Chapter 31 · Spider

I and Zoe had been sitting at one of the wooden tables waiting and watching the odd staff member walk past or wipe the already spotless table down. A few people that weren't wearing the same uniform as the staff walking in and while some went down one of the corridors at the end of the resection a few sat down at table seeming to wait until a staff member approach them.

I try to not look at the people coming in making sure to avoid eye contact. I slowly shuffled my chair so as to have Zoe's body blocking me from view more. I'm still not happy being in a place so filled with busy people, I felt like a trapped bug. I could almost hear the odd sharp whisper which I was sure was were not my imagination.

Finally, I hear the clicking of footsteps head towards our table and I was not the only one. Zoe tucked her phone away and stood up half yawning into one hand and nodded her head at the footsteps.

"That's us, we best get moving," Zoe half-whispered to me as she started to turn to walk to the clicking.

I quickly stood up and shuffled behind Zoe while trying to see who it was we were meant to be meeting. I look around and for a second fault, my eyes were playing tricks on me. Looking down the hall we were in I could see the shape of to fighter walking toward us at a slow pace. One stood a skinny human guy with longish black hair and eyes a sky blue looking down at a clipboard in hand while quickly talking to the lady next to him. He wore a simple white shirt with black formal trouser and seemed to be about 20 or so.

However, the lady he spoke to was a different story. Her face had dyed pink hair that fell to her chest while having simple brown eyes. Her face looks young like that of a person in their teen's with smooth soft looking checks. She also wore a white shirt but had a frill running down it however it was tight against her... large and oversized midsection. That is the similarities to human stopped, well I guess her chest size was a bit inhuman as well as I try to stop my brain from comparing my own flattish chest.

Standing on eight black spider legs and her chest meeting to the backend of a giant spider body she must have stood almost double my height. Her black abdomen was as long as a small car. Simple brown clothing covered her spider end most of her back apart from a small pink mark that stood on the top of her back.

I tried to stop but Zoe kept walking on like this was a normal everyday thing and I couldn't find the will power to leave her side. traitorous legs. Soon we stood face to face.

"So sorry Zoe it's been a nightmare I would have come sooner but it's like everything falling apart. No, no I must stop complaining. How are things with... " the giant spider lady started seeming to drop on her belly to react the same hight as Zoe, then her eyes s fell on me "oh who's this cutie, you didn't say you were dating."

"Woo, woo we're not dating," Zoe stammered quickly shaking her head which made me feel a bit... cold. Dam brain, first my legs now you, traitor all of you.

"So you're single. Nice to meet you I'm Scarlett. You want to grab a drink sometime," she asked turning to me and smiling.

I stood there staring at her. I couldn't help it my brain had just melted. I couldn't help but look at her and question if she was sincere.

She looked down at me in confusion then in... delightfulness.

"I'm sorry," she started, at which I breathed a sigh of relief which I quickly regretted, "you must want to check my features."

She quickly leaned towards me placing her oversized chest in front of me " you can feel then if you like," she said still smiling.

"Scarlett do that in your time and not to a guest!" Came to the voice of a heavy English male voice as the man next to Scarlett suddenly spoke up his face now red with a mix of anger and embarrassment " take Zoe to the meeting now and we will talk about this later."

"Ok, see you later cutie," Scarlett replied with only a slight bit of regret in her voice before she started to walk away with Zoe jogging to keep up.

"I am so sorry about that miss Jade was it?" He asks what I gave a small nod to "she's just come back from her nest and it's in her culter to... well it no excuses please take this,"

He reaches into one of his pockets and brought out a small silver card.
