The Beginning of the End

Disclaimer: Don't own, but I want!

Story warning: this is not a happy Fic, there are no roses and butterflies and kitties here. This is Dark Fic territory. Angst wrapped up with a pretty black bow and kicked into Centerfield of Emo land. I'm going to drag these characters through the mud because when the mood strikes and I feel dark and broody that's what I get inspired to do! If you don't want some deep dark Olivia thoughts, turn back now, you've been warned. :]

Just felt I needed to dig deep and balance out all that fluffy smut I've been giving you!

Preface –

The Beginning of the End

Olivia pulled the clothes from the washer in wadded handfuls hurling them to the floor. Articles of clothing that had seemed so familiar, things that had once brought her comfort, now alien and out of place.

Her breath hitched in her throat and her heart stumbled when she found the shirt.

How many times had Olivia seen this shirt on him? Fantasized about wearing it, being able to wrap herself in its soft jersey folds as she went to bed and snuggled under the cover of night with the smell of Peter engulfing her senses even if she couldn't be in his arms.

And here it was in her washer, and it smelled like her.

Unable to let the shirt fall from her fingers Olivia sank down next to the dryer and let the tears come.
