I love Wesker/OC pairings. I have read many and decided to finally do my own one. I also thought what if there was no such thing as Umbrella or anything associated with them. I don't own Resident Evil or any of it's characters and locations. Capcom owns Resident Evil. The only thing I own is my character Maria and the plot of this story. Enjoy the story.

Maria Ravenheart had been a member of the STARS Alpha team for about six months now and so far she was finding the job to be a wonderful experience. She got along well with everyone in the STARS even Alpha team Captain Albert Wesker. When she had her interview with Wesker six months ago, she couldn't help but feel intimidated by him. He stood at over six feet tall and had blonde hair which was gelled back to perfection. Maria couldn't tell what colour his eyes were due to the ever present sunglasses he wore. All through her interview she was extremely nervous and by the end of the interview she didn't think she got the job but was surprised a few days later with a phone call from Chief Brian Irons himself informing her that she got the job. So six months later here she is getting up out of bed to get ready for work. She got out of bed and approached the bathroom to take her usual morning shower. After that she got out, dried herself off and put on her underwear, uniform trousers and white vest top. She then sat down at her vanity table to make herself look a little presentable. She proceeded to first brush her long jet black hair to get rid of the tangles then dry and straighten it then put it up in a ponytail. Once that was done, she put on some make up. Black mascara, black eyeliner and some clear lip gloss. Obviously, she didn't overdo it because it was work and not a night out with the team. After all that was done, she put on her white STARS shirt and black tactical vest. She then went to the kitchen to fix herself some toast with butter and a cup of coffee. Once finished that she picked up her car keys, her apartment keys, her bag and her music cd and then left through the front door, locking it behind her. She got into her car, put her cd on and turned the keys in the ignition. She drove off to the station while listening to California Girls by Katy Perry and Snoop Dogg.

She arrived at the station earlier than usual. Once she arrived at the STARS office, the only people there were Barry, Enrico and Wesker, who had just went back into his office. She said a quick good morning to both Barry and Enrico and sat down at her desk when she heard Wesker's voice calling her from his office.

"Ravenheart, can I see you in my office for a moment please."

"Of course Captain Wesker sir," she shouted back. She got up from her seat and quickly asked Barry if he knew what it was about. He didn't and she would have asked Enrico but he had already went back into his office. So she approached Captain Wesker's office and knocked on the door. She heard Wesker's voice telling her to come in, so she entered Wesker's office to find him sitting at his desk with his ever present sunglasses on his face. I bet he wears those damn sunglasses in the shower she thought to herself causing her to giggle to herself mentally. She was trying to calm herself because she couldn't think what she had done wrong. Even though she and Wesker were good friends, she couldn't help but still feel a little intimidated by him. Wesker looked up to face her and couldn't help but notice how nervous she looked. He gave her one of his rare smiles, which she returned and motions for her to take a seat. She does as she is told and sits down.

"It's ok Maria. Don't worry you're not in any trouble whatsoever." He said just to reassure her.

Maria breathed out a sigh of relief. "Thank you Captain. That's a relief to know."

"Maria please feel free to call me Albert." He had been trying to convince her to call him by his first name at work since she joined. The others all called him by his first name but she wouldn't.

"Ok then, Albert."

Result he thought. He finally got her to say his name and he couldn't help but notice that his name sounded wonderful rolling off her tongue. He shook his head to clear his thoughts before addressing Maria again.

"Ok, the reason I called you hear Maria is because you have been with us for six months now and I'd like to know how your finding the job so far." He informed her while looking into her emerald green eyes from behind his sunglasses. He found her eyes to be mesmerising. If he was honest with himself, he found them to be the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen. His thoughts were interrupted when Maria responded to his question.

"So far I've found the job to be a wonderful experience. I get along well with everyone and I find all the paperwork and stuff to be relatively easy."

Wesker leaned back in his chair before replying to Maria's statement. "Excellent. I never had any doubt that you would not be able to cope with the job. It's good to hear your finding it ok."

"Thank you Albert."

God she is beautiful. What. I shouldn't be thinking that. Sarah is a dear friend and what if she doesn't feel that way. He shook his head once again to clear his thoughts and then proceeded to ask Maria if she would be at the bar for the teams usual drinking evening. She assured him that she would be there and got up and left his office.

After Maria left the office, Wesker was wondering why on earth, all of a sudden, he had started to think about Maria that way. He now knew that he had feelings for Maria but was quite frankly scared about telling her in case she didn't return those feelings. He didn't want to risk their friendship and end up making things awkward especially at work. With a sigh of frustration, he returned to his paperwork.

Maria was sitting at her desk typing up a report when she was interrupted by Jill.

"Hey Maria." Jill said.

"Oh hey Jill. What's up." Maria asked.

"I just wanted to ask you when you get your lunch break?"

Maria stopped typing to answer Jill, "I get my break in about a couple of minutes. Why do you ask."

"I was wondering if you want to have lunch with me and Becca down in the canteen."

"Sure why not. I'll meet you guys down in the canteen when I'm done with this report ok." Maria replied.

"Ok we'll see you there." Jill left Maria to finish her report and meet Rebecca down in the canteen. Maria finished the report just in time for lunch. She would give the report to Wesker when she got back and so got up of her seat, carrying her lunch in a bag with her, to meet Jill and Rebecca for lunch.

Once she arrived at the canteen, she sat down at the table where Jill and Rebecca were seated.

"Hey Maria. How you doing?" Rebecca asked once Maria sat down.

"I'm doing good thanks, Becca." She then took a bite out of her cheese, ham and tomato sandwich then said to Jill and Rebecca, "Wesker decided to review me today."

"What did he say to you." Jill asked.

"He just wanted to know how I've been finding the job." Maria responded. "I told him I'm finding it ok and that I get along well with everyone. Oh I meant to ask you guys. In all the time you've known Wesker, have you ever seen him without those sunglasses on?"

Jill and Rebecca shook their heads. "No I've never seen him with them off. Why do you ask."

"I just wonder what his eyes look like."

Rebecca gave Maria a curious look before saying, "Why do you wanna know that?"

"I'm just curious. The man is a mystery and I intend to solve him. I'd love to see his eyes. I don't know why I just do." Maria responded.

"Oh I think I do." Jill said with amusement.

Maria just looked at her and said, "Oh really. Care to share."

"Oh come on Maria. It's totally obvious. You have a crush on him."

Upon hearing that statement, Maria's face went completely beetroot, "I do not have a crush on Wesker."

"Oh no then why is your face bright red then." Rebecca cut in.

Maria could tell that Rebecca and Jill were on to her. In truth she had a crush on Wesker from the moment she laid eyes on him. He was the perfect gentleman and looked absolutely handsome. But she didn't say anything for two reasons. One she didn't want to ruin her friendship with him if he didn't feel the same way and two he's her boss.

"Maria. Hello Maria. Wake up." Jill said snapping Maria out of her thoughts. "So do you like Wesker as more than a friend."

"Yeah I do."

"Well then you need to tell him." Rebecca said.

Maria quickly looked up from her lunch and said, "No I can't and you two can't go about saying anything either."

"Why not." Jill and Rebecca said in unison

"Because I don't wanna risk ruining our friendship if he doesn't feel the same way that I do. Please don't say anything to anybody." She pleaded with both of them. They both agreed not to say anything and continued with their lunch. Once back at the office, Maria went to give Wesker her report and Jill and Rebecca were discussing lunch.

"She really should tell him how she feels." Jill said.

"Yeah but you heard her. She won't say anything till she's sure he feels the same way."

"Well that's sorted. Tonight when we're all at the bar. I can get Chris to try and find out how Wesker feels about Maria and if he does feel the same way. We can take it from there."

"Oh good idea Jill. Do you think Chris can get it out of Wesker. You know what he's like. He keeps himself to himself." Rebecca replied.

"Chris will be able to get it out of him. Him and Wesker have been friends for years. Way before STARS was formed."

"Ok then sounds like a plan." And the two parted ways. Jill approached Chris and proceeded to ask him if he would find out how Wesker feels about Maria. He didn't agree to it at first but with some encouragement from Jill he reluctantly agreed to do it.

When work finished that day, everybody left immediately to go home, get showered and changed for a night out. Maria decided to leave her hair down and had her makeup pretty much the same as work except she added a little bit of light green eyeshadow. She wore a red tank top with a picture of an angel on it with some glitter, a pair of tight fitting black jeans with a pair of black high heel boots and a simple black jacket. After deciding that she looked at least decent, she headed out to the bar.

When she finally arrived at the bar, she noticed the whole team was there and she immediately went over to join her team mates at the tables. She noticed Wesker looking at her and she gave him a smile which he returned. God I love his smile she thought to herself. The evening was mostly spent talking and enjoying their drinks. Maria and Wesker kept stealing small glances at each other causing both of them to blush slightly. After a few moments of talking and drinking, one of Maria's favourite songs came on and she dragged Jill and Rebecca out of their seats to dance. When they were dancing, Wesker couldn't help but notice the way her body moved while dancing. A million thoughts raced through his mind causing him to lick his lips. Chris noticed then remembered what he had promised Jill about asking Wesker what he thought of Maria.

"Enjoying the show, Wesker", Chris asked nudging Wesker and gesturing to Jill, Rebecca and Maria.

"I suppose you could say that Chris." He said not taking his eyes off Maria.

"So which girl has your attention then?"

Wesker looked to Chris, then looked back to Maria and said, "What makes you say that Chris?"

"Well you can't take your eyes off them so come on just tell me who it is. You know I can keep secrets and I won't stop asking until you tell me so you might as well get it over with." Chris said hoping Wesker would tell him.

Before answering Chris, he looked around to make sure none of the other were listening in and gave Chris the answer he was waiting to here, "Ok I'll tell you but if you tell anyone else then I'll make you run fifty laps round the course," Chris nodded in response, "Ok it's Maria."

A look of surprise appeared on Chris's face before saying, "Woah I thought you guys were just friends."

"We are but lately I've started to think of her as more than a friend."

"What are you going to do about it?" Chris asked.

"To be honest, I don't really know. I really care about her but I don't want to scare off by telling her I love her."

"Well then you have to tell her. Best to be honest with her."

"I suppose you're right Chris." Both men finished their drinks and before long, everybody was going home. Jill pulled Chris aside as they were leaving the bar.

"So what did Wesker say?"

"He definitely likes her. He even told me he loves her. I think he might end up telling her the truth."

"Perfect. Maria feels the exact same way. So all we need to do is figure out a way to get them together alone so they can tell each other."

"Ok then but we'll do it tomorrow ok."

"Ok then. Thanks Chris." She gives Chris a hug and both go their separate ways to their homes.
