Emergency.

It was taking so long for Claire to make her car work because of the cold weather that Leon asked her to drive his instead. She was driving for over fifteen minutes when Leon's car stopped in the middle of the road. Leon was lying in the backseat and Claire looked at him seeking for some answer or solution, since the car was his. But Leon seemed to be asleep and trembling with cold.

Claire put her hands on her head and thought ' What do I do now? He needs urgent care. ' Claire took her cellphone and called Mariane, asking her to call someone urgently. Claire left the car and looked at the engine. She realized that she understood about mechanic the same she did about men, just nothing.

Trying to escape the cold wind, she entered the car again, but this time in the backseat. She took the thermometer and put it in Leon's mouth. Once the thermometer beeped, claire checked the temperature and she got relieved to realize that he was still at 38,3 ° celsius.

Even tough, because of the pain and cold, the guy started to rave.

"Take care."

"Shhhh. Calm down, Leon. We're safe."

"Who are you? Helena, Claire , Ada?" Leon reached to Claire's face, trying to see her. "Claire narrowed her eyes before Leon continued. "Claire, is that you, Claire?"

Claire knew that she needed to take him away from there, but she did not know what she would do.

"Leon, your car is dead. How do I make it work?"

"Claire, I'm cold."

Claire realized that he could not help her.

"Leon, you hear me?"

"I do Claire, but I'm cold."

"Leon, you have a fever. It didn't go down after the medicine, but it is stabilized. You can not overheat."

"Hug me, Claire." Claire opened her eyes widely "Lie here with me, please. Warm me up a little."

"Leon, You can't..."

"Please, Claire. I am very cold." - he said shaking.

With no other choice, Claire got herself between Leon's legs, hugging him and putting her head on his chest. Leon's scent reached her nose soon.

At that moment Claire closed her eyes and Havardville came to her mind. After the incident at Havardville airport, about 8 years ago, Claire and Leon got a bit beyond the friendship boundaries.

After refusing to ride the helicopter with Leon, Claire didn't think she would see him so soon. The following day, Claire was shopping when Leon ran into her in the fair. He was buying some souvenirs to take home.

Leon really insisted with Claire to have dinner with him that evening, which would be his last one there. As aunt Chawla would be one more day with Rani, she eventually accepted the invitation.

The beginning of dining went out very nice and the friendly atmosphere prevailed. But after a few glasses of wine, Leon started with his famous seductive looks and jokes.

Claire, who generally had no patience with the him, guided by the wine this time, got into that seduction game.

She was not drunk , the wine had only got her into the fun stage. She knew everything she was doing and suddenly she found herself flirting with Leon. Her true intent was just having fun, laughing and making his friend laugh. She had no intention of coming to his bed.

When they got into his car after leaving the restaurant, Leon drove and stopped in front of his hotel and before Claire questioned something, he asked if he could take her to his room, Claire realized that the game had gone too far and she tried to regain herself and change the subject.

But the damage had already been done, Leon's eyes were burning in desire and he looked at her as if she was mentally undressed. Claire tried to smiled, she frowned and said nothing. Suddenly Leon got closer and kissed her.

Claire kissed him back with her eyes open, without focusing on the kiss, just trying to recover her reason and think of a way to get out of there. But when Leon went down with his lips to her neck and pulled her by her waist, she only managed to say:

"Ok. Let's go to your room."

Claire woke up the next morning very early, praying not to find Leon. Luckily he was still sleeping. Claire left the room leaving only a note behind: ' Thanks for the fun and have a safe trip . See you around, buddy."

That scent took her back to that night. Claire had taken too long to see Leon again and she decided to ignore what happened whenever she spoke with him by the phone after that. She struggled to keep their dialogue always friendly.

All these years Claire had little time to think about what happened. She was always too busy with Terra-save. And somehow she never believed that she and Leon could have some sort of involvement. Claire didn't like his seductive way much and she knew that he felt something for that spy.

She was not the kind of woman who goes to bed with any guy, Leon really had something special, but she decided not to think about it. So move on was the best choice.

Claire interrupted her thoughts when she heard the sound of a car approaching. She tried to let Leon to get out of the car .

"Don't leave me, Claire. Your embrace was so good, stay with me." Claire swallowed hard. She knew she should not allow those words and memories to mess with her emotions .

"I'll be right back, Leon." She left and ignored him begging her to stay there.

Luckly a truck stopped behind his car and she soon realized it was mr. the mrs. Colins. Leon was safe.

Claire hung up the phone looking at the hall thoughtful. During those last two days she felt that she had become responsible for someone she would never expect.

Due to a deep cut on his thigh , Leon began to develop systemic inflammatory response syndrome, getting to the hospital fast was of major importance to Leon's life.

After forty-eight hours of a lot of medication, including antibiotics, Leon's exams already showed great improvement.

According to the doctor, Leon would probably be discharged in two days, but he would need to rest for at least ten days and his medication needed to be taken with rigor .

Claire knew that Leon was a grown, responsible and autonomous man. But since he was a man, Claire also knew that he wouldn't take care of himself the way he should.

Looking at that mirrored floor and seeing nurses who passed on all sides, she knew she had only one thing to do: take care of him herself during those ten days.

Considering the friendship and affection she had for Leon, she knew that besides being her duty it was also her will , because she always liked to help him. But this time she was afraid.

After those memories and sensations she had in the way to the hospital, Claire did not know if she really wanted to play with unfamiliar emotions.
