Vaughn shifted and I awoke, letting out a big yawn. My eyes fluttered open
and I saw between the cracks that there was an amazing orange sunset
outside. Then it hit me. I had been gone for god knows how long and I
hadn't been back for Thanksgiving and I hadn't contacted Francie or Will or
even Sloane. I shot up, searching my pockets. I then remembered that I
didn't have my cell anymore. By this time Vaughn had awoken and his eyes
were questioning me.
"Give me your cell phone." I ordered. He dug through his pockets and handed over the silver phone. I punched in my home number and waited 2 rings before the shaking voice of Francie came over. "Francie OMG I am solo sorry."
"SYD!! Is that really you?" she practically screamed.
"Yes Francie, its me, I am soo sorry I haven't contacted you." I said coming up with something quick. "There was a hold up at the bank I was at and I was in it. How long has it been?" I asked
"Almost 4 days Sydney, are you okay?" she said exhaling.
"I'm fine, then I ran into an old friend and I stayed with him last night." At this Vaughn winked at me and I blushed.
"You can't know how worried we were, Will hasn't slept, he's trying to dig out where you went."
"Oh Francie, when I escaped I was told not to alert anybody about this whole hold up thing, so please just tell will that I am an uncaring bitch and I ran into an old lover okay? Please do that for me?" I said
"Okay Syd, where are you?"
"Deception Pass State Park" I replied.
"I LOVE that place, oh can Will and I come visit you, please? Or.will we be intruding upon something?" I detected a slight mischievous tone in her voice.
"Francie you really shouldn't." I said, she sighed at the other end of the line.
"Okay Syd, when are you going to be home?"
"I don't know, probably in a couple of days."
"Okay Syd, I am just sooo glad that your okay."
"I am really sorry about all this, sweetie, I'll talk to you soon okay?"
"Okay Hun, see you or talk to you then. Have you done it with him yet?" She said and I gasped
"Francie! Well yeah I did." It was her turn to gasp.
"Okay Syd, I have to meet him sometime, bye."
"Bye France." I said and hung up. Vaughn smiled at me.
"Syd, we have to call your dad, tell him what happened. I sighed; I wasn't looking forward to talking to my father.
"Okay." I said, and dialed my father's number. It picked up almost immediately.
"Hello?" My dad sounded tired but it was covered by the usual business.
"Dad, its me." I heard him take in a sharp intake of breath.
"Sydney, where the hell have you been? There is search teams and-" I cut him off.
"Dad I found Vaughn." I said and I heard him tell someone in the back round who it was and what I said about Vaughn.
"Agent Vaughn? He's alive?" he said
"Yes, Mo-Irena had him."
"Where are you?" he said
"In Washington State, but you cant come for me, I'm planning on coming home in 2 days."
"Sydney you don't have a choice when you get home, Sloane has been suspicious and, you have to come home Sydney."
"No Dad, please just let me come home in 2 days okay?" I said desperately and I heard him sigh.
"Sydney, I trust your judgment, but you really should come home now. I wont come for you but I expect you to be home in 2 days no later." I smiled and sighed with relief.
"Thanks daddy, I'll be home in 2 days, no later, I'm sorry for worrying everybody." I hung up the phone and handed it back to Vaughn.
"Where are we going to stay tonight?" I said to him and I lay back down beside him. He drew me to him and I rolled so I was lying on top of him, my head just below his chin. "Well I'm not complaining about the car last night but it would be better to sleep in a bed. There's a hotel in Gray's Harbor we can get there by 9 tonight. Is that alright?" he said. I kissed him in response and we headed to the car.
A/N: Sorry about this chapter, I just had to bring in her dad and Francie cuz they must have been worried sick! The next chapter will include appearances by Francie, Will, and Sark. And don't worry, I'm not about to turn S/S or S/W I hate Will too much and Sark is cute but we all know that Sydney belongs with Vaughn. Last time I only got 2 reviews! Please review or I'll kill off Vaughn and never write again!
