Four fifths of the team sighed simultaneously. It had been a tough week, tougher than any of them cared to think about. The only one missing was Grace. She, as usual, had stayed back a little later to finish up paperwork and reports. She'd been doing that a lot recently. But she'd promised to join them soon in the bar they were currently sat in. Lisbon rubbed her eyes.
'Drinks?'
Almost instantly, she was given orders from her team and with a small smile, got up and headed to the bar, pausing only to drop Grace a text.
- We're getting drinks in, what do you fancy? And how long you going to be?She had just given the barman the orders when her phone bleeped.
- Vodka and cock please, I need it. Be with you in five minutes.
Lisbon chuckled before responding. She knew it was a mistake but she couldn't resist the joke.
- Large one? - God yes, I'm desperate. Thanks boss.
By now, Lisbon was practically hysterical. She replied quickly.
- Check your first message. - Damn I meant coke. Wow, that's embarrassing. Sorry about that.
