Chapter Two - Getting To Know Someone New
XxX
"Well?" He insisted again.
"Um… I guess that we could… try." I sighed and took a quick breath. "But there is no promises you understand that, Dr. Wesker."
"I understand clearly. But… I'm sure that you will be able to do the task I ask of you." He replied with a normal tone of voice. I was wonder how he could keep his cool so well.
"Alex. Alex?" I said noticing she was still looking at Steve with a blank look. "Alex!"
"Y-yes May?" She replied as if I woke her from a daydream.
"Nothing…"
"Alright then. So when do you want to do this Dr. Wesker?" She asked.
"Please we can call each other by are first names alright. You can call me Wesker, or Albert for that fact please." He insisted with a grin.
"You can call me Alex."
"May please." I replied.
"Alright then Alex, May, how about we get this show on the road as fast as we can. I have a few things in store for Mr. Burnside."
"Well then please excuse me so I may grab the virus needed." Alex said starting to walk back to are office room.
"Would you like me to come a long?" I asked.
"No, I should be fine May." She gave me a flash of a smile and walked out the door. I sighed and started to feel a bit nerves being alone with him. When I'm nerves, trust me I'm not my self at all. I gazed down at the floor and started to mess around with my light blue neck choker. That I have wore it for most of my life, my mother gave it to me for my 12th birthday ,and she never made it to my 13th.
"Are you nerves to be around me or something?" I heard him ask.
"N-no not at all." I lied. Plus I was really a bad liar to start off with. He must have been able to tell right away.
"There is nothing to be nerves about. Truly."
"That's not what I've been told." I whispered under my breath.
"You know that I can hear that." My head shot up quick and I looked at him with a fake smile. I knew that he could see right through it.
"People may have told you things about me. Most are true… but there are a few things that aren't. I do have a heart." He said really meaning it. I could tell by the tone of voice he was using.
"Well… I will keep that in mind next time." I heard the melt door open quickly turning to see Alex with a smile.
"Got it." She said walking over to us and about to hand it over to Wesker.
"No, Alex please you may do the honors." He replied to her with hush tone. His tone sounded almost like a angel. I could swear that I was dazed looking at him and listen to words that replayed over and over in my head.
"May?" Alex's voice snapped me back to reality.
"Y-yes."
"Would you like to?"
"No, Alex go ahead as Wesker suggested." I smiled at her and then couldn't believe that I thought about Wesker like that. Oh god what the hell was I doing to my self! I placed my right hand gently on my head and watched Alex gently turn Steve's arm. Giving her a good view of his inside arm. Rubbing the his cold skin to try and get any bit of heat to make the needle easier to insert into his arm. She carefully stabbed the needle into his arm and pushed down, to allow the liquid to be injected into his body. Soon she removed the needle and took a few steps back.
"How long with this take to get the injection working? If it was to work." Wesker asked quickly gazing at the both of us.
"It all depends on the person, or animal. Plus how long there heart hasn't been working. It could be hours and maybe even days. The cells need to be reactivated and that takes time to do so." I answered him.
"Well then we can wait. I guess that I will be seeing you two tomorrow then?"
"W-wait what time is it?" I asked looking down at my wrist to see I didn't have my watch. I must have looked like such a dumbass.
"Its 4:27 dear, you get off work around 4:30 correct?"
"Yeah, we do." I spoke slowly questioning how in the world he knew that.
"Well then here is my number if the two of you ever need anything just call." He grinned and handed the paper over to Alex she quickly returned the grin and expected the paper.
"See you tomorrow then Wesker."
Later That Day…
Alex and I were at the classic bar, doing the same thing that most people do when they get a promotion or something great happens. But for some reason I couldn't get my mind off how, one Wesker knew almost everything about us, or two how he was questionable about bring Steve back.
"May, would you please just have fun for a bit?"
"I wish I could… how do you think Wesker knew about us, like he did?" I asked her.
"Ok you say one more thing about that guy and I'm going to think that you have a little crush on him." She said with a evil smirk.
"Alex, please why in the world would I like… him." I spoke thinking about it, I mean what wasn't there not to like about him? God I need to stop thinking about him like that.
"Because… ever since Mike broke up with you, I've notice that you haven't been your self."
"Mike… was just a guy I was ready to spend the rest of my life with… and then…" I stopped and just sighed. I glazed up at Alex and she tired to smile, I knew it was fade through. We can't really hide anything from each other.
"So… how about we forget about men and have a little fun. Alright?" If there was something Alex knew it was how to cheer me up.
"Fine… I guess so." I smiled at her and took a slip of my drink. "Anyway I noticed that you were looking at that Steve Burnside subject pretty well." Alex soon let out a cough and almost spit out some of her drink.
"Excuse me?!" She cried out.
"What, I'm just saying what I saw."
"No. I was checking to see what kind of condition he was in is all." She said defending her self.
"Alright then if you call staring at a guy with a dead look on your face for more than 2 minutes is checking his condition. Then next time we watch Harry Potter I will see you checking Draco's condition too." I smirked at her.
"Ha ha so funny May, I almost forgot to laugh."
"But you didn't."
"Oh I will get you for this." She said playing with me.
"I'd like to see you try."
Later…
I was starting to feel my vision be a little funny. My words were starting to slide into one another.
"May, we gotta get home. You should call…" Alex's words were cut off at that second by me.
"No way in hell, I'm not calling him. I maybe drunk but I won't call him." Alex shot a glare at me.
"Call now… you can't drive I can't drive. Now call." I sighed knowing that she was right… I just didn't want to call him. Why him out of everyone in the world… why him. I pulled out my phone and dialed his number.
"Wesker…"
"Yes? May why are you calling me this late?" He didn't sound angry at all not even tired. I wonder what was up with that. His tone was just normal.
"Well um… this is just a little funny to ask you but is there any chance you are coming out tonight?" I was trying to sound as normal humanly possible but I know that I was sounding funny. Next thing I knew the phone was removed from my hand in a second. I knew just who took it from me. Alex…
"Hello Wesker?" She said her words being pulled together to the point of which you could barely even understand her. "Well you see May, and I were out and now we are a little drunk. Now we would have called someone else to get us. But we don't know anyone. So I'm asking you if you could come and pick us up?" I mouth dropped open on how easy she said that. Like it wasn't any problem at all for her to ask someone we just met today for a ride home? It just didn't seem that easy. "Alright then. We will see you soon." She closed my phone quickly and handed to me with a smile. "There all better."
"B-but weren't you… just feeling a little funny about asking a guy we just met for a ride home?"
"Nope!"
"I-I would have been, hell I was feeling funny about asking him." I put my head down on the table and sighed.
"May the thing is, I don't like the guy. You do." I quickly picked my head up and glared at her.
"I do not!" I snapped quickly at her.
"Yeah I'm sure." With that she got up and brushed her smooth black pants off. With a quick smile at me and started on her way out of the bar. I got up and quickly followed right behind her. I second that we got out of the bar Wesker can right around the corner. I swear something just isn't right about this guy.
"Need a ride." He said as he gently can to a stop on the side of the street.
"Yes please." Alex said getting in the car.
"Thanks Wesker…" I mumbled getting in the car behind Alex.
"No problem May."
At Home…
"Thank you again Wesker. I'm sure that this won't happen again." I said helping Alex out of the car as she was leaning on the side of me. Its wasn't that comfortable but I could deal with it for a bit longer.
"Its not a problem." He replied. I didn't really want to have a conversation right now so I turned around allowing Alex to lean on me more than ever. I heard Wesker's car take off. Thank god I wasn't in mood to deal with him until tomorrow.
"Come on Alex lets get some sleep."
