The Awakening

Initialisation complete

Adam awoke with a jolt. He gasped, thrashing around until he gathered his bearings. He found himself on a bed, the sheets were awash with sweat and the duvet on the floor. He was confused for a few moments before the events of the previous day came back to him full ****.

“Oh god!” Adam moaned, placing his head in his hand. He had drank so much after he had arrived at the hotel, more then he had ever done so before. “Wait…”

Adam blinked, pulling his head away and glancing around the room. There was no hangover, no tiredness either. But he had drunk a lot, and had heavier drinks then he would normally. He took a deep breath, gathering his bearings before he moved to his feet.

Adam wore his clothes from yesterday, jeans and white t-shirt combo. He needed to leave, before he was kicked out by security, he had only purchased the room for the night.

Adam needed to get back home and sort things out. He glanced at his phone and found numerous missed calls from a number of people. He frowned, he didn’t want to speak to anyone at the moment.

Adam sighed and headed to the shower, a half hour later he was out. He didn’t know why he was feeling so good, perhaps the **** and sleep had blunted the worst parts of his feelings. In fact, the grief he was feeling from yesterday felt reduced.

User platform performing at near peak efficiency.

Adam walked out of the hotel room with a spring in his step. He was thankfully able to think past his grief and the fact that his fiance cheated on him. In fact, it left him with some relief. Perhaps it was because he had spent the previous night crying and wallowing in pity.

“I need to get home,” Adam whispered. He needed to sort his life out. He exited the lift to the reception hall and headed out when his stomach rumbled.

Food first, Adam thought. He walked into the canteen, passed an older couple looking at the menu board. His gaze slid over the woman, someone in her late thirties or early forties. Raven black hair flowed down her back, she wore a light blue summer dress hid a curvy figure.

She is frustrated, by the ring on her finger I think her husband pissed her off. Adam thought.

The women’s eyes were narrowed at the man beside her. One hand at her hip was clenched into a fist, while the other hand clutched her handbag.

Adam wondered if they were arguing over breakfast, Rachel and him had joked with each other about their different tastes. Crap, he needed to get her off his mind. He walked past the couple, giving one more appraising look at her backside before he turned his attention to the canteen. He wouldn’t mind feeling her arse, or squeezing her cheeks.

Adam piled food onto his plate, a full English breakfast with a cup of coffee. He was about to leave and find a seat when a woman stepped up beside him and started to line her own plate with food. Adam was struck speechless for a moment, her slender body and curves drew his attention immediately. She wore dark grey jeans, with a brown top and jumper. Her auburn hair fell over her face and shoulders.

The women appeared to be in a rush, as she piled on food to her plate.

For some reason Adam felt like he had a chance in picking her up. Adam’s eyes widened as she looked up at him, their eyes connecting with each other. His cock hardened in his pants, straining the material. He was caught red handed ogling her, he would have never done something like this before today. Adam felt blood rush up to his cheek, he was about to say sorry and look away when she surprised him. She blushed, a small smile forming on her lips before she looked away.

Adam sighed in relief, she didn’t seem to mind. He blinked, as he had the urge to talk to her.

“Are you staying here as well, or just a passerby enjoying the free food?” Adam said.

“Wha….oh...no I’m staying here.” the woman said, pulling a lock of hair behind her ears. Her cheeks turned scarlet as she gazed at him, her eyes roving his form. “I am an actress at Queens theatre, and am doing a gig nearby.”

“Oh...wow. Never met anyone famous before.” Adam said, a smile forming on his face. “So, you’re a celebrity. Nice to meet you, I’m Adam.”

He offered his free hand to the woman, a moment later realising all the food she had on her plate would make it awkward for her to shake his hand.

“Ashley, Ashley Drayton. A pleasure to meet you, “ Ashley scrambled to settle the plate on one hand and with the other she shook his hand. Ashley licked her lips as she gazed up at him, her pupils dilated. “I’m not that famous, just a more local actress.”

Platform is primed and ready, and will be malleable to suggestions.

“Still more famous then me, I am only a college tutor.” Adam said, blinking in surprise. A jolt of electricity travelled up from his hand along his arm and settled on his shoulder. It seemed Ashley felt the same thing as she gasped quietly.

“You shouldn’t be so hard on yourself. You could easily be a model or actor.” Ashley said, pulling away and offering a small smile.

“Now you’re just pulling my leg,” Adam said. He smiled and then glanced at the room, noting the empty tables. “Do you want to eat breakfast with me? I could use the company.”

Adam didn’t know why he felt so confident talking to Ashley. Especially after last night. He had never been confident talking to pretty women, he had Rachel. He used to joke with his friends that Rachel was HD TV and every other woman was black and white in clarity, because in his mind all that mattered was Rachel. He hadn’t cared about any other woman, no matter how sexy they were.

Adam knew he wanted to take his mind off Rachel, and Ashley seemed like great company.

“Sure, lead the way.” Ashley smiled, grabbing a cereal bar from the table.

Good, far away from unwanted ears. I might have a chance with her. Adam thought, eyes widening at the thought. He didn’t know why he had thought that, but it seemed like the most natural thing in the world.

Adam smiled and then led Ashley toward an empty section at the back of the canteen. He didn’t know why he didn’t choose one of the empty seats close by, but something told him this would be the best decision.

“So, why are you in the hotel?” Adam asked, as they both sat down. His gaze travelled to her breasts quickly as she made herself comfortable on the seat, they jiggled noticeably.

“The production company I am contracted to hosted a small event, we recently finished a season of shows and had a party in one of the function rooms.” Ashley said, digging into her food. “And yourself?”

“Eh...personal things, stuff happened and I wound up here.” Adam glanced around, he didn’t really want to bring up his fiance cheating on him. He looked back at Ashley and took in her beauty. Rosy cheeks and sensual lips, her auburn locks fell down her shoulders and the curve of her breast drew his attention. He would never have been this confident before, but something seemed to push him. “You’re really beautiful, the top really suits you.”

“Ah...err..thank you.” Ashley said, glancing down at her food. She gazes back up a moment later, batting her eyelashes at him. “Your t-shirt is nice, really shows off your muscles.”

“I can barely decide what outfit to wear, always double guessing.” Adam said, he basked at her words. It felt right, as if everyone should be praising him, especially women. He had been through a lot in the past twenty four hours and he needed to let off some steam.

“Really, you dressed well. If you had a jean jacket then that would complete your look.” Ashley replied.

“I guess you have to be stylish to be an actress,” Adam said. He continued to eat his food, trying to sneak more looks at her breasts whenever she wasn’t looking at him.

Target primed and ready.

“You don’t have to be. You could be an actor if you wanted to, you definitely have the capability.” Ashley said, reaching forward and grabbing his hand. Her cheeks were red as she gave him a smouldering look, and her tongue shot out of her mouth and licked her lips.

God, she is so beautiful. Adam thought, examining her whole body. She had really nice lips, he wanted to see what they were like wrapped around his cock. He wanted her, more then anything in the world. And why shouldn’t he take what was rightfully his, she wanted him as well.

It was obvious.

Adam tightened his grip on her hands, enjoying the feeling of her smooth skin. He could take her, back to his hotel room and they could fuck. He could forget all about Rachel and let out his frustrations on Ashley. His cock was rock hard in his pants, he wanted to fuck her more then anything, to having her lips slobbering all over his cock.

Adam wanted to dominate her.

Platform’s resistance is lowered. More input from the user platform will lead to a desired outcome.

Adam’s fingers brushed against something hard. He looked down and found a ring on her finger. A wedding ring. It had beautifully encrusted diamonds and an elaborate design that circled the whole ring. It put his own ring to shame.

Adam’s mind froze, his thoughts clearing a little. What was he doing, trying to get someone to cheat on their husband. Sure, he no longer had a fiance and he would throw his ring away on the first opportunity. But that didn’t mean Ashley should do the same.

“We should stop,” Adam said. The words were extremely hard to say, he had to **** out each word. His mind and body was screaming at him to not, but it was the right thing to do.

User platforms emotional state compromised, reinitialising.

“Wha...what do you mean?” Ashley asked, blinking. Her eyes cleared, her pupils returning to their normal size. She still looked incredibly beautiful. Adam wanted to fuck her, but he couldn’t.

“You’re married and I...have a fiance, we shouldn’t be doing this.” Adam said, giving her hand one last squeeze before letting go.

“Oh! I’m….married.” Ashley said, pulling her hand away as if struck by lightning. “I’m sorry, I don’t why I was….sorry I didn’t mean to lead you on. Maybe I’m still tired from the party last night.”

“Same here, I just have a little hungover.” Adam felt completely fine, but Ashley didn’t need to know that. “Perhaps we can stay friends, let’s swap numbers.”

Platform is again susceptible to suggestion.

“Yes, I would like that.” Ashley said, grinning brightly at him. She brought her phone out from her pocket, they exchanged numbers a moment later.

“Let’s stay in touch. I want to tell everyone that I now have a famous friend.” Adam grinned, causing Ashley to blush harder.

“And….I wouldn’t mind getting to know you more.” Ashley said, licking her lips again.

She still wants me, and I want her. Adam thought, taking a deep breath. It was the hardest thing in the world, but he stood up.

“I need to go, I have a few things to do but we chat later.” Adam said, gazing down at her. He could see the curve of her breasts under her clothes from his current anger. His cock pulsed in his pants.

“Sure,” Ashley said.
