A/N: This story is a sequel to another story of mine Secrets Within, so I'd ask you read it before, so this one makes more sense to you. The whole story is in 1st POV in Leon's perspective but it does changes sometimes to other people and 3rd person, so I'll be putting tags so it's not that confusing. It's re-upload of the same story with better grammar, fewer errors, less inconsistencies and splitting up of last chapter.
Disclaimer: I don't own Resident Evil or any of its characters; they all belong to Capcom.
Chapter 1
(Leon's POV)
I hurried towards the visitor's room walking as fast as I could. I almost drove 80 MPH to get to my office from the White House without even informing the President or Hunnigan. Just asked Ashley to take care of everything and in exchange god knows what I'll be doing tomorrow but this was important. It was reported to me that we were finally able to find one of them and I didn't know which one was it, they just said it was one of the two women missing. When I asked them to ask her name she didn't tell them 'cause she wanted to see me and the others, well not exactly others and especially me. It had been a little over five months since they went missing and it was pretty much unexpected that we would find them so soon, since they both were good at hiding from us.
If I had to guess which one of two is back I am totally confused, since I didn't ask how the woman that showed up looks like or anything about her and the people at work didn't bother to tell me either. I was very excited to meet her whoever she was, because I was really worried for both and John would always joke whom I was worried about more whether it was Ada or Kathleen.
I took a deep breath before I pushed the door open and saw two men standing by a woman talking to her, they were David and Barry. I also informed them and everybody before getting here. Then my eyes shifted to the woman as she got up and moved to hug me and I hugged her back, "I missed you so much", the words just escaped from my lips as we hugged each other.
"Me too, I Love you so much", Ada said very much to my surprise.
'Did I hear her wrong she just confessed her love for me', I couldn't help but think since I never thought I'd hear something like that from her.
"I am so sorry I didn't say it before, I wasn't honest with my feelings but I really do love you… ", she spoke crying and I could feel her tears wetting my shirt.
"It's okay; I have always loved and still love you", I told her and we pulled away from each other.
"Oh Leon got her love back", John said making fun of me stepping in the room.
"How sweet, you made me cry Kennedy", Claire said with a smile, following him.
"Redfield", I said glaring at her but she only smiled and I knew she was happy for me.
After everybody joined us we asked Ada what happened and she told us that when she was in coma a man attacked her, probably wanting to kidnap her and maybe this is what pulled her out of coma. She somehow managed to escape and hid herself for some days and tried to figure out why was the man after her and since she had nowhere to go, Wesker being dead and all, she came back to me… I mean us.
When we asked her if she had any idea what happened to Kathleen, there was a sudden change of expression and she acted indifferent about the matter saying that she doesn't want to concern herself with Kathleen and does not know anything about her and it doesn't bother to her if she's dead or alive. Hearing such harsh words made us drop the meeting and we decided to get back to our respective work. David told Ada to get a medical checkup just in case.
"Only one more to go", I looked sideways and saw that John was walking by me as we headed for the parking, "You were too lost to notice", he said smirking.
"I was just thinking where Kathleen would be", I told him the truth.
"She would be okay, if Ada escaped she would have also escaped, I mean they're equally capable", John said in a 'so-obvious' tone.
"Yeah I hope we get to meet her soon", I said hopefully.
"But I think your new found girlfriend wouldn't be happy to see her", he said rolling his eyes halfway.
"Oh c'mon it's not like I'll two time them", I said, I didn't see any reason for Ada to hate her if she shows up; of course it was evident that she wasn't fond of Kathleen but I don't think that she'd be bothered if Kathleen shows up.
"Maybe you will. I mean you know both are most wanted", he said smiling.
"I think you have your eyes on Kathleen, so I'll stick to Ada", I said jokingly.
"Hey don't talk loud if my girlfriend heard it she would throw me out of the house", John said hushing me, "Anyways did you get yourself a new place?"
"No, I decided to move in the house which the President gave me for saving Ashley, actually I have already moved in yesterday. Didn't haveto do too much since the house was fully furnished already", I replied.
"So is it big enough for Ada and you", he asked suggestively.
"I don't think she would like to move in just yet", I said shaking my head at John's habit of sticking his nose in other people matters but it was a trait that kept all of us entertained. We both reached our respective car talking about trivial stuff along the way.
"See you later Kennedy, have to work", He said getting in the car. Since our last big mission or rather I should say adventure and our common base destroyed and after loads of explanation to President himself got us back on our work plus the Agents who weren't part of any other Agency like Percy and John were each offered to work with US Secret Service and that was the reason why John was here with the rest of guys, since they all proved how important and valuable they were in this fight against Bio-terrorism.
I unlocked my car electronically and looked at the setting sun, when I woke up today I didn't knew this day would end like this. I didn't have a clue that Ada would come to us and I never in my life dreamt of her saying those three words I wanted to hear from her. My life just felt good to me now, just one thing or I should say one person was missing, 'Hope we find you soon Kathleen.'
