Warnings: angst mentions of cheating, y/n really dislikes Leon and Ada, enemies to lovers, angst, fighting
The rumbling sounds of truck wheels against gravel, and the muffled sounds of people talking nearby is what jolted you awake. "Shit, how long was I out." You say to yourself. you had a pounding headache and you felt disoriented. It was hard to stay on high alert in these conditions. Looking around, you noticed you seemed to be in a hospital room of some sort. Your hands weren't bound fortunately, but it was strange considering you were considered dangerous. You carefully get off of the shitty cot you were laying on when You flinch and grab your side cursing. Suddenly remembering you had injured yourself during the fight with that monster. But you quickly recover when you hear the sounds a group of people approaching.
"sir, we have no file of her in any system it's like she's doesn't even exist, besides the few images we have from some of the older cases." A young man spoke outside. You looked around for anything you could use to escape or defend yourself while you kept listening to their conversation. "there has to be something, well you what you have to build her profile. then we can fill in the gaps once she wakes up." You hear the conversation pause and you start hearing the door jiggling before you could panic, you notice that there was a vent above your bed. You were sure was big enough to squeeze in. You used also had a bobby pin hidden in your hair and used that as a lock pick. You decided to go through the vent as that was the sneaking option.
Once you got all the screws out using that same, now bent up Bobby pin, you hoisted yourself up and wiggled your way inside. You quietly but quickly make your way through the vent system. So far it seemed like you were in a research facility as there were many white coats and agents walking around.
You kept searching for an exit, when finally finding a loading area. Large trucks and semis crowding the area. It would be easy to sneak out this way. You carefully remove the vent and climb down. But of course just your luck an alarm starts blaring. Positive it was for you, you make a run for it hiding behind, in, and under vehicles. you snuck up behind some guy and choked him out so you could grab his keys.
what felt like too long you finally took a breathe when you drove out of that place. but you remained vigilant due to the fact there may be a tracker somewhere in the small SUV. once you found a gas station you looked around for a clue about where the hell you were. apparently it was about an hour away from raccoon city. and you place was 2 hours in the other direction. so close to home and yet so far. you ditched the SUV in the woods and you "got" another car from a nearby dealership and made your way home.
letting out a big sigh when you enter your home. it was small but it was enough. a nice little place tucked away from prying eyes, and plus it was cheap. your bones ached as you trudge your way to your bathroom to clean yourself up. seeing as those "doctors" couldn't even bother to do even patch your wound. The warm water hurt at first but once you got used to it you wanted to stay in the shower forever.
When you forced yourself out the only thing left on your mind was a drink. an alcoholic drink. so hear you were now standing in the kitchen wearing an old t-shirt and shorts while you let the water from your hair drip and liquor pour. Ha you thought it'd get easier from here. when you turned you see a figure lounging on your couch, you could only see the back of there head but you knew who it was.
Leon Kennedy.
you reach under your kitchen counter and grab for your gun, only to be met with an empty space. "looking for this," he drawls out lazily with your gun dangling from his right hand as if were a toy. you opt for a knife instead. not taking any chances you charge for him, knife in the air ready to strike. except he's quickly on his feet. "wait- wait" his voice softens as if that's supposed to calm you down. But you stop at a distance ready for anything. there was a chance he didn't come alone intentionally or not.
"Kennedy, you have 5 seconds before this is in your skull," your voice laced with venom as you gestured towards the knife. He drops the gun onto your carpeted floor to your surprise. "I dont want to fight you, just wanna talk" his hands raised in surrender. You could only scoff, But you remained defensive.
"What is there to talk about? You broke into my house you stole my gun. And now what?" It was hard to tell what the expression on his face meant. he wasn't that much different from when you were dating but you could see how much his face had hardened. which is that surprising considering the things he had seen throughout his career.
"Look I've come to apologize." he he pauses . "Seeing you again I realized that there were things I needed to say but i never got the chance to". you could only scoff "are fucking kidding me, on what planet did you think this was a good idea, how the hell did you even find me?" he sighs heavily "I know this might seem crazy but I mean it when i say I'm a fucking idiot for hurting you, for what happened between me and Ada" His words came out carefully but you could tell he had been thinking about this for awhile.
"so let me guess Ada finally closed her legs and now you think you can get between mine, you're ridiculous Kennedy" you laugh dryly at that "no that's not it- at all" he sits at the end of your coffee table. "After we separated I had tried to come find you" his dirty blond hair covered his eyes as he stared at floor. "when i realized you left i accepted my loses but then when i saw you again at the warehouse i-" he pauses and you just watch with crossed arms knife still in hand.
"Is that why you handed me over to your lab rat buddies at that facility" you glare at him accusingly. his head snaps up at you. "I had nothing to do with that I swear, they had happened to track me there and when they saw you" he pauses again but you finish his sentence "you didn't want to betray your precious handlers like the good dog you are" you tilt your head knowing you were right. However his silence just confirms it.
you shake your head in disbelief "Leon i am tired and i really don't feel like fighting you so i need you to leave... now" he stands up and walks towards you. you step back and raise your knife at him "don't" you say in warning. he puts his hands back "okay... okay I'll go but just think about what I said" he turns and heads out the front door.
once you hear the door slam shut you immediately sink down onto the floor. you reach up to grab the abandoned drink from the counter and gulp it down. it does little to calm your heart palpitations. you hated that he made you feel like this, you hated him....
