Sydney stood looking out at the ocean from the balcony at her and Vaughn's hotel room. "You ok sweetie?" Vaughn asked, gently kissing her neck.
"Yeah. It's so beautiful out here. You know, I never thought we would actually ever get here."
"No faith in me?"
"No. It was never you. I never had faith in me."
"I'm going to go downstairs, and make some reservations for us at the restaurant tonight. Ok?" Vaughn said.
"Ok. I'll be waiting here for you."
"Good." Vaughn left the room. With a moment to herself, Sydney quickly reached for the phone book. She quickly flipped through the pages, fingering the list of names, until she came across the last name she was looking for. Sark. There was multiple listings for Sark, but Julie wasn't one of them. It didn't matter. The odds of Julie Sark living in Santa Barbra was very slim. She left a quick note for Vaughn telling him that she went down to the business center. She got on the complementary computer, and pulled up a search engine. She carefully typed each letter. J-u-l-i-e- S-a-r-k. A small list of hits came up. She smiled, at the picture. The resemblance to her brother was uncanny.
On her way back to the hotel room, Sydney stopped by the gift shop, and bought a postcard. She borrowed a pen, and scribbled two words. It worked. She addressed it, and then had the people at the front desk mail it for her. Sark kept up his end of the bargain, so she did as well.
"Hey, I was looking for you." Vaughn said, as they passed the pool.
"I told you where I was."
"I know. I just missed you." He sweetly said.
Sydney kissed him passionately. "I missed you so much more." She said.
She smiled. And took Vaughn's hand. "You're doing it again."
"Doing what?"
"That smiling, staring off into space thing. Are you ok?"
"I am just perfect Vaughn. I am with you, and everything worked out. I am perfect."
"What are you talking about?"
"I am talking about how perfect I am."
"Ok."
"Come on, let's go to the beach." Sydney said, grabbing Vaughn and running to the soft sand.
Fin.
