Lorraine cannot bring herself to celebrate a death.

 

 

 

 

“He’s gone, Lorraine.” Sir James Lester’s voice is unaccustomedly nice as he speaks to the woman sitting at her desk, staring at Oliver Leek’s last memo.

 

            “Yes. I know.”

 

            “I would have thought that you would be glad. I know he made life difficult for you.” So he did know about the extra workload, the snide comments.

 

            “Glad? He was torn to pieces an-“

 

            Lester sighs. “Lorraine. Go home; get a decent night’s sleep. Or join Jenny, if you like. But don’t stay here, and don’t even think about clearing out Leek’s desk. I’ll get someone else to do it.”

He's misunderstood. *nods* And Karl Theobald looks good with stubble, which might have something to do with it from my POV.

And there's Lester always doing his best to hide his softer side *g*. Good drabble.

lovely little moment. It must have been strange and confusing for those at the ARC who didn't know the full extent of what Leek had done, but saw his death like that.

Nice fic - I like how you still made Lorraine feel sorry for Leek even though he made her life difficult.
