. ˖ ꒰ CONTENT / : fluff .. post re2 au .. dad Leon .. young leon .. female reader..
"Hey maybe you guys can adopt me!" Those were Sherry's words as they made their way outside out of the destroyed rubble. They had been through a lot : After the long journey of fighting off infected civilians in Raccoon City and the underground bunker collapsing on them -- to say they were beaten up was a rough understatement. Leon looked worse for wear.
His shoulder was patched up with white bandages, blood staining the fabric that was now dried up. Their outfits were torn and filthy. Y/n felt like she was gonna collapse with exhaustion, the faint stinging of cuts and lacerations the furthest thing from her mind right now.
"Adopt?!" Leon asked incredulously -- as if the words from Sherry were just NOW registering with him. "I don't know about that..." He was about to protest when Y/n shot him a look and Sherry -- who was looking up at him with those puppy eyes.
The poor girl. She had been through a lot .. had no family but Leon and his girlfriend.
"I don't know if adoption is even relevant considering the state of Raccoon City," Leon tried to joke as they walked down the dirt road.
"I don't see that as a no though," Y/n spoke up. Leon was unsure -- but Sherry and his girlfriend were hoping and he just couldn't crush their hopes.
══════════ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══════════
girl dad Leon - who didn't know how to take care of a kid. He was just 21 -- still suffering through the trauma of Raccoon City.
girl dad Leon - who realized that having his girlfriend and Sherry around actually made him feel less lonely , more hopeful and it helped him cope with his trauma. Girl dad Leon, who actually had a reason to keep going in this world , just so he could come home to Sherry and you.
girl dad leon - who was trying so hard to dress Sherry -- picking out outfits that they came across. The little dresses and girl clothes that Leon picked out were ... well ... ugly. "What about this?" Leon asked holding up a dress that had a cute frog design on the front. "Leon she's 12 -- she's not 6," Y/n spoke up with a chuckle. "What's wrong with frogs?" Leon asked with a huff. "Frogs are cute." Y/n shook her head. "They are but she's still 12 babe. It's cute but how about we go for something else?" She asked. Leon pouted -- gave his girlfriend the puppy eyes. "I'll wear it!" Sherry spoke up, being the mediator. "It makes you happy so I'll wear it," Sherry responded. The way Leon's face brightened up made Y/n smile fondly.
girl dad leon - Sherry needed to be educated. Leon didn't trust anyone or anything so he taught her himself. Leon sat at the table, studying Sherry's homework that his girlfriend came up with. It was basic multiplication -- but Leon was ashamed to admit he still had to use his fingers sometimes to count. "What's 8 times 8?" Sherry asked him. Leon's brain blanked -- and he quickly went through all of his math skills, remembering the rhymes that he was taught in elementary school. "You don't know do you?" sherry asked, which made Leon flush. "Yes I do," He replied back. "It's 64." His girlfriend came out of the kitchen. "that took you an embarrassingly long time babe," She replied, which only made Leon feel MORE embarrassed.
girl dad Leon - who was struggling between military training the government placed him under and being a dad, but made time for her and his girlfriend anyways. It was all worth it in the end : "Look what I drew," Sherry spoke up handing Leon a badly hand drawn picture in crayons. Leon took it from Sherry and looked at it. It was a family portrait : The picture had Leon poorly drawn in a police uniform , holding hands with Sherry and on the other side of the Sherry was a poorly drawn Y/n -- who was also smiling. It was a family photo. "It's cute sweetheart. Let's put this on the fridge so I can admire it all the time," Leon replied with a smile.
girl dad Leon - "Honey I don't know how to do this," Leon told his girlfriend with a flush as he sat behind Sherry running a brush through her soft blonde hair. He was trying to do her hair for the day -- and he was poorly trying to braid her hair because Sherry wanted a braid today. The problem? He didn't know how to braid to save his life. Y/n smiled and walked to the living room to see Sherry's hair tangled in knots. "It's alright babe you'll get the hang of it," She reassured as she fixed Leon's mistakes.
girl dad Leon - who finally got Sherry into proper education. The government decided to send her to their own version of school -- so when the instructor asked to meet Sherry's parents, both Leon and Y/n showed up with pride. The look on the teacher's face was priceless. "You two are her parents?" the teacher asked incredulously. "but you two are so young!" Leon and Y/n glanced at each other. "We know but I'm sherry's dad" Leon replied proudly. He felt like a real dad attending parent-teacher conferences for Sherry.
girl dad Leon -- who allowed Sherry to sleep with him and his girlfriend if she had nightmares. Y/n had gotten home that evening, tired from her work shift. She walked into the living room -- only to find Leon and Sherry curled up against one another. Leon was passed out on the coach , sleeping soundly while Sherry laid on his chest curled up against his neck. Leon's arm was wrapped loosely around Sherry's waist -- like he was protecting her even in his sleep. It made her heart melt. Y/n draped a blanket over them and pressed a kiss against their foreheads.
girl dad Leon - who beamed with pride the first time Sherry had called him 'dad' . It was unexpected. Leon was trying to cook lunch for them , just some grilled cheeses - while Sherry colored in her coloring book. "dad can I have a grilled cheese now?" Sherry asked. Leon's heart raced in his chest, and warmth spread through him. She just called him dad for the first time. Leon couldn't help but puff out his chest in pride - because yeah he WAS sherry's father -- there was no doubt about it. "Of course you can sweetheart," Leon replied. He pressed a kiss against Sherry's head and handed her a grilled cheese and looked at his girlfriend. "You hear that? She called me dad," Leon boasted. It made Y/n smile.
Girl dad Leon - who came home after a particularly cruel mission. He was upset -- tired - and just wanted sleep. Sherry ran up to Leon wearing his old police vest that she had found. "What are you wearing sweetheart?" Leon asked softly. Sherry smile. "I found your old police vest. I want to be an officer just like you one day," She replied. It made Leon's heart melt and he couldn't resist picking up Sherry to hold in his arms. "You'll make a great officer one day dear," Leon reassured. Just the fact that Sherry looked up to him like some kind of hero made Leon realize he was still special and important -- that he hadn't changed. "The vest looks nice on you."
finally girl dad Leon - who kept a family picture in his pocket, tucked close to his chest. It was a picture of Y/n Sherry and Leon -- they were all smiling in the photo -- sherry's arms draped around Leon's arms from behind. The pictured made Leon realize that despite the cruel world they lived in, and despite his trauma with Raccoon City, he could find genuine happiness. The picture gave him a reason to come home every evening -- so he can kiss his girlfriend and take care of their daughter together. It made all the harsh missions worth it.

. ˖ ꒰ CONTENT / : fluff .. post re9 au .. dad Leon .. older leon .. female reader.. swearing warning and mentions of a gun <3
"You're overreacting babe you need to relax."
His wife's words fell on deaf ears. This was officially the worse night in Leon's existence. Maybe he was being dramatic. Maybe he was just being an old grumpy man like his wife joked. Either way there was no way he was going to welcome a boy into their home until he found out the motives of said boy.
"I am relaxed," Leon spoke up calmly as he cleaned his gun thoroughly at the table. He just so conveniently chosen tonight of all nights to get some gun cleaning done. His wife shot him a look - half amused , half exasperated.
"He's just a boy babe. It's her first boyfriend you could be less intimidating?" His wife suggested. She walked over and placed her hands on her husband's broad shoulders rubbing them. It made him relax slightly -- his body subconsciously leaning towards her touch.
"Yeah he's just a boy. You know what boys are? Idiots. Kids her age , especially boys , are the most troublesome and immature boys ever," Leon defended. "She's our daughter. I'm just making sure this boy is good enough for her is all."
His wife chuckled and leaned down pressing a kiss against her husband's cheek. "You're so protective over Esme," She commented with a smile. "You know years ago I'd have said the same thing : that boys your age were immature and dumb," She joked.
Leon shot her a look. She was talking about his rookie days when he was 21.
"that's different. I had a rough time and I was more mature than boys today are," Leon defended.
"Uh huh sure," She replied dryly. "Well if anything could you at least put away the gun? You're going to scare the poor boy and Esme likes him," His wife lectured.
Leon paused. He supposed she was right. He could put away the gun. A gun was unnecessary -- he was already intimidating enough with his stern build and his glare. A gun wasn’t required to intimidate a young boy. He had intimidated men older than him.
“You’re right,” Leon replied with a sigh. He stopped what he was doing and placed the gun to the side so he could put it away later. “Why need a gun when I’m enough?” He asked.
His wife rolled her eyes playfully. The sound of footsteps coming downstairs were heard. Both Leon and Y/n stood up and headed to the base of the stairs, where their daughter was getting ready for her date.
“What do you think Leon?” His wife asked, snapping him out of his stupor.
“You look very nice sweetheart,” Y/n spoke up, pressing a kiss against their daughter’s head. Leon grumbled underneath his breath.
Seeing his daughter dressed up nice only solidified the growing dread with him: his daughter was growing up already.
Leon sighed internally and offered a soft look. “You look beautiful sweetheart,” Leon replied, which made Esme smile.
“Thank you. He’s almost here so could you two be nice?” Esme asked.
“Of course,” Y/n spoke up. When Leon didn’t say anything his wife nudged him in the side making him grunt.
Leon sighed and shot his wife an exasperated look. He made a halo around his head silently , agreeing to be on his best behavior. It made Y/n smile.
It was only a few minutes later that the doorbell rang. Leon straightened up and stood in the living room as his wife opened the door and saw the boy. “Hi thank you for taking care of Esme for the night,” His wife greeted Chase.
Chase gulped when he saw Leon standing there. The poor boy was already nervous -- clutching flowers tightly in his grip.
“Mr and Mrs. Kennedy,” Chase spoke up, trying to keep the waver from his voice out. “Thank you for allowing me to take out your daughter. I promise I will take care of her and bring her back in one piece,” He spoke up. “Oh these are for you,” Chase added, holding out the flowers for Y/n.
“No,” Leon spoke up with a scoff. “We’re not on a first name basis yet.”
“You’re very sweet thank you, and please call me Y/n,” She spoke up, taking the flowers from Chase and setting them on the table in the vase.
“This is my husband. You can just call him Leon.”
Chase winced just as his wife shot him a look. Leon just had to make sure Chase was a good guy.
“What intentions do you have for our daughter?” Leon decided to ask. Y/n could practically hear Chase’s heart race.
“Dad,” Esme replied sternly but Y/n held her back. It was a valid question, one Leon had a right to ask.
Y/n was already won over -- while Leon seemed surprised at the answer. Leon narrowed his eyes, and finally he sighed.
Chase sighed. Despite his intimidation from Leon he still decided to answer honestly.
“Mr. Kennedy. I really like your daughter Esme. She’s an amazing person with a beautiful personality and an outside to match. My intentions for her are purely innocent. I wish to keep seeing her and I would like to date her. I promise I will take good care of her and never hurt her. I want to be with her and I want nothing but good for her wellbeing,” Chase stated seriously.
“You better not hurt her. I want her back here in one piece -- untouched. She better have everything she left with on her when you bring her back,” Leon replied sternly.
“Of course sir!” Chase flushed and straightened up.
“And you’re just going to the movies and arcade?” Y/n asked.
“Yes ma’am that’s the plan. I plan on taking her out for dinner at her favorite eating place and then the movies and arcade. I will have her back by 10 pm,” Chase stated.
“9:30,” Leon replied. He wasn’t going to accept anything but 30 minutes past 9.
“Very well 9:30 then. I promise she will be back by that time,” Chase compromised, wanting to just get out of Leon's intimidating presence.
Esme was embarrassed -- slightly flustered at how her father was acting but it was Leon S. Kennedy : He was a damn DSO agent and did a bunch of scary shit most men couldn’t dream of doing.
“Alright enough interrogation. Be safe and come back soon okay?” y/n asked, pressing a kiss against her daughter’s head.
“I will love you,” Esme spoke up.
Leon sighed and hugged Esme too. “Have a good time sweetheart, and remember it’s okay to say no,” Leon spoke up.
Esme huffed and nodded. “Yeah yeah I know dad,” She replied. “Even a nonverbal answer is a no.”
Leon nodded and let her go. It was only until after Esme was gone with Chase that Leon softened up.
“He’s decent .. for now,” Leon replied reluctantly.
“He’s a cutie. Reminds me of you,” his wife joked while hugging him. She pressed a kiss against Leon’s neck and ran her hands over his broad chest and waist.
“You know what the good thing about this is? She’s gone and we have the house to ourselves.”
“Did she take pepper spray with her?” Leon suddenly asked.
Leon grunted and moved his hands underneath his wife’s shirt. “I suppose I can be persuaded to relax,” Leon spoke up looking down at his wife.
They had the whole house to themselves for once. Leon was looking forward to spending time with his wife. He leaned down and pressed a kiss against her lips before drawing back.
“Oh god Leon she has it in her bag relax,” His wife stated with a chuckle as she pulled away.
“Come on, let's order something in and watch a movie in bed,” She suggested heading upstairs.
Leon smirked and followed his wife quickly heading to their shared bedroom.

. ˖ ꒰ CONTENT / : fluff .. post re9 au .. first time dad Leon .. older leon .. female reader expecting .. swearing warning <3
Leon felt like he had been living for a very long time now, longer than most. Between the very start of his career in Raccoon city in 1998 to the current year Leon felt like he had been stretched thin. For years he had fought against things that no one should really experience. Infected civilians, bioweapons , bioterrorism , hell even other agents. At 49 Leon felt like he was actually older than his physical age. He had been doing this shit for a very long time.
That being said , there were many things that Leon didn't think he'd get the opportunity for but did ; permanent friends , a lover , a baby. He knew he was capable and competent. He had lived for so long , had seen so much shit that this should come as easy as breathing to him.
Leon swore for the 15th time that afternoon as he fumbled pieces of the wooden crib he was trying to build. This was utterly ridiculous : He was a grown man.
He was a DSO agent. He could kill things , take apart and put together guns blindfolded , even disarm bombs under 30 seconds.
but this? He swore he was going to die before he could build the crib properly. This somehow was more of a challenge than building a gun from scrap parts. It didn't help that Leon was old already -- hell just the realization that his wife was pregnant nearly sent him into an early grave when he first found out.
He swore he was too old -- He didn't think that he was capable of contributing to making kids anymore but here they were 5 months later putting together a nursery for the baby girl they were having.
Leon glared at the offending pieces of wood that were sitting in a pile in front of him. They were inanimate objects and he felt like they were laughing at him , mocking him even.
"For fuck's sake," Leon managed to say as the railing side of the crib wobbled and fell back to the floor. He snatched it up and frowned, re-reading the instructions for what felt like the 100th time.
"Having trouble babe?" His wife's voice spoke up from behind. Leon groaned internally. Just what he needed : His wife seeing him being bested by a fucking crib at his grown ass age.
"No I got it," He commented, his voice coming out rough as he restarted. He held up a piece of the crib and examined it.
"That's the bottom rail babe," She commented.
"I knew that," Leon responded (he didn't.)
"You're holding it upside down and backwards," She added.
Leon paused, feeling vexed. "I knew that too," He stated , when he in fact did not. He could hear his wife chuckling which made the heat of embarrassment creep up to his ears.
He quickly fixed his mistake as his wife entered the very pretty nursery that was in their shared house. She sat on the rocking chair by the corner holding a cup of tea in her hand.
Leon glanced up -- just for a second but he got distracted. His wife was always very beautiful, and now that she was 5 months pregnant she was even more beautiful. He loved his wife deeply there was no mistake on that.
"Are you sure you don't need help dear?" she asked again making him look down at the crib. Leon scowled. Again that feeling of being vexed came back.
"It's just a damn crib -- pieces of wood held together by screws. I got it. besides I don't want you straining yourself," Leon replied defensively.
He squinted at the directions again. He closed his eyes and then opened them again. Somehow the instructions were making less and less sense.
His wife smirked, watching him , which wasn't helping. It made him feel like he was being tested.
"I got this," Leon spoke up. He wasn't sure he was trying to convince her or him -- probably both. Leon carefully analyzed each piece -- and started to rebuild it again.
Despite his complaints, his wife set down the cup and held the pieces of the crib where it was needed so he could lean over and screw in the screws. His wife watched him, tracing over his shoulders that were broad down to his arms that were beautifully enticing.
Her husband had only gotten hotter with age, and at 49 he was still a total catch -- enough to make her want to get pregnant again by him.
She figured she got a win out of this : She helped him build the crib and she got to watch him -- he was basically her eye candy.
Leon let out a huff underneath his breath. He could feel his wife staring at him in that way -- the way that made him feel warm. He pushed his bangs back from his face and finished screwing in the last screw for the crib.
"Fucking finally," He spoke up with a sigh of relief. The crib was now built : It was pretty sturdy -- a beautiful stained wood that was polished.
The crib looked beautiful -- perfect for their daughter that was coming in 4 months. "It's beautiful babe thank you," She spoke up.
Leon nodded in response and placed the crib against the wall. His wife stood up and helped him place the mattress into the crib. She folded the baby blanket and draped it over the side of the crib while Leon placed a stuffed animal in the corner of the crib.
She smiled when she saw it. It was the raccoon stuffed animal that she had bought for Leon -- but they had given it to their daughter. It was a raccoon that was wearing a little police uniform. She had bought it for Leon because it was cute, and it reminded her of his 'rookie' days.
Leon had a lot of trauma from his early days in Raccoon City, and honestly his rookie days were some of the worst memories he had -- but his wife had somehow helped him not resent his rookie days as much. After all , all of the shit he had been through eventually led him to her and their family.
"I thought you were going to give up," She joked, sliding her arms around her husband's waist from behind. Leon scoffed and wrapped his arm around her.
"As if. It was just a crib there wasn't any way I was going to let it beat me," He stated. It made her smile.
"Yeah I figured you wouldn't give up. It's not your style. I kind of liked watching you though," She added teasingly running her hands over his stomach and chest.
He chuckled and grabbed her wrists. "I'm flattered you're still attracted to me at my old ass age -- but hell I'm too tired for anymore of that shit," He stated.
She grinned. "Me too," She responded. "I think those days are behind us."
they were just too old and too tired to be intimate anymore. It was fun back in their late and early 20's and early 30's -- but now they were just at that age where it wasn't fun anymore and instead found intimacy in more fulfilling ways. Ie: cuddling, hand hold and lots of shared kisses behind closed doors. Besides she was pregnant now.
"Esme will love it," she added. They had decided to name their baby Esme -- a beautiful girl name.
Leon nodded and turned his head -- pressing a kiss against the side of his wife's temple.
"Yeah she will. I can't wait to have her here in my arms," Leon admitted. It was the truth. While he was 49 -- he was more than ready to be the dad that he never thought he'd get the opportunity to be -- with a wife that he loved dearly.
"Me too," She agreed. "We should baby prep the house though -- cover sockets and stuff."
Leon groaned under his breath -- already worn out just from MORE baby prepping , but if it was for their daughter he would do it without complaints.
no longer the only rookie, Leon was paired up with a new cop at the RPD -- and he desperately wanted to impress you. A random routine check leads towards something more.
ꜞꜞ fluff no virus au soft baby leon ♡ ᆜ
. ˖ ꒰ CONTENT / : fluff .. no virus au .. awkward rookie leon .. clumsy leon .. mistakes were made .. no warnings <3
There was more bustling and chatter than usual at the Raccoon City Police Department. The last time Leon had seen this chatter and business was when he joined the RPD as a fresh faced rookie. In a way , he still was a fresh faced rookie , but he wasn't the main focus of the RPD anymore. Leon entered the department -- his police uniform and vest on. He walked up the steps of the RPD to the second floor -- and passed by Marvin on the way.
"Hey Marvin what's going on?" Leon asked gently. He felt like he was out of the loop of the news today. The older cop stopped , holding files in his hand.
"New rookie today. Looks like you're no longer the new kid we can give a hard time to," He commented with a smile. Leon's heart skipped a beat. A new recruit? Having a new worker was always exciting , but Leon felt more excited than usual. No , excited wasn't really the main emotion he was feeling. He was .. relieved , that he was no longer new. It made him feel less alone.
As Leon stopped at his desk to get started on some reports that were piling up, the chief exited his office and purposely sought him out. "Rookie. My office now," The chief commanded.
Leon stood up, a flush to his cheeks. The only reason why he'd be called to the chief's office is A: he's in trouble. B: the chief is assigning him to something, or C: criticizing his behavior. Leon nervously adjusted his vest and headed to the office, closing the door behind him.
The chief was an older man , at least 20 or 30 years older than Leon , who was just 21. "You must have heard the chatter today about a new recruit joining us," The chief started.
"Yes sir I have," Leon responded calmly.
"Then you realize that just like you , she also needs to shadow an officer," The chief pointed out. He gathered some stacks of papers and set them to the side. "I am having the new girl pair up with you."
Leon froze. Pair up? With him?
"But sir I'm not experienced yet. I'm still new," Leon pointed out.
"Yes I'm aware you're new Kennedy , but you know more than you're aware of. The reason why I'm pairing her with you is because she is around your age , and out of all of the officers, you will make her feel less anxious," The chief stated. "she's a shy thing. I want you to show her around and go on patrols with her. Consider this a partnership where you two can learn from each other -- or rather she can learn from you," The chief stated.
He leaned back in his seat. "Truth be told the other officers didn't really show enthusiasm either to have a rookie shadow," He added. "The others just don't want to do it. Says they don't want to have someone stick to them constantly. You seem like the type to not complain though."
Leon couldn't help but internally agree. He had always strived to impress everyone. He had spent a few months doing above and beyond to get everyone's approval. That's all he wanted : to show people that he was a capable police officer who could be relied on. He was 21 sure , but he was mature and could handle the big city life. His people pleasing nature got the better of him , even now.
"Yes sir! I'll do my best to impress you sir. I promise I can handle this," Leon reassured overenthusiastically. He was more than ready to prove his worth and skills to the big chief.
"yeah I know you will kid. Here's her file. She will be here around noon. Make sure to greet her at the base of the staircase by then," The chief responded handing the file to Leon. Leon took the manilla folder from him and nodded before leaving.
-----------------------------------------------
"Hello! I'm Leon Kennedy I'm here to show you around," Leon greeted. He tried to remain calm and keep the nerves out of his voice. The last thing he needed was to freak the woman out. She was young -- around his age , maybe a year or two older.
"Oh thank you," Y/n replied softly. As a new recruit she was nervous. It was one thing to be young. It was another thing entirely to be a woman in a male dominated field.
she noticed that he was slightly nervous as well.
Leon nodded in response and turned around. "Let me show you all of the departments first and then your desk," He commented.
The woman followed Leon , walking around the department. It was overwhelmingly big to say the least. There were lots of rooms, a locker room for uniforms and to change , a main foyer where there was a check in desk , a break room. They went upstairs where she saw the bookshelves lining the walls, and entering a hallway led to more rooms -- most meeting rooms, others storage. Finally she was led to her desk -- which was next to Leon's. All of the officer's desks were on one level.
The more Leon showed her around the less nervous he became. It was just talking after all. "That's all. Let me know if you need any help , or if you just want a friend to talk to," Leon spoke up. It made Y/n smile.
"Thanks Leon," She responded. The way she thanked him gently and smiled made his heart skip a beat. He felt warmth creeping up on his ears but he pushed it back.
"You're welcome," He replied with a smile back.
-----------------------------------
This was ridiculous. He felt like he couldn't get anything right with her. It's only been a few weeks and already he was screwing up.
Monday : They went on patrol. Leon dropped his keys to the patrol car. He then proceeded to LOCK his keys in said car , closed his sleeve in the door and tripped in front of her.
Tuesday : paperwork. Leon tried to get them both coffee. He fumbled and the coffee spilled over her desk -- where he spent 40 minutes profusely apologizing and cleaning it up.
Wednesday : More patrol. Nothing went wrong this time thankfully , but he did manage to fumble his words slightly when he was giving a ticket to someone. Oh yeah and when the guy told Leon to have a good day, he absentmindedly said 'love you too' -- and then proceeded to apologize profusely while Y/n laughed.
Thursday and Friday were just mediocre at best. His mind seemed to shut off around her and he babbled like a complete fool around her, not to mention the fact that he nearly dropped his lunch in front of her in the break room. He just couldn't catch a break. It was like all of the training from the academy disappeared when he was around her. The weekend couldn't come soon enough.
----------------------------------
It was a simple routine check. There were reports that teenagers had broken into one of the old hospitals that were abandoned in Raccoon City. The hospital was notorious for ghost stories and dares -- dares by stupid teenagers who thought it'd be cool to try and brave the hospital at night. There were constant reports of high school kids and college kids breaking into the hospital for dares and bragging rights.
Leon never liked the hospital. There was just something unsettling about an abandoned hospital at night -- midnight even. Just standing at the gate made him feel unsettled. The rusty iron gate that CLEARLY had a no trespassing worn out sign was open -- bolt cutters. Leon held his flashlight as Y/n was next to him.
Y/n smirked. "Are you going to move tonight or are you going to stand there?" She asked. It made Leon flush. Right right he was supposed to check it out. Not only that , but he desperately wanted to impress the girl that he found cute. He wanted to be competent for her and show maturity with her.
"Yes let's go!" Leon replied all too quickly , trying to keep his voice steady as he finally passed through the gates. The woman followed him -- both of them shining their flashlights along the ground and worn out building. Nature was slowly taking the hospital back. It looked decrepit -- it was deteriorating from the outside in. As they passed through the front doors (also open) Y/n spoke up.
"So what's the deal with this place? Was it like an asylum or something?" She asked casually as she swept her flashlight over the molding deteriorating walls. The entire place look straight out of a horror movie.
"Supposedly," Leon replied. "Not really called an asylum as much as it was a psychiatric hospital where they rehabilitated people with mental illnesses. Asylums aren't really even active anymore , if at all. I believe the term today has changed," Leon explained calmly. "Just stick close to me."
Y/n smiled. "Stick close? Okay sure I will but you seem to be vibrating," She joked, referring to his jumpy behavior.
Leon scoffed. "I'm not vibrating. I'm cold there's a difference," He responded.
"Sure," She replied. They both checked out the main floor first. There wasn't much to see : overturned desks , old moldy papers , destroyed chairs , broken computers , pieces of the floor missing and upturned.
The first floor was clear. They proceeded down the hallway of the second floor. they came across a door. "Let me take care of this," Leon responded. He shoved the doors open, but they wouldn't budge. He flushed.
Tried again. It didn't budge. "It's just stuck," Leon defended. He used most of his body weight and shoved against the door -- it opened finally but the sudden opening made his balance uneven and he fumbled his flashlight before falling on his face.
There was a snort behind him and then laughter. She was laughing at him. "Are you alright Leon?" She asked through giggles as she helped him up. He groaned -- his entire face red. This was mortifying -- first the doors got stuck and now he just fell on his face in front of her.
"Shut up I'm fine," He insisted with a flush. He got helped up and they both quieted down.
"It's okay to be a little uneasy," She reassured. "I'm uneasy too."
The confession was meant as an olive branch -- a way to bond with Leon to let him know that he wasn't alone and he did not have to be ashamed.
"Really?" Leon asked softly. She nodded.
"Well it's just that abandoned places aren't really my high list of things I like is all. It's not that there's anything here that scares me. It's just the atmosphere," He replied.
They kept walking -- the sound of something falling was heard making both of them freeze. A cold sweat broke out on both of them, and fear started making their hearts race.
"What was that?" Y/n asked.
"Probably the teens we're looking for," Leon replied, trying to reassure her. He cleared his throat and used an authoritative voice. He was a cop not a kid.
"RPD come out you've been caught already!" Leon called out calmly. They waited -- when no one came out Leon and Y/n shared a look.
"Maybe it was just an animal?" Y/n asked.
They made their way over to the room where the bang came from. Elizabeth checked it -- it was clear. There were now two paths split in a Y shape.
"Okay how about we split up?" Leon asked. "i'll take right you take left."
"Are you insane? You're going to get us killed. This is exactly what horror movies teaches us NOT to do," Y/n replied , her heart racing. Leon grinned in response.
"Are you scared?" He asked teasingly. "We're not in a horror movie Y/n we're looking for teenagers. Don't worry there's no ghosts that will possess you," He reassured.
"You don't know that," She replied back. She let out a sigh. "but fine. If I die though I'm haunting your ass."
Leon laughed in response and left -- heading down the right hallway while she took left. Y/n was scared. She was a huge person to admit that. She was scared of places like this, simply because she had seen WAY too many paranormal movies and routinely watched Supernatural every evening.
all of the rooms that were in that hallway were empty. Y/n was just about to turn back and leave when she heard something shift a few feet behind her.
Her heart raced immediately and fear set in. "Leon?" she called out.
No response. She felt dread creeping up on her. "LEON?" She called out again. She turned around and swore to herself as she walked -- back down the hallway so she could meet at the Y intersection again.
"This isn't funny seriously," She replied. She was already on edge -- She opened a locker door and a raccoon jumped out. It scared her to death , and because she was already uneasy and terrified she screamed -- actually screamed loud enough to put scream actors out of a job that last 5 seconds.
"Y/n!" Leon shouted as he came down the hallway. He heard her scream and immediately abandoned his search to come to her rescue. When he found her she was trying to take a breath -- leaning against the wall.
Leon saw the raccoon scurry off -- and it was his turn to laugh now. He found himself snorting and then laughing at her misfortune until tears came to his eyes.
"Did you get scared by a raccoon?" He asked incredulously through laughter.
Y/n finally gathered herself and she scoffed. "Shut up I had a heart attack," She replied shakily. "I thought I was gonna die and you're laughing."
Leon reigned in his laughter, but that shit eating grin was still on his face.
"Sorry it's just hilarious. With a scream like that I swore you were in genuine trouble. Don't scare ME like that anymore," he replied softly -- now serious. The last thing he needed was the lose the girl he liked.
He reached out and cupped her cheek -- it made her flush red and her heart skipped a beat. His hand was warm -- the way he delicately cradled her face for a moment made her feel all shy and warm inside. He was checking to make sure she wasn't hurt.
She sighed. "Sorry," She apologized softly as he removed his hand from her face. "Did you find the teens yet?"
Leon shook his head. "Nah they're gone. There's no more areas to check. I think they left as soon as they saw our lights."
"Great let's get out of here," She responded. she followed Leon out until they were finally in the open air outside.
"Let's just get back to the RPD then," Leon spoke up opening the door. He fumbled for his keys and ended up dropping them in the grass making her huff.
"You're just clumsy around me," She pointed out. It made Leon flush.
"Sorry!" He quickly apologize. "You just .. make me nervous."
Y/n paused, her heart skipping a beat. She wasn't expecting that -- but she also wasn't shaming him for it. "It's okay .. you make me nervous too," She replied softly.
Leon froze. "really?" He asked turning to look at her.
She nodded. "Yeah. I mean .. you're cute and all -- and I just get shy around you," She admitted. She thought that Leon was truly a man worth so much. He was a good man -- a kind one.
Leon smiled slightly. To know that she found him cute was reassuring -- because it meant the feelings between them were mutual.
"Me too," He responded softly as he picked up the keys. "Would you be willing to join me for dinner Friday then?" He asked, deciding to shoot his shot.
She froze. "Dinner?" she asked, wanting him to clarify. Leon nodded. When he nodded she found herself reciprocating the gesture.
"Okay dinner sounds great with you," She replied with a flush. "I'd like to get to know you outside of the uniform."
Leon grinned and tossed his keys up in the air before catching them in his hand. "Perfect I promise you won't be disappointed in me," He replied opening the door.
"I don't think you could ever make me disappointed in you," She reassured sliding into the passenger seat. The words made Leon feel like a shy schoolboy again.
.........................
"Where's your flashlight?" Y/n asked suddenly when she realized he didn't have it on him. They were heading back to the RPD.
Leon froze -- and then he slapped his forehead, suddenly remembering. "I dropped it back at the hospital when you screamed. I forgot!"
Y/n laughed. "It's okay I found it funny. It's not the end of the world."
It wasn't -- because a flashlight could be replaceable. The way Leon rushed to her aid without a second thought -- well the feelings she had towards that would never be replaceable. At least she knew he'd rescue her when she needed him.
