Today had been Katy's last day. She was leaving the company after 12 years to take up her dream job in Manchester. Katy was a very attractive and funny girl, and had always been a very popular figure in the office. She had arranged a leaving meal for what seemed like half the company at a local restaurant/nightclub. We all arrived and gathered in the lobby area for 8pm and were eventually shown through to our table. We had almost taken over the entire restaurant with two long tables running parallel to each other along the length of the room. I was one of the last people to take my seat as I was finishing my conversation with one of the guys from work, by which time there were only 2 seats left. One was next to Trevor, a notoriously dull manager from the finance team who could sap the will to live from anyone he spoke to within a matter of minutes. The other was at the end of the row, next to a lady who I'd seen around the office for the last month or so but had never been introduced to. Given the choices before me I quickly pulled out the chair next to the newcomer and sat down.
We smiled, exchanged pleasantries and introduced ourselves. She was called Sophie and had joined the company 5 weeks ago. I thought that she was probably in her late twenties, had long black hair with the most stunning green eyes, and a very trim figure which was beautifully highlighted by the tight fitting red dress she was wearing.
The starters and mains were bought out and eaten over the course of the next 90 minutes. There was plenty of wine on the table and by the time we were ready for dessert the room was full of noise and laughter as the party was in full swing. Katy was, as usual, holding the attention of almost everyone in the room. At the other end of the table, Sophie and I enjoyed a really good chat and I quickly found that we shared a very similar sick sense of humour. We were quite tightly packed in and it couldn't be helped that occasionally our arms or legs would brush against each other. However following the last of those "accidental" touches, Sophie's leg remained pushed against mine. Our chairs had also moved a bit closer together so by now we were nicely snuggled in next to each other. Her voice started to stutter as we spoke, struggling to string a sentence together. As we talked she tried hard to avoid eye contact, choosing to look anywhere around the room rather than directly at me. She seemed to be caught between getting lost in the moment and a sense of embarrassment at finding herself in this situation as her emotions started to overwhelm her.
In a moment of pure instinct I slid my right hand down under the table cloth and placed it on top of Sophie's leg. She didn't react, other than it felt like she pushed her leg even more firmly against mine. I started rub my hand up and down her thigh from just above her knee all the way to the top and back again. She put her hand on top of mine. At first I thought that she was going to stop me and push my hand away but instead she locked her fingers in between mine and pulled my hand down to the inside of her thigh. I could feel Sophie's hand shaking on top of mine and she was clearly getting as turned on as I was. I could see her chest rising up and down as her breathing was getting heavier. Under the guidance of her hand, I continued to caress her inner thigh as she responded by parting her legs a little wider. She pulled my hand higher, making her dress bunch up on the way. Still under the cover of the tablecloth my fingers finally touched her panty covered pussy.
I could feel through the fabric of her knickers that she was very hot and very, very wet. Sophie guided my hand to discretely rub her pussy under the table as she slowly gyrated her hips against me. She had a glancing look around to confirm that no-one was looking, shuffling in her seat, she slid her panties down her thighs, over her knees until they fell around her ankles. I knocked my spoon on the floor to give me a reason to bend down and remove them over her shoes. As I sat upright and slipped her soaked underwear into my pocket, she took my hand again and returned it between her legs. When I felt how wet she was I slid my middle finger between her swollen lips and a little way into her. Her body visibly tensed up and she quietly gasped as she shifted in her seat at the feeling of my finger inside her. Her breathing was becoming more and more intense as she reached her other hand in to my lap and squeezed my cock which by now was almost bursting out of my trousers. Fingering and rubbing this hot girl's pussy whilst surrounded by our colleagues and friends in the middle of a crowded restaurant was insanely erotic. But this was about her and she wasn't allowed to touch my cock until I gave her permission. I grabbed her hand and removed it from my cock. She reluctantly got the message but seemed to enjoy the self control she was being forced to exercise.
