Sydney kissed Will softly on his lips, but Will pushed her back, "No, this isn't right." Will said softly, "Your upset. I don't want you to do anything you don't want to."
"What do you mean? Don't you like me?" Sydney asked above a whisper. A hurt expression grew on her face.
"I do, a lot. But Sydney you're upset.You don't know what you want," he said softly, "I - I think you should go home." Will said standing up.
"But, Will, I - " she said but Will was quick to interrupt her.
"Syd, just sleep on it okay?" Sydney sat there a moment, then without a word got up and headed for the door. As Soon as Sydney reached her car Will closed the door and rested his forehead against it. Will wanted to continue it, god knows he wanted to continue it but Will's life is a mess right now. He just learned the truth from her and who knows what else she was hiding from her. His life was changing too, Will was changing. It just wasn't a good time for either of them.
Sydney decided to drive home, she just needed a good night's sleep. She stopped by Burger King and got 2 whopper meals. Then headed home, but before Sydney stepped in the house she sat in her car, she didn't want to look so upset. After a few minutes she got up and walked into the house. Amanda sat on the couch watching TV.
"Hey, what took you so long?" She asked with a smile.
"Traffic is terrible at this hour. She told Amanda as she tossed her a bag, there's your whopper."
"Great! Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to go catch a movie tonight or something." Amanda said unwrapping her hamburger.
"Uh, tonight is not really a good night. I have to go back to work tomorrow so I think I'm going to go to bed early. I'm really tired." Sydney lied, she wasn't tired. She just didn't want to go out in public right now.
"Oh, okay," Amanda said in a disappointed voice, "That's okay."
"Thanks," Sydney smiled, "Night." She said and went to her room and closed the door. The Night crawled by slowly. Sydney kept having a repeating dream. She stood in a large white room, on one side of her Vaughn, on the other side Will. She would turn to Vaughn and memories would flash in her head, memories from their meetings in the caged area, the one time she was upset at the pier and he reached over and put his hand on top of hers. The hug, then him in the hall and the water rushing behind him. Sydney would turn her head towards Will and she saw times of them playing board games, watching sappy romance movies together, the kiss he gave her. It felt as if she had to choose between her job and her life at times. But she never chose, she never walked to Will nor Vaughn. She just stood there, in the middle of it all. She woke many times that night with a cold sweat.
The next day finally came and Sydney was off to work at SD-6. She got many Hellos' and Welcome backs. She arrived at her desk but looked at Dixon's empty desk. It had been cleared of its pictures, and personal items. She wasn't suppose to know yet so she acted oblivious to the fact. Soon she was called to a meeting. She sat in her regular spot and looked across the table at Dixon's normal spot, empty. She sighed; maybe this meeting will bring some answers to this. What if Vaughn was right and it was just a normal car crash. It still seemed weird it happened the same night he had followed her to the watering hole. Sloane entered the room and took his usual spot at the end of the table. There was something different about him. He had dark circles under his eyes; he looked as if he hadn't slept in days.
"Good Morning everyone," he said to the table filled with 5 agents, "Good Morning Sydney, I hope you've had an enjoyable vacation," he said, Sydney returned with a smile and a nod. Not wanting to reveal the hell she had been through the past couple days, "I have some bad news." he said shifting his attention to the whole group, "Dixon was found dead this weekend in a small car crash just outside of LA," he stated, hearing small gasps from the group. He shifted through some papers, "For now, I would like to introduce you to our newest agent," suddenly the door opened and a tall man walked in with dark hair, "I would like you to meet Agent Zachary Jenson." The new agent walked up to his new spot, receiving handshakes from most of the agents, but not Sydney. She was careful not to show her feelings. At that moment Sydney wanted to jump on Sloane and rip that fake, evil, sadistic smile off his wrinkled old face, but she withheld herself. Agent Jenson took Dixon's seat, which made Sydney cringe at the sight, and Sloane went on with the meeting, "We've gotten word that 'The Man' is planning to meet with one of his undercover agents this Saturday. They will be exchanging valuable information, we want this information. Agent Jenson and Agent Bristow will fly to San Juan and attend a rave there. In the back of the warehouse, where the rave shall take place, the meeting will be. Find some way to obtain that information and replace with a fake," Sloane told them, he stood up, "Marshall we'll now show you the devices you will use to break into the room." He nodded towards Marshall, and then headed out of the room. Marshall walked to the front of the room.
"Uh Good Morning everyone," he said with a nervous smile, "The first item are these," he said picking up a pair of black glasses, "These can take pictures of the warehouse, your partner, and the, uh, the man." Marshall slipped them on, "H-how do they look on me?" Marshall gave a nervous laugh as no one laughed in return, he then cleared his throat, "Uh next is this," he picked up a cell phone, "Hello?" he said playfully into the device, "uh well this is a laser key. All you do is hit 736 and it will be activated." Sydney stared off to space as Marshall explained his new equipment. Thinking of how why Dixon would be killed. He was no threat, well maybe he was after seeing her at the watering hole, but the CIA would not arrange for him to be killed. After the meeting, Sydney was pulled into the room by her father. He reached into his pocket, without a word, pulled out the usual pen and turned it on.
"Did you have anything to do with this?" Sydney asked in a harsh low voice
"Surprisingly, No." Jack told her, "SD-6 filled out a phony report to fool everyone. They never found Dixon's body, they believe he ran off."
"Why would Dixon run? He has no reason." Sydney said, looking down. Trying to figure this all out in her head, then something clicked, "You don't think .. "
"He was kidnapped? It's a possibility." Jack said, "You need to talk to Agent Vaughn and tell him about the false report."
"I will," Sydney said, thinking about the other day when she yelled at him.
"How's Will and Amanda doing?" he asked with concern in his voice, disrupting Sydney's thinking progress.
"Oh, their fine. Will is doing really well with his training, he's been there almost everyday. Amanda is fitting in just fine." she smiled. Suddenly the pen began to beep signally the end of their little talk.
"We'll talk about it later," he nodded to her and left the room.
- - - - - Mean while, back at Sydney' House - - - - -
"Hey Syd! You won't believe this move they taught me today." Will said walking into her house without knocking, "Syd?" he called into, what seemed to be, an empty house. Amanda walked out of the room clicking off her cell phone. Suspicion grew on Will's face.
"Hey Will. Sydney won't be home till 5:00. They're keeping her later after work." Amanda smiled, Will nodded.
"Oh okay. Then I'll come back later. He said, he almost turned towards the door but stopped, "Say, Amanda, why don't you just use Sydney's phone instead of your cell phone? I mean, it's just a tad bit cheaper and I'm sure Syd won't mind."
"Oh," Amanda said in a nervous voice, "Well I'm calling long distance to a friend back home that's all."
"You mean your mother?"
"How'd you know I was calling my mother?" Amanda asked him.
"I overheard you a couple days ago when I was on the couch." Will said, taking a step towards her. Secretly praying that his lessons would pay off, "What are you planning?"
"Now, Will, that's none of your business." she said, quickly taking the gun she kept behind her and shot Will in the chest. He fell to the ground in a motionless lump, "I was saving that for Syd, but I guess you'll do."
*BTW, have you all been watching ABC lately? They're playing commercials the new season of Alias! I'm so Excited! It's going to be so awesome! Only 28 more days. Anyway, please leave a review, you know how much I love them *
