AN: Just a silly little Lynley/Havers 100{ish} word drabble, set during 503 - Chinese Walls. I sort of had to write this when I heard her tea comment - because what's more English than tea? :P Enjoy. Ooo, also, this is my 60th fic! Proudness.

Tea

"I'd murder someone for a cup of tea." Havers muttered as she and her partner walked back into the NSY building. Her partner glanced at her with a wry smile.

Hours later Havers went to her desk and flopped into her chair, looking down the barrel of another bloody background check. There was little more she hated in the world than background checks. As her computer booted and she scanned her desk for a pen her eyes landed on something that made them glow with delight. A steaming cup of tea sat before her with a post-it note attached:

In the interests of keeping you out of jail.
