Lucy stared hard at Hyde when he suddenly announced that he had ordered pizza. He smiled back at her, once again taking in the lovely big brown eyes that were staring at him. Getting food in was of course against policy, but she resented the fact that the owner of this jeweller's shop had a long list of do's and don'ts. Worse he eagerly enforced broken rules with fines. She hated him and knew that Hyde did too. It was late at night, so there was no danger of getting found out, as long as they removed any evidence. What's more, she was hungry, and she did love pizza. So, she limited herself to a protesting sigh and carried on polishing the diamond she was working on.
Technically she was in charge and loved enforcing that fact, but tonight she did not have the energy. What she did need to do though is to stop this food ordering lark. It was becoming a habit, but not now. She would save the pleasure of giving Hyde a hard time for his infractions another time. He was tall, dark, handsome and pretty athletic looking and she occasionally found herself daydreaming about him, but he was not right for her. Well, she constantly told herself that anyway. She had a man and he was more than enough for her. Sort of! So, she would settle for just giving Hyde a hard time when she could, to ease her frustration.
"It's not the usual guy," observed Lucy, as she pressed the button on the intercom. The ring on the bell had come only a few moments after she had resumed work. Hyde casually observed that he was probably on vacation. "I'll be there in a moment," said Lucy to the microphone. Urged by Hyde to "go get it," she glared at him, but still walked out of the workshop and headed for the back door. Who the hell was he? Ordering her around. She was in charge, something else she could give him a dressing down for later. Hyde for his part was smiling behind her back. Partly because he knew his "go get it" had annoyed her and partly because he was admiring her ass as she walked out of the room. Her tight jeans showed off her backside to great effect.
Hyde began to listen intently. After all the rules said the backdoor could only be opened in an emergency and the person not answering the door had to monitor the situation closely. Hyde told himself there was no greater emergency than his stomach needing food. At the door, Lucy was greeted by the woman she had seen on the monitor. The woman smiled sweetly and responded immediately to Lucy's query about the usual guy, saying he was on holiday.
"That was what my colleague said," Lucy replied. The woman passed the box over and it was at that moment that Lucy wondered when Hyde had actually ordered the pizza. He had not asked her what she wanted, and he had not left her sight. She was sure he had made no phone call. She would have noticed, that too was against the rules.
"Here is your pizza," said the woman and Lucy let out a little gasp as the woman pushed the box into her stomach hard enough to make her take two steps backwards. "With extra bullets as a topping," the woman added smiling. Lucy let out a second cry as a gun emerged from underneath the box. Now with the woman inside the room, Lucy watched in horror as the backdoor was shut and bolted. At that moment, obviously having heard the commotion Hyde appeared. The woman smiled, "well, well, what a cute little couple," she said laughing, "Hyde and Lucy." Another rule was that staff wore badges at all times. "Come on, you can show me the diamonds while we eat pizza." Following the wave of the gun, Lucy and Hyde trooped back into the workshop. "I'm Connie," by the way the woman said casually.
**************************************************************************
"Gee you not getting any Sugar?" Said Connie, meaning Hyde. "That sucks!" By now Lucy's frustration was almost as high as her terror at being held up. Connie and Hyde were sitting there, eating pizza, chatting as though they had just met in a bar. Hyde had just confessed that he did not have a girlfriend at the moment. As he spoke those words, he had looked at Lucy and despite the situation they were in, she could see lust in his eyes. He had asked her out a couple of times. So, Lucy knew he liked her as much as she liked him. The old justification that he was simply not her type had convinced her to turn him down, time after time. Anyway, she had a boyfriend she was in love with. She was hoping he might pop the question any day soon. Although she was not totally set on the idea of spending the rest of her life with him.
"How about you sweetheart?" Said Connie, and Lucy reluctantly told Connie about her partner. How could she not, when Hyde was talking so freely? Connie smiled, "surely you two have been tempted to have a little fuck. Locked away in here. Who would know?" She paused. "You two would make such a cute couple." She then teased them both about the opportunity they both had. Saying several times who would know. She then focussed on Lucy, "you must have been tempted working with this stud all the time."
Lucy was going to protest, despite the feeling that she has been understood only too well. However, suddenly Connie stood up, observed the pizza was finished and then added it was time to get to work. She told Lucy that she needed her help and tossing her a pair of handcuffs she told her to cuff Hyde to the pillar. It stood in the middle of the basement that served as their workshop. Lucy was told for her own good, she should co-operate by Connie. So, Lucy led Hyde to the pillar and apologized to him as she cuffed him to it, his hands behind his back. Curiously he said nothing and made no protest. He seemed almost pleased. Connie then told her to start gathering up the diamonds, and to Lucy's surprise Connie added that she knew the safe would open in thirty minutes. How did she know that wondered Lucy?
"Then we can get at the good stuff," Connie observed and then she suddenly added, "talking of good stuff!" She pulled over a chair and sat in front of Hyde. Lucy paused, confused by what was happening.
"Keep gathering up those diamonds," Connie said, waving the gun at Lucy and Lucy went immediately back to work. Connie's hand began to stroke the side of Hyde's leg and once again Lucy paused, her mouth slowly dropping open at what was happening. Connie demurely asked Hyde if what she was doing was okay. To Lucy's horror, he nodded.
Connie smiled and then very carefully lifted his tee shirt, so the top of his trousers was visible. She asked him again if he was okay. Again, he said it was. Both of her hands had been caressing the top of his legs but now they reached up and undid the top button of his trousers. Connie slid down onto the floor, so she was now kneeling at his feet.
