Disclaimer: I obviously don't own anything to do with Alias. Except for
Season 1 on DVD and a couple of the prequel books.
A/N: New chapter! Spanish is really boring and I had time to write this so you're just lucky! Thanks for all the reviews. 2 so far! Anyway, the song I used is 'Numb' by Linkin Park and I don't own that either. Duh.
~Breathing Again~ ~Chapter 6: Numb~
Sydney stayed home from work for 3 days. She just couldn't deal with facing Sark, even though he had no idea who Irina Derevko was, or her daughter, SB. But Sydney knew. And she didn't want to know. Irina Derevko was her mother, who had supposedly died when she was very young. The fact that she was alive was a huge shock in itself, but the fact that Sark's father planned to kidnap her (Sydney) added to that shock.
As soon as Sydney had gotten home she had called her father to tell him to get the CIA to add to the security assigned to her. She also had him watch Adrienne more carefully just in case they figured out that she also had a daughter. The only 2 people she talked to in those 3 days were her father and daughter. Vaughn never answered his cell when she tried to call him.
Then on Thursday Sydney's CIA issue cell phone rang. She looked at the caller ID. Vaughn.
"Hey Vaughn."
"Sydney, hey. I heard from your dad about what's going on. Listen, I think you should maybe get out of there now."
*I'm tired of being what you want me to be.
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface*
"Vaughn are you kidding me? Why the hell would you even think about pulling me out of this mission?"
*Don't know what you're expecting from me.
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes*
"Sydney it's just too dangerous."
*Every step that I take is just another mistake to you*
"Are you suggesting that I can't take care of myself? No I just think that you're being selfish Vaughn."
*I've become so numb I can't feel you there.
I've become so tired so much more aware.
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you*
"SELFISH? Ha!" There was a pause.
*Can't you see that you're smothering
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control*
"Vaughn?"
*Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen right in front of you*
Sydney heard a woman's voice in the background.
"Honey bun who are you talking to?"
"Alice? Not now sweetie it's not the time."
Sydney almost laughed. She should've seen this coming.
*Every step that I take is just another mistake to you
And every second I waste is more than I can take*
"OK Vaughn well since you've gone back to Alice I'll just get it over with and say this-"
*I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you*
"We're over. Bye Michael. I'll see you around."
She hung up before he could say anything back.
*And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you*
Sydney needed a run. She grabbed her Walkman off her dresser and her apartment key off the table in the hall.
*I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you.*
A piece of unopened mail caught her eye. She quickly ripped it open.
~Annual Staff Party~ ~All Are Welcome~ ~8-Midnight~ ~This Friday~ ~121 W. St.~ ~Dress Fancy~ ~See you there!~
*I've become so numb I can't feel you there.
Is everything what you want me to be?*
Sydney smiled. After all, girls have got to have fun.
*I've become so numb I can't feel you there.
Is everything what you want me to be?*
TBC.??
