A/N Sorry i haven't updated I've been taking a break,

But here's chapter 3! Sorry for making Leon seem to oc but i needed a character to use and i thought of Leon...

any way i hope you enjoy chapter 3.

I awoke in my bed, sunlight shining in from the window nearby. I rolled over to look at my cell phone, which is charging on the nightstand.

Grabbing it and glancing at the time, as I had done every morning for the past year.

It's been tough, I got fired from my job a month ago and the money I have saved while working there is slow running out, and I didn't have many people that I could hang with,

Thinking of people I could call, Rebecca? God no! Don't get me wrong I love her like a sister, but she is a tad bit "clingy."

so that's out of the question, for a moment I thought about Leon but quickly dismissed it.

'Even if I do call him what's to say he won't hang up? We broke up almost a week ago...I'll just give it time.'

Pushing that thought away, I considered calling Chris, but I don't want to hear 'I told you so' from him.

You might be thinking why he would say that we'll let me explain.

-Flash Back-

It was back when I had just finished high school; I choose to attend a college in new york instead of my hometown raccoon city.

"Claire what are you thinking! Do you know how far new york is?" Chris shouted

"Yeah" I replied while I rolled my eyes "Chris this is my life, It's my choice...and...and if you don't

respect it then stay out of it," I said which seemed to sting Chris a bit, I admit I regretted it.

"Claire you don't have any family out there...and I can't just quit my job to go with you" Chris tried to reason with me, but I still didn't give in.

"Chris I can handle myself...Plus I won't be alone out there Rebecca is moving in with Billy out there so..." Chris isn't someone to give in easy, but he sighed

and only replied with "I swear Claire you're gonna be lonely out there...plus Rebecca and Billy will annoy you."

"You know I didn't ask for your permission; I was merely telling you, I would have left if you liked it or not."

I smiled sincerely.

Chris smiled back saying "I know" while pulling me in a bear hug.

-Flash Back End-

Suddenly my phone started ringing.

Immediately I reached for my phone; It was Rebecca calling, I was hesitating to answer but deduced that she'd just call again.

[Start of phone call]

"Claire? Billy and I wanted to know if you wanted to hang out with us later?" Rebecca said.

"no thank you, Becca," I said, I crawled out of bed, slipped on the short's that I kicked off at some point in the middle of the night.

"So...how's work been going?" Rebecca asked, "It's still kind of weird that Albert Wesker offered you a job...You're a lucky girl Claire! I'm totally jealous of you" Rebbeca adds.

"It's only Temperley...Matter of fact today is my last day." I explained.

Rebecca responded with a "Yeah whatever" before saying goodbye and hanging up.

[End of phone call]

"Maybe Chris was right? There's no one that I can hang out with.."

I said to myself "I could call Wesker? But he's my boss, not my frie-"

I was cut off mid-thought when my phone rang.

Smirking to myself "speak of the devil," I said as she looked at the caller id. Well, I didn't waste time answering that call.

[Start of phone call]

"Hello Claire," he said

"Blondie" I responded with

"I want to talk to you about something," Wesker said,

"what is it?" I asked nervously.

"We will discuss this later," Wesker said as he hung up.

[End of phone call]

well, that was puzzling, nevermind that I told myself while shrugging it off.

Heading towards my closet to find something to wear, Since I started working for Wesker about two weeks ago, I had to buy some new clothes.

Since most of my clothes contained ripped jeans and tank tops

Oh and two leather jackets.

I just put on a white button up and black suit jacket with matching pants along with some black heels,

putting my hair in a neat ponytail to complete the look and started heading out the door.

(P.S. she's wearing her Mercenaries 3D outfit if you didn't play it then you should check it out!)


I arrived at Umbrella headquarters; I noticed Wesker waiting near the elevator.

"Hey, Blondie," I teased Wesker causing him to raise an eyebrow.

"Dearheart."

"You mind following me" Wesker adds as he walked into the elevator,

I knew it was a demand and not a question, stepping in with him.

The elevator ride was short as we soon ended up in his office.

The place was big compared to mine, but it only contained one desk, two chairs, a computer. Not even one picture frame.

"Take a seat" Wesker ushered me to sit down as he did,

I soon followed.

"So what do you want to talk about?" I asked.

"In the two weeks of you working here I found the perfect person for the job, Do you know who that is," Wesker said as a smirk grew on his face

"Ummm...no?" I mumbled.

"You" was the only thing that left his mouth

"what? Really?" I said in shock

"Don't make me repeat myself" he flashed a warning.

"You may get to work now," he said while handing me a file.

Taking the file and I left the office, While I was walking, I screamed internally with glee.

'I'm working with the Albert Wesker! I can't wait to tell Chris!' she thought happily.

The day went by pretty fast leaving me exhausted.

I left 'my that's right my office' and heading out for the night.

Taking the stairs down to the bottom floor, I noticed Annette and sherry standing near the exit.

For some reason, Wesker didn't let me ride the subway home and had Annette drive me home instead.

I waved towards them, Sherry smiled and almost tackled me.

"Hey! sherry you see me nearly every day why are you trying to tackle me?" I laughed

"Isn't today your last day?" Sherry asked sadly

"Nope, I'm staying" sherry hugged me again causing me to smile brightly.

"Come on you two," Annette said with a smile.

Stepping out onto the snowy ground, I looked around the white surroundings. It's close to Christmas I realized "Hey Claire" I broke from thought to look at Annette "Yeah?"

"Sherry seems to like you a lot, She...she doesn't have any friends," Annette said

"William and I are going out of town, and we need someone to watch sherry for a few days," Annette adds

"You want me to keep an eye on her?" I asked

"Yeah, If it's not too much to ask, It's just I don't trust some stranger to look after her," Annette said.

"Sure, I'd love to" I replied with a smile and

Annette smiles back.

"Are you coming to the company Christmas party?" Annette asked

"I'm not sure" I admitted.

Annette nodded as the three arrived at the car, I didn't notice how expensive the car was before, it was a blue Lexus LX 570,

the car started after the three was seated in it.

The ride seemed short as me, and Sherry talked about school and me telling sherry that college is a lot harder than it looks.

Annette smiled once or twice during the ride.


After getting out towards my apartment building, I heard the car pull off looking back proved just that.

Heading into my apartment, I went straight for the showers.

After a nice hot shower I put a towel on myself and went into my bedroom, I jumped at a bang sound "Damn it Claire open up!" I heard someone shout it toke me a good second to realize that it was Leon.

"Ugh! what does he want?" I said to myself, we'll he will have to wait til I get dressed,

Am I not the type of person to answer the door naked with only a towel... wait? Who does that anyway? I thought,

after another bang on the door.

"GOD DAMN! I'll BE THERE SOON!" I yell, I quickly put on a simple blue t-shirt and pajama bottoms.

Heading towards the door and opening it halfway before he pushes the door heck of hard that I fell.

"You and I need to talk," he shouts.

"You look like shit," I blurt plainly.

Well, I wasn't wrong.

"So what do you want?" I ask.

"Claire this is your fault! Everything was fine till you showed up!" he bit out harshly.

"Leo-"

"Shut up! Just shut up!."

Is he high?

"What are you talking about, You've done all of this to yourself," I respond sternly.

'Leon is- no was a cop, she met him three mouths after she first moved here, and due to his drinking problem and countless other things,

Leon was dropped from the force, and that was two days after she broke things off with him.

I shook my head and started to get up "I don't have time for this." I add.

As I was walking away from Leon, he grabbed my wrist, tightly.

"LEON! WHAT THE HELL!" I shouted while trying to break my arm free.

I tried to hit him with my other arm only for him to grab it "Leon? What's the hell is wrong with you?" I asked.

"You're such a beautiful girl Claire...I still love you, Claire...You can't leave me!"

Right then I knew Leon was hella drunk; I desperately try to break his hold only for him to slam me into the nearby wall,"Let me go" I yell out; only for his grip to tighten,

I held back tears that threatened to fall; He gave me a deep kiss, violating my mouth with his tongue. In which I bite it; causing him to pull back.

One of his hand's moves towards my chest giving me a chance to hit him.

He fell back a few inches, and I ran for the door, He chased after and tackled me to the ground

"Tell me how badly you want me to fuck you. C'mon, Claire" Leon said.

"Please, please I'm begging you! Let me go" I said while desperately trying to get him off of me.

Leon pressed his mouth against my trembling lips.

"Leon, please..." I begged, Leon looked down at me.

He seized her pajamas pants and began to pull them down.

I protested, trying to tug them back into place.

Just then Wesker rushed in, Wesker didn't waste time throwing him aside, to help me up.

How or why Wesker was here didn't matter to me, "Leave!" Wesker demands.

"Who the hell are you!" Leon yelled while trying to tackle him, Wesker stepped out the way causing Leon to fall.

Leon picked himself up, Look at Wesker then back at me before turning to leave while shouting random nonsense.

I looked at Wesker while rubbing the bruise on my arm; I asked: "why...what ar...are you doing here?"

"I wanted to ask you something, but you had already left, You ok?" he responded "Umm...Yeah...Thank you" Wesker nods

"He's my ex; I don't know why he was here? He tried..." Before I could say anything else Wesker suddenly pulled me against his chest;

his powerful arms wrapped tightly around me.

I instinctively grasped at his shirt.

"You're safe now dear heart," Wesker growled deeply.

I felt like collapsing, sagged against his chest, my face buried deep in his shirt, leaving it damp.

After a long moment of standing in his embrace, I sniffed as quietly as I could and picking my head up

not wanting to appear weak.

Feeling drained, I walked over to the couch and sat down; Wesker sat down next to me, "What is it that you wanted to ask me?" I asked while lying my head on his shoulder

"We hold a Christmas party every year, Would you like to attend with me?" he asked

"I...Sure I'd love to." I replied. I looked at the broken door

"dear heart if you don't feel safe here, we could leave for the night." he said.

"Dear Heart?" I questioned while looking up at him, A small grin on his face.

I could feel my cheeks turn a bright pink shade, "Ummmm...Yeah...I'd like to leave here..." I told him, He nodded

"Why do you wearing sunglasses indoors?" I asked trying to brighten the mood "Because I can" he stated.


I found myself slowly coming awake, the first thing I realized was that I was comfortable, curled beneath thick blankets.

Opening my eyes, I glanced around the room "Why is it so bright?" I asked

"The sun is up," Wesker said; I faced the direction of his voice.

He was seated behind a large desk at the end of the room, Wesker bound his hands together on the desk, smirking at me.

There was a costly looking PC before him, and other various items,

I slowly got to my feet, slowly walking towards Wesker.

"Where am I?"

"My place" he responds

"Oh.," I said while nodding, Wesker stood up from his desk.

"I'm sorr-" I was cut off by Wesker

"Don't be, You have done nothing wrong" He simply states.

"It's 8 am; we should head out soon" He adds

"There are clothes for you on the dresser, you are free to take a shower." his hand gesturing toward the bathroom.

I realized that I was still wearing my pajamas, Grabbing the clothes I went into the bathroom to change.

The bathroom was quite large; the sink is made of Brazilian blue stone, the shower was large as well,

A hint of cinnamon and something else.

Putting the clothes down on the bathroom counter, I looked at of myself in the mirror.

I examined the bruises on my right arm and left leg, Both a dark purple "Bastard" I whispered while clenching my teeth.

'He did seem like himself..' I thought ..I can't reflect on this right now' I erased the remains of my thoughts.

Jumping into the shower; 10 minutes later I was out.

Taking a moment to look at the clothes, It was like the one she wore the other day but was a dark red, Plus

the pants replaced with a skirt.

I was never the type of girl to doll myself up, Mainly a T- shirt, Jeans, boots, and a leather vest or jacket

was more than enough.

Sighing, 'It's not like I have a choice right now' I tell myself.

I dressed before leaving out the bathroom door.


Wesker and I arrived, Wesker was heading towards his office until I stopped him;

He looked at me, and I froze like an idiot. A few seconds pass before I muster up a "thank you."

"No need to thank me, Now I have a lot of work to be done and so do you...we will talk later."

I gave a nodded before taking my leave.

I Headed into my office and sat at my desk.

Looking over the files Wesker hade given me,

'Leon wasn't like himself...he...god I need to stop thinking about this,

I need to get to work.'

I realized I started crying 'Damn Claire get a hold of yourself.'

Just then the door opened causing me look up; It was sherry.

"Claire, why are you crying?" She asked

I wiped my tears away "Sherry...I'm...I'm fine" I reassured her.

"If you're quiet you can stay while I work ok," I said smiling towards her.

Sherry put on a bright smile and sat down with her book.

(Tho Sherry wasn't entirely quiet like she agreed I didn't mind the distraction.)

I finished my work to see Sherry fast asleep.

I walked over to her giving a light shake to wake her up.

"Huh? Claire? Did I fall asleep?" Sherry asked in confusion

"Yeah, you did," I told her "Come on let's go," tell her.


We head down to the lobby to find Annette, Annette scolded

sherry for bothering me but assured her that it was ok.

Annette told sherry to wait while she pulled me to the side.

"Claire, Wesker said to wait for him," Anette informed me.

I nodded, Annette and sherry left, Sherry seemed upset that I didn't come with them.

While waiting for Wesker in the lobby, i realized I said I'd go with

Wesker to the 'company's Christmas party' but I was sposed to be spending it with Chris,

we'll I never said I'd spend it with Chris plus he would understand, right?

I guess I won't know til I tell him I guess.

"Dear Heart," A rich voice said, and that voice belonged to Wesker,

I stood up giving him smile "Blondie" I replied.

(Hay! If he was going to give me a nickname I didn't like I'll give him one in return!)

He gave me a devilish smirk and said "We should be on our way" His grin disappeared.

"I guess your driving me home," I said "Not exactly, It has come to my mind that it would be better

if you find an apartment closer to here since you're working here" He informed me

"For right now you will stay with me" he added, He Turned to leave, and I knew it was my cue to follow.

Wesker car was a sleek black BMW (Why am I not surprised?), I Entered the passenger seat.

Looking at the interior, it was a vibrant color of gray and was like any car.

I guess I could call Chris, I grabbed my phone from my pocket and dialed Chris's number.

After what seem like forever Chris finally picked up.

[Start of phone call]

"Hey sis," Chris said

"Hey Chris, I..I can't make it home for the holidays...I'm sorry something came up," I told him.

"But Clair..." He was cut off

"It's a Christmas party at my job, Ok? anyway...I got to go" I hung up on Chris before he could respond.

[End of phone call]

'It's not like I wanted to blow him off, Plus there is always next year..right?'

"Ms. Redfield, Would you like to go back to your apartment to grab your things?" Wesker asked eyeing me.

"Umm..Yeah, thanks again for...everything" I told him.
