governmentninjaLangsfield Park, that was the place Leon had picked. The park was far enough from his place, open, well lit, and with a fair amount of people out, even this time of night. He told Ada to meet him along the south end of Meyers Pond at 9:30pm, and he sat alone on one of the benches as he waited for her. He checked his watch, 9:27, it said, and he let out a bit of a sigh. Was she even going to show? How long should he even sit there and wait for her?
He wondered why he was getting so nervous, sitting there in his blue jeans, dark blue shirt, and suede jacket. This wasn't a date, right? Or was it?
He didn't know, and there in lay the problem between him and her.
Ever since he met in Racoon City, this mysterious woman in the red dress has somehow gotten a grip on his soul that, no matter what, would not let go... and he wasn't sure he wanted it to. He was the cop, but she risked her neck to save his several times, even at great cost to herself. He thought for sure he had lost her in Racoon City, and he swore he would never forget her.
Then, a few years ago, her name began to appear in reports linking her to Wesker. He didn't to believe it, but in Europe, she all but flat-out admitted it.
From the moment they first got an anonymous tip that Ashley had been in that village, until he first ran into several crazed villlagers, he had a feeling that it was more than just luck that he got sent there. He knew it once he and Ada crossed paths in Salazar's castle. She had help him out a number of times, and helped himsave Ashley from whatever Saddler wanted to do to her... but in the end, she betrayed him. She put a gun to his head, and somewhere inside he knew she would've pulled the trigger had he refused to hand over the sample. Once she was free and clear, she set the island to blow up beneath his feet...
...but she also gave him the keys he needed to get out of there alive with Ashley.
Now, all he wanted from her... he didn't know. He wanted to help her, he wanted to save her. He also wanted to choke the bitch. Part of him wanted to hold her tight and never let go, while the rest of him wanted nothing to do with her ever again. But yet, here he was, waiting for her, waiting for answers.

"...I'm in love with you." He paused for a moment. That was the first time he ever admitted those feelings outloud, to anyone.
"Unfortunately, we both work for opposing sides..."

She hurt within...He loved her, she loved him, and the pain of confidentiality/hatred only intensified.
"I-..."
"I'm sorry."

He didn't want to break it, but did so anyway after a few momnts, whispering in response "So am I... "

She wanted to weep, and hence her voice quavered faintly.
"You have nothing to apologize for, Leon."
"Perhaps one day...I'll be able to tell you everything."

Date: 2005-10-30 07:07 am (UTC)"You can tell me everything now."

Date: 2005-10-30 04:09 pm (UTC)"The releasing of such information can have dire consequences attached to it... especially if you're working under the eyes of the truly malevolent." A pause; she looked away for just a few moments.
"I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he already has knowledge of my being here, with you, at this very moment: an act which is punishable on its own."
"And even if you were to ignore everything else, this area is too public: eyes and ears are everywhere."

Date: 2005-10-31 09:36 am (UTC)Still, there was always so much mystery surrounding Ada, he wanted to know everything he could know about her.
"I know... but can you at least tell me something? Not about Wesker, or what you do for him, but about you. I want to know more about you..."

"...All right.
"To start things off, just incase you're wondering, Ada Wong is my true birth-identity.
"My father was of Chinese descent. Despite whatever cultural restraints that had been preventing him from leaving his country at the time, he took himself and his pregnant wife to New York, anyway...I was born there. On May 8th."
Ada smiled. "Kinda went downhill from there."
She paused momentarily.
"Mr. Kennedy, you're pretty mysterious yourself...How about throwing out some facts on your behalf?"

Date: 2005-11-01 06:17 am (UTC)"I'm really not that mysterious." He chuckled a little.
"And in case you're wondering, Leon is my real name, though in High School I went by Scott." He shrugged "'Leon' just always seemed like the name for one of those guys in some dumb romance novel, which really wasn't me, back then."
He grinned a little, he had come a long way since then. "Anyway, my Dad was a cop, one of Philadelphia's Finest, which is largely why I became one.
"I joined the Racoon City PD hoping to work my way up to the STARS team but... well, you know what happened when I got to Racoon City."
