Leo couldn’t help but smile as Rhianna and held her hand. When he hold her hand, he feels that he can do anything. He can overcome everything. Rhianna becomes her strength in what he does. Leo looked at Rhianna. Their eyes met, she smiled at him which caused of his heart to beat faster. Those smile, it's loses his sanity. She turned her gaze back to the path still folding his hand. They were close to the abandoned building. Harold was good at lock picking so Leo assigned him to look here at the abandoned building.
When they reached the abandoned building. They immediately go inside. He still holds Rhianna's hand. Leo spotted Harold in a chair and sitting pretty. Lots of drugs piled up next to Harold.
"I'm almost here for a couple of hours." he complaints to them.
"Hey! We are fast going here. You're just sitting pretty, then you're complaining!" Alexandra angrily said while glaring at Harold. But Harold doesn't mind Alexandra glare. As far as he know, Harold likes Alexandra. It was obvious for him. And, he also feel like Alexandra likes Harold, too. He heaves a deep sigh because of what in his mind.
"I'll do the lock-picking Alexandra." Harold said.
Alexandra just stared at Harold. Harold is stupid for not confessing his feelings to Alexandra, as stupid as he is, too. After this mission, Leo will confess how he feel to Rhianna. He will not allow others to get her, especially Brandon.
"It's nice seeing Alexandra and Harold, how they argue." Rhianna said and laughed. He let go of her hand and looked at her. She also looked back at him.
"Why?" she asked.
"Are you jealous?" Leo tease her.
"Incapable!" she said with a blush on her face. He just laughed at her attitude.
"Come on! They might be coming soon." Harold shouted.
Leo and Rhianna went behind the sack of drugs. While the others went to the back of the box of drugs to hide. They will just wait for the drug dealers to come to this building. Leo held Rhianna's hand again. He was about to take a step when someone spoke to his side.
"Ahem! They are holding hands." Faith teased with a smirk on her lips and walked over to where the others were.
Rhianna immediately pulled her hand that he was holding and walked ahead. He sighed and hide very well. He sidestep to Rhianna. He can't be separated from her.
"Alexandra, get the handcuffs ready for us to use. We'll take care of it. You're better be here. Just come out when everything's all right." he commanded while looking at Alexandra. She was carrying a backpack where the handcuffs were. Alexandra has already brought numerous handcuff to be use.
"Copy agent!" she replied and even saluted him. He was just shake his head by what Alexandra did. Leo looked at Rhianna. She pulls out the gun that is around her waist. Even before she released it, he stopped Rhianna.
"You won't use your gun. I won't let you get hurt." he said while staring intently to her beautiful face that was never boring to look at.
"What I will do here if I will not help?" she asked.
"Just follow my orders Rhianna. You better be here." he said firmly. She doesn't answer him. Maybe she's sulking. It's okay to sulk, the important thing is that he make sure she's safe.
"Oh why tomorrow?"
They heard male voice that was probably coming from outside.
"Shit!" another man cursed. They heard gunshots. He felt Rhianna's hand trembled. Until today, she is still afraid of guns. He feels she's just encouraging herself doing this to get revenge on Ysmael. He held her hand.
"Don't be nervous. I'm just here. Trust the team." he said while looking at her eyes intently. She looked at him. And he saw the sparkle in her eyes.
"Be careful, I don't wanna lose you." she said with concern in her voice. He kissed her on the forehead which surprised her.
"Yes, we'll be careful." he said.
Rhianna'sPOV
"Yes, we'll be careful." Leonardo said. And before Rhianna could answer him, he came out of their hiding place. Faith, Brandon, Harold and Carmela also came out. Alexandra and Rhianna were left behind in the drug boxes.
She heard a series of gunshots. She couldn't be comfortable in her hiding place even Leo ordered her to stay that she was just here. She have to help them, she's a member so she have the right to do her job. She came out of her hiding place.
"Rhianna! Come back here!" Alexandra shouted at he but she didn't listen. When she finally come out, her eyes widened when a man's gun pointed at her. Before it was fired to her, Leonardo shot him in the shoulder, causing him to fall and throw the gun at her feet.
The gunshots were gone. Leo's comrades' guns were already pointed at five men. Alexandra came out of hiding and took the handcuffs from her bag and gave them to Leonardo with a look of anger on her face. Is he angry at what she did? That she did not follow what he said. She took her eyes off him because she couldn't stare at his eyes that full of anger.
She looked up. She saw that his comrades were take outside the abandoned building the five men who were now handcuffed. Rhianna looked at Leonardo as if he was preventing himself to get angry at her. She bit her lips because of the nervousness she felt.
Leo approached her. She feel her face discolor at the thought of it. When he was in front of her. She bow her head because she couldn't meet his cynical stare.
"Why did you go out there Rhianna? Didn't I tell you not to come out! You're so stubborn, Rhianna! You don't even think about the people around you. If I didn't see that. What will happen to you? Can you listen to me once again. You're always thinking of yourself! " he shouted with full of anger on his face. She can't allow herself say that to her.
"Yes, it's my fault! It's my fault! Because I'm lame, right? That's what you think of me. Lame?" She spoke and laughed softly. It's up to him what happens when she answer him. If he will leaves me, so be it. It's okay, 'cause the important now is she released the pain in her chest.
"Don't worry, I'm leaving the group. And I'm leaving your power, too! I'm always embarrassing you and also a burden." she said and walked out of the abandoned building.
She could no longer stop herself from crying. She was hurt! It hurts so much what he thinks to her. She just want to help. Before she could finally get out of the building. Suddenlyz someone pulled her. Rhianna saw Leo who did that. Before she could asks question why he did that. He already kiss her.
Rhianna's knee trembled at what he did. Because of the kiss he was doing, she lost her temper with him. She realized that she's responding to the kiss. His passionate kiss is what fuels her sanity. For no apparent reason, she hook her hands on Leo's neck and also responded to his kiss lovingly. He was the one who spontaneously cut off the kiss.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to get angry with you. I was worried too much. I don't wanna lose you, Rhianna. I'll die first before that happens. Please, forgive me. I was just carried away by anger so I said that. I didn't mean to." he saidm Again, he pressed a passionate kiss to Rhianna's lips and she could do nothing but respond.
