Yay! A nice little fluff-fic about Rebecca and Billy. Basically, it takes place in the final battle between the Queen and them. I'm a R/B fan, if you haven't already guessed. :P I don't own RE0.

"Rebecca! Open the windows, I'll distract the Queen!"

"Right! Billy.. Be careful.."

Billy nodded and fired a shotgun round right into the Queen's face. He had to keep this..thing away from Rebecca. He had to keep her safe while she opened the windows. If the Queen attacked her, there would be no way out of here. He tried not to think of what would happen if one of them should die, and..No! He couldn't think about that now. He had to concentrate; the Queen was a formidable foe.

Rebecca, who had already opened two of the cranks, was trying not to let her feelings for Billy get in the way. If she didn't open these windows, they would both be toast. She turned the last crank. "Billy! Hurry! Out of the way!"

The windows opened, and the Queen thrashed under the sunlight. Rebecca spotted a magnum under a box. She grabbed it. "Billy! Catch!"

Billy looked toward Rebecca. Just in time, he caught the weapon. "Feast on this, Queenie!" He yelled, and fired. The Queen fell to the ground. "Rebecca! Hurry! Lets get out of here!"

They ran from the mansion just in time to see its final moment. With a thundering crash, it fell to rubble. Billy fell to the ground, and Rebecca sat down next to him. "I'm so glad..its all over now..."

"I wouldn't say that just yet. This mansion," Billy gestured toward the flaming rubble. "Maybe. Umbrella? Definitely not."

Rebecca sighed. "Unfortunately, I think youre right. I wish this would all end. Umbrella, the zombies- everything!"

"Even us?" Billy took Rebecca's hand.

" No... I mean, Billy.."

"Its alright. I know what you mean." Billy laid back in the grass. It was a surprisingly nice day, considering what they had just been through. Billy removed his military tag and fastened it around Rebecca's neck. "I want you to have this- to remember me by."

"What do you mean?"

" I was sentenced to death. You're a S.T.A.R.S member. A police officer. You'll have to bring me in"

"Billy! That's crazy! I would never, I-"

"You'd lose your job!"

"I don't care! I'd rather be- I don't know. But Billy, I wont let them kill you. I'll, I don't know, but you are not going to die!"

" Rebecca.. I ... Really?" Billy was surprised. She was willing to sacrifice her job? For him?

Rebecca lay down next to Billy and snuggled up to him. She rested her head against his chest and closed her eyes. "I love you, Billy. At first I didn't trust you, you know, on the train? But now.. Youre the only person I feel safe with."

"I love you too." Billy replied, and kissed her forehead.

In the woods.

Jill, Barry, Wesker, Enrico and Chris were searching for Rebecca. They were picking up a signal from her radio, and someone else's. They didn't know who it could be, but they had to find Rebecca nonetheless. They were at the edge of the forest, just beyond where Billy and Rebecca lay resting. Jill had said that she heard voices over there, so the team trudged that way. They emerged form the forest to find the newest S.T.A.R.S recruit, Rebecca Chambers, cuddled up with convicted felon, Billy Coen.

"Rebecca! What on earth do you think your doing!?!" Jill rushed over to Rebecca.

"Well was resting, but you woke me up!"

"I mean with him!"

"Billy? Oooohhhh..." Rebecca remembered Billy's infamy, and then realized that there were five fully-armed S.T.A.R.S members right in front of her. She blushed. "Um, you see.."

" I want an explanation, NOW! What the hell are you doing? Trying to get fired? Trying to get your self killed? He's a murderer, Rebecca. He killed 23 people! And here you are all cozy with him! I'm absolutely disgusted with this behavior! You were such a promising little girl, too!" Wesker barked.

That set Rebecca off. "How dare you try to tell me what to do! Did you survive a zombie-infested mansion with him? Did you get your but saved, at least five times, by him? If he really were the murderous jerk you seem to think he is, the couldn't he just as easily left me to die when that huge centipede caught me? Or when I was dangling from the edge of a hole in the ground? No! So back off, shut up, and DON'T CALL ME LITTLE GIRL!!!!"

There was a long, awkward silence. Jill broke it. "So, he saved you? More than once? But-"

Chris was just staring. He looked from the red-faced Rebecca (which he thought was pretty funny, actually), to the stunned Wesker, to Jill, who was just thinking.

"I'm terribly sorry to break up you and your boyfriend here, Rebecca, but in afraid I'm going to have to shoot him. I'm sorry." Wesker pulled out his gun. "Say goodbye."

"No! Wesker, don't! Please!" Rebecca stepped in front of Billy. "Wesker, Put the gun down!"

"I'm sorry Rebecca, but if you don't move, I'll have to shoot you too." Wesker was unnaturally calm.

"Wesker! How could you.? You would shoot Rebecca, simply to get the satisfaction of capturing Mr. Coen?" Jill was shocked. In all the years that she had known Wesker, he had never done anything this rash.

"Rebecca, it's ok, I can see it in his eyes- he wont shoot if your in front of me. But that doesn't matter. Stay out of this! I don't want you to get hurt!" Billy whispered in Rebecca's ear.

"I'm not going to let him kill you, Billy." Her voice rose. "Captain Wesker, I'm sorry I disobeyed your wishes. I was out of line."

"There's a good girl. Step aside now, so I can cuff this jerk." Wesker raised his gun. His finger inched toward the trigger. Rebecca had to time this just right. If she messed up..
Wesker yelled in surprise after Rebecca kicked the gun out of his hand.

"Captain Wesker, you can take that as my official notice of resignation. I am hereby quitting the Raccoon City Police Force." She ripped of her badge and threw it at Wesker.

"You- you cant do that! I'll- I'll - Ugh! Whatever! We wont shoot the convict, yet, or -"

"Or put him in handcuffs, or threaten him in any way. Agreed?" Rebecca glanced at Billy, who had a look of pure pride on his face.

"Agreed.." Wesker said grudgingly. Rebecca Beamed at him, and ran into Billy's arms.

"See? I told you I wouldn't let them kill you! I love you too much." Rebecca smiled up at him, and he kissed her, making her blush.

" I love you too!" He kissed her again, and they both sat down, leaning against a tree. "Hey, nice work back there! How did you learn to kick like that?"

Rebecca giggled. "I took martial arts last year."

"Oh. Very nice." Billy smiled at her.

"You know, they actually do make kind of a cute couple. Look how he holds her, does he look like a ravenous murder-machine?" Jill asked Wesker.

" Well, if you account for the facts.. One, shes still a teenager, two, he's a criminal, and three, I don't like him!" Wesker was really angry at having to agree to not kill the scumball. Luring in an innocent girl like that! He was a sicko, that's what!

"Well, it's her choice. And I didn't realize that you not liking him was even a factoe she should consider. They've been through a lot together, and I can see her side of it. Yes, she is being a little naïve, but, well, she'll learn, eventually." Jill remarked sagely.

"What in hell are you talking about?!? Hes an ex-murderer!!!! He was sentenced to death because he did something so horrible! And you think we should just let her get over it? Are you absolutely insane? We have to show her the right way, that's what we out to do I think-"

"Oh, look! They're sleeping. Isnt it cute? Awwww.." Jill pointed to where Rebecca and Billy were and smiled.

"You didn't hear a word I just said, did you?" Wesker said pretending to be hurt. "Nobody ever listens to me."

Over by the tree, Billy and Rebecca were, indeed, sleeping peacefully. They figured they deserved a proper rest, after all they had been through..
