Title: A lie followed by a secret
Disclaimer: obviously I don't own them. You know that, I know that, ok we all know that.
Rating: PG-13 (I don't think it's that high yet, but later I might use some not so nice words and I just wanted to be on the safe side.)
Review: Any words of wisdom you could bestow upon me to help me improve or if you just like the story would be greatly appreciated. Also reviews help me to post the next chapter. So if you guys like it and want more then I will need reviews to know this. If you give me these then I promise to post another chapter. Ok done now.
Summary: Sydney and Vaughn are having problems. Hopefully they can find a way to work them out.
A/N: Ok this is my first Alias fic. I think there is a possibility that I could have written it better but between work and college life is stressful enough as it is without worrying about every single little detail. However if you guys like it enough I may pay more attention to it and make sure it's up to the best of my abilities. So just let me know what you think. I should be able to post a new chapter daily for at least the first nine chapters. So if you're done reading this now on with the story. Thanks again for reading.

Sydney had just arrived home a few minutes ago and Francie was back from checking in her shipment at the restaurant. Francie saw how upset she looked.
"What's wrong, Syd," she asked knowing chances were good it either concerned work or Kaylie's father.
"Nothing really," Sydney told her hesitating before she continued," I mean we went to the mall and in the store this lady commented on Kaylie's eyes and it just got me thinking....I don't know it's just silly. I shouldn't let things get to me so easily".
"Syd don't sell yourself short," Francie tried reassuring her," you're allowed to get worked up over things as "trivial" as your daughter's father".
"But I've dealt with life threatening stuff on a daily basis for the last eleven years," Sydney said still feeling stupid," why is it that I keep letting this get to me". She looked away from Francie and down at Kaylie half asleep in her arms.
Francie looked at her. She felt horrible for her friend. The poor girl had dealt with so much and adding the father of her child to the list of horrible messes she'd had to deal with shouldn't be happening. She noticed something in Sydney when she spoke of Vaughn though.
"Honey are you sure that there isn't still something between the two of you," Francie asked," I mean I know you said that he was marrying that other girl, but if you two still have all of these unresolved issues and you think there's a possibility of working something out....even the smallest possibility, then I think you should have a talk with him. You've been through a lot in the past decade or so Syd and you deserve some happiness so if there is even the remotest possibility that this man can make you happy then I think that you need to go for it".
Sydney looked at Francie half shocked. This was of course the first time that anyone had ever told her to that she should work things out with Vaughn. Before all she heard from people about Vaughn's and her relationship was that it was on the verge of breaching protocol and they'd better not let it. Yeah, so much for that. They'd done a little more than cross that line when they finally came to it. They'd flown straight over the edge of the cliff that it'd led them to.
Yet Francie's words held some meaning for her. What if there was some slight chance. After all he hadn't married Alice. Maybe his feelings for her weren't so different from hers toward him. If that were true then it meant that she didn't have to feel so alone anymore. They could work things out and be a family. Just the way she pictured them in her dreams. Then reality hit her again. He'd straight up told her he didn't feel that way. He didn't love her and he didn't want to be with her. She didn't know what she'd let come over her. Obviously some wishful thinking on her part.
"No Francie it'll never happen," Sydney said sadly," like I told you before he doesn't want to be with me. I guess that's just something I still need to learn to deal with".
Francie's expression held sympathy as she looked at her best friend holding her baby and how it seemed that the both of them would never get to be a part of the family they both deserved so much.
After a minute of silence Sydney broke it saying," She needs to be changed so I'll be right back". With that said she headed into the nursery. Francie turned to find something in the fridge for a late lunch when she heard a knock at the door.
