BEFORE YOUR LOVE

Soft, smooth lips, wet and lucious. She loved him so much, she couldn't turn away from

him. She'd never let him go. She'd love him forever, and never leave his side. RRRRING.

She picked up the phone and listened, "Joey's Pizza," said the same sweet voice in her dreams.

She yawned and said, "I love you too." I hung up the phone, and was just drifting back to sleep

when I realized what I had said. I pressed my speed dial and soon heard Michael's laughter on

the other line. "I meant WRONG NUMBER. I was-dreaming, I wasn't even awake!" Michael

was still laughing when he finally said, "That's alright, Syd, I wanted to come over today."

"Do you have off too?"

"Yeah, and believe me, Kendall is NOT easy to persuade!"

"How about noon?"

"Okay, I'll be there!"

"Michael..."

"Yeah?"

"I love you."

"I love you too."

I hung up the phone and smiled, this is going to be a great day, I thought to myself. I took a

shower, and had breakfast, (which consisted of some honey toast and grape juice.) Then, I

started to straighten up the place, and I watched T.V. It was half past noon when Michael rang

the doorbell. I opened the door and gasped when I saw him standing there with a bouqet of red

roses. I smiled, blushing a little, as I told him to come in.

"Well, good, I thought you were going to leave me out here forever!"

I laughed and he walked inside and sat on my couch. He gave me the roses and I put them in a

vase. Then he handed me a box of chocolate covered cherries. I thought that was all, so I went

back into my room and picked up his present. He opened it, and smiled as he saw 2 tickets to

an L.A. Kings hockey game. And a box of assorted chocolates. "Happy Valentines Day!"

He smiled and kissed me. "You remembered our hockey date, postpones since last year!"

I smiled and we kissed some more. I was just getting comfortable, when Michael stopped

suddenly and told me that he had one more present for me. He rumaged in his bag, and pulled

out a small red velvet case. I widened my eyes in surprise. Then, VAUGHN GOT DOWN ON

ONE KNEE. He opened the box, revealing a diomond ring. "Syd, I love you, I want to be with

you for the rest of my life." He took a deep breath, and I could tell he was nervous. "Sydney

Bristow, will you marry me?"









CHAPTER 2 I stared at him in disbelief. I stood up, but my knees were shaking so badly that I had to

sit back down. I took a deep breath, my palms were sweating.

"I know it's kind of sudden and all, but Syd, seriously, I know I'll always feel this way about you.

"What happened to the hockey game we were supposed to go to." "Hockey can wait, I love you."

"Hockey can wait, where have I heard that before?" Michael laughed.

"Michael, I love you..and I always will too. It's just that..."

"Please..Syd, I'll regret this for the rest of my life if you say no."

I stared at him. His sparkling eyes, his beautiful smile, his strong body, how could I say

no? I just wasn't ready for it, but, like Michael had said, I too, would regret it if I said no.

"Michael, Will I marry you? Of course I will! Yes, yes I'll marry you!"

He smiled the biggest smile I've ever seen in my entire life. I thought his cheeks were

going to crack. We kissed for five minutes straight. Then suddenly someone knocked on the door. I opened it, and saw Fran standing there with the strangest look on her face. "Guess what," I said. "What?" "Michael asked me to marry him, and I said yes, we're getting married!"

"You-you're getting married?"

"Yes..I started to cry, and Michael came over and put his arm around me. He put the

ring on my finger. The diamond was sparkling and I could tell that was no cheap ring.

"Congradulations, I guess." Fran stated then quickly walked away.

"What's wrong with her?" Michael whispered.

"I haven't the slightest idea." I looked up at my future husband and smiled. "Happy Valentine's Day!"

"Oh, we can still go to that hockey game if you want to!"

"Sure!"

AT THE GAME

"Wow, these seats are perfect, how did you get them?"

"Trust me, It wasn't easy, but my dad knew some of the guys that work here and I

managed to get them. The Kings were playing the Phliers and they were winning 2-1. The first

period was just about over. "They're gonna start a fight soon." Just then, two men started

going at eachother with punches and body slams.

"How did you know that?" Michael smiled in disbelief.

"Trust me..too much time in the CIA to know all this stuff."

Michael kissed me and jumped up for joy as the Kings player won the fight.

BEEEEP. The buzzer rang for the end of the first period. We went to go get some

popcorn. When we came back the second quarter was just starting. Suddenly the puck flew

up into the crowds seat across from us. I looked up at the moniter to see who who would get

the puck (since there weren't any nets around there) and that's when I saw her. I jumped,

spilling half of my popcorn.

"What's the matter?!"

"Michael..Francie, she's over there, and-she's watching us! She has binoculars!"

"Oh my god, Syd..look who's to the left of her."

"I glanced to the left and saw a guy in a disguise. But I couldn't quite make out who it

was. "Who is it?"

"Doesn't it look likeWill in a disguise?"

"No, it doesn't look at all like Will, but it's somebody."

"Don't stare, pretend you didn't notice them."

"Michael, I jumped, they had to have seen it."

I looked back, and they were gone. "Michael, they're gone!"

"No, they're right there," he pointed down to a camera guy, and once again there faces were on the big moniter.

I looked very closely at the guy in disguise, but I still couldn't make out who it was.

Then the announcer said, "Hi there, sir, won't you take off that mask, so we can see who our

lucky winner to our free-ticket giveaway is?"

Slowly and surely the guy took off his mask. Michael gasped in horror as we both saw

who it was. That's the last thing I saw, because when I saw who it was, I fainted.
