Other: this is a story about Sydney going on vacation to New Orleans when she is 17, Irina is alive, and really is an English professor, Jack works with the CIA and Sydney and Irina know nothing about it. Sark's mom is alive and his dad is kinda evil.
Chapter 1
"Are we there yet?" asked an impatient Sydney.
"Almost, Jack are we there yet?" asked Irina.
"NO, we're not, if we were you would know!" explained an annoyed Jack.
"This place is really cool." said Sydney who was looking out her window.
For Sydney's 17th birthday, the Bristow's decided to take her to New Orleans for a week.
"Turn left!!!" Irina shouted at Jack who looked like he was going to burst a blood vessel.
About 5 minutes after they left the car rental place the GPS unit died. So instead of turning around and getting a new one, Jack insisted that he could navigate by himself. But they ended up driving up and down the freeway for about an hour trying to find the hotel.
"We're here!" Irina sung happily while Jack went to the trunk to get the luggage out muttering what sounded like "Those women are going to give me a heart attack one day."
Irina heard him and hit him upside the head.
Soon the Valet came and drove the car off.
Sydney was off in space gazing at the décor of the place when she heard her mom call out.
"Huh?" she asked as she spun around quickly.
"Oof"
Sydney felt something solid connect with her luggage and fall down. She went wide eyed knowing what happened.
"Sydney I told you to watch out!" her mother told her, "at least offer the poor boy help up!"
Sydney turned around and saw a gorgeous blonde haired guy picking himself up off of the floor, "Oh my god!" she said panicked "I'm soo sorry!"
Sydney crouched down and extended a hand to the guy who looked very angry sitting there on the parking garage floor.
"Need help up?"
"No, I'm fine." The blonde guy said arrogantly while standing up.
Score one for Bristow for pissing off the hottest guy you will ever see on this trip- and all within the first 5 minutes. Sydney thought.
So, she stood back up and walked to the elevator where her parents were waiting- or rather talking to another couple and every so often glancing her way.
"Sydney, this is Andrian and Shanna, Andrian is an old school friend of mine." Irina explained.
"Nice to meet you- but why are we still waiting?" Sydney asked.
"Because the young man you just knocked down with your suitcase is their son." Jack informed her.
"Oh," Sydney said turning about as red as a tomato, she turned to the guy who was behind her "I'm really sorry about that!"
God, that guy is a hottie! She thought taking in the short somewhat curly blonde hair, his fair complexion, how tall he was he must be at least 6 foot! ; But most of all his piercing ice blue eyes.
The blonde guy just looked at her looking a bit annoyed until his mother looked at him and said "Julian, aren't you going to say something to the girl? She apologized didn't she?"
"Yes mother," he growled "It's ok; you were probably not paying attention." He told Sydney.
She just blushed and looked away embarrassed.
In the elevator while the parents were discussing plans for dinner, two teenage minds were racing.
Well, this is a big bonus to this vacation even though she's a total klutz, she is beautiful. Julian thought as he gazed at her brown hair and eyes, her natural beauty and Whoa, that girl is tall- if only she were wearing a short skirt…
Oh god- he's really hott, has a great name – not to mention the sexy British accent. But he's such a cocky bastard! She felt someone's eyes on her and looked around only to see Julian looking at her – or rather her legs. Is he checking me out? I need to call Francie! She'll know what to do!

"Well Sydney isn't Andrian and Shanna's boy Julian cute?" Irina asked
"Mom!" Sydney groaned.
"I'm only stating the obvious!"
"Well-" Sydney sighed, grabbed her luggage, and went into her room to change and freshen up for dinner thinking If he likes my legs like that then maybe I'll wear that mini I brought.. This could be fun messing with his head…
"Isn't that daughter of Irina's… Sydney I think her name is, beautiful?" Shanna asked Julian.
"Mom!" Julian groaned
"What? No comment?"
"No!" said Julian as he took his luggage to his room to change thinking That woman is always trying to get me a girlfriend- can't she just mind her own business?
Hmm.. it might be fun to play mind games with Sydney, she obviously likes me- how she always is blushing like mad around me.
He opened is suitcase and got out his most flattering outfit thinking Oh, this is going to be fun…
