Chapter 3: The Meet and Greet
Francie sent me into the bathroom to fix my hair up. I decided to keep it down so I brushed and styled it quickly. I applied some quick mascara, some blush on my cheeks, and some lipstick.
I scurried back into my bedroom to find Francie holding an outfit out and still searching for some shoes. "Here Syd, wear this!" Francie said as she tossed me the outfit. I gave it a quick glance; it was a short denim skirt with a pale pink pheasant top. I figured it was a good medium. Francie wanted me to wear something eloquent but I know that we are only going to his house so that wouldn't be appropriate.
"Thanks." I say as I discard my robe to the ground and throw the top over my head, careful not to mess my hair. I then slip the denim skirt on. Suddenly, my head jeers up when I hear a knock at the door. I freeze for a moment and I start to feel myself getting tense and nervous. "Will can you get that for me? I'll be right out." I yell out the room.
I can hear Will make his way to the door and greet Vaughn. I can hear chatter but it's to soft and far away for me to understand. Francie quickly snaps me back into reality. "Sydney, try these shoes on." She says as she toes me a pair of oak brown, open-toed sandals.
I slip the shoes on. Personally, I don't like these because they hurt my feet a lot when I walk a lot in them, but right now I'm in too much of a hurry to worry about the small detail. "These work, thanks Fran."
I quickly scurry over to my nightstand and I open up my jewelry box. I shuffle some things around until I find the matching seashell necklace and bracelet I'd been looking for. As I clasp the bracelet on my wrist, Francie helps clasp the chocker necklace on me.
Finally, I'm ready. Francie and I both just pause and rest from our frantic run-around. Francie grabs my shoulders and gives me a little pet talk. "Okay, just relax Syd. You look great! Just stay calm and enjoy yourself tonight. God knows you deserve it!" She says as she pulls me into a hug.
Just then I hear Will, "Syd, Vaughn's here!"
I smile; as if I didn't know. Francie releases me from the hug, "Now go and just enjoy yourself." I start to walk towards the door, "Thanks a bunch Fran." I say back to her. Just when I open the door I realize I forgot to pack my overnight bag.
I slam the door back shut and turn frantically to Francie. My mouth is gapping open and she notices. Francie just smiles, "Thinking of this?" She asks as she tosses me a fully packed duffle bag. "I figured you wouldn't have time so I threw in some stuff you'll need."
I smile thankfully, "Thank you Fran, I owe you big time." I am so happy she did pack it for me yet I had the urge to take a minute to check what she packed me. She's trying to push me with Vaughn so who knows what kind of clothes she packed.
"Yah you do!" She retorts back. I don't respond though because I'm already out the bedroom door without another thought.
I walk down the hall and into the main room. I see Vaughn and Will both talking by the kitchen bar top with beers in hand. As I enter both heads turn my way. I can see them both look me up and down. I smile, more towards the ground than to them, and I blush slightly at their stares.
Eventually I do look back up to them. Vaughn put his beer down and walks around the counter towards me. He reaches me and he takes my hands in his and twirls me, "Wow you look great!" He compliments me with his mouth gaped open. I smile and let out a short laugh.
"Thanks." I smile at him. We both just stand there in silence looking at each other until Will reminds us of his presence when he clears his throat. I look over Vaughn's shoulder to Will and Vaughn turns to face him too.
"So what are you two crazy cats up to tonight?" Will asks.
Vaughn moves close to me and wraps his arm around my midriff and I lean into him. "We don't really know, just hang out probably; pizza and a movie." Vaughn says to Will but doesn't once take his eyes off of me. I nod in agreement and smile as I start to picture the great night in store for us.
"Well have fun." Will says lifting his beer our way, before he walks out towards Francie's room to find her.
Vaughn and I were finally alone once again. Vaughn turns back to me and wraps his arms tightly around my waist, pulling me close to him. I reach my arms up around his neck and start to play with the ends of his silky, blond hair. He leans in and kisses me tenderly. We just stand there together kissing for a while.
Eventually we run out of breath and we break apart. "What happened to the sweats I told you to throw on?" He teases.
I smile, "Yeah and I'm sure I would have gotten the same reaction." I tease back as I lean in for another quick peck on his lips.
"Syd, you'll get this reaction every time I see you." He says earnestly as he leans in for another kiss, but this time I pull away. "What?" he says confused.
I smile and lean in giving him a quick reassuring hug. I pull back and pick up my bag and purse, "I just don't want to start something we can't finish." I explain softly as I start towards the door. Vaughn grabs my arm to stop me. He smiles in agreement, and then he takes my duffle bag for me, "let me get that for you."
He puts my duffle bag over his shoulder and then takes his free hand and grasps mine in it. He opens the door for me and we both step outside. "So how shall we start this splendid evening Ms. Bristow?" Vaughn asks as we both get into his car and drive off.
Suddenly I become not so opinionated. I could careless what we do as long as we are together. It's funny, whenever we are together I forget about everything else in my life, all my problems and stress. Vaughn replaces those unpleasantrees with happiness. Whenever I'm with him I feel like we're the only people in the world and that nothing can go wrong. I feel powerless in his presence; I'd do anything for him. In a way it's a scary thought but I'm not scared because I have his hand guiding me through it. Is this what love feels like?
***Sorry I know this chapter is a little short but I hope it's still enjoyable. Let me know how you liked it, and I'll make sure to post more soon.
