Ch. 4 Just Michael

            "I guess you caught me." Vaughn said with a smile.

            "And you say that you work for the CIA." Sydney joked in return. Vaughn just laughed. "Not that I mind, but what are you doing here? What if someone sees us? You could get replaced and I could be put on probation." Sydney was just rambling on and on with out taking notice to the fact that she was already started to dance.

            "Syd!" Vaughn said, making Sydney stop talking. "Calm down! Number 1, so what if someone sees us. As far as anyone else is concerned, we are just two people who happened to meet at a party. And I don't that that Devlin is stupid enough to replace me with Lambert again." Sydney just laughed and moved in closer to Vaughn. In fact, it was so crowded that Sydney was pressed right up against him, not that either of them minded.

            After the two had been dancing for a while, a slow song came on and some people dispersed from the floor and couples paired up. Of course, Sydney and Vaughn decided that they would dance together, to make it look like they had just met, for showoff course, or at least that's what they kept telling themselves. "Vaughn I just" Sydney started to say into his ear, but was cut off.

            "Syd, it's Michael tonight. You're not freelancer or Agent Bristow and I'm not Vaughn." Sydney liked the sound of his soft huskey voice in her ear, so she let him continue. "We're just two people dancing." He could feel Sydney smile into his shoulder as her rest her head. It seemed so perfect. Everything. The way her head fit perfectly in the nitch of his neck. The sound of At last Playing in the back round as the lights dimmed. It seemed like a scene out of a Meg Ryan movie.

            "I like that." She replied. The two became closer together as they swayed to the melody.

            At the end of the song, Sydney removed her head from Vaughn's shoulder, but staying in his grasp, as he kept his hands o her hips. The two just stared into each other's eyes for what seemed like an eternity. Slowly Vaughn lowered his head, and his lips gently grazed Sydney's. Not truly a kiss, but enough to send sparks flying. Sydney simply replied with a sweet yet passionate kiss. "Can we leave yet?"
