For Les (closed) dated Nov 8

"Okay." The moment that Les opens the door to his apartment, Raleigh's giving him a box full of food. There's vegetables and uncooked chicken and bags of rice and flour and butter and eggs; there's all sorts of food, but she shifts the bag on her shoulder as she gives him a pointed look.

"I meant it when I said today was for me," she said with a smile, moving up the stairs to his kitchen - she's slower than he is, she's always slower than he is - but she brought him a bunch of food, so she supposes she's allowed to be just as slow as she likes.

"And I hope you haven't eaten a lot. Have you?" She realises then- "How're you?" She should have asked that first, but she's a little bit a Woman On A Mission.

Les knew she said today was for her, but she's here all bright and early and perky. He is still in sweatpants and t-shirt and his hair looks like he just scrambled out of bed to answer her knocking on his door. Literally, he just got out of bed. It's the weekend. He is allowed to sleep. But he's awake now watching with interest as she enters his loft with what appears to be a bag of groceries.

"I mean I could eat breakfast," he tells her, shifting over to the counter where she puts down her bag. He takes a peek inside and sees lots of things. "Besides that I'm always hungry."
