Gone
The office was empty except for one person. Munch sat at his desk. He wasn't ready to go home. Not when it would be empty, no more of her laughter or cheer. Just the sounds of the night echoing around his apartment. He opened the drawer next to his leg. Carefully he pulled out the picture on top. It was of him and Alex. They were on their first date. He had taken her to the fair. Tears started rolling down his face. She was gone.
Liv walked down the hall. Her face was still wet. She and Elliot had brought the news of Alex's "death" to everyone. She couldn't handle the fog that had filled the office and had gone to the bathroom. As she thought about it she felt more tears forming in the corners of her eyes. She walked past the office and noticed someone still sitting there, it was Munch. He looked up and their eyes met. His face was wet too. He desperately clung to the photo in his hands. A connection passed between them, she understood. Slowly she nodded and walked on.
Munch stood. He knew Liv wouldn't tell anyone what she saw. She had understood. He flipped the picture over and the read the words on back. "I love you too. – Alex" A tear left his cheek, landed on the photo, and smudged her name. She was gone.
