Hey guys, these next couple of chapters are probably going 2 b short, idk tho, I'm kinda winging it. And sorry if there are simple spelling/grammar mistakes, I am writing these at lik 11pm in my spare time!

Ch. 3 Screw Rules

            Why am I here? I can't break protocol! Rules are rules, that's final! Vaughn thought, What the hell am I thinking? Screw the rules! He couldn't understand why he was arguing with himself about this, if it were Eric he was talking to, things would be a little different, but he was talking, or thinking rather, to himself. Vaughn knew why he was there. He was there, at the party, on purpose for one reason… he loved her. That was the truth. Michael Vaughn loved Sydney Bristow.

            Vaughn just stood there in the corner of the restaurant basking in Sydney's beauty for what seemed like hours, but in fact had only been about twenty minutes. He tried to be nonchalant about staring at her, but it didn't work.Every other guy in the room was either sitting in a group laughing up a storm drinking beer, or trying to hook up with someone while he just stood there. Alone.

            About five minutes after Francie had mentioned 'the hottie at 1 o'clock' the two decided to get some stuff to munch on. "I wonder why he's standing all alone?" Francie asked, when they got back to their original seats.

            "Being that hot? I'd say he's waiting for his girl friend." Sydney said as she polished of her chardonnay.

            "You're probably—Hey, wait, how do you know how hot he is, you haven't seen him." Francie questioned

            "Alright, you caught me. I've been staring at his reflection in that mirror for awhile now." Sydney confessed as she slyly pointed as the mirror.

Sydney's movement didn't go unnoticed by Vaughn though. He saw the mirror, and instantly realized that he had been caught mid-stare, so he decided to walk over. "Hi, I couldn't help but notice you from across the room, and I was wondering if you could care to join me?" Vaughn said very politly, as he motioned toward the floor. Sydney just flashed him a sexy smile, and took his out stretched hand.

~#~ Hey guys! Sry I told you that these next few would be short! Sorry! But if you review a lot I'll make them longer (the more reviews, the longer the chapters and the more romance)
