Letters between two lost people

Eighteen

Dear Lucy
Now we know who we both are I just wanted to write a last and final letter... you are amazing & you made it so easy for me to off load my thought and problems.. you made me laugh on so many levels. And even made to re-evaluate what I want to do with the gym.. you listened you understood.. and that was what I needed... today the sun is shining and it's been a brilliant day.. started off with breakfast with a friend and then I met up with an amazing lady which to my surprise was you... this letter board has been the best thing in my life.. I know it sounds corny but you have made such a difference to my life.. we sat there for 5 hours... 5 hours I can't believe it.. and yes okay the milk shake was Delicious!

Moving forward as technically we have had 2 dates (breakfast & lunch) I think we should go out on a proper date night? What do you think??

But on a serious note I want to ask you something... how about you be my assistant for getting funds sorted for the extension.. I haven't got a clue and then you don't have to clean stupid times.. you can come here from school then home at a decent time for your sister and dad.. actually I'm not arguing with you about it because your doing it (only if you want too.. I hope your laughing like I am)

Lucy your amazing & I am so pleased I met you. Thank you for everything

Always
Mr chuckles AKA Charlie

PS - keep free dates 3rd August to 24td August..

Knock knock
"Come in... Lucy" bolting up straight pulling my feet off my desk
"A letter?" She cheekily waves it in the air
"Well yeah.."
"Should I read it now?"
"No later"
"You said you would teach me boxing right?"
"Yeah of course I will "
"Come on then" Like a child I followed her down to the matts.. Grabbing the gloves o pushed them on her hands pulling the strap tightly
"So this date?" She said quietly for just my ears
"You read it?"
"Of course I did.. date?" I watched her take a deep breath in
"Tonight? Ill pick you up at 7pm?"
"Tonight it is.."
"Why do I need to keep those dates free?"
"Because I say so.." she makes me nervous
"Not a good enough answer"
"You'll find out soon enough... right let's start"

"Tony I want to see Charlie I need to discuss something with him"
"He's currently teaching at the moment. Can I take a message?"
"Teaching Charlie?"
"Yes.. can I help Mrs BLake?"
"Ms Blakes... no I want Charlie..... hmmm" she paused and watched Charlie and Lucy playful boxing each other
"Sorry Ms Blake is it about a penny? "
"Huh.. yes yes it is... Charlie?" She pointed
"What about him"
"They seem very flirty"
"Do they.. Ms Blake can I help?" Charlie and Lucy were walking towards us taking the gloves off, both smiling and red face.

"Charlie darling" Ms. Blake flirty placed her hands on his stomach, Charlie followed her hands and took a step back, Lucy's gaze was tight..

" go get your bags and we will get going" Charlie turned to Lucy then back to Ms Blake as he folded his arms

"Ms Blake how are you?"
"Charlie darling I'm well I'm well.. I wondered if we could go for a glass of wine? I wanted to discuss penny"
"Discuss penny? Best speak to Tony he's her PT."
"Yes but it's you I want to speak with"
"We'll see Sophie and she book an appointment for next week."
" dinner?"
"Pardon.. Sophie could you run up to my office and grab my bag?" Lucy appeared behind me, I could feel her warmth
"Dinner tonight."
"Sorry no can do.. Sophie will book you a meeting next week.. ready?" Asking Lucy And she just nodded
"Ton I'm off now for the weekend.. shout any probs?"
"Sweet boss" Tony stared at the screen
"Charlie?..." Ms Blake called
"Meeting next week.." winking at Lucy her arm rested next to mine.. the urge to take her hand and interlock into my was such a strong desire...
"She's the cleaner"
"Excuse me Ms Blake but that is out of order.. I sAid book a meeting next week okay..."
"I've offered myself to you"
"Ms Blake I'm not interested... your not my type"
"But the cleaner is"
"Carry on Ms Blake I will terminate yours and your daughters contract with the gym.. later ton... come on Lucy" Spoken through gritted teeth, heart pounding with anger.. Lucy's expression was upset and concerned.. linking my fingers with hers I placed both out bags on my shoulder and we left closing the door behind us..
