Even God's Need A Lifelong Partner

Chapter Seven

„Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you?" – Can't Help Falling In Love With You – Elvis Presley

Early AM's, March 11, Tricell Station

Before leaving his office, Wesker took a look on the cameras. He saw how Chris was suffering. Even the look at that, was like a pain in his chest. He never ever thought he could feel like this. For someone. To have feelings even. He thought those things got left out of him. But it looks like, those things are in him as well. And it shows in that also, that he took off his damn sunglasses. What he never took off, without purpose for himself. Things need to have some changes, if he want the things to go a little bit faster. The clock is always running and never stops. Just like time. It is never right, but never stops. And never shows, the right time.

After thinking about everything through, like twice, Wesker finally closed his office doors, and stepped outside to the corridor. The early AM's are magical, and wonderful. Always good for some honest hours. Where you can show your real self to the person you… love? Oh damn right…

But Wesker was not really alone on this corridor.

Chris got himself up together, and his courage, to step outside of his room. He closed his door, then started to go in a direction. To left, to right, who cares? He just walked, until, he finally saw something. Likely to say, someone.

„Sometimes I can not forget that you can not sleep." Chris sighed, as he stopped, when he saw Wesker.

He was really surprised when he got his chance to take a longer look at Wesker. Even thought it was dark, a small light was on, showing the ways in the corridor. With this little help, Chris was able to see the change. What surprised him. Wesker, without his sunglasses.

„Anything unsual to keep a long eye contact, Christopher?" Wesker asked.

How long was that…

They both thought. This name calling, like taking back them in time for like 10 years. When everything was fine. Supposed to be fine. Looked fine. But is it fine now? The answer is yet to be found.

„Never ever thought we could even say those words." Chris answered.

Like, something stopped for a minute in him. Like he would change everything he thought but no. He started to feel the connection to Wesker a lot stronger and deeper. And more trustful. Like, he really starts to trust in him. Not even that apology would be needed, but they had it.

„Everything has come to an end. And since we are the only ones here yet, I need to show my true face to you." Wesker said.

The need? Like, for what?

Chris thoughts kept running around in circles in his head. Trying to get the meaning of those words what Wesker has said to him. Like he thought, that his wildest dreams would come true. But he should not think about those. Because it is not that safe yet.

„Like for what, Wesker?" Chris asked, then after a deep sigh, he continued. „I beilive in you. You do not have to show me or prove me anything at all."

Wesker actually felt a big gasp comming out of his mouth, but he stopped it. He could not even believe his ears. What he has just heard. He had to get himself together, he could not act so easy to get now. But these words literally meant everything for him.

„I just feel equal by this. By doing this. Even better. To show that I am not hiding anything from you." Wesker said. „Back to another topic. Why can not you can sleep?"

Damn, it could have been the perfect time to turn the conversation to something more, and telling everything about the feelings! Chris thought. But not this time. It is still actually early, to be honest. To talk about these damn bad and right feelings what he feels.

He felt a little happines growing inside him, when Wesker asked about his sleep. Like… He cares about him. And it made Chris more happier each time he thinks about it. Like, for the first time, he found someone, who cares about him. Other besides those, who he thought, and known as his friends.

„I do not know…" Chris sighed. „Nightmares of the past 10 years, maybe?"

Wesker, kind of knew, that this, was a big damn lie. He even tried to hide his smirk but no, he wore his poker face, and tried to show Chris some kind of empathy. Even thought, Wesker really cared about Chris problem. The lack of sleep can hurt a lot sometimes.

Wesker just knew this. Back in his years, when he was that „double agent" kind of thing. Working for both S.T.A.R.S and Umbrella. There were days when he could not even think of sleeping. Because of all the damn running around in circles, in Raccoon City. But what was all that worth of, to be honest? Nothing…

Nothing at all. Nothing for the world, for everyone, for even himself. All what he was thinking about that, the ruined world and the ruined chances. What Wesker knew, he could never get back. And would never get that real apology.

„It was much easier for me to sleep by the pills, back in time. But that is not the thing I want you to do. Easy to get addicted, but hard to get off, trust me." Wesker said.

Chris got a little confused. He kind of saw the man who hurt him for the past years. And not believing in his words.

„Like you care, Wesker. You act like that." Chris sighed, then he continued. „If you would have cared, none of these things would have actually happen. And you know this as well, right?"

Everything back to as it was before. Wesker thought he was already in the good finnish line but as he saw it is not that time right now. Only a few things he got, to pull out from his back, to get to the point where he wants to be.

„Let me be honest then, Christopher." Wesker sighed. „I do, care. Care about you."

A/N: I can have all the excuses in the world for taking everything so long, but I will not do that. Instead I just stay quiet and leave a cliffhanger, again. Hehe.

Happy 7 year in me being in the Weskerfield fandom! Enjoy this chapter so well!
