Surface My Emotions

!Ada!
"I'm glad you guys could make it." I overheard Leon as he left to go greet Hunk, my assassin, and Barry. I wouldn't trust someone who was willing to kill you so easily before. People change, and old habits die hard. I have a feeling Hunk is still working for Wesker, I'll have to keep an eye on him. I felt the firm touch of a stranger's hand on my shoulder. I tilted my head to my left to see Chris looking at me as if he was reading me. I just gave him a confused expression as he opened his mouth to say something.
"I'm with you, I don't trust that guy as far as I can throw him. But I trust Barry. If Barry says he's cool, we should trust him." He whispered into my ear. He was reading my thoughts. I turned my head away and looked at Hunk near Leon, studying him. He has black short hair and it kind of just laid wherever it chose to. He was well built, probably better than Leon, if not the same. He has a smile on his face as he shook my lover's hand. His eyes showed experience and age, telling me he seen everything except a man eating his own face. I sighed internally as Chris spoke to me again.
"Well... maybe we could not trust him a little." Now I knew Chris Redfield was a mind reader.
"Barry!" Jill screamed like a little girl to her lost father. Barry was Jill's father, not her poor excuse for a thug father. I quickly disregarded what I was thinking about Jill and starting thinking about our current respective situation.
Hmmm... where would Wesker's "hideout" be if he's in Washington D.C. I began running past possible memory of any areas he held experiments or office in. I remember there being one in Washington D.C. I recalled a time when I saw a file left out on Wesker's desk... and it had Washington D.C. HQ written somewhere on there... and I tried to scan it but Wesker walked in on me. Damn... what was it.. I remember reading it... but I can't... oh... his HQ was below ground lvl and the entrance was disguised as a sewer entry... But there are thousands of sewer caps all over Washington D.C. I'm sure it's probably alot newer looking than your average old Sewer caps. We can start by looking for a non-rusted version of one.
!Wesker!
Only noise that made a sound in my office was the sound of bones breaking. The Ganados that reported to me that they failed to retrieve Chris and Jill, I had thrown the reporter accross the room, and he laid on the ground unconcious. If he was alive he didn't show it. I could feel my blood boiling... my new form itching to just come out and tear down everything in site... but I took a deep breath... and developed a new plan. Perhaps I can use friends against friends... won't that be interesting... This game is far from over... all they did was get back their queen piece.
!Ada!
"Not a half bad clue to go on." Barry complimented on how we should go about finding it. I was wondering why Leon chose to sit away from me, rather than next to me... but I quickly disregarded that concern. "So! let's all go in Hunk's SUV it's big enough to fit us all in." Barry stated as he took a swig of beer.
"Alright, it's almost night time... but I suggest if we are going up against Wesker. That we get some rest, probably not at any of our homes we should all stay in..." Before Chris could finish his suggestion Leon flipped up his lighter and caught it. Playing with it as he spoke.
"White house." Leon interrupted. I could tell Chris was about to suggest hotel... but Leon decided against that. But I was with Chris on this one... sorry Leon, but I don't trust the Government myself.
"I don't think so... I think we should stay in a hotel." Leon looked at me as if asking why. So I gave him my answer. "Listen as far as I already know... Jill and Chris said one of the Ganados after them was a cop. I'm sure some cops probably come in contact with someone that works int he White House if not someone else. I wouldn't trust anyone besides anyone in this room for now." I told him... but Leon being stubborn had to argue his point to.
"You can tell if they are Ganados or not, by the color of their eyes, you know this Ada.. come on." Leon bit back. I saw Leon prompt his foot onto the table, I sighed as I had to defend my point still, he was being to stubborn right now.. He has been ever since we got to Joe's.
"True, but are you going to examine everyone's eyes? I seem to recall a time Leon when..." Leon knew what I was getting at and he didn't seem to happy I was pointing that out.
"I told you I didn't mean to do that! Stop bringing it up, I feel bad enough as it is." That hurt... but White house is spelt T..R..O..U..B..L..E. It's just that it's pronounced differently. I didn't want to continue arguing over something we have already argued about... so I tried to drop it.
"Leon, I'm just saying that... someone could change at the last second and give out our location. Let's just go to a hotel." I was hoping he would just agree but instead Leon stood up leaving everyone dumbfounded and looking at him. He walked toward another room. All heads following Leon, Before he opened the door to the other room. He looked back straight at me and put out his finger and curled it telling me to come like I'm a dog or something. Something was wrong with Leon... and I needed to know what. I don't know anything that I or anyone else could have done that made him like this since the last time he was holding me.
I looked at everyone else as the dim light gave them all a golden glow and I just waved my hands like I was signaling give me a moment. I headed toward the door. And when I reached for the handle... I hesitated, and I don't know why. After mentally slapping myself I turn the knob. Opening it only to find that the room Leon went in was the Men's restroom. As I took one step in I felt Leon's hand on my arm guiding me in.
"I thought you were on my side?" I heard him ask. What is the big deal? It was just a suggestion on where we should stay the night. I found myself looking away from him at a wall... anything but his eyes. They weren't the same as they were a few hours ago.
"Why are you so persistent on going to the White House?" I asked him. "Do you still have las plagas in you? are you leading us all into a death trap?" I probably shouldn't have said that... but it all rolled off my tongue. Knowing that probably triggered an argument to a worse degree I tried to apologize. "I'm sorry I didn't..." only.. to be interrupted.
"What don't trust me? I have people in the White House I need to protect. It's my job." Is that all it was? If he wanted to go and make sure the President was fine I saw no problem in that. Or even letting him know the current respective situation.
"Well Leon, you can go let him know about what's going on, and go watch over him... while we find Wesker." Leon came closer putting his hands on both sides of my head prompted against the wall. Leaning his head in and looking into my eyes.
"If there is anyone here who is leading someone into a death trap. It's you." I was most definitely expecting him to say Hunk... and not finish the sentence with you. I guess... I didn't show him how much I care for him... Why would I do something like that? I see our relationship like Romeo and Juliet now... all going to end in tragedy.. no happy ending... Two families opposite sides... and we fall in the middle. I can feel the sting of tears wanting to come out. Instead I held them back, still not looking at leon... but my feet,.now instead.
"Leon please, Is there something wrong?" I asked looking back at him this time. I was searching his eyes for a sign of his troubles. He looked back and be and he suddenly looked very sad and sympathetic.
"Ada... I love you ok... but I haven't been completely honest with you." I looked at him very confused. It was him this time that looked away from me, hiding some sort of shame from me he obviously didn't want me to know.
"What is it?" I asked, not being able to take his silence much longer. I could tell he was contemplating on telling me or not. And I sure hope he tells me before he thought otherwise.
"Before you showed up Ada, I have been dating this girl named Ingrid Hunnigan... and I sort of just been unable to ignore my real feelings for you. And I'm not sure If I could just tell her that we are over. Although I really want to.." at that point my mind blocked out what he was saying as I took in what he was telling me. Was he telling me he can't be with me? after all this... No. I won't lose Leon to someone else... I grew a little angry.
"Leon... why didn't you tell me this sooner? like before I started falling for you more than I already was." before I could finish Leon interrupted me.
"I'm not leaving you Ada. I just confused really on what I should do." with that, I pulled Leon into a hug pressing my right cheek upon his and I pulled my head back looking at him.
"Well... then you tell me now, who do you really love?" I asked.
"You." his face showed he really ment it as he told me... Then leon tilted his head and I locked my lips with his.
Author's Note:
Well sorry its been a long time again. but I'm back again! from outer space!. Thanks for all the reviews guys it makes me just happy. I noticed something wrong with my AIM on my profile I had it set to hotmail when its really XxIntotheRainxX on AIM not MSN. Send me a aim message sometime if you'd like. By the way. I know this chapter seemed a bit gloomy but I was just trying to strengthen their relationship but I think it came out a little corny? Let me know if you think its a bit corny and i'll fix it. I thought introducing hunnigan as a problem might have been rather sudden. But It's no real big deal I thought. I mean Leon did ask her out on RE4 ending. . well later! and Ji Hyun. 감사,
