A Facade
Vaughn carefully hands the baby back to Sydney and she hugs him, her breath coming back to her. He studies her bruised cheek.
"I'm sorry I hit you" he says gently
Sydney doesn't reply, her attention on baby Julian. At her silence, he clears his throat.
"Well, this place is a mess. No place for a kid, why don't I clean up?"
He's going to pretend nothing happened.
The night finally takes over the day, she is wracked with guilt.
The old Vaughn is gone and its her fault.
He's perfectly happy to act like nothing has happened.
She can't.
A/N: Alias is truly over sob, I will definitely miss it and the cast were wonderful. Here's the second part of the double update and make sure you review both chapters ; )
Enjoy.
