Chapter 2: There is Hope Yet.

Disclaimer: I still own nothing except my ideas.

I opened the door. He was standing there. I told him to come in, what else was I supposed to do? As he took off his coat I wiped my eyes.

She was so upset when she opened the door I couldn't plan what I said to her. I just had to tell her. "Sydney are you okay?" I knew the answer, of course, she was not okay. She couldn't stop crying. I wanted to hold her. " Sydney, let me explain."

He asked me if I was okay. How could I be okay? He betrayed me! He said he wanted to explain. What was he going to say? I'm sorry Sydney, I broke your heart, and I love Alice, bye. "Vaughn I told you I don't want to hear it." " Sydney I don't care I need you to hear it." I was shocked at his response, usually he just would have hugged me, but then again now it was different, now I knew about his secret, his Alice.

I was surprised she still didn't want to hear what I had to say, what surprised me even more was my response. " Sydney please," I said. "Alice and I broke up Sydney, when we saw each other at a friend's house it was a disaster. I think she introduced herself as my girlfriend because she still cares for me and wanted to be my girlfriend when I was dying."

Everything I could possibly imagine was coming true. and so fast. He was telling me that Alice wasn't his girlfriend, and that me, Sydney, still had a chance. My gosh the man had almost begged her to listen. Maybe today isn't so bad after all. Maybe it would even be wonderful. Maybe he did love me. but maybe he didn't, he didn't say he did. This was good though. I still have one question for him though.

"What are you thinking about Syd?"





A/N: I know very short but otherwise it would have gone on a while and I want to get this up. I have a question for anyone who reads. do you like Shakespeare? The way I have some of this next chapter worded it is pretty Shakespeareish. I can change it I think so please R/R.
