Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Resident Evil, Although I Seriously Wish They Make A Movie Of Claire And Leon Getting Together
A tired, beaten by paper work, in desperate need of a hot bath, Redfield, trudged to her apartment door groaning as one of the many infected she had 'slayed'.
Claire dropped her work bag and only gripped it by the strap a she banged her head on the door to rest "Damn terrasave,...making me work late" She mumbled to herself as she lazily reached in her back pocket to get her keys, she sighed as she touched the cold metal, and ripped them out her pocket and inserted them in the door, she straightened up as she turned the knob in went in closing it with the back of her foot, she dropped the keys on a table stand next to her coat racked and yelled out to the house " I'm Home!." There was silence, She sighed again her tense shoulders dropping as she did and shook her head "Right, Chris moved out six months ago..guess i gotta get used to that..." she turned a lamp on and walked to the kitchen leaving her jacket on the back of the living room coach as she did, when she got to the kitchen she turned on the light and opened her fridge and she grabbed a can of beer.
"Guess its you and me." she said as she looked at the Jack Daniels and snapped open the beer top and took a sip a she walked back to her living room. Claire stopped in the hallway, finally realizing how empty the apartment was now that Chris was gone.
There was no more huge speakers hocked up to her small sized radio, no game controller's and games scattered on the floor, along with chris`s dirty clothes, no more empty beer cans, cigarette trays, and guns laying about although she had a few tucked in her apartment, hey what shes been through, it was the only way to feel safe. Claire almost cried, even though Chris was loud and rowdy, she wasn't alone when she was with him, but she was happy after all he now lived with her good sister-in-law Jill valentine, Claire chuckled " Sister-in-law,...makes me feel like I have a family again".
Claire let out anther sigh a she observed her apartment some more. From the front door she had a short hallway that lead to the spacious living room, with three beached inspired framed paintings hanging on the other side while a plant stood lonely against the table with an umbrella basket next to it she had a couch in the middle of the huge living room, red of course and a large glass coffee table, and a little behind that she had a nice flat-screen setting on a metal TV. stand.
To her right was where the kitchen opened up having an opening from the living room and a small opening leading to the hall to the two bedrooms and a big window space to over look the living room "Mmm...nosey much?" She giggled to herself, her counters were marble, floors as well her walls white and all appliances were stainless steel, right down to the very sharp knifes, another glass table for two sat in the middle of the kitchen, On the left of the living room was her closet, and her brand-new computer that thanks to Chris and the beer accident she was able to get, she thanked god she did most of her important work at work or on her ruby laptop in her room, so she didn`t lose anything, and in a corner sat her reading table with a small lamp and big swallow you up chair.
Claire eyes fell into sad slits, as a faint smile spread on her lips a she walked over to the table next to her big chair, on it also sat a very happy memory of a picture and she picked it up, it was when her,Chris,Jill,and Leon...had went camping for her 27th birthday...it was also the last time she saw that special agent that escaped raccoon city with her, she had heard of his mission in Spain and that was it, sure she shouldn't feel sad, they had always had on and off contact with each other, but that was just it, it was on and off that means at one point they talked or at least meet for an hour or had late Friday nights drinking. But now it had been two years, two years he dropped from out of her life and from off the planet, oh god how she missed him, she would take nine years of on and off , then two years of nothing any day, she refused whole heatedly that he died, one reason being he had brung back the presidents daughter, he had been on t.v , she had seen him, but hadn`t heard of him, by now Claire was silently crying as she looked at the picture in her hands " Leon...Where are you?...Are you safe?...Your not dead right?...you didn`t leave me right?...not without saying goodbye." Claire grimaced at her on thoughts and roughly wiped her tears away, she put her picture down and turned her favorite feature of the house, the big balcony window, Claire walked to it and looked out, the moon was beautiful big, round, and white.
Claire unlocked the balcony door and stepped out, not caring if it was late October and cold as winter, she smiled some, the only good thing about terrasave, it payed pretty well, she had an apartment on the top floor and it was almost above most buildings giving her clear view of the sky, she looked down her eyes lighting up with all the lights from lamp posts, cars and any attractions going on below her, she had to admit, Washington was beautiful, and had a lot of people.
Finally the cold got to her as she spent a good five minutes standing there, she rubbed her arms, and looked at the moon one more time, as a cold when swept through her usual high pony tail, she smiled at it " We`ll see each other again,..right Leon?",she said aloud and she turned and walked back inside and locked the door behind her she walked to the front door to make sure it was locked, then turned out the lamp, as she walked back to the hallway leading to the bed rooms she cut off the kitchen light as well, she closed the now guest bedroom door as she walked to her room, feet dragging on the black carpet, she pushed open the door with one finger and dropped on the bed and let out a deep sigh, she then scooted up some and turned on her bed side table lamp dimly lighting the room, she glance at her alarm clock and its red numbers read that it was one-forty-seven, she groaned " Great and i have to be at work again at seven!." she pushed herself up with a huff and began discarding her clothes not caring were they went, and she entered her bathroom, cutting on the lights she looked at herself in the mirror, she looked tired, eyes red, dark circles,and some loose strands of hair were coming out of her used to be tight pony tail, she walked over to her deep foot tub and stopped the drain as she turned on the Faust for the hot water to pour out.
She felt the water rush out on her hand, as she made sure it was nice and hot " I`ve been waiting for this.." she shook out her auburn haired pony tail and undressed from her under garments and climbed in, almost immediately her muscles untightend.
Leon rubbed his temple as he sat in the back of black sedan he was being escorted in,he sighed and looked out the window as Washington whipped past him in blurs how fast was this car going? he shook his head lightly as he turned and looked into the rear view mirror in front of him where two agents that looked like they were from men in black sat in silence, in slight frustration he straitened himself in his seat so that he wasn`t slouching, although he wanted to be relaxed it was hard in this kind of atmosphere, he turned his head back out the window "What do they want with me now?..." Leon thought, he had been on-calls by the government nonstop and in between that he was babysitting Ashley everywhere she wished to go,and was also checking anything related to bio-terrorism, after all he had promised himself, he had promised himself and Claire to wipe this virus off the face of the earth, Leon's shoulders relaxed, ...Claire.. how long had it been since heard that angelic voice of hers, or seen that smile that melted away his worries, god she had a way of doing that to him.
He leaned his head back and closed his eyes as his head rested on the back of the seat, he missed her, like no one else could miss a person, he missed talking with her, he missed playing jokes, and drinking, and just being in her presences. But he had a reason for cutting off contact with her, truthfully it was because he had felt guilty, he`d seen the way her eyes looked hurt when she saw him and Angela together, and he knew she`d be hurt if she knew his feelings for Ada had sprung up if only for a very short time, she had told him one day while they were drinking, that it was bad enough the government took him away from her but not a woman too, he smiled a bit if she`d only known how selfish she sounded she would swear that it was the bear talking and to say to never bring it up again, but Leon understood, he knew she didn`t have many friends, Chris, Jill , And himself are the only people she has for not feeling lonely, Even he had nightmares at times, wishing someone to be there and he would call , even though she`d curse him out complaining about work it would turn into sweet conversation , with both falling asleep on the other end, even though he would never think that the independent,strong,amazingly smart, 'zombie slaying', pretty, younger Redfield could have such weak feelings, but she was human, When the first opportunity came up he`d be sure to rush to her place with a case of beer, he smirked to himself.
The car came to a stop and lean lifted his head seeing his 'acquaintances' get out the car and into the parking lot of a building they were currently in, Leon followed suit and the men in black started to walk towards an elevator, they pressed a button for it to come down and waited with their hands behind their backs, Leon raised a brow " Are they serious?..", Leon inwardly shook his head, and the elevator doors opened he stepped in first and the men followed, pressing the button for the elevator doors to close and then a button for the 15th floor. Leon shifted one leg to another as he waited.
Claire opened the bathroom door and smoke of heat trailed after her , Claire feeling lazy picked up another towel and simply wrapped it around her head as she climbed into her bed, she glanced at her clock again and it was now two o`clock on the dot, she took longer then expected She sighed and set it as she pulled the covers over her and turned out her lamp, going to sleep instantly.
Finally the doors opened to Leon's and the men in blacks destination, to Leon's surprise it opened up to a single office that had only one door to the left and a big oak desk at the back and two couches in the middle of the room facing each other, with royal blue carpet and single ferns in each corner, a man turned in his chair from behind the desk to reveal himself as Leon's, HQ captain, when Leon recognised him he straightened up even more and poked out his chest, the older man had a broad chest that his tight uniform showed off, he spoke in a husky booming voice " Kennedy!, glad you could make it it!, Have a seat boy!" Leon noted the chair sitting in front of the desk and walked over to it sitting his rear end down without much noise, his captain smirked and chuckled " Why so uptight? loose`n up!" He leaned over and patted Leon on the back.
Leon made a low 'Oof!' sound, the man was heavy-handed or he did it on purpose, the captain sat pack and opened his draw and pulled out a manilla envelope, and swatted it down in front of Leon, Leon looked at it suspiciously, why would HQ, Personally have the captain give this to him?,was something wrong with hunnigin?, right now he preferred her, he looked at the captain with a blank military look. the captain smirked again, " I'll get straight to the point, in there, are five people we want you to team up with for your next mission, you have a month and two weeks to get these five people to agree to come along or we`ll force you to go with people, that are inexperienced for this that could very well cost your job" Leon eyes narrowed some " What do you mean?." He`s captain huffed " I mean agent Kennedy, umbrella...is moving again" Leon's body tensed as his eye widened some in horror and his mouth parted some " What?.." he breathed, the captain turned some in his chair "Two months ago, a team of agents like yourself, went to an island in the Caribbean, and encountered something.." " Encountered?" The captain nodded "They radioed in a panic mostly static was heard, put where were able to make out two words.." Leon began to feel nervous, something wasn`t right "Which?..." the captain turned to face him with a face more serious than before " Umbrella...and infected.."Leon gulped, and closed his eyes, rage began top boil, and so did sadness, he opened his eyes again and opened the Manila folder and dumped it on the desk, it was then he`s heart stopped and the world slowed, one the desk, three pictures stood out like sore thumbs.
Jill,...Chris,...and Claire laid in front of his eyes.
