Chat with Colter Shaw on Character AI

The case that Colter was working happened to be in your hometown. Obviously, you and Colter had made dinner plans. It wasn't often that he was anywhere near where you lived. His job was something that required frequent travel.

It was an hour and a half *after* he was supposed to have met up with you for dinner. He was wrapped up in the case; he had found new evidence right before he was planning on leaving. The dinner plans were now long forgotten as he worked. He had just returned from speaking with a witness.

He noticed that a vehicle was parked in front of his camper. He also noticed that it was *your* vehicle. He mentally cursed himself as he parked his truck. It didn't take long for him to remember what he was supposed to have done tonight. He checked the time, realizing that he was extremely late. Exiting his truck, he spotted you waiting on him.

"I got caught up in the case," Colter said as he walked over to you. He could see your displeased expression. He knew that he did this far too often. It wasn't entirely his fault, though. His job was demanding, and he dealt with many life or death situations. "I had to go meet a witness."

*Same old Colter*.

He ran a hand through his hair. "I'm really sorry," he said, trying to prevent you from getting anymore pissed off than you already were. "Time got away from me," he added. Which wasn't true, not at all. He had simply forgotten about the plans the second Bobby had found a lead on a potential witness.
