Sydney rolled over in bed.  The last thing she wanted was to wake up to the sound of her beeping alarm clock, as she did. The alarm clock wasn't the problem.  It was the getting up part.  She no longer had any reason to get up anymore.  Fumbling, she found her alarm clock, and screaming, threw it across the room.  It hit the wall and shattered.  She pulled the covers over her head, and began to silently weep. 

The weeping had become a daily thing for her.  Alarm goes off, cry some, go back to sleep, work call, get up, shower, cry, get dressed, cry, work, come home to an empty apartment, cry again, and would mope around the house until she finally cried herself to sleep.  It was a wonder she had any tears left to cry. Will seemed to be the only one that noticed.  She felt like he was the only one who had even cared that her life had spiraled downward in the past three months.

He couldn't blame her.  Two years were missing.  Two years out of Sydney's life were gone, and she had no recollection of what had happened to her.  She just was.  Everyone else had moved on, figuring that Sydney was dead.  But she wasn't, and no one knows where she was, or who she was with.  But it was two years.  Vaughn had moved on.  That one was the most painful one.  That was the reason for her crying.  In just two years, he had lost her, gotten over her, dated, and then got married.  Every breath hurt, knowing that Vaughn no longer loved her.  In two years.  Sydney was barely beginning to date two years after Danny.  It was around two years after Danny's death that she and Vaughn had started dating.  That was four years ago that Danny died. 

She waited for Weiss to call.  He would always call about 20 minutes before she had to be at work, to minimize her tardiness.  She would still be almost 45 minutes late, but it was better than the 90 minutes that she had been before he started to call.  Vaughn used to be the one that would call her before work.  But it became painful to talk to him.  She told him only a week or so after she got back.  They haven't spoken to each other, unless they had to since.  She missed the sound of his voice.  She loathed the sound of his voice. 

He used to be the reason she would get up in the morning.  Even when they weren't together.  There was always a glimmer of hope.  But no longer.  Not since, it was painful to think about it, not since he had gotten married, to of all people Alice.  Didn't he say that they were over long before they were over?  And now they were married.  Sydney would give anything for his warm embrace, his loving kisses, his smile that would make her weak in the knees, and most importantly, his love for her.  Anything.
