Chapter 15: Outlooks and a Mission Plan

The food they ordered from room service didn't take long to arrive. Sydney and Vaughn both sat down on the couch and ate their lunches. They mostly stayed silent with nothing to say. Neither was looking forward to the party that night but there were no choices involved.

After they finished Sydney went to take a shower while Vaughn offered to clean up the food mess. They would talk about the mission after they were both refreshed and cleaned up.

Sydney decided on a bath for herself. She ran the hot water to fill the large Jacuzzi type tub. It felt so good just to relax in a nice bath, it couldn't get much better except of course if it was with Vaughn. Sydney smiled at how dependant she's become on him. She's always been able to survive on her own, but now..now things were changing. Without Vaughn she felt like a part of her was missing. She needed him, and the prospect of needing him so much scared her. Being so dependant is a weakness in her line of work. Sydney quickly finished her bath and got changed.

Sydney picked out some comfy clothes. She grabbed a pair of flannel shorts and a white tank top. Sydney combed out her hair but left it down to dry on its own. She picked up her clothes that were on the floor and went back out to the room so Vaughn could have his turn.

Vaughn was rummaging through his suitcase and pulling out the mission debriefs info and gadgets and things. He had placed them all on the bed beside him. I walked over and put my bag on the floor beside his. "Bathroom's yours." Sydney said with a smile.

"Thanks. Hey um, I was just pulling out the mission stuff so you could start looking over the specs if you want and we'll go over it after I freshen up." Sydney nodded in agreement. Vaughn smiled and kissed her before he went to take his shower.

Sydney plopped down on the bed to begin reviewing the mission specs. Vaughn started the water for his hot shower. He just let the water trickle down his head and face, over his full body from head to toe for a few minutes. He just closed his eyes and enjoyed the warm feeling.

Thoughts rushed through his head. He was having the best days of his life, with the woman he loves, but he couldn't fully enjoy it because he could see the end of it from the beginning. She's so amazing and it's great to be close with her and he didn't want to give that up when they returned home to being agent Vaughn and his asset agent Sydney Bristow. He could tell this topic was on Sydney's mind too. She would act like it didn't bother her but he knew deep down that she was worried about going back and them having to be under protocol again. She had told him a little but quickly put her tough girl act back on. Technically they still were under protocol now but they could say they were just playing their aliases.

After just these few days Vaughn knew, he needed to wake up every morning with this woman in his arms, beside him. He needed to be able to spend everyday with this woman, telling her he loved her, but could he have what he needed? Was this even possible or was this just a dream that would never become reality? He didn't know if he could handle this. He's never been as happy as he is when he's with Sydney. She's so astonishing and he isn't sure if he can give her up.

Vaughn reached out and turned the water to cold. He needed to be brought back from his thoughts and this would help. After a few moments he turned the water off and shook his head, which shot water from his hair in all directions. He opened the shower and grabbed a towel to dry himself off. He did so and then threw on a pair of sweatpants. He took the towel and dried his hair a bit, not bothering to comb it though, only to run his fingers through it.

Vaughn tidied up the bathroom and then went back into the bedroom. He found Sydney lying on her stomach looking through the mission specs. She looked up when she heard him enter. Their eyes met and they both smiled. "This isn't going to work!" Sydney said with a smile. At first Vaughn was confused as to what Sydney was speaking about, wrinkles began to form on his forehead. Sydney soon elaborated though and the wrinkles disappeared, "You can't stay shirtless like that. Your still ten feet away and already I'm being distracted by you." Sydney said looking back down at the specs.

Vaughn couldn't help but laugh. He walked over and sat on the bed beside her and just stared at her beautiful figure. Sydney tried to ignore him but couldn't and she gave in. She sat up beside him. "Stop that!" Sydney demanded while playfully hitting Vaughn's arm, "Just help, and read some of these." Sydney said as she turned her head to pick up some papers. She turned back to hand them to Vaughn but instead she was greeted by Vaughn's lips. Sydney didn't mind though and she quickly threw the papers towards the end of the bed and wrapped her arms around Vaughn's neck.

After a few minutes they were both out of breathe and their lungs were burning in need of oxygen so reluctantly they broke apart. Each rested their forehead on the others. Their faces were only cm. away from each other. Their hearts were both beating quickly and they were out of breath. Sydney smiled, "I told you you'd distract me."

Vaughn returned the smile, "It wasn't my fault."

Sydney kissed him once more, this time just a quick peck on the lips, "Bull shit! Your just too damn cute for your own good." Sydney said while pushing him away. Vaughn laughed, "If you weren't so attractive yourself Missy, my mind wouldn't be thinking these dirty things I'm thinking."

Sydney had resumed her previous position, belly down, on the bed. "Just remember that tonight." Sydney said seductively. Vaughn lay beside her and quickly kissed her cheek, "I will, but I'm afraid we're flying tonight so it may have to wait." Sydney forgot, they had to fly to France late that night; actually it was for early Saturday morning.

"I can wait." Sydney said.

"Good!" Vaughn said with a smile. He wanted to kiss her again but knew if he did he may not stop. Rather he turned his attention to the mission specs, "So what do we got here?" Vaughn motioned towards the papers everywhere.

Sydney and Vaughn began to look over the mission specs. The party was to begin at 8:00 and go late into the night. They were to socialize early in the evening and just basically enjoy the party. Later they would have to find away to distract Mr. Sync and get the document.

"Ok, well he thinks we are interested in the house's decoration from the late 1800's, right?" Sydney asked. Vaughn nodded for her to continue. "Well, then later in the evening have him show me around the house. It says here," Sydney said as she shuffled some papers and found the one she wanted, "the safe is behind a picture directly behind Mr. Sync's desk on the second floor, 3rd door on the left in the west wing."

Vaughn looked a little confused, "Ok, but I doubt he will show you his office. And with all the extra security, I just don't know." Sydney's head popped up and her eyes got wide, "I got it! These taps," Sydney pulled out the audio and video taps Weiss had given us to plant, "will let us know where security is and I'm sure I could get him to show me his office for privacy and all. I'll knock him out and then use the safe scrambler to open it." Sydney said.

"Ok, that'd work but I don't have a viewer for the taps, only base ops does. Why don't we call your dad and get him to get Kendall's approval for this plan, then we'll be able to have your dad keep us updated on the security from the taps." Vaughn said.

"I'll stay downstairs in the party area and keep you updated from down there incase something goes wrong." Vaughn assured her.

Sydney dug out her cell phone then and dialed her dad's number. The landlines weren't safe from taps so this was the best way. Vaughn watched for her reactions and they all seemed good so he assumed they got what they needed. Sydney hung up her cell and went back over beside Vaughn. "He's going to clear it with Kendall but he said it'll be fine and he'll make contact at 9:30."

Vaughn nodded at his agreement with this plan. He didn't know though, the plan sounded good but he had a gut feeling that this wasn't going to go this smooth. Sydney smiled back and then started to pick up the papers and Vaughn helped.

It had gotten late and their night was getting closer and closer. They'd both been on far more dangerous missions but for some reason they both felt more uncomfortable with this one, maybe because this time they both had more to loose!

*Ok, how was that? Let me know. Promise action is coming up soon with their mission! Thanks again for your reviews!
