J.L.: Well, that week sucked. Sorry it's taken a while but I had a horrible week and I really didn't want that affect my mood on here. The one good thing that came of it was the fact I finally got my eyebrow pierced, something I've wanted for about four years now. Anyways, Thank you Dead I Rain for pointing out that there was an inconsistency with Rebecca being Danny Quentin. I should probably look into getting a Beta Reader sometime, but all and all, I'll confess, that bit was just thrown in there because I needed Rebecca back in the picture. So, for the sake of keeping this story at least plausible, Let's say that Rebecca's been in town since chapter 30, and the whole PoV titles are prone to being manipulative towards the readers?
The next week, S.T.A.R.S. Office (1st of December if you're following the dates): Rebecca
Kevin and Chris were racing each other through the obstacle course while Erin and Axel warmed up for their race against each other. My partner, Max Paine and I drank from our water bottles, cooling down from our race. The other recruit from our group had quit due to a better job offering. The best part is, Jill has no idea Ive been here all along, harassing all the other girls. I thought Ada was crazy when she brought me in and told me to look around the police station for a hidden lab, but who am I to complain? I've already got my college degree, and if I help Ada bust Wesker, I'll be recognized enough to get that head researcher position at Umbrella. Jill walked out of her office and up to us, blowing her whistle for us to gather together. Chris tripped over a tire and stumbled to run up to her, while the rest of us just casually walked over.
"Alright, I have about a month and a half to whip you guys into better shape to pass your physical exams. The workouts from here on out are going to get tougher, and before you even ask, yes, I myself will be undergoing the routine with you. Any questions?" Jill asked. I smirked at her. She's so banging Chris again. Her foundation hides the hickeys he leaves, but she doesn't take the time to blend it in with her skin. Chris, hell, he's just easy to read around her.
"Just one, Date Friday?" I asked, smiling widely. Jill rolled her eyes and I watch Chris glare slightly.
"Yeah, sure Quentin, I'll pick you up when they drop." She replied, and everyone cracked up laughing. I faked embarassment, but had to smile. At least now she's a bit more relaxed around us.
"So, call it a day Sarge?" Axel asked and she nodded.
"Sure. It's almost time to head for the bus anyways." She answered and headed back for her office. Chris and Kevin sat on the ground along with Max, while Erin and Axel walked to their lockers to grab their stuff.
"So Chris, you sure your ex is sleeping with the Chief? I mean, it's not we see them hold any regard towards each other." I spoke. Chris studied me for a moment.
"Dan, could you not bring that up?" He pleaded.
"Actually, it is kind of weird. I mean, even the most professional couple show some affection in their eyes towards one another in the office. Jill and Wesker are like icebergs to each other." Kevin spoke. Chris shrugged.
"What does it matter anyway?" He asked.
"It doesn't really, but I hope those two don't get married. That's one couple that would kill each other if they had to live together. I mean, they've been dating for what, a year or so and still haven't moved in together? Something's wrong with that." Max spoke. For an instant, I saw a flash of fear wave on Chris's face. My primary mission is to infiltrate the Police Station and acquire the location of the Laboratory entrance. I need a distraction to keep Wesker from keeping surveillance on the building and what better way than to stir up some more drama with this little love triangle? Hm...I can easily get Ada to slip a idea into Wesker's head...
"Well, He is planning to pop the question soon." I spoke, stretching. Chris's face shot up to my latex covered one, anger and fear coming off in waves.
"What?" Erin asked as she and Axel walked up.
"Yeah, a few days ago, I wasn't sure if it was him or not, but I saw Wesker go into a jeweler's. When he was warning me last night about the harassment charges I would be facing if I continued teasing Jill, I saw a little black box sitting on his desk." I said, hoping that I'd be able to contact Ada as soon as I could get away from the rest and get her to slip the idea.
"Oh man...could you imagine the kids?" Kevin asked. Axel's face twisted into disgust.
"I don't know. I mean, Jill's got beautiful eyes...and a blue eyed blondie would steal anyone's heart." Erin volunteered.
"Yeah, but could you imagine Wesker as the father?" I added in. There, Chris had that determination set in his face. I smiled widely as I saw Jill approach.
Hours Later: Chris
Pacing the room, I tried to focus on what to do. She still has to act like she loves him! If he pops the question, she'll have to answer yes or our cover is blown! Wait...what if she is in love-no...Jill couldn't be! I balled my hand into a fist and grabbed for the phone. After dialing a number, someone picked up.
"Hey Chris." Leon greeted.
"I need a huge favor!" I exclaimed, glad I reached the right man.
Night: Jill
Sorting out a bit more paperwork, I heard a knock and then my door opened. Sitting back, I saw it was Chris, and I smiled at him but the smile faded away when I saw his facial expression.
"Something wrong hun?" I greeted and he stopped in the middle of my living room, uncertainty crossing his features.
"I uh...uh..." He tried. Now what in the hell is bothering him? He's never this uneasy...I set my pen down and stood up, walking towards him. He sat down on my couch, and dug into his leather jacket. He pulled something out and threw it at me. I caught it and looked down, surprised to see a slightly rusty old necklace with a dirty old ring on it. Oh my god.
"Is this...did you find this in the lake?!" I asked. He looked up, worry set in his eyes.
"Yeah. Took me a while and a couple of paychecks, but I found it." He spoke. I was frozen. What now then? I studied him, eager to know what was next.
"Chris...I...I don't deserve this." I spoke, the words just slipping from my lips before I could stop them. Chris stood up and pulled me close to him, determination set in his eyes.
"Shut up, Marry me, and no buts about it." He spoke. My eyes widened and I tried to speak but found myself lost for words. This wasn't how I was imagining him proposing to me...then again...wait...
"What?" I asked, the stupid just dribbling it's way out of my mouth.
"Marry me now, before we do anything else wrong." Chris spoke.
"What?! Like, right now?!" I gasped, shocked.
"Yes right now." He spoke.
"Seriously, right now?"" I gaped, having another sudden drop of intelligence attack.
"Yes, right now Jill. I've got everything ready right now." He assured. I cracked a smiled and started laughing. Oh my god his crazy ass means it. He's completely serious.
"Are you fucking kidding me?" I asked, amazed.
"Yes or no Jill." He spoke with an air of finality. I stopped laughing and bit my lip. This is crazy, this is absolutely freaking nuts. This is...I smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, let's do it." I answered.
The Church, forty minutes later: Leon
Ada stood beside me, waiting for Chris to show up with Jill. It's kind of in bad taste that he asked me to find someone other than Claire to be a witness, but he wants to keep this as secret as possible.
"If she's smart she'll say no and run." Ada spoke. I cracked a smile.
"He is pretty crazy. What the hell got him pumped up like this though?" I asked.
"Well, a certain little green eyed prodigy slipped out that Wesker was maybe thinking about it and well..." Ada mildly spoke, glancing at her nails.
"You know, that crazy basturd found that ring." I said.
"He did?" She asked.
"Yeah, he was talking to Claire on the phone about Jill throwing the ring into the lake, so I kind of left a magazine about scuba diving in his house when Claire and I visited him." I volunteered and Ada smiled. A car pulled stopped in front of the Church and Chris bolted out, wearing a tee shirt, jeans and his leather jacket.
"Oh he is not seriously going to wear that-" Ada started as Chris opened the passenger door to reveal Jill wearing a hoodie and jeans.
"You know, they're both pretty crazy." i spoke as Jill's eye spanned to us, shocked.
"Chris-"Jill spoke.
"I know I know, they're suppose to be here, I told you I had everything together, now come on." Chris spoke and lead Jill up the stairs. Jill was lost in confusion as They stopped in front of us.
"Claire's going to kill you when she finds out." I greeted and pulled out the box with the two tungsten wedding bands to hand to Chris.
"Not if Wesker does first, now come on, we're already fifteen minutes late." Chris responded and headed into the church.
"I'm late for my wedding?" Jill asked as she slipped in right behind him. Ada and I stepped inside as Chris and Jill walked down the aisle to where the priest was, looking rather annoyed.
"Well we wouldn't be if you'd just said yes in the first place." Chris smarted out, smirking as they stopped in front of the priest.
"Oh yeah, blame it on me. Not like I knew this was going to happen tonight." Jill replied back smugly.
"You think I had this in mind this morning?" Chris asked.
"You are so telling me after this is done and over with what the hell drove you to insanity." Jill spoke as she took Chris's hands.
"Are we ready to commence the ceremony now?" The priest asked dryly.
"Yes, sorry about the wait, it took the clerk ten minutes to find the license." Chris apologized.
Meanwhile: Wesker
I studied the subject as William continued to inject the virus into him.
"You know, I owe your father one for this. I would have never been able to do my research if he-" William spoke.
"You know better than that William. Spencer has always wanted you to work for him. It was just a shame that you got Annette pregnant." I cut him off.
"Yes...but really, thanks Albert." William spoke as the subject began to jerk wildly on the table he was strapped to.
"No problem. Just continue your research. I'll keep them up top occupied." I bid and left the lab. Soon, I'll have the S.T.A.R.S. down here to form the first squad of enhanced soldiers. I smirked as I continued on to my office and opened the top drawer. I wonder...how would Jill respond to that, knowing that I have a bigger set of plans other than claiming her as mine. The diamond ring I had bought just two hours before still sat comfortably in it's hiding place. Ah, but never mind that, I suppose I should get some rest...tomorrow is another day and I plan on making Chris's day a living hell. After all, you can't be sleeping with my girlfriend and not expect me to not get under your skin.
J.L.: Originally, I was going to knock Jill up on accident "Whoop, I'm preggo, sorry Weskie, not your kid!" but then I thought on it and it just didn't seem to click. Besides, I already have a story about Jill and Chris's progeny, so why put that in here? Let me know what you think, and I might keep my eyes open for a possible Beta partner.
