An outing with senior Sage
When Sydney told me that she had figured out a way for us to be able to go out on a date together, I was ecstatic. She asked me where I wanted to go, and I said it didn't matter to me as long as we were together. That got me a smile from her "I'll check online" she had told me. A year ago, I would have never agreed to go on a date to a museum, as I found them dull and boring. I would have chosen going to much more exciting places such as bars and clubs in a blink of an eye. It was times like this that I realized how much being involved with Sydney had affected me, it had changed me for the better.
If the alchemists ever discover Sydney's relationship with me she would be in a great deal of trouble, I didn't like being the reason she was at risk though she always reassured me that it was her choice. I knew that if she ever gets caught, I would never forgive myself. I couldn't live with my self for being the one who destroyed her life and knowing that if she hadn't gotten involved with me she would have been safe.
I have always considered Sydney to be my savior, if it wasn't for her I would have never even considered to quit smoking let alone stop my horrible habit of excessive and heavy drinking. I would have done anything to make her happy and please her, to see that insanely dazzling smile on her already beautiful face. It made all of those sacrifices worth it.
Spirit had been taking a huge toll on me, from the crazy mood swings to impulse purchases. Quitting drinking had made it even worse since I used to depend on alcohol to numb all that darkness and wash it away for a while, but now I had to deal with it on my own. Well not fully on my own as Sydney was very supportive of me.
Sydney came over to my apartment the next day to tell me she found a golf resort that was only about an hour away, I agreed as it was the best I could really get. She also mentioned that we can't really show any affection towards each other while we were in public, that was a real bummer for me though I knew that the alchemists might be watching so I had to agree with her. Sydney's face expression showed that she didn't like being put in that situation either. "I'll meet you at the parking lot on Monday at 1 PM" she informed me "Can't wait" I said with a grin, and then I gave her a sweet peck on the cheek.
I was really tired and worn out on Monday, I had barely gotten any sleep and it was supposed to be my feeding day. Going out with Sydney meant my feeding would have to be delayed until tomorrow. Even though I really needed the blood to survive and supply myself with energy, I couldn't bring myself to cancel on Sydney since this was the first time we get the chance to be able to go out in public, and I knew that we might not have another chance anytime soon. I was planning to go to Clarence's yesterday, but I couldn't due to being stuck working with Rowena on a project for my art class.
I was getting more and more excited by the second, only an hour until Sydney comes by to pick me up. I quickly hopped into the shower, and dried myself with a towel. I settled on wearing a green shirt that I knew she liked and styled my hair the way I usually do, but with a little more care and precision. I wanted to look the best I could for this outing. I was starting to get impatient, and curious. I couldn't wait any longer, this is going to be one of the best days ever.
Sydney finally showed up twenty minutes early, her excessive punctuality was highly useful and to my advantage tonight. We were taking the Ivashkinator to the golf resort, and Sydney as usual insisted on driving. I wasn't the type to enjoy sitting in a car for a period of time longer than 20 minutes, but I wouldn't have minded living in a car if it meant I would be with Sydney all the time. Her company was the best I have ever had and I ever will have, she was funny, sweet, caring and very interesting. Even just looking at her driving made my day better. "Why did you choose a gold resort in particular?" I asked her, though I didn't really care, I just wanted to hear her sweet soothing voice. "Its less crowded than malls, and I know you too well to take you to a museum. Unless you want to go to Spencer's, we don't really have any other choice" she answered me with a slight smile on her face "Golf resort it is then.".
