Since Teddy had to be at work earlier than usual today, their morning run was cut a bit short. He quickly ate some breakfast and changed, out the door with Lucy 10 minutes before he was due for work.

Work sped by and before Adri knew it, she was back at the gym and being let through by the receptionist to visit Teddy at his office.

Teddy was having a very bad day. A very bad day, indeed. There had been so many complaints that he'd lost count by lunch time. Several of the instructors had called in sick, AND about five treadmills had broken down.
He was sitting at his desk, holding his head in his hands. Lucy, meanwhile, was sleeping soundly in a doggie bed situated in the corner.

Peeking inside, Adri noticed a not-so-happy Teddy. Sighing, she gently opened the door, walking over to his desk until she stood beside him. Putting her arm around his shoulder, she smiled reassuringly. "Hi."

"Hey." He replied, sighing dejectedly. He sat up straighter and put an arm around her waist.
"How was your day?"

"Slow," she answered, shrugging. She gently rubbed his back so he could somewhat relax. "Tough day?"

"...You could say that." He gently pulled Adri onto his lap, more glad than ever to be around her.

"Aww, poor Teddy," she cooed, adjusting herself as she sat on his lap. "Anything I can do to make you feel better? Besides, you've only got a couple more hours to go!"

Teddy let out another huge sigh.
"'Fraid not, babe. With all the stuff that's gone wrong today, I'm gonna have to stay longer to fix it all." He already was tired, and just thinking of doing more work made him exhausted.
((My mom sits on a throne of lies!!! I'm gonna go take a shower in a couple minutes, and I BET you she'll call me then.))

Adri frowned, resting her head on his shoulder. "I'm sorry about today," she said sincerely. "How about you head over to my place right after you're done with work?"
((Haha! Brb too!!))

"Are you sure?" He asked as he combed his fingers through her hair. "It won't be too late?"

"Don't worry about it," she said reassuringly. "Just knock on my door whenever you're ready."

"Thanks." He replied, his eyes locked on hers.
He was about to tell her how much that meant to him when his stomach growled. A bashful expression came onto his face as his cheeks turned pink.
"Could you do me a huge favor?"

Adri laughed softly. "I think I can guess. Hungry?" she asked, poking his stomach. "What do you need me to get you?"

"There's a burger place right around the corner." He said, fishing money out of his pocket. "I'd like the number 3 with a coke, a single hamburger for Luce here, and then whatever you want."
