A/N: Hey, everyone! Sorry I took so long to update, I lost all of my story stuff and I had to retype this chapter. I was almost done with it already and my floppy decided not to work for me anymore. Well, anyway, here's the next chapter! Thank you to all of you who reviewed my story, I really appreciate it. So please keep them coming!

"Sydney, why haven't you called?" asked Vaughn. "We haven't heard from you for a while. So have you gotten in yet?"

"No, I don't think so. I'll ask Sark. I'm sorry for not calling sooner. I just got busy and everything," said Sydney as she sat in the bathroom that came with her room. She had gone in there for some privacy. It was the next morning since the dinner with Sark.

"Ok, well, I have to go. Sloane wants us in for a meeting. As soon as you know call me, ok?" Vaughn said.

"Ok, I will. I miss you." Sydney said as she started to think about when he should ask Sark about if she got in or anything yet.

"I miss you too. I love you. Bye."

"I love you too. Bye." She closed her phone and walked out of the bathroom. She opened her door and went downstairs to try and find where Sark was. When she got down there, she went into the parlor where se had been the night before. He wasn't there so she went into the kitchen and walked through the swinging doors that led to the dining room. There she found him already eating his breakfast. He had French toast with hash browns. She went over and sat down next to him.

He looked up and smiled. "Did you have a good night?" He asked as he took another bite.

"Yes, thank you. The bed was very comfortable. I'm surprised I didn't have jet lag or anything." Sydney said as the maid came out and put a plate of food in front of her. "Oh and I was wondering if you've heard anything from the Covenant yet."

"I'm glad you liked it. No I haven't heard anything yet, but I'll call them and let you know. In the meantime, eat your breakfast and as you are getting ready for the day I will call. Ok?" Sark said as he finished the last bite. Sydney nodded. "Well, I'm going to go take a shower. Have a nice breakfast." He got up and left the room leaving Sydney in the room to eat her meal.

When he got upstairs he went into his room and grabbed his phone. He opened it and dialed the number that he was given. The phone rang and was finally answered by a familiar voice that Sark was hoping he wouldn't hear. "Hello, Scott Walker, speaking."

"Hello, Scott, it's Julian Sark. I was just..."

"Ah, hello, Sark. You were calling about Sydney right? Well, just to tell you I have made reservations for us at the Ritz. At noon I would like to meet with her. I was just about to call you to inform you of this, but apparently you got to me first." Scott said as Sark rolled his eyes knowing that he wasn't really going to call until the last minute. He hated Scott Walker.

"Really. Ok. Well, I'll let Sydney know about it." Sark said, as he was about to hang up on him.

"Wait before you hang up, I was wondering if you and Sydney were at all intimate. I mean she's hot and now that she might be with the Covenant I thought maybe she could become one of my 'partners'. You know what I mean." Scott said with a chuckle.

"No... If at all she is accepted into the Covenant then she will be my partner, Scott. There is no way in hell I would let her be with you." Sark said bitterly. God, I hate when he does this. He thinks that every single girl he meets will fall in love with him. Damn, I wish I never knew him. Then I wouldn't have to ever talk to him. I would be so happy then.

"I see, so you're saying that she is with you. Ok, well, see you at noon." Scott said teasingly.

"Goodbye, Scott." Sark hung up the phone and threw it onto the bed-stand. He went into his bathroom and took a shower.

Sydney sat at the table eating gracefully. When she was finished she left the room and started up the stairs. She got to the door when she heard the door next to hers open. She looked and found Sark coming out. He was dressed in his usual silky shirt and pants. From where she was standing she could smell the cologne that he had put on. "Hey, Sark, breakfast was amazing. Like I said before, you have an amazing chef."

"Thanks, but just to let you know, I was the one who actually made the breakfast. I let my chef have a break in the mornings. I always made breakfast for myself." Sark walked over to her.

"Really?" Sark nodded. "Wow, you can cook! Well, it was delicious. Sorry to bug you again, but did you get the chance to call yet?" Sydney asked as she leaned up against her door.

"Yes, actually, I did. We will be meeting with Scott Walker at noon. He made reservations at the Ritz. You know Scott Walker, right?" Sark asked questioningly.

"I've heard of him. Well, I'm going to get ready then. See ya." Sydney opened her door and walked in. She closed it and put her back to it. Wow, I can't believe he actually had made breakfast. I would have never thought that he was actually capable of cooking. I really underestimated him. Oh and those eyes. I can't stop staring into his beautiful blue eyes. They are just so wonderful!

When she was done daydreaming. She walked over to her purse and grabbed her phone. She went into the bathroom and closed the door. She had no need to lock it. She now knew that Sark wouldn't eavesdrop on her. At least she thought.

She dialed the number and on the third ring Eric Weiss answered the phone. "Hello, Eric Weiss speaking."

"Hey, Weiss, it's Sydney. Just called to give an update." Sydney sat down on the sink.

"Oh, hey, Syd. Ok, we've been waiting for your call. So what's up?" Weiss asked.

"Well, at noon Sark and I will be meeting with Scott Walker at the Ritz. There I will find out if I was accepted or not. I better go I told Sark I was going to get ready and I don't really want to take that long. Ok, it was nice talking to you. I'll update after the lunch." Sydney stood up and opened the bathroom door.

"Ok, thanks, bye." Weiss hung up the phone and got up to go Sloane about Sydney's update. He got to the office door and knocked.

"Come in." Sloane said. Weiss opened the door and went over to the desk.

"Sydney called. She will be meeting with a Mr. Scott Walker at the Ritz at noon. She said she would call right afterwards to say if she made it in or not." Weiss said as Sloane finished going through the papers he had on his desk.

"Very good. Thank you for telling me, Weiss. Now if you please I have a lot of paper work to go through." Sloane said as he grabbed another stack of paper. Weiss left the room and went back to his desk.

Sydney finished with her shower and put on a black blouse with a not too short, but not too long skirt. She grabbed some nice shoes and put them on. She brushed her hair. As she was finishing she heard a knock at the door.

"Come in." She said as she put away her things.

Sark opened the door. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah. Just let me get my purse." Sydney grabbed her purse and left the room and closed her door. She followed Sark down the stairs and outside to where the Mercedes was already waiting for them. She got in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt.

They drove in silence. When Sark drove into the parking lot of the Ritz, Sydney finally broke the prolonged silence. "We're here again. I might just have what I had before. How about you?"

"I might get the same too. It's my favorite so I might just stick with it." Sark and Sydney walked into the restaurant and right away spotted Scott Walker sitting at a table.

Sydney took in a deep breath. "Well, here goes nothing."
