This takes place after Loss. I know this is a bit dark, but I hope not tastelessly so. I hope you like it . . .
Olivia stands on the rooftop of the precinct, teetering on the ledge between knowledge and fear. She thinks about how easy it would be to end it all and join Alex in a land of shadows and ghosts. She considers for a moment, this easy way out. But Olivia Benson has never been one to take the easy way out.
She thinks of the radiant smiles Alex used to bestow upon her, the bliss of their lips crashing together, the warmth of their fingertips intertwined. Someday, someday Alex will be back. Someday they will go to bed with their arms wrapped tightly around each other, holding each other close. Someday they will cuddle in front of the fireplace, buried beneath warm blankets and sipping hot chocolate. Someday they'll be together again.
She crosses her arms and makes a decision. She stares down at the flecks of people below and does not jump.
