbs me!" Delia conceded.

"Aww. There's no compelling reason to feel terrible. It's exactly the way in which I am. I'm certain that I'll grow out of these odd phases of mine when I'm more recovered." Remus grinned and everybody gestured, understanding what recuperation he was alluding to.

"So." Betelgeuse ended the quietness "What occurred at school today." he asked and Remus frowned.

"Get singled out once more?" Barbara inquired.

"Fill me in!'' Charles grinned.

"Indeed, I wasn't truly singled out, aside from being mocked during an audition." he went on with his little demonstration.

"You did an audition?" Adam asked, charmed.

"Better believe it! Coach heard me assisting Lyds with learning her lines by doing Keaton's lines. He motivated me consent to try out." Remus conceded.

"Well? What happened?" Delia inquired.

"Please accept my apologies."

"What? You're Sorry? For what reason would you say you are sorry? You got talent! Simply don't pay attention to them Rem. they're simply big-" Betelgeuse started with blood red hair, just to be interposed by Remus.

"Sorry. That you're so gullible!'' Everybody took a gander at him with unadulterated disarray put onto their countenances. "Because I'm really in the show! I got Keaton folks

"Wow! YEAH!!!" Betelgeuse cheered. The room detonated into yelling and cheering. Remus was snuggled firmly by his dad who was crying with satisfaction. He got up and ran behind Remus before Betelgeuse smiled and surged between Remus' legs, manoeuvring him onto his shoulders, going around the table while the family completely attempted to get a high five, behaving like he was a celebrity. Remus was snickering and appreciating it before he got a sight of Lydia and acknowledged she didn't get this degree of commendation when she told everybody she would have been the subsequent fundamental person.

"Guys. Stop. This is just a little ridiculous. Lydia didn't get this!" He said and Betelgeuse took him from his shoulders and smiled as he checked Lydia out. He approached her and hauled her from her seat, raising her onto his shoulders and copying how he managed Remus. This helped the half demon to have an improved outlook. Betelgeuse put Lydia down and ruffled her hair. Charles adored seeing this delicate side to the evil demon, and would now and then cuddle him to sleep when Delia wasn't free. The whole family hassled Remus for data about his tryout and needed to hear his impression despite the fact that they all knew what it seemed like. To balance it, they got Lydia to recount a portion of her lines.
