This chapter is sort of a filler. Sorry it's short.
Monday...
Frowning at the knock at the door Lucy sighed as she put her hairbrush down. Who was knocking at eight in the morning? Well, it could be Tim but he was away for a couple of weeks with Daisy on a holiday.
Opening the door Lucy frowned at the young girl in front of her with two coffee cups, "Miss Adams?" She asked as Lucy nodded her head in reply, "these are for you?"
"I didn't order anything," Lucy objected but had the coffee put into her hands anyway.
"I've just been told to deliver them," the youngster replied before scurrying off.
Frowning again Lucy shut the door after the girl and made her way into the kitchen. Placing the cups in the holders onto the counter she picked up the coffee cup and smiled as she read what was on it.
Hi Lucy.
Thank you for yesterday.
I hope I get to pay you back in some way and I think this is a start.
There's one cappuccino and a different drink if you fancy something different.

Taking a hold of the other cup she smelt it and placed it back down. It was some flavoured tea she wasn't fussed on. Taking a sip of her cappuccino she couldn't help smile at how sweet this gesture was.
Tuesday...
The knock that day came later on and a frown once again appeared on Lucy's face. Opening the door she was faced with the same young girl the day before with a cup of coffee and a cake.
"Someone likes you," she commented as Lucy simply smiled in return. Taking the tray off the young girl she thanked her before shutting the door. This was the second day in a row. He wasn't seriously going to keep this up? Was he?
Once again placing the cups onto the island she decided to go with the hot chocolate.
Wednesday...
The third delivery came with a doughnut. Smiling once again at the same young girl, Lucy tipped her before once again shutting her door. Settling onto the sofa Lucy chuckled as she read the caption on the paper cup with her cappuccino in.
"What would life be without a doughnut or two? Enjoy.x"
Picking up her phone maybe it was time to text him. Lucy was nervous though. What if it was too soon? What if he was busy? What if he didn't want to talk at all? Banishing the thoughts from her head Lucy unlocked her phone before bringing up his number. Sighing she began to text.
Life would be very dull without doughnuts.
It's very sweet of you.
Thank you.
Lucy.x
Locking her phone and putting it in her pocket she was unaware that Lee had jumped for joy when he received her text. Sinking back into his chair he replied immediately.
Thursday...
By now Lucy was used to having her coffee delivered to her every morning and for some sort of message to appear on the coffee cup. Sometimes it was a quote, sometimes something cheesy and other times something completely random. Today was one of those days.
One by one the penguins steal my sanity...
I saw it on a coffee mug when we were out. It stuck and it was random.
Enjoy your coffee.x
P.S. Sorry there's no doughnuts today.
Shaking her head Lucy sipped her drink. Afterwards she placed it with the other coffee mugs she had received.
Friday...
She knew this was going to be the last day she received coffee. Lucy had that feeling. She didn't mind, it was a sweet gesture. No one had done anything like that for her before and it made her stomach do little somersaults.
Saying goodbye to the delivery girl for the final time Lucy made her way into the kitchen. This had become a ritual before she went to work, one she enjoyed. Picking up her coffee cup she read what had been written.
Hi Lucy,
By now you've probably guessed that this is the last delivery.
So, I decided to order you two cappuccinos and cake.
I was going to get you another doughnut but you've got to have variety in life.
Speak soon.
Lee.x
Speak soon? What on earth did he mean by speak soon? That's when her phone rang.
