A/N: I'M BAAAAACK!! Haha I know you missed me! Anyway, like I promised, this is the sequel to 'Breathing Again'. It's kind of a slow start but bear with me and it will get better! Oh and the song is 'Here Without You' by The Byrds (not 3 Doors Down!) Thanks for all the reviews on BA and hopefully you'll keep reading!!

*If you haven't, you might want to read 'Breathing Again' to catch up on what's happening, otherwise it might get kind of confusing! *

~What Now~

~Chapter 1: Not Giving Up~

//// \\\\

*6 months later*

She ignored his e-mails for 6 months. She didn't sleep at night and she lived on coffee. Vaughn had quit the CIA months before and had disappeared. The only thing Sydney missed about him was the work he did. On the other hand, she missed everything about Sark. Those ice blue eyes, the way he always ran his hand through his hair when he was thinking, and that special smile he seemed to always save for her.

Meanwhile there were no new leads on Adrienne. Kendall was sending her on fewer missions and giving her more time to search for her daughter. Sydney hadn't known that Kendall had anything nice in him. But it didn't even matter because they found nothing. Nothing about David Sark or Adrienne. And it was depressing to Sydney. Life without Adrienne and Aidan was tearing her apart.

*Daytime just makes me feel lonely

At night I can only dream about you

Boy you're on my mind

Nearly all of the time

It's so hard being here without you

Words in my head keep repeating

Things that you said when I was with you.

And I wonder is it true

Do you feel the same way too

It's so hard being here without you

Being here without you

Oh I know this won't last

I'll see you someday

It seems as though that day will come never

But there's one thing I'll swear

Though you're far away

I'll be thinking about you forever

Streets that I walk on depress me

Ones that were happy when I was with you

Still with all the friends I know

And with all the things I do

It's so hard being here without you

Being here without you. *

After another week Sydney couldn't stand it anymore. She needed to know where Aidan's father was, which would hopefully lead her to her daughter.
