Disclaimer: I own nothing

Bonus Chapter 01: Penny on the Casting Couch (The Big Bang Theory)

"...so, why exactly are you bothering me so late?" Kuro asked with a yawn as he rested against the door-frame, making her blush, maybe coming straight to Kuro's apartment wasn't the best idea. If she knew one thing about Kuro, it was that he really liked sleeping, coming over so late was a bad idea if she wanted his help. He'd clearly been getting ready for bed, just dressed in some silk pyjama bottoms and nothing else, maybe it was the fact that she spent all her time with the geeks now... but she had to force herself to look up from his chiselled abs... Maybe she should try and get Leonard to join him as a regular at the gym.

"I... Sorry, can we talk? It won't take long..." Penny promised quickly, making him sigh in annoyance, running a hand through his hair as he headed into the apartment, getting the hint she quickly followed behind him and closing the door, looking around his apartment with an impressed nod. She'd never been in his home before, he was usually in Sheldon and Leonard's when they saw each other.

Why did he spend so much time there? ...Why did she spend so much time there?

It was hard to tell the expensive-looking room was part of the same apartment building she lived in. She honestly doubted she could afford a single piece of his furniture with six months of her wages.

As he practically slumped down on his chair, he gestured for her to take a seat on the ridiculously comfy couch.

"So, what was so important that you couldn't wait till tomorrow?" he asked, resting his head on his fist.

"I... Sheldon told me that you're in show biz, was he telling the truth?" she asked hesitantly, making him roll his eyes.

"I'm in everything. Yes, I own a few Film and TV companies, I own a few companies for just about everything, to be honest. I just kinda buy whatever takes my interest. The advantage of being filthy rich, I suppose, though I doubt you'd know about that." he said with a sleepy smirk making her wince. He always did find her mooching off Leonard funny.

"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked, making him laugh. She honestly knew nothing about him, he was just a friend of Sheldon's she occasionally saw at their place after all.

"Because I didn't want to? Because I had no reason to? Take your pick. If I wanted the attention from owning so many businesses, I wouldn't be living in a tiny apartment, incognito." he replied with a shrug. "Let me guess, you want me to use my influence and pull some strings for you so you can get a job that doesn't include working as a minimum wage waitress?" he asked sardonically.

"I.. uhh... it sounds bad when you put it like that." she admitted after a moment.

"Look, Penny... do you know how many 'aspiring actresses' there are in California? In this city alone? Thousands, tens of thousands. And unsurprisingly most of them are working dead-end jobs as well after they failed." he said bluntly, making her wince.

"Hey... I haven't failed, I am an actress." she countered weakly making him smirk.

"You've been in what? A handful of low-budget productions? Your five minutes of fame was getting your tits out on camera and being murdered by a killer gorilla in some crappy horror movie. I don't deal in low-budget movies, I don't deal in low-budget anything. My companies deal in box office blockbusters. Sure, I could get you a role as an extra or a side character, but you'd be working alongside A-Listers." he said before sighing. "Penny, do you know what the difference between you and say... Megan Fox or Jessica Alba is?" he asked, making her pause.

"...they're better at acting than me?" she asked after a moment.

"Not particularly. I mean, they are... but there are classes for that, Acting Coaches for after they've gotten the roles. No, they just made the right connections, knew the right people. That's the 'trick' to Hollywood, it's not what you know, it's who you know..." he admitted, making her pause. "To be an actress, you only really need two things, to be attractive and to know the right person."

"I... know you?" she half asked.

"No, you really don't... you didn't even know my job until someone told you, but you are attractive. The problem is that again, there's no limit to the amount of attractive blonde girl-next-door types who want to be actresses. The question is, what are you willing to do to achieve your dream." he said as blunt as ever making her pause...

"I... what do you mean?" she asked, making him laugh.

"Penny, you aren't one of the nerds, you know what I mean. The casting couch is a time-honoured tradition, and it's still going strong, Marilyn Monroe couldn't avoid it, why do you think you'd be able to? You need help if you want to get started and I'm willing to give it to you, for a price. Spend a single night doing what I tell you, and I'll get you a speaking role in a blockbuster." he offered readily.

"I- I am not sleeping with you for a role." She said quickly, offended at the casual offer, she wasn't that kind of...

"Good for you, feel free to show yourself out." He said smoothly, not even phased by her refusal.

"Wait, that's it? I turn you down and you just... don't care? No threats or insults?" She asked, caught off guard as Kuro sighed.

"Penny, we've just been over this. You aren't unique, there are a thousand girls who could take your place in this city. I could have a group of wannabe starlets here within the next hour. I just might. You aren't important enough to threaten. So go ahead, leave. You can tell Leonard about this, about how I tried coercing you into sleeping with me and you turned me down, it'll probably be a nice bonding moment for you two. You'll get to spend the rest of your life as a waitress, serving cheesecakes and flirting for tips to pay your bills, never achieving your dream, but you'll be able to do it with a clean conscience. Maybe I'll even visit you at work and give you a big tip if you flirt hard enough, at best you just might get a role in another cheap horror movie where your only job is to get naked and be killed by the villain, your character name won't even be remembered after the movie is over, you'll just be that girl who had like three sex scenes and then died, maybe eventually you'll get desperate for money, but without knowing the right people? You're more likely to end up in a low-budget porno than an actual movie. Meanwhile some other girl, probably younger and prettier than you will get a text and come here. She won't be such a paragon of virtue and spend the night, getting the role instead." He said coldly. "Like I said, you declining only changes your life, everything is going to go the same for me either way."

"That's... horrible." She said after a moment making him laugh.

"That's show biz baby, that's the life you want to get into. But the real question... is why are you still here? If it's so horrible, why haven't you moved?" He asked with a smirk making her hesitate, watching him stand up and walk over to her, sitting down on the couch next to her. "I think you're lying, that you're considering it... would a single night be worth improving your career? It's been running through your mind, hasn't it? Go ahead, prove me wrong? Get up and walk away." He mocked, his hand coming down on her inner thigh, caressing her gently.

"I..." She started before trailing off, unable to refute him.

"Do what I say for the rest of the night, and you'll wake up with a speaking part in one of the new drama blockbusters, easy right?" He asked, placing a kiss on her neck as she stayed there frozen in place, her eyes wide and her heart racing.

As his hands came to her blouse, unbuttoning it slowly, her words died in her mouth. She'd wanted to be a successful actress for as long as she could remember... was one night of shame really so bad?

Before she could really process what was happening her blouse was gone, tossed off to some corner of the room, her jeans unzipped and half pulled down.

"I-I have a boyfriend..." she protested weakly as he pulled her jeans off entirely leaving her sitting in just her dull white underwear.

As he pulled her up, he led her through the apartment, entering his bedroom and pushing her onto the bed. Somewhere between the couch and the bed her bra was taken, tossed away, leaving her breasts exposed to his hungry eyes.

"And I'm married, what's your point?" He asked as he climbed onto the bed, hovering over her with a smirk.

As his hand started to pull her panties down, she panicked, feeling his knuckles brush along her slit, pushing him off her, she jumped from the bed. Her heart pounding as he got back up, his finger brushing against his bleeding lip from where he had hit the bed frame as he fell. Looking into his eyes, she froze like a deer in headlights, some primal part of her brain telling her she was in danger before he laughed, the threat vanishing so fast she almost thought she imagined it.

"Well, guess I was wrong... congratulations. Not that wrong since you waited till you were practically naked in my bed but still... well done. You managed to convince yourself not to whore yourself out for your dream job. Now get out of my apartment." He said with a shrug, back to being utterly uncaring about her refusal.

"I won't tell Leonard about this... I won't tell anyone." She said before she fled, only stopping to pull her panties back up, grab the rest of her clothes before she left the apartment, a feeling of shame filling her.

She really had been considering it, the idea of the future he'd laid out for her sounded... terrible.

Fixing her ruffled clothes, she headed back to her apartment, and with a deep frown, she just wanted to go to bed...

- Next Day -

"And I win again! I don't know why you chumps even try at this point." Kuro laughed, taking a swig of his beer as Leonard and

Raj sighed, tossing down their controllers.

"You're rich, good looking and popular.. you could at least let us have this." Raj moaned (mostly jokingly) as he looked at the screen, showing Kuro's complete victory (again).

"There is one man who can match me when it comes to games, and he's a long way from here... sorry guys but I think it's time to accept it. I can beat you at literally everything." he said casually.

"So... Kuro..." Howard started hesitantly making Kuro look at him in expectation. "I was outside your apartment this morning... for totally not-creepy reasons. Who were the girls leaving your apartment? They all looked like super-models, hot, blonde and leggy..." he asked in his usual creepy way, making Bernadette sigh.

"First of all, my apartment is on the top floor, what were you doing outside it? And secondly, it was... for work purposes. You know I own some movie companies, and I couldn't be bothered to leave my apartment to do the auditions, so I just had them come to me instead." he said coolly, leaning back on the couch.

"That early in the morning?" Howard asked, making him smirk.

"When they want to be the next big star, they make sacrifices. Sometimes that includes being up stupidly early to audition." he said calmly.

"Right... so how'd they do?" Howard pestered.

"They all performed adequately, so I got them all roles. Some will be extras, some side characters, one went above and beyond so she'll be the love interest in the new action blockbuster. It's a role that could really help her break out onto the acting scene if she does a good job. Really all actors need is a single good role and a good performance and they can be set up with a lifetime of roles." Kuro explained easily.

"Huh... you know Penny, you should ask him to let you audition. It could be your big break." Leonard said after a moment, making her mentally wince as she put on a convincing smile. He was only trying to help... but he had no idea what he was suggesting.

"I'd be happy to have you in my office, just let me know if you want to get out of the cheesecake factory." Kuro said kindly, a hidden smirk making his lips twitch as he smiled at her.

"I'll think about it, thanks..." she said neutrally as he smirked at her.

- Days Later -

Knocking on Kuro's door, she took a deep breath, tightening the long coat she was wearing.

She'd been so sure she'd made the right decision turning him down, but every shift she worked filled her head with the same thing. She could be doing her dream job instead of serving cheesecake and flirting with customers in the hopes that they tip her enough to actually pay her rent for once. Leonard had even encouraged her to take Kuro's offer, thinking she was just nervous about her acting abilities.

The real thing that had pushed her to do this? Howard had shown them an article about the newest sequel of a long-running action movie series, specifically showing them the hot blonde who was cast as the lead actress, telling them that he'd seen her leave Kuro's apartment.

That was how much influence Kuro apparently had at his fingertips, it had been days, and she'd already gotten her face in magazines. That could have been her if she'd swallowed her pride she could be the one about to really break out onto the acting scene, no commercials or shitty b-movies.

As he opened the door, he smirked at her, making her realise why he really hadn't cared about her leaving... Kuro was sure she'd come crawling back.

"I was wondering how long your pride would keep you away... and here you are." he said almost mockingly, his eyes flickering over her outfit.

"I... have reconsidered your offer, I was hoping we could talk?" she asked hesitantly.

"Hmm... lose the coat." he ordered, leaning against the door frame.

"I... can I come in?" she asked, gripping the long coat tightly as he smirked at her.

"No, I want to see if it's worth my time. Drop the coat." Kuro ordered again, making her glance around the empty hallway, the other apartment doors shut. Hesitating for a moment, she undid the coat and let it slide off her shoulders, the cold air hitting her body as she tried to pose slightly.

Her 'outfit' if it could be called that consisted of her sexiest lingerie, a red lacy set that barely fit her, the bra was tight on her breasts, making them almost pop out with every movement. Her thong barely even hid her pussy, her ass was on full display as she spun around to show off what was possibly her best asset.

"Very nice, I figured you'd come around... but first, lose the bra and get on your knees. I don't like being refused when I make such a generous offer... but if you beg for a second chance, I'll consider it." he said with a cold smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.

"I... right here?" she asked looking around, it was quiet now, but she could get seen at any moment, Leonard was hanging out with Sheldon, but any of their neighbours could come upstairs without warning.

"Consider it a test of your resolve... how much do you want my help?" he asked as she sighed. She'd come this far... reaching behind her she unclipped her bra, hesitating for only a moment before she let it fall to the floor, dropping to her knees in front of Kuro as she looked up at him, her head at crotch level as he stood before her, his erect shaft pressing against his flimsy silk pyjama bottoms.

He was... intimidatingly big if the bulge against his leg was any indicator.

"I... please, Kuro, I was wrong. I didn't realise how generous you were being and let my misguided morals get in the way... I was stupid, please give me a second chance. I'll make it up to you however you want..." she begged, trying her best to look alluring despite the growing disgust she could already feel welling up inside her.

A single night could change her life, one night, that was nothing right?

"Good girl. Follow me, on your hands and knees." he ordered, grabbing her bra and coat and walking inside. Crushing her pride, she crawled after him, entering the apartment, as she did, he shut the door, locking it with an intimidating click.

As he took his seat, he pointed in front of him and lounged back in his chair. Moving in front of him, Penny straightened up, staying on her knees in front of him, her hands in her lap as she pushed her chest out.

"I have another role available, it's for an HBO TV series that will be starting fairly soon, hell your boyfriend will probably make you watch it if you aren't in it. It's a somewhat important character with regular parts every episode, and the show is already confirmed for five seasons, with a possibility for more if it is well-received, which it will be... I've gotten good at this. It'd set you up for at least five years, no more serving cheesecakes, and the studio is nearby." he started making her eyes widen. "However, I have a thousand other girls all wanting the same part, and they haven't turned me down before. So, I'm going to make one more offer and only one. If you decline there won't be a third." he said calmly. "Do you understand?" he asked, making her nod. "Answer any questions with Yes Sir or No Sir." he ordered.

"Y-yes, sir. I understand..." she replied quickly making him smile. That was... even better than a one-off role, she'd not have to worry about rent ever again... that was for sure.

"Wonderful. My offer is simple, I will be your manager, your agent, for the next five years. I'll make sure you get the spotlight, the money, the best training, you'll be a star when I'm done. And in exchange, you will do whatever I say, no arguments or complaints. If you accept, for the next five years you will be mine." he said coldly making her freeze up.

"F-five years?" she asked with a beating heart, that was not one night.

"Five years. This is my final offer, there will be no negotiating. You aren't in a position to negotiate... either accept or get dressed and leave." Kuro said calmly as he looked down at her.

Five years, she'd be a different woman before she was free... but she'd be a star. She didn't doubt he could do what he said he could, but... five years?

Five years of fucking Kuro... behind Leonard's back, if they were even still together at that point. She wasn't some blushing virgin, she'd had an active sex life before she came here, it was the fact that she'd be cheating... and whoring herself out that made her hesitate.

"Answer, I don't want to waste any time." he said sternly, making her flinch. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity. If she missed this... she would end up with the life he laid out for her before.

A failed actress, working as a waitress until she was too old to get big tips any-more, possibly resorting to porn when her money problems increased. She could honestly see it happening, when she wanted to start acting she swore to do no nude scenes... and then she ran out of money and stripped down for Serial Ape-ist for a pay-check... how long would she swear not to do porn before she gave in?

Wouldn't it be better to fuck a single man repeatedly than to end up getting fucked on camera by countless strangers?

"I... accept, Sir." she said after a moment. This was for the best, this would set her life on the right path... even if she had to do some wrong things to do it.

"Good girl, sit in my lap." he ordered, making her rise.

"Yes... Sir." she replied, mounting him as his erection brushed against her undercarriage, her panties and his silk bottoms the only things separating them. Feeling his hand grip her ass tightly, squeezing it before he spanked her hard enough to make her yelp, she crushed the glare she could feel growing before it could reach her eyes. She needed him...

"Kiss me, and make me believe it. You want to be an actress so act. You'll have some romance scenes after all." he said calmly.

"Yes sir..." she agreed, putting a sultry look on her face as she

leaned down and captured his lips, her breasts pressing against his bare chest as his hands groped her firm behind roughly. To her shame she felt her nipples start to harden against his chest as they traded saliva, he tasted like.. blueberries?

Closing her eyes, she tried to forget who she was throwing herself at, failing as his unique scent filled her nostrils, he always smelt terrific, maybe it was his body wash.

He was domineering in the kiss, his tongue effortlessly forcing hers to submit as he plundered her mouth, her lips felt bruised from his rough treatment already, as he thrust his shaft against her covered pussy a moan escaped her, muffled by his lips.

After a few minutes of this, he broke the kiss, smirking at her as she gasped for air slightly, trying to calm herself... Kuro was... a fantastic kisser. In another league compared to Leonard's clumsy and gentle kisses.

Pushing her off him, he skipped any-more foreplay as he calmly pulled her to his kitchen table, bending her over it roughly as her face was pushed against the glass, his hand holding her head down.

Hearing him drop his bottoms she braced herself, feeling him simply pull her thong aside and thrust forwards, his prodigious length entering her in a single move. Seeing the bulge was intimidating, feeling it beneath her was scary... but no amount of knowledge could have prepared her for the feeling of him piercing her inner channel. He was bigger than anything she had ever experienced before, the feeling of being split apart, making her mind go blank.

Not for pain, she was shamefully wet enough that even his size didn't hurt her as he started moving, but from unadulterated pleasure, the thick shaft hitting places previously untouched places she didn't even realise she had.

"Thank me." he ordered as he pounded her against the table, it making a loud bang with every thrust, her hands gripping it tightly as she tried to keep focused.

"Th-thank you for your kindness... Sir." she moaned out, barely holding on as wave after wave of pleasure ran through her body, bringing her to the edge of her orgasm.

"Good girl... I'll have you trained in no time at all." he laughed as he sped up, his hands digging into her hips as he railed her. In record time she felt her climax overwhelm her, an embarrassingly loud moan leaving her throat and filling the room as her pussy clenched down on him.

- Leonard -

"...He does know we live right below him... right?" he muttered to himself as he heard a moan come in through the roof, a constant banging filling the room. "Ugh... can't even confront him over it, he always talks circles around me.

Kuro was a good friend, but he had his... flaws. But then, all his friends did. Grabbing his pillow, he pulled it over his head and closed his eyes.

He almost envied Kuro, but he'd prefer a single girlfriend than Kuro's endless one night stands.

- Penny -

Feeling herself cum, again she let her moan out, clutching the bedsheets tight enough to tear them, her pussy sore and abused from his constant pounding, he'd been fucking her for... hours, on every surface in his apartment and yet he hadn't cum once.

Until now... feeling him finally let go her eyes widened at the sensation of his cum flooding her unprotected womb, burst after burst filling her up as she came again, before collapsing into a boneless slump. Leonard could go for about five minutes...

As he pulled out of her, she heard a satisfying plop, a groan of pleasure leaving him as he finally stopped.

"Good girl... clean me up." he ordered as he laid down, gesturing at his still hard shaft, coated in their mixed juices. Pulling herself up, she took the meaty pole into her mouth, licking and sucking the thick rod as it stood proud.

"Tomorrow I'm getting you a new phone, from now on if I call you will answer. If I tell you to come to me, you will do so. I don't care what you are doing, if you aren't working, then you have no excuse. If I call you at 3am, you'll wake up and crawl over here. If I call you on date night with Leonard, you'll make up whatever excuse necessary and come to me. If you ignore or miss my calls, you won't like your punishment." he said coldly as he looked down at her, unable to respond with her lips locked around his shaft she simply nodded obediently, her mind to hazy from the pleasure to think about the long term right now. "Good, now mount me and start riding... that was round one, we have a long night ahead of us." he said with a smirk making her eyes widen in shock.

- Amy – Sometime later -

"Okay, this is pretty unexpected. What can I do for you, Amy?" Kuro asked after a moment, looking at her in confusion. It was to be expected, they had very little interaction despite their mutual friends.

"You fund the California Institute of Technology, correct?" she asks immediately making him pause.

"I do... which you already know since you work there." he replied slowly, giving her a confused look.

"I require more funding for my experiments." she continued bluntly, getting to the heart of the matter quickly.

"Then put in a request instead of showing up at my house." he muttered with an annoyed sigh.

"I did. It was denied. I am close to a breakthrough and require more funding to complete my research." Amy continued again, ignoring his annoyance.

"Again, I just give the money to Caltech, I don't handle individual funding." he replied with a frown.

"But you could sponsor my research. Penny suggested I come here and make a deal." she replied immediately, making him pause.

"Oh, did she now? Well.. that changes things, doesn't it? Did she tell you anything else?" he asked calmly as she shook her head.

"No, she told me that you could help me if I did things for you. She said nothing else." she answered calmly.

"Well... why don't you come inside so we can discuss what you can do for me." he said calmly, moving aside and letting her enter his apartment, the door closing behind her.

Authors Note: So, I've decided to start this as a way of including characters that won't be in the main story. These are easy to write since I can do them on my phone without any of the extra files I need to write the main chapters so I can write them on the move and when I don't have time to work on the main stories (a couple of hours before work isn't really time to get into a proper chapter). And honestly? Sometimes I just don't have the right mood/mindset/motivation to write a proper plot chapter with lots to think about and consider.

There's no real schedule for these, they won't affect the regular schedule, and I'll write them when I feel like it/get an idea for one. I want to do Amy and Bernadette as their own chapter as well. Not sure when though.

Someone asked if I had a pat reon, so I made one, check it out, or don't. I won't be posting anything on there that I don't post here
