Colin Has An Early Meeting

Colin was awoken by the sound of his phone going off. Without opening his eyes he reached over to the side of the bed where he normally kept it and found nothing. Groaning, he parted his eyelids a fraction and looked around. This wasn’t his bedroom. He was still in Evelina’s.

And she was there as well. Evelina was as naked, curled up on her side and snoring gently. He bent over and kissed her cheek, and she made a small cute noise in response.

“Evelina…” Colin whispered, brushing her hair, “Time to get up.”

“Mmmm…noooo.” She mumbled, her eyelids shifting. She reached up and pulled him down, wrapping her legs around his waist and pushing her head into the crook of his neck, “Now you will have to stay in bed with me forever.”

“I need to get up. I have a meeting with a client.” Colin slowly extracted himself from the confines of his girlfriend’s arms and slid to the edge of the bed, sitting with legs off the side as he rubbed his eyes.

Evelina had sat up, her eyes half closed and her dark hair a mess.

“Who are you going to see?”

“Some flower shop. They have asked us for a pretty simple website but want to talk about it in person.” Colin shrugged as he put on his clothes from yesterday. They were a little crumpled but were clean, “What about you?”

“I have my first official day with Master Dufort. I’ll head over to his place after you have left.”

“Alright. Well congratulations for last night.” Colin said leaning in to steal one last kiss before he stepped out of Evelina’s room.

“Let me know when you are free this evening. I’m sure I’ll have lots to talk about!” Evelina yelled as Colin went down the stairs and out of the apartment.

Grabbing his car, Colin made his way into the city centre. The restaurant where he was to meet the client was on the top floor of a major shopping centre. It was a fairly popular eatery that had won an award many years earlier.

Waiting outside the restaurant was Rita Morgan. She was the relationship manager at Colin’s place of work. She was a short woman, thin and pale, with natural red hair that reached almost her waist. She kept it tied back when at work, letting flow over her shoulders when outside of the office hours. A pair of large round spectacles sat on her face, giving her an almost owl-like look.

“You're late.” Rita stated, giving her best attempt to look cross and intimidating.

“Sorry, Rita. Had a long night.” Colin said, wincing at Rita’s hard stare.

“You look like you didn’t go home last night. Did you?”

“No I did not.”

“Come on. The client is waiting here already.” Rita said and walked into the restaurant. Colin could not help but have a look at her bottom. Despite her short stature she had a rather appealing behind.

Before he had met Evelina he had something of a crush on Rita. Even now he sometimes daydreamed about manhandling the petite redhead. picking her up, stripping her naked and bouncing her on his cock.

Colin shook his head to get rid of the image and joined Rita as they met the client. The client was a tall elegant looking woman with curly blond hair. The dress she wore seemed to fit perfectly to her frame and seemed to stop quite high on her thigh without exposing anything.

“Miss Rainford-Fitzroy?” Rita asked, walking up to the woman and looking particularly diminutive before the woman.

“Please, call me Gail.” She said, shaking hands with Rita, “I hope you don’t mind that I ordered food and drinks for everyone.”

“Oh no. That’s quite alright.” Rita gestured towards Colin, “This is Colin Brannagh. He will be the lead developer on the project.”

“Lovely.” Gail said, reaching out to shake Colin’s hand.

Gail held Colin’s hand and began to speak to Rita. Colin could not make out what the women were saying to each other. The sounds around Colin became distant and muffled like he was hearing it all underwater. Gail was still shaking his hand but he reached up with his other to touch his head, trying to get his hearing back.

“Colin?” Rita’s voice pierced through the wall of white sound and almost at the same time, a high pitched sound swept through the restaurant.

Drink glasses shattered all throughout the restaurant not all at once but in a wave that swept across the room, starting from the table closest to Gail, Rita and Colin. The sound of breaking glass was quickly followed by screams of shock and in some cases pain as slivers of glass cut into flesh. Others guests of the restaurant dove under the table thinking to find safety beneath.

Colin, in a state of shock, reached up and touched his cheek. His fingers came away from blood on them and he swooned slightly, nearly falling over. The whole restaurant was a mess. Tables and chairs had been upended as people attempted to scramble away. Some people were lying on the ground, bleeding from glass wounds and in a range of levels of consciousness.

“Colin!” Rita yelled, reaching out to support him. Her clothes were drenched in wine but she looked largely unharmed.

“W-what just happened?”
