Authors Note: I figured that I would put one of these up just for my own safety since everyone else does it...I don't own anything in this story except the storyline and the few original characters. Other than that I own nothing so don't sue me.

Chapter 4

Depositing her money in the jukebox Ada thumbed through the selections trying to find something she could dance to yet relay a message to Leon on what he might be losing if he continued with his hard headed attitude. And then she found it "Bad Girlfriend" by Theory of a Deadman. Not quite up to her standards normally but it would serve her purposes for what she planned. When the music started she swayed with the music at the beginning then as the lyrics started she commenced a routine that would make any man take notice. Which everyone in the bar was already staring.

"Ada?" Leon said surprised as she jumped onto the bar and started dancing wildly. She grabbed a shot that Mike had prepared for someone else and gulped it down and continued to dance to the far end of the bar. Then as the chorus started she ran back to the other end of the bar and did a no hand cartwheel to the floor. She put her hands in her hair and mussed it up as she danced more seductively, using all of her flexibility and her feminine charm to put on one hell of a show.

"Holy shit who is that angel chief?" Dent asked.

"Trust me she's no angel." Leon scowled. "More like a devil with a teal dress on."

Ada danced her way over to the table that Leon and the rest were sitting at, noticing all of them but the one she wanted were staring at her with awe. Leon was looking at his drink trying his best to ignore her. "Ok Sheriff I guess I have to pull out all the stops." she said as she was next to the table. She danced around behind Leon and ran her fingers through his hair, tussling it and leaving it look a little worse for wear. Then she took off her ribbon and laced it under Leon's chin and pulled his head back so he could see her. She leaned in and gave him a long kiss then stripped the ribbon from him and continued dancing around him, all the while the rest of his team were hooting and hollering.

All except Karen that is, she knew who this woman was and what she has done to Leon in the past and she wasn't about to be fooled by her. "I know what your up to and I won't let you get away with it." she whispered to Ada as she made her way by.

"Hmm" Ada replied with a smirk. Then she walked back around by Leon and grabbed him by the hands and pulled him out of his chair to dance with her.

"What exactly are you doing Ada?" he asked "Was I not serious enough this afternoon."

As she moved around him she moved her hands along his back then his chest and said "Leon it's not what your thinking, I'm really here on your behalf and I'm not here as Ada the agent, I'm here as Ada the woman." She stopped in front of him and pulled him in close and started dancing erotically with him. "Do you think I would make a show like this if I were here on a mission?" she asked him point blank.

"Ada I never know what to expect with you, and as much as I want you, I'm afraid." he replied "Ok there I said it, I'm afraid that I let my feelings show again and you'll trample them just like you've done before."

"I give you my solemn promise I'm not here on any other objectives than to be with you." she stopped dancing and held him close "Leon I don't want to do this anymore.I cant." she started to walk away and then song drew to a close and the whole bar erupted with applause and cheers. She put a hand over her mouth half embarrassed and half to tears and walked towards the door.

"Ada wait!!" Leon exclaimed going after her. He got out the door and grabbed her by the arm "Ada hold on." He turned her to face him and said "Do you understand where I'm coming from though?"

"Yes I do , believe me I do." she started to cry. "Because I love you Leon."

"Wha-" he started to say but was cut off by the most passionate kiss he'd ever been given before. After what seemed like a blissful eternity he broke the kiss. "Did I really just hear what I thought I did?"

"Yes you big oaf, do I need to shout it to the world. I will if I have to but please don't make me, that wouldn't be very ladylike." she said as he wiped the tears from her eyes.

"I won't make you do anything you don't want to do." he said very lightly to her. "Just tell me again one more time?"

"For you, anything handsome." she smiled " I love you Leon."

"I've been wanting to say this for the longest time to you, and I always thought that if I was the one approaching you about it you would treat me like a little schoolboy with a crush. Ada Wong I love you."

She hugged him and held him for what seemed like hours. That is until he started breathing like he was being crushed. Then she remembered she wasn't like most people. "Oops sorry." she smiled.

Leon coughed "Jesus take it easy on a fella would ya."

"Guess I don't know my strength." she said with a smirk. "Can we go back inside, I'd like to meet everyone if that's ok with you?"

"Sure let's go." he opened the door for her and followed her in back to the table. "Hey guys I got someone I want you to meet." he pulled a chair out for her and she sat down and smiled at everyone. "This is Deputy Mark Rogers my senior man."

"I believe we've met already chief." Rogers smiled as he grabbed her hand and kissed it. "You are quite stunning ma'am if you don't mind my saying so."

"Alright alright." Leon said grabbing her hand away from him "You old smoothie."

"This is Brian Walsh, Rick Dent and Amy Masters our resident rookie." he pointed around the table "And this is Karen Rider our dispatcher slash secretary." he pointed noting that Karen looked like she was about to explode. "Everyone this is Miss Ada Wong."

"Hello." she smilled around the table and locked eyes with Karen "Pleased to meet you all." she let her smile go to a smirk.

"Charmed I'm sure." Karen seethed. "If you'll excuse me I need to get another drink." she said swallowing the last of the one she had in front of her.

Leon noticed the tension between the two and offered up "I'll come with you I think everyone is ready for one anyway." he looked around to nearly full glasses and bottles and had to think quickly "Well you better finish those quick because you got another coming and you know the rules." he smiled "Do you need anything Ada?"

"Sure handsome, get me a red wine?" she asked.

"You got it." as he turned he shooed Karen in the direction of the bar "What's going on Karen, why are you two staring daggers?"

"Leon I'm not just going to sit around and watch you get hurt again, because I know what she's done to you, remember you told me all the stories." she said frantically.

"Hey, hey trust me it's gonna be ok this time, I really think she is serious." he tried to comfort her.

"It really makes me feel bad though, because all those times we joked around I was more than just partly serious Leon, I have feelings for you." she said with a tear in her eye.

"I picked up on that too." he smiled at her grabbing her ching with his thumb and forefinger "Trust me if we didn't work together there would have been no question about it, but it is what it is. Hey someone will come along to sweep you off your feet soon enough don't worry. There are a thousand guys out there like me ." he finished.

"No there's only one of you Leon Kennedy, they broke the mold when they made you." she replied as she walked to the bathroom and left him standing at the bar.

"Wow I feel like the biggest ass on earth right now." he said to himself. "Mike I need another round of drinks over there when you get a chance." he managed through the swarm of people that had come in the last few minutes. He went back to take his sit at the table across from Ada and watched while she talked with the rest of the gang, and he noticed that she had taken on a completely different look than she usually had. She looked like she was having a genuinely good time talking with his friends and listening to all the embarrassing stories they told her about him. She looked at him and noticed he was just staring at her, and she furrowed her eyebrows asking a question with her eyes. He just smiled back at her and she knew what he was thinking. He was truly and deeply in love with this woman.

"I have to freshen up gentlemen and lady, I'll be right back." Ada said getting up from her seat and giving Leon a kiss on her way to the ladies room.

"Uh, err, uh I don't think that's such a good idea Ada. Karen is back there and -" he started.

"Don't worry I'll play nice." she winked at him.

"Right." he said, rolling his eyes. He watched as she sauntered towards the ladies room. Then he turned and found the rest of the gang gawking at her exit as well, except Amy that is. She was rolling her eyes and throwing her hands up in the air in a ' I give up ' gesture." Hey do you mind?" he said.

"What oh uh." they all stuttered.

"So what's the story with her chief, I've never heard about her before. Someone like that is definitely worth mentioning." Rogers commented.

"It's a long story and one that I don't want to tell right at the moment." he returned. "Ok so let's have some fun now ok because I'm gonna be gone for awhile and," he took his Sheriff's badge off his belt "Rogers here is going to be in charge while I'm gone, so you guys treat him like you would treat me." he finished handing the badge to the Deputy.

"Oh no I can't take that chief, uh uh no way." he said.

"Oh come on you big baby, it's just for awhile, besides in all honesty you should've got it before me in the first place being that you've been here longer than anyone at the table." Leon said offering the badge up again. "I'll be back to collect it anyway, and don't get to comfortable in my chair." he winked at the older man. Leon took his fresh drink that Mike had delivered and slammed it down. "There's a new Sheriff in town people." he said aloud.

"I'll keep it warm for you cheif, so you better be back for it." he shook Leons hand.

As Ada entered the bathroom she told herself she would be nice to this woman for Leon's sake, but if for some odd reason she took a swing at her all bets were off. She was at the sink brushing water across her face to conceal the streaks of the tears. "You really care for him don't you Karen?" Ada asked her.

"What-" she started " of course I do he's my boss and my friend of course I care about him."

"Come on, I can tell it's more than that." Ada replied "I am a woman too you know."

"OK, yes I have feelings for him, so get this prom queen." Karen's fury began to build "I swear on everything I hold dear if you hurt him again I will find you and you will wish to God that you never met me." she finished.

"Hmm." Ada smirked "Well ok how do I reply to that?"

"Very carefully." Karen warned.

"I promise you I'm on the level and I am genuinely in love with Leon." Ada said matter of factly. "And if I wasn't I surely wouldn't have done that silly dance." she chuckled.

Karen smiled at this and said "Well I must admit that was one hell of a sexy entrance."

"Friends?" Ada asked with her hand outstretched.

"Friends." Karen replied shaking her hand.

Together they walked out of the bathroom and stopped at the bar. "Keep the drinks coming Mike we have a celebration to attend to." Karen told the bartender.

"Will do sugar pie." Mike winked.

Karen and Ada came to sit at the table again with the rest of the group and Leon started to worry silently to himself. "Uhm are we cool?" he asked.

They looked at each other and both gave him a big grin "Oh yea we're cool."

"Oh hell that can't be good." he replied. To which they both started laughing. "Ok MIKE I think I'm gonna need more drinks here really quick." Leon shouted.

"Right away Sheriff." Mike answered.

They all sat having drinks, sharing stories about Leon, even a few that he didn't want heard. Like the time he got hosed by a skunk and had to sit in a tomato bath for 3 days. Ada thought this story was the funniest of them all. She shared a few of the lesser encounters she had with Leon and this brought the ooh's and aah's out. Little did any of them know that a man dressed in black sporting sunglasses had entered and took a seat near the front of the place in the shadows watching and waiting for his moment.

"Enjoy your fun now Mister Kennedy..." if anyone was looking at him they would have noticed a small glimmer of red beneath the sunglasses.
