Hi guys, sorry for taking so long to update so and for my delay I'm going to publish two chaps this time. Thanks for reviewing and reading my story, it means a lot. Sorry for any mispellings and I hope you enjoy it.
"So then back in the day at the shooting area training. The air was awkward between me and Claire and I could see your suspicious look and all I could think at that moment was how to get out of it, what to do, what to say and get your trust once again without blocks, but there was no answer".
- Good morning Jill. Leon said smiling openly
- Good morning Leon. She responded but feeling something in the air
- It's great to see you so early... bright my day! He said smiling
- What? She asked confused
- Nothing.
- Say it! She said
He paused before answering
- Told ya, it's nothing… I didn't expect to see you here so early in the morning. Leon said
- Hmm, I don't buy it, but if you don't wanna say, ok, I won't push you.
There was an awkward silence between them, but Leon broke it with a soft laugh. He couldn't hold himself anymore as he saw Jill a bit temperamental, she looked even prettier.
- I didn't expect see you here either. She said
- Sometimes I come here for shooting without anyone spying on me. He explained
- I know what you mean.
- So… Do you feel like sporting with me? He asked her
- With you or against you? She replied
- Which one do you prefer? He asked
- We could mix. Some together, some against. What do you think? She replied
- Yeah… we should mix! [ his little demon came to his mind with different meaning] and smiled to her
Meanwhile Claire was already at the training area thinking at the encounter a few minutes ago with "that one". She was sitting at the bench looking at her armory, but with distant thoughts. She could believe that they would meet at this place, never crossed her mind. He was at government, they have their own area, what the hell was he doing there? But mostly, why was she so intrigued by that, by him. It was just a touching lips, that's it. No reason to be like that or act like they had committed a sin, a crime. She just felt like a teenager after her first kiss. Her thoughts were broken when she heard Jill's laugh. She looked at her and followed by her there was Leon. They were laughing together. What was it about?
They went to her direction and she prepared herself to face him again, but now there were no excuses to back off. Now it was the time to face him and act like nothing had happened. They approached. She saw him and the "worse" happened, he acted like there was no clue, like nothing occurred last night, like he never touched her intimately. Is a kiss intimate? Moreover, was that a kiss?...
- Ready? Jill asked her
- For what? She replied
- To shoot as a competition. We both together against Leon and himself.
- Heeey, this isn't fear! He complained
- Shut up, we're women and you're a man, you can handle two at once… (She paused) Or maybe you're supposed to…
"Is she talking dirty? Is she trying to hint something about me and Claire? Or am I going crazy?" he thought to himself
- Yes I can… he was interrupted by Jill
- Don't worry, each of us will team up with later so you won't feel alone.
- Ohh, don't do that. I don't deserve that much attention. Stay you two together, never separate. Women and women always!
- No need for irony man, it's just some kind of fear, that's all! Claire said
- Thanks anyway, but I don't wanna separate you two, you look good together. It's a beautiful partnership! He replied
The three of them got looking at each other speechless.
- So let's get it started! The three of them said at the same time
They counted until three and hid. It was a large field, full of hides that simulated caverns, structures of real action. It had grass, pipes, sacs, tunnels, trees, walls, and looked like a park. There was an area only for straight shooting, but they preferred to simulate, but with paint guns.
They chose some in a 9mm type and others that resembled a shotgun. Leon and Jill also picked a knife each.
The game started. Jill and Claire hid behind a wall which was close of a ramp to a mini-house. Leon hid behind a wall which was rounded of chains, ropes and an entrance to a tunnel. The three of them studied the camp from hidden holes and planned their strategy. The mini house where Jill and Claire were was a dead end. Only a spot to protect from shots. Leon had more lucky where he followed the tunnel carefully and see where it would take. It was dark, only illuminated by holes that illuminated the path with the daylight. It ended in a small entrance near the floor which headed to the outside, near the mini house. Jill and Claire needed another place to stay. They searched for Leon, but no clue of him.
- I cover you. Claire said
- Ok, I go first. I'll run to behind those sacs. And she did, Claire stayed waiting and watching some act of Leon. He didn't do anything. Just observed what they were doing from a hole on the wall. He couldn't go back, the only exit he had was the small one under him. There were sacs near the exit, but they could shoot him if he weren't fast enough. Claire reached Jill.
- He's watching us, we need a plan. I could see where he entered, there are only two ways he can get out of there, one is from where he entered, and the other is that small passage near those sacs. Jill explained
- Ok, so we'll wait for him.
- Yes, but I'm sure he's waiting for us either. I'm thinking of throwing a bait. One of us pretend is heading to that entrance and another stay in position to see where he leaves. Jill continued
- You go and I cover you. Claire said
Jill moved slowly on the floor, but she needed to be fast to get to the entrance which some sacs ended and she could be caught. Some poles could difficult the aiming, but they also got on the way. She started preparing herself for the run. Leon only watched pointing his gun. Jill ran to the next sac close. Leon shot. Jill got down.
-Lost your patience Leon? Jill provocated
- Nope, I just got bored as you two need so much time to think even as two brains are working together. Guess is not functioning that much as they say as two heads think better than one! He replied
- Hahaha, you're impressive with all your sayings Leon. Really smart ones! Claire replied
- Exactly Claire, he's using his brain head one. You know, actually if we go real, it's totally fear our game, you and me equals two Heads together against Leon, the man one which is being only jealous at us! Jill said and Claire laughed. Leon ignored the comment until the last part one… the jealousy
- Why would I be Jealous? Leon asked
- You're jealous because the two of us are not the ones who have a brainless head! She answered. Leon and Claire laughed at that comment
- Well I suppose you have two heads… Jill continued
- Do you wanna know? I can show you! He replied
- So come, I can't see from here. She replied
- Come to me and I'll show you.
- Don't be shy Leon, show yourself to us. Claire entered the provocation
- You're the ones who wanna see it, so you two come to me!
- Oh Leon, you're just intimidated by two women! Guess you're not that much you said… Jill provocated more
- Oh no sweetie, I can handle the two of you for sure… he was interrupted
- No Jill, he can't, he's got an issue with women, especially when they tell him what to do as they're not condescendant with him! Claire said
Jill laughed with Claire, Leon got annoyed and replied
- Oh My God!!!
- What happened? Jill and Claire answered simultaneously.
- Oh my god, is that what all of your brains can do??? I'm impressed or maybe… disappointed! Only using my One brain I can do better than that! He replied
- Really? Never seen that much even when we were in Raccoon together… Claire replied as Jill ran to behind the poles. Leon shot several times, but Jill was faster
- Well, sorry for you Claire, but I could see the more experienced brain doing something besides getting lied down on the floor. Guess you're not that much either… he replied
- But you missed all of them… Claire replied
- She's willing to get to check to head she supposed me to have, if I hit her it would miss the fun before it even started. I feel like seeing two brains working! He replied
- Ok then, is that what you want, that's what you'll get! Jill replied as she entered the entrance where Leon was. Claire moved closely to another sac. Leon was in cornered. Or he faced Jill or he passed the small passage, but that was the point. He needed to think fast, to face Claire outside or Jill inside, but with a lucky wave, he looked upside and saw a hole so he could leave for there, and he only needed to get in there quickly before Jill approached. He put the shotgun on the floor, it didn't pass together with, he only kept the handguns. Claire waited from outside him to leave the small passage, but she was caught as she saw him on the branch. She shot him, but missed it, he was fast, really fast as he jumped through the branches and headed the floor and shot back Claire.
- Jill he's out here. Claire screamed
Jill got back the entrance and almost hit him, but he was saved by a pole. Claire shot him and Jill, he shot them back as he hid himself and swerved from the shots. Jill was finally facing his fame of being fast. Definitely he was really fast.
- Guess someone is with limited ammo. Jill said as she showed his paint shotgun
- Yep, I guess you need more than me. He replied sarcastically
- Yeah, maybe you're right, I gotta admit, but your fame goes across you. Jill replied
- Really, what fame? He asked
- You're fast. She answered
- Maybe... He replied
Claire decided to get out of that sac and headed to another one closer to Leon. He noticed it. He looked up and saw a cable crossing. He used it, but it pointed to Jill's position. But she didn't have a good view from where she was, so she reached another point getting a bit away from him. She hated that, he was at her direction, but that damn pole in her sight!!! It got her angry.
- Don't be afraid Leon, you're running away from me, why? Claire teased
- I'm not. He replied as he landed
- Yes, you are, you run away from me every time I get closer.
- Maybe I prefer to be killed by the legendary Valentine! He teased
- Oh my god, did hear that partner? Claire asked Jill
- Oh yes partner, it made my day, it even made me forget my anger for a minute, my ego loved it, thanks Scorpio! But now I'll feel bad killing him! Jill replied
- Oh no, don't feel like that Jill. He doesn't deserve it! Claire said
Suddenly their fun was interrupted by a ring, their time ended. They forgot they had scheduled a running time as they didn't have the intention to take long. And besides, Leon had to work.
- Sorry ladies, but I gotta go. We're definitely survivors, no one got shot for 2 hours. See ya later…Leon said as he quickly left the camp
- Bye. They replied
Jill and Claire got facing each other confused with his quick leaving. They shrugged.
- Do you feel like doing it yet? Claire asked
- Nope actually, I'm calmer. Jill replied
- Ok, let's keep it and you need to tell me what the secret of you two is! Claire teased
- What do you mean? Jill confused
- Ah come 'on Jill, I know you for a good time to know when you get into someone!
- I don't get you Claire, you think I'm into who?
- Don't try to play games with me Jill, I noticed it!
- What? Jill asked awkwardly
- You and Leon… you two are intimates; you're even calling him by a nickname… Scorpio! That's so cute… Claire was interrupted
- You're wrong! We're not intimates!
- Really??? It doesn't seem like that when you're two together. I noticed the way he looks at you. And the way you two provocated each other, there's something going on, I can feel it and I don't usually miss it! Claire continued
- This time you're wrong, there's nothing between me and him. Even though he's younger and not my type. And I don't have time for it! Jill replied
- Uhum… right! He's not your type and younger!... uhum!! Carlos is younger too and you got him… and you don't have time for it…uhmmm, it what? Claire winked
- We're in a middle of a war, a viral war… Jill replied
- It didn't stop you from kissing Carlos and getting too close to Leon… Claire teased more
- I'm not Too close to Leon; I can tell that you're the one Too close to him… Jill opened the game
- There's nothing between me and him! Claire replied a bit nervous
- Uhum… yeah, there's nothing between you two, just you can't face each other, and I can tell it's since last night… come' on Claire you can tell me the truth, I noticed it! Jill replied
Claire knew Jill had noticed, but Jill is discreet and preferred to ignore it, but as Jill was teased she had to throw the bomb back to her. Now she had to deal with what she own started.
- It's the truth, there's nothing between us, we just touched lips, but it was stupid, nothing more, nothing less… that was it! Besides that, Nada… I know he wants you. Claire thought fast
Jill didn't know, but she felt a soft sharp on hearing the "touching lips" of Claire and Leon. She noticed something had happened between those two, but having the confirmation wasn't supposed to feel like that, or was it? What exactly was going on with her, Claire was right, they have been spending time together a bit, but just talking, but why was she hit by that comment of "touching lips"? They're only friends… or acquaintances; she doesn't even know how to describe them, but one thing is for sure… it hit her somehow.
- He wants me? Why do you say that… as I noticed he wants everyone, he's a flirter, a man whore! Jill replied
- No Jill, the way he looks at you is different, the way he treats you is different. He's not being a man whore with you. Claire replied
- How can you be sure of it? You barely know him, or maybe you know him more than the touching lips you said you had… Jill said with a darker tone
Claire noticed the darker tone of Jill when she said "touching" and now she was right, Jill had feelings for Leon either, but didn't want to admit it even to herself.
- You know I'm not lying, I think you should stop doing it to yourself, I tell you as a friend, as a person who knows you for a quite long time and wants your good. Claire replied
- I'm not lying to myself! Plus, you're not anyone to tell me what to do even knowing me for a long time! Jill replied sharply
- So why are you angry, Hun? Why are you yelling at me like that? Just because of Leon? Come' on Jill…
- Who said I'm angry? I'm not yelling, I just don't like intromissions in my life.
- Your tone shows you're angry about me and Leon I'm not getting into your life, you do whatever you want to, but I won't lie, you two are beautiful together, I think you should stop controlling yourself that much and let go of things. Stop being so severe with yourself. Claire replied calmly
Jill sighed. Claire was right, her tone wasn't that soft. And Claire was right about her being severe with her own. And also to stop controlling herself. How could Claire be so precise without even being told about things?
- Sorry, I didn't mean to. I don't know what's going on with me. Jill talked apologetic
- It's ok Jill, I'm not angry about that. I thought of telling you last night, but there was the whole thing with Carlos and you know. And I know what's going on with you…
- Yeah, Carlos was a pain in the ass… what do you think is going on with me?
Claire smiled gently and answered – You're in love!
Hearing it made Jill open her eyes, made her mind blank, made her stop breathing for a while and then sighing deeply. Could it be true? Even fulfilled of questions, deeply inside she felt like Claire was right. But why this fear of letting go? Why was it so hard for her to admit it? She was a mess. Mind disturbed, she needed a break. But was she really going to have it?
So, that's the chap ending, hope you liked, and once more, sorry for the misspellings, but it's not like I don't know how to write it, but I try to write as much as we in real life speak and also I write so fast that sometimes I miss some words, I still have this awful habit of not revising it and most of times only when I publish I see that mistakes… sorry about that I'll work on that bad habit… Feel free to review it. Bye =)
