When you thought you could finally go home after a long day at work, your coworkers thought it would be a good idea to meet at a nearby bar. It had been a tough week at D.S.O. and most of them wanted to relax and have a nice time over drinks. Although it was an invitation you could have turned down, you decided against it knowing that Leon would be there too. You and he were just friends, a bond that had remained that way since the incident in Raccoon City years before, however, secretly your feelings for him blossomed into something more.

Inside the bar you took a seat next to Leon, the atmosphere of the place covered by the warm lights, the aroma of beer together with the laughter of your colleagues as background sound dissolved the stress you had been accumulating during the last days due to the workload. You didn't worry about controlling the amount of your drinks. Between casual chats and laughs, the night progressed quickly and little by little the place was emptying, few were those who decided to stay and enjoy a little more of the good atmosphere that had formed in the bar, among them, Leon and you.

Even though you were already quite drunk, you were still able to carry on a halfway coherent conversation with Leon, until at one point, your sloppy tongue let out a few words that caught his attention. "What do you mean you have feelings for me?" An eyebrow raised in intrigue, unsure if he had heard correctly or if he had confused what you said due to your slurred speech.
