All Out of Love
Chapter One ; Jill
Months have passed since I last seen Chris Redfield, seems years. He should've tried to contact me, but no..Chris is probably busy doing his own shit, hopefully coming to Paris with his sister, Claire. Yeah, that's what I heard from Barry Burton, which I think that the news of Chris is very false.
I sit here in my hotel room with Rebecca Chambers asleep, Carlos Oliviera and Leon Kennedy (heard he's a friend of Claire) sharing a room, and Barry in his own room, where we're going to have a conference about what how the plan is going to work when we take out Umbrella. Is it me, or are we relaxing a bit too much at the moment? I lay down on my bed, sighing, wishing that something good would happen.
Now, I'm thinking of zombies...T-Viruses...Tyrants...Nemesis.. (Lions..and Tigers..and..Bears, ack..this isn't Wizard of Oz). I started getting goosebumps on my skin, thinking what would happen if zombies all of a sudden appear out of nowhere. And if Nemesis popped out of nowhere too, that would be one hell of a joy-ride. I sat up then look over at Rebecca.
"She looks like a little girl," I said to myself, picturing Rebecca as a young girl comparing her to now.
Rebecca moved a bit, facing my direction, still asleep.
'What are are the guys up to?' I thought, questioning myself about the guys whereabouts.
'They must be sleeping,' I thought again, since they're usually getting tired oh-so easily lately.
The guys must be working a little too long? No, I don't think so. After leaving my mind on what the guys are probably doing, I start to think about Chris again. I heard that he's coming to Paris tomorrow, but..what if it's all false news?
My eyes started lingering all around the room, that being awake right now is not making anything easier for me that Chris is asleep. I turn off the lamp, and stare blankly at the ceiling, then my mind wanders off to Chris again..and I felt I should just go to sleep, but..I don't know, I need to see him, his eyes, face, everything that makes me happy again.
Rebecca told me earlier, 'You and Carlos make a cute couple!' Cute couple, huh? Hell if I knew that her and Carlos would make a cute couple instead! I told her, 'I rather be with Chris,' and seeing the reaction on Rebecca's face, I knew she was going to be surprised by my response. She replied with a simple giggle and, 'Then why didn't you go out with him before?'
I closed my eyes..and I started drifting off to sleep...tomorrow is going to be a long day..I suppose.
The next day..
I woke up a bit early, it was 7 in the morning, and my body was aching a bit since I didn't get enough sleep. I took a quick shower then put on some decent clothes, afterwards made my way out the room. Surprisingly, I found Leon and Barry having a conversation in the hallway. Then, they both spotted me.
"We're going to have breakfast downstairs, wanna come along, Jill?" Barry asked me, pleading me to come along and not turn down the offer.
Leon added on another sentence, "The more, the merrier."
"Why not? Thanks," I smiled at both of them, it's better than being alone.
After the elevator ride, we went to the restaurant/buffet on the main level. The food was so good, and it wasn't even expensive. To me, I give it an A+, nothing beats French and American food all in one place. Since the good ol' breakfast, Barry, Leon, and I hung out in the lobby, sitting down, having conversations, both fun and serious. Now all we need are the rest of the gang, and we'll be as one.
"Oh yeah, I have some news to tell you two," Barry said.
"Well, what is it?" Leon asked.
I sat back and readied myself to hear what Barry has to say. It better be good news.
"I already told Rebecca about this, but Chris and Claire are arriving today," smiled Barry.
"That's great!" Leon and I said at the same time, both of us having an expression of happiness.
Leon knew Claire very well, ever since what happened back at Raccoon City. I was happy as much as he's happy, just that I'm glad to hear about Chris, and Leon was glad to hear about Claire. Now that the morning is going by quickly, hopefully I get to spend some time with Chris tonight.
