Claire got into her office and threw her bag on the floor. She sat down and threw her head on her desk and hit her desk over and over. There was a knock at the door.

"Come in" Claire grumbled. Ingrid stepped into the room, smirking devilishly as she closed the door behind her.

"Someone looks happy" Ingrid said.

"Ha-Ha." said Claire mockingly and looking up. "Why didn't you tell me he was Leon's dad!!" shouted Claire"cause now thanks to my not so great informer, I have a date with my boyfriend's parents! Woop-di-doo!!" she shouted mockingly spinning around in her swivel chair then throwing her head back onto her desk.

Ingrid couldn't help but to laugh at Claire.

"Oh don't be such a baby, its not that bad, they'll probably just smother you in love and show you embarrassing baby pictures of lil' Leon" Ingrid said bashing her eyelashes at Claire then laughing.

"Ingrid you are a horrible person" muttered Claire. Ingrid smiled and opened the door.

"I know," she said in a singsong voice skipping out of the room. Claire watched her leave then hut her head down on her desk again

"Ugh! Why me" he muttered to herself.

~Meanwhile~

Leon leaned on the black Mitsubishi Montero in front of Ashley's college. It would be 5 minutes until Ashley came out of school and he was here early just like the president told him to be.

His cell phone began to vibrate in his pocket

"I wonder if it's Claire," he told himself as he took out his sleek (Black) Blackberry and looked at his caller ID.

"Dad" Leon rolled his eyes.

'Oh just perfect' he said. His dad was calling him now, he could just imagine why. He opened up his phone and answered

"Leon Scott Kennedy speaking" he said

"Now then is that always to answer to your father, what ever happened to 'hey dad what's up!?'" said Scott to his son.

"Oh! Dad hey, it's been a while since we've talked" said Leon with a smile as he out his foot up on the car door.

"Yes it has son, I just wanted to ask you, have you gotten a girlfriend yet?" Scott asked knowing the answer. Leon hesitated not knowing if he should tell him yet, but maybe it would've been better if he kept it a secret for now and let them know later on as a surprise when she came back, then they could both visit his parents together. Leon didn't have to worry about visiting Claire's relatives; he did that on a daily basis anyway.

"Uhhh . . . not that I know off" he lied. His father nodded

"Mhhmm…." He couldn't believe what his son was trying to pull off right now. Not introduce him to such a beautiful new girlfriend. Tsk tsk, he was really going to get it tonight.

"Anything else?" Leon asked his dad. He didn't mean to be rude but after he picked up Ashley he had to hurry over to sherry's school and pick her up too.

"Now is that anyway to speak to your father" Scott said with a laugh. Leon chucked lightly

"Sorry dad. How about 'daddy I have a work to do right now, you're the best for understanding my feelings daddy. I love you!'" he said in the childish voice as if he was a cute 8-year-old. Scott laughed

"I'm sorry for disturbing you son; I will leave you au revoir, "his dad said with a laugh. Leon let out a quick chuckle as he hung up. His dad was such a card. Just as he looked up the bell had rung and college kids we're pouring out of the school. He stood there and waited for Ashley to come out but by the time people were coming out little by little, he still didn't see Ashley. He began to look around worriedly

"Ashley?" he asked loudly. A few girl turned there heads but looked back, noticing it wasn't them being called. Leon was starting to get nervous thinking that something might have happened to Ashley. He looked around frantically; there was a suddenly light tap on his shoulder. He grabbed the person's hand and spun around then sighed in relief when he saw it was only Ashley who was smiling like a moron.

"God, don't do that!" he said loudly "I thought something really happened to you"

Ashley let out a light laugh as Leon opened the passenger seat door for her

"Oh, don't cry about it" she said with a smile as she stepped into the door. Leon closed the door and went to the driver's seat and started the car.

"But it still wasn't funny" he said to her. Ashley stuck out her tongue playfully.

"Was too" she said with a smile as she took out her sidekick and texted someone. Leon shook his head as he began to drive over to sherry's school. Hopefully she wouldn't do the same thing.

~Meanwhile~

Claire sat at her desk looking at a few e-mails on the computer. Her work was done now and she had nothing to do. She put down her pen and began to go towards her door to go see if Hunnigan was done with her work. Just as she was at the door a beep came from the computer indicating that she had a new e-mail. She turned quietly and checked her electronic mail to see what new mail had just arrived at the last minute. She opened up her inbox and looked at the sender.

The sender was unknown.

Claire carefully positioned the cursor on the e-mail and opened it. She took a seat and began to read out loud to herself.

Dear

My friend warned you and you ignored his warning, which was a very bad choice on your part "Red". By the way, Red is your new nickname. Learn to live with it.

Sincerely you horrid pal
Jack Spider
Claire threw away the e-mail angrily. She didn't like her nickname and she sure as hell did not care what Wesker or this "spider" guy had to say.
Whatever they wanted to say was nothing to her.
Right now she was living by her own rules and they were, sure as hell, not involved.

~Meanwhile~

"Sherry lets go!!" shouted Leon as he waited in the living room for sherry to get her things.
Claire told him to keep sherry at his apartment for now because god knew what Chris and Jill would be up to while she wasn't around, she loved them both but she did not trust them at all, and neither did he.

Leon looked at his watch and rolled his eyes
"Sherry common!!" he pleaded already at a loss for patience. No matter what age, women were always taking so long to do things even if it was a quick five-minute thing.

Leon tapped his foot, very impatient now. He strode his way up the stairs into sherry's room where she was saying goodbye to her stuffed animals. Sheesh, it was only going to be for a while not an eternity.
"Lets go," she said as he grabbed sherry and threw her over his shoulder
"Why does everyone always do that!!!!" Sherry complained as she dangled over Leon's shoulder like a doll.
Leon grabbed her bag and took her towards the door

"We're leaving Chris!!!" Leon shouted from the door.

"Uh yeah sure!!" Chris shouted looking down the stairs, Leon's eyes widened when he noticed a trace of lipstick around Chris's mouth. He quickly rushed out the door sherry still over his shoulder.

"See ya!" she shouted to Chris as he closed the door and put sherry down. He ushered her into the car and placed her bags in the trunk then got into the drivers seat.

"Well then lets get going" Leon said as he pulled out of the dreaded parking lot of the house that was soon to be contaminated by Chris Redfield's Aid's, Claire seriously need a sign that said bio-hazard when you lived in a house with those two.

( lol its an inside joke, me and my RL friends keep fooling around about it well ignore me I'm just a side note :D)

Leon drove off with sherry to his apartment
"Is it boring in your apartment??" asked sherry looking over at him
Leon shrugged
"I don't know, I just usually sit around and stuff," he said
"you can even play with Cleo if you want" he said with a smile. Sherry threw up her arms
"." she said plainly. Leon laughed and ruffled her hair and sherry laughed.
"Don't worry you'll have fun" he said with a laugh as they drove to his apartment.

~Meanwhile~

Claire was at Hunnigan's apartment where she was currently" rooming" for the next three months. Ingrid had insisted that she'd stay at her house, first of all it would relieve tension from Leon and secondly, it was free and better than any hotel room, well that was she said.

It was a nice apartment though, kind of looked like a house more than an apartment. She walked out into the hall putting on her diamond earrings when she heard the phone.

"Coming!!" she said as she ran over to the phone. She looked at the caller ID but it was unknown

"Hello??" She answered in a sweet tone.

"CLAIRE!!" came the shrill of a twelve year old girl. Claire held the phone away from her as far as possible cause if she held it any closer she would probably go deaf,

"it's good to talk to you too Sherry" she said as she put the phone near her ear again, cleaning out her ears so she could hear better.

"I know it's always good to talk to me" she said in an almost conceded but joking tone. Claire laughed a little and smiled

"I didn't know you were that conceded Sherry" she said with a small laugh.

"Well without you here who's gunna correct my mistakes" she said cheerfully. Claire crossed her arms over her chest and thought

"You have a point there, but that's not gunna work I gotta keep my butt here in New York to finish my job" she said with a small laugh. Sherry groaned

"That sucks!!" she said "well anywho, I wasn't the one who called you in the first place, here you go!" she said handing the phone over to someone else. It sounded like that person was busy so Claire began to put on a little bit of make up to get ready to see le-

Her thoughts were cut short when someone began to speak

"Hello?" he asked. Claire's heart filled with joy when she heard the voice, That voice.

"Leon!" she said happily with anticipation. She missed him so much and hearing his voice just comforted her even more. She suddenly hear some pots and pans clatter and then a loud "ow"

"What the hell are you doing?" Claire asked curiously.

"uh . . . um . . . . Trying to cook" said Leon embarrassedly rubbing the bump that had now formed on the back of his head after sherry caused a bunch of pans to fall on him. Claire couldn't help but laugh loudly. Ingrid came into the room

"What's so funny??" Ingrid asked setting down a few papers she had been working on. Claire wiped tears from her eyes still laughing, she calmed down a bit and Ingrid tilted her head slightly, in question.

"Leon's trying to cook" said Claire with a chuckle. Ingrid also laughed loudly and Claire broke out in laughter along with her, Leon on the other hand was blushing like made, completely embarrassed as the two women laughed at him.

"Hey at least I'm trying!!" said Leon into the phone. Claire wiped the tears from her eyes once again letting out a final laugh

"I'm sorry it's just that well you never cooked before . . . so why now?" Claire asked curiously. Leon sighed and took out a knife which made Sherry run out of the kitchen screaming. Claire raised a curious eyebrow wondering why sherry had done that

"Well your not here to do it so I thought I would . . ." he trailed off and Claire cracked a smile

"Aww Leon, you know what, I'll make it up to you when I come back, I promise" Claire sad with a smile. Leon laughed a little and smiled also as he began to cut up a few carrots.

"I love you" said Leon sweetly in a very romantic tone. Claire sighed dreamily; she loved it when he said that. (A/N: CORNY BEYOND CORNY!!!! XD)

"I love you t-" she was cut off when she looked at the clock and her eyes widened, she was late for dinner with Leon's parents!! Oh god, every one knew first impressions always counted and being late for dinner when your boyfriend's parents invited you over was not a good thing

"Crap!! I got to go, I love you too okay, kisses" she blew a kiss into the phone.

"Huh? Wait wh-!!" before Leon could finish the line went dead. Leon sighed and wondered what she was up to, while Sherry was peeking through the kitchen door. Leon rolled his eyes over to her slowly watching her tip-toe into the room and threw down the knife so it got stuck in the cutting board. Sherry yelped and ran out of the kitchen. Leon chuckled and admired himself for being able to scare her so easily, it was just too fun.

~Meanwhile~ (again DX)

Claire pulled up in front of the Kennedy residence. Leon's old house when he was a baby. She took a deep breath and got to the front door and knocked.

"SHE'S HERE!!!" squealed a voice of what seemed to be Leon's mother. The door swung open revealing a tall skinny woman with glasses and beautiful pure red/brown hair in a long braid. She jumped on Claire and took her into a tight hug

"So this is the beautiful girl my husband has told me about? OH YOU ARE DARLING!!" squealed her mother as she hugged Claire even tighter

"I-It's nice to meet you too Mrs. Kennedy" said Claire wincing slightly and patting her back. Leon's mom pulled back and looked at her them smiled widely

"Come inside!! Don't stay out here, common I made lasagna!!!!" squealed Leon's mom pushing Claire in then looking outside and closing the door with a big sinister smile

'I finally meet the girl my son is dating. . .what fun muhahahahaha ' she thought sinisterly.
