Snippet #2198228

Colin Davis
"Kia ora! Hello!", came the greeting, followed by a hard but friendly slap on the back.
Colin knew who the voice belonged to, but turned anyway to see his buddy Niko giving Enid what he thought was a flirtatious grin, but to Colin, who knew Niko very well, it just seemed goofy.
"Kind of weird to invite me on your date, Colin. You know I'm not into the whole group thing. I'm a bit insecure about my size", he finished before turning to order a drink.
Colin had to ignore the urge to rip off Niko's head with his bare hands and punt it across the bar, but still had to hide a grin at his unique friend's equally unique sense of humor.
Classy, Niko...just....classy, he thought to himself, giving Enid a sideways glimpse and hoping she wasn't offended, but deciding to send his own remark at his friend.
"Yeah, well...you have every right to be insecure, based on what your last girl told me", Colin muttered just loud enough for Niko to hear, then attempted to hide his devious smile behind his coffee mug.
