LeonxReader Hostage Fic
Hello! This is my first experience writing fanfiction :) I have been reading fanfiction since I was 12 so itâs crazy that it took this long for me to dip my toe in! Please be kind with your constructive criticism as Iâve never been much of a writer :)) This will probably stay a one shot unless I want to do more and am not too busy with bills and family responsibilitiesÂ
   Leon x Reader: Married and living in a house in the country. One night when Leon is in late meetings you notice a tactical clad figure in the distance who breaks into your house and holds you hostage to get to Leon
             âReader is tall 5 foot 9 and has asthmaâ
Youâre lounging on the couch waiting for Leon after a long day at work. Your hair is just slightly too wet and dripping on your shoulder but you donât mind since itâs a bit humid outside today. When you glance outside the stars shine bright reflecting off your car and illuminating the woods near your and Leonâs house.Â
Itâs getting pretty late so you know Leon should be getting home any time now. Itâs been a great few weeks of him working office duty with a very routine schedule compared to his normal hours. Tonight was the exception. Leon had given you a heads up earlier this week that he had a day of very late meetings and to not wait up for him; obviously you werenât going to listen to him and so you have hunkered down on the couch ready to wait out the night for your lovely husband.Â
You glance outside once more but this time you see someone standing in the woods. You freeze. For a second your brain canât even process what youâre seeing and all you know is that you can feel your heart skip a beat and start beating like itâs trying to burst out of your chest. Your brain kicks into gear and tries to reassure you that itâs probably Leon coming back but you look out to see that Leonâs car isnât in the driveway. Then you see that the person has what looks like tactical gear. Thatâs definitely not good.Â
You donât want to alert whoever is outside to the fact that youâve noticed them but you can feel yourself internally freaking out; hands shaking you take out your phone and call Leon while getting up off the couch as nonchalantly as possible to head upstairs.Â
The phone only rings a couple times before he answers with his soft voice always reserved for you âHey sweetheart Iâm in a meeting can I call you back?âÂ
You quickly talk into the phone âLeon, I think thereâs someone outside the house!âÂ
Immediately you hear his tone change âI have to go; Meeting is cancelled!" Leon tells whoever heâs there with. âOkay baby tell me exactly whatâs going on from the start.â he urges firmly but with a soft edge and so you start trying to piece your words together to say that you saw a man dressed in full tactical gear in the woods near your house and got a weird feeling; went upstairs and when checking he was still there. You hear a car door slam on the other end of the phone and assume that Leon has gotten into his car to start heading home.Â
âLook outside again and tell me if heâs still there sweetheart. Can you do that?â he asks.Â
You hesitate not wanting to be too obvious by looking out at him often but want to do what you can so you squeeze out a soft âyeah.. Iâll lookâ. When you glance out the window you see that the man is gone. âHeâs gone Leon. Maybe I was just overreacting and--â Leon cuts you off âHey none of that. I would much rather you be safe than sorry and we donât know if heâs completely gone yet.âÂ
Almost like you both jinked the situation the power shuts off making you gasp in surprise. âWhat happened?!â Leon calls out worriedly to you through the phone.Â
You have the urge to whisper when you answer him as to not give away your location âThe power just went out.âÂ
You hear Leon swear on the other end. âIâm coming sweetheart! Barricade yourself into our bedroom.âÂ
You lunge to try and close the door when a canister is thrown into the room and smoke begins to envelope everything. The first breath you take in is a surprised gasp causing you to choke and hack on the chemicals. There was no respite for your poor asthmatic lungs; in a desperate attempt to get any fresh air you drop to the floor. You can hear Leon desperately calling for you on the phone but you are unable to answer as you desperately start crawling toward where you think the door is located when all the sudden you feel something slam into your back so hard that you smack down the rest of the way to the floor with a groan.Â
You twist as much as possible to see that what seems like the man from the woods has his foot on your back. You yell out âWhat do you want?â. The man seemingly ignores you and starts paying attention to something off to the side. Your phone you realize after a second; where you can still hear Leon desperately trying to get ahold of you. The man above you warns in a dark voice âDonât move.â He seems to take a second to make sure you are going to comply while you lay there frozen. He then quickly grabs the phone and before you can even begin to plan an escape heâs right back on you.Â
Putting the phone up to his ear with a grin he calls âMr. Kennedy, Iâve been looking for you.âÂ
You canât hear exactly what Leon is saying but you figure that heâs trying to keep the guy busy and parse out exactly who this guy works for and what his goal is. All the sudden you feel your arms being put behind your back; this is when you start thrashing trying to keep him from tying you up but you are unsuccessful as the man slams you into the ground again whiting out your vision.Â
It takes you a minute to come back to your senses; your head is ringing, you feel something wet dripping down the right side of your face. Distantly you register that itâs your blood leaking from a cut somewhere on your forehead or eyebrow. Your training with Leon kicks in and you start trying to take in the condition of your body and where you were located. When you try to move your hands and feet you feel a heavy duty unforgiving strap of some kind keeping you tied to one of your dining room chairs; you begin looking around the room and notice that you are in your and Leonâs unlit bedroom. Luckily the man from the woods seems to not be present but you stay quiet, and strain your ears to listen for anything or anyone in the house.Â
Itâs eerily quiet. No hum of electricity, no movement, just deathly still silence. Your heart is pounding in your chest and you can feel yourself getting close to hyperventilating. Youâre equal parts happy that your mouth wasnât taped shut, allowing you to keep your breathing under control, and skeptical as to why someone who has seemingly put a lot of thought into holding you hostage would allow such a variable. It almost feels reckless but something tickles at the back of your mind. Leon would be here any minute but you have no timeframe for how long you were unconscious. What if Leon was already here and the guy hurt him?Â
No. You have to stop thinking what ifâs and just work with the situation that youâre already in. You close your eyes and take another deep breath grounding yourself as much as possible. Your eyes flutter open once more and you nearly jump out of your skin as the man from before is somehow standing right in front of you. How had you not heard him? Once he notices that you are conscious a wide grin breaks across what you can make out of his face and he address you âFinally awake. Just in time for the show!âÂ
BAM!Â
That came from downstairs! Leon! He must have arrived. You whip your head back around to your assailant but he seems unbothered by the commotion; hopefully he hadnât set a trap. Soon you start hearing crunching footsteps trying to quietly walk across the debris ridden floor. You have to warn Leon. âOne guy upstairs with me!â you manage to get out before the guy backhands you so hard that you see stars.Â
âStupid bitch!â you register him saying after a second. You almost laugh out loud from how much you seem to have pissed him off but you donât want to anger him further. You feel cold sharp steel pressing close to your throat as the man places himself behind you while staring at the door. You donât hear anything downstairs anymore but you know that Leon would find a way to you.Â
A gunshot rings into the room crashing through the window from behind you and your assailant who grunts in pain; blood sprays from somewhere behind you. You feel the sharp burn of knife scraping against your throat as the masked man seems to fall behind you. Another loud crash of wood and glass shattering; then shuffling as boots crunch against the debris. Thereâs a pause that feels like a century and then Leon is kneeling in front of you "Sweetheart? Hey. Are you okay? Iâm so sorry it took me too long to get here.â he trying to keep his voice level but you can hear it wavering. He beings cutting what you can now tell are really heavy duty zip ties.
âI think Iâm okay.â you know that wonât be true once youâve had time to process the information but for now youâll manage. âWhat about the guy?â you ask worried.Â
âDead.â Leon declares.Â
âGood.â you say. Â
âAtta girl!â Leon chuckles, bringing his hands up to cup your face. âBackup and medical arenât far behind but I want to check you over while we wait.âÂ
Youâve always used humor to cope with crazy situations so what tumbles out of your mouth next is âI see. You just want to get me out of my clothes!âÂ
Leon gives a slightly wet laugh at that and says âYou know me too well. But seriously I need to see with my own eyes that youâre okay. When you called my heart dropped to my stomach and I⌠I just thought⌠I could have lost you and it would be my fault.â tears swelling in his eyes.Â
âHey. None of that. It would not be your fault-â he tries to interrupt but you continue âI would never blame you Leon. You came; you saved me. And I love you.âÂ
Medical checks you over and while they are reluctant to release you for the night because of the hit to the head Leon convinces them that he will keep a very close eye on you for the foreseeable future. Other than that you just have a few scrapes and bruises that you wouldnât mind soaking.Â
You get your wish when Leon lets you know that the two of you will have to stay at a Hotel while the investigation takes place.Â
âI demand a room that has a bathtub big enough to fit both of us!â you declare loudly enough to get some funny looks from the other people aroundÂ
âAnything you want sweetheart. Anythingâ Leon says walking up and full body embracing you. You both just hold eachother for a minute and sync up your breathing.Â
âIn all honesty. Everything I need is right hereâ you say while looking slightly up to the love of your life and the man who would do anything for you.Â
The End
