"You can't do this."

It had been a month since he left and you could still vividly remember the last few words you spoke to him.

"I'm sorry."

His words meant nothing at the time, they still didn't.

"That's bullshit, Leon. If you were sorry you wouldn't be leaving again."

You were so angry at him, he wouldn't tell you anything.

"Just, please, you have to trust me. I need you to stay here, where it's safe."

You knew you trusted him with everything you had, but you were so tired of waiting.

"I do. You know I do. But why won't you tell me what's going on?"

He had no reply, only a sigh. He was putting his walls back up again, just when you had started to break them down.

"Here. If anything happens to me or anything changes, someone will get into contact through this."

He had handed you a small device with an even smaller screen, it looked like a pager of some sort.

"It's one way, you can only receive messages."

You could have slapped him for that one.

"I'll come back, I promise. Just stay out of trouble."

Then he left. That was a month ago.

For the first month, you did nothing but cry. It seemed ridiculous, to cry yourself to sleep every night all because a man left you. But you couldn't help it. You had been with him for so long, been with him through so much, it was hard not to fall in love with him. In fact, it was impossible.

It was impossible not to fall in love with Leon Kennedy.

You despised waking up in the morning. You hated the way the world carried on and the sun rose in the sky and fell in the evening as if he never existed. You didn't go to work, you couldn't handle it. Everything there reminded you of him. It was your luck you were so close to the Lieutenant, else you would have most certainly lost your job. She gave you the first month off in understanding that you needed time to 'grieve', which you were in a way. Not having Leon by your side was like losing the most important part of yourself, it was like a void had made a home in your soul and only his presence could fill it.

The second month you were going stir crazy. You were glad to make your return to the police station, it helped to keep your mind off the tall, dark and handsome rookie who had hair far better than anyone you had ever met. Every night you came home and went straight to the little device he left you with to see if he had tried to contact you, and every night the stupid thing said the same thing.

No new messages.

It pissed you off to no end. You dreaded coming home to look at it, knowing deep down he wasn't gonna get in touch. But if he wanted to be that way, then fine. It was on a rainy night almost three months after he left that you took a hammer to the device and smashed it into a million tiny pieces on your kitchen floor. It felt good at the time to see it destroyed, it was just a waste of space anyway since it clearly wasn't gonna be used. If Leon or Helena or Ada or whoever needed you, they could show up to you home and talk to you face to face, thank you very much.
