AN: I'm a little blue right now so this might turn out bleak. It's a Will
POV, don't ask me what about.
Disclaimer: Do I look like I own Alias? Oh yeah, you can't see me… well trust me, I don't.
There's another man. I hate that I know her so well that I call see these things, and yet the fact that I know her is one of the chief consolations in my life. I've been in love with Sydney for so long, but it seems like I always come in second to someone. First it was Danny, now it's Joey's Pizza.
Oh I'm sure she thinks none of us know who Joey's Pizza is, and of course we don't know specifics. But when you add up the evidence—he calls at least once a week, always the same voice; she never says anything about changing the number even though I know Francie wants to; every time she gets a call, she leaves to go see him—it has to be the new man in her life.
Part of me wants to tail her, to figure out what's going on like I did when I pursued the story behind Danny's murder. Oh course I remember how that turned out… maybe that's not such a good idea.
My one foray into investigative writing… talk about a disaster waiting to happen. I ended up getting kidnapped, beaten, and left in the middle of no where because of it. I should have taken Sydney's advice and ignored it. Come to think of it, why didn't she want me to pursue it? No, I'm not going to allow myself to think that way. I need to drop it, my entire world depends on it.
So instead I'll go back to thinking about Syd. I've been in love with her since college. I guess she knows that, after the two times I kissed her it'd be kind of hard to miss. But it's never been awkward between us—you know, the "Oh man he likes me and I don't feel the same way what do I do" kind of awkward. There were a few minutes after that last kiss… the first time we were too drunk to feel awkward.
There was actually a time when I thought she and I might get together. This was back before she met Danny… before I introduced her to Danny I should say. I never thought they'd fall in love. If I had I might have hesitated to introduce them. No, I wouldn't have, because in the end I just want her to be happy.
So I guess I won't say anything about Joey's Pizza either. Not that I'm completely sure the guy makes her happy, she seems more out of it since they met than she was before. But I do know that meeting him was what gave her back her spark after Danny died. For that I'll be forever grateful, and I suppose I can overlook the look of tired determination she always wears now. Still, it feels weird to be jealous of someone I don't know… why do I always have to come in second?
