Leon Kennedy x Reader (RE4R)

Chapter Four

You burst into laughter at his comment. Holding your tummy with your hand, you try to catch your breath. "well i'm not THAT bad. I actually never burned any food!" You laugh and you can see Leons face expression changing from smiling to slightly pouting. He's making puppy eyes, pretending to even cry a little bit, sniffin. The sight of it is adorable. "Hey, o-okay, okay i didn't mean to be that mean to you. I'm sorry okay?"

Leon feels himself blush as you start laughing.

"Oh no," he says in reply to your joke before he feels an involuntary smile form on his lips. He lets out a soft laugh as you continue to tease him, his eyes filled with curiosity. "Am I really that bad at cooking?" He asks with an amused smirk.

His face turns from amusement to surprise as you fake-cry from his "bad cooking" joke. "Hey, hey..." he protests, "Oh, come on! That's just not fair!"

He playfully shoves you with his head.

"Your right, i guess the best way to really find out is, if we cook together someday maybe?" you gently nudge his side.

Leon smiles at your suggestion.

"That... actually sounds fun. I'd love do that." His expression lightens up at the idea. "Any preferences on what to cook, or should I be the chef and surprise you?" He laughs, grinning cheekily, a hint of playfulness in his voice.

"Um, actually,...surprise me, Chef" you wink at him.

Leon sighs and gives your hand a light squeeze.

"Alright, I'll see what I can do. But it'll probably be terrible!" He chuckles, giving you a slight bump back.

"How about you? Any hidden talents I should know about? Any other hobbies like drawing or cooking you can share?" He asks, looking over at you as he speaks. "I'm assuming you're not the musical type?" He says with a grin on his lips, a bit of sarcasm in his voice.

"Oh no, haha. I'm actually terrible at singing or playing an instrument. Those things are better kept away from me for your own sake" you giggle.

Leon laughs at your comment.

"Oh, I'm sure you're not that bad. I'm sure you'll be able to play the triangle at least..." he says with a grin on his face.

His expression softens as he speaks.

"Tell me more about you though. What did you do before all this? What would you normally be doing if you weren't fighting for your life right now?" He asks the question with sincerity in his voice and in his eyes, giving your hand a light squeeze as he does.

You start to sink your head, looking at the ground. "Well, i would be saving lifes probably. I'm a paramedic, you know. So if you ever get hurt, HEY i can help!" you chuckle looking up again.

"Oh, that's awesome! So you're the type of person that goes running towards the sound of gunshots or explosions, right?" He grins.

His mind starts to wonder at the image of you running into dangerous situations without a second thought, all in the name of saving people.

"That's amazing," Leon says quietly after a brief silence. "I'm guessing you were good at what you did, huh?"

"Ah, not running into a gunfight, but caring for the people that got hurt, yeah." I would probably shit my pants, if i had to be in a proper gunfight. I hate guns, you know.....only causes harm." You shake your head a little before continueing speaking. "And yes, i love my job. Makes me feel like i did something good, at the end of the day, y'know".

Leon stays quite for a couple of seconds befor he speaks again.

"I completely get where you're coming from. But either way, that doesn't exactly sound like an easy job. Especially since you're dealing with dangerous situations all the time."

He smiles softly at the fact that you love your job.

"That's a good thing though... when people enjoy their work. Or when they enjoy helping others." He sighs. "But I bet you probably have some crazy stories to tell people right? What's the craziest thing you've ever seen as a paramedic?"

"Oh there was this Guy ones,..he had a little too much fun with himself, y'know? And,....". You Two keep walking, talking about God knows what. After some Time it starts to rain. A LOT. You Guys really need to find some shelter, cause you are both soaking wet. It's also quite cold. So you both start to search for some safe place to stay the night.
