Sydney woke up with a start. For a minute she just laid there listening and wondering what had woke her up.
Suddenly she heard it, a woman's shrieks.
Her heart beating fast, she jumped up out of bed, and raced for the door.
A quick glance at the clock confirmed just what she had thought, it was the middle of the night.
Sydney opened the door slowly, and winced when it squeaked.
If someone was out there, she didn't want to alert them that she was coming out.
The woman was quiet now.
Slowly, Sydney crept to the living room where she could here the TV going.
Peeking around the corner into the living room, she saw Paul and Francie sitting on the living room couch.
Paul was this guy that Francie had met at her restaurant opening.
The two of them had been dating ever since.
Sydney had never seen Francie so happy. She was glad Francie had found someone.
Now coming out from behind the corner, Sydney marched into the living room and demanded to know what the shrieking had been about.
Paul started to apologize, but Francie cut him off.
"Paul asked me to marry him!" She squealed in happiness.
A huge grin replaced Sydney's frown. "Oh, Fran." She said as she hurried to hug her best friend. "I'm so happy for both of you."
Paul grinned, and got up to turn the TV off.
Sydney looked at the set, and saw that the movie she had left, to head to bed, during the middle of, was still on.
"Man, that's a long movie." She commented.
Paul looked puzzled for a minute, and then started laughing. "Syd, you only went to bed an hour ago."
Sydney glanced at him in surprise, and then her eye's darted to the clock.
"Wow, you're right. I didn't realize, but anyways Congratulations you two."
Paul and Francie smiled at each other happily.
Suddenly, Sydney noticed the size of the ring that Francie was wearing.
"Wow! That's a rock!" Sydney said, as she grabbed Francie's hand.
Francie giggled, "I know. But it wouldn't matter what size it was. I love him to much to care."
Paul smiled at her. "I love you too honey. But I better get going it's late, and I have to work tomorrow."
Francie stood up and walked him to the door. "Goodnight." She called softly as he headed to his car.
"Goodnight." He replied.
Francie returned to the living room to find Sydney on the sitting on the couch waiting for her.
Francie sighed happily, as she sank down onto the couch beside Sydney.
"We can discuss wedding plans tomorrow Syd. I know that you're tired."
"She has no ideal how tired." Sydney thought. She had just gotten back this morning from a mission. Her flight had been twelve hours long, and that had just been the return flight. She was exhausted.
But she smiled at Fran and said, "Alright, but before I head back to bed I want to know one thing."
Francie looked at her curiously. "What?" she asked.
Sydney regarded her seriously. "Are you sure?"
Francie looked equally serious. "I'm positive."
Sydney sighed in relief, and stood up to head back to bed.
But before she left, she grinned widely and said, "I have one more question."
Francie just lifted her eyebrows and widened her eyes slightly as if to say, Well get on with it.
"Do I get to be the Maid of Honor?"
Francie started laughing. "Of course you do. I wouldn't have it any other way."
They embraced and Sydney headed off to bed with a smile on her face, and a giggle in her throat.
