Two for Two

A/N: Ok, so this chapter is a whole lot shorter than usual. Plus its unbeta'd. I hope that you still like it though. Life just really is crazy, as much that I hate it is. Right now, I should be doing my homework but I'm doing this instead. Sounds good to me. But, I really didn't want to keep you guys waiting any longer so I hope that you enjoy it. And forgive me for all my mistakes. I really would like to get this story to a second thread. *hinthint*. And if you haven't already, then go vote for Michael in the People poll. He is losing to Johnny Depp. Anyways, thank you so much for reading this. And as always, review!

Two for Two

Chapter 9: What the Heck is Going On?

Sydney's POV- Francie's Old Restaurant

After it feels like we have been driving for hours, Vaughn finally parks the car in a spot.

"We're here."

"And where is here?"

"Do you not recognize this place?"

"No."

"Well then, we had better get out so you can find out where we are."

"Sounds good to me."

The next thing that I know Vaughn is hopping out of the car on his side and running around to open my door for me.

"A true gentleman."

"Of course, my lady."

"God…you are so corny."

"Aww… you know that you love me anyways."

"I surely do."

And I know by the look in his eyes that he realizes that it is true and that I am dead serious when I saw this.

"I love you too. I would also love to stand here with just you and share you with no one else, but I have a feeling that Will and Maggie would not appreciate that."

"Yeah, I doubt that they would."

"So do you recognize this place?"

I realize now that since he has been asking this question repeatedly that I really should know where I am. As I look around him I see a restaurant. The inside being painted red and black and I instantly know where we are.

"It's Francie's old restaurant."

"Yeah it is. Is it ok that we are here?"

"What happened to it? Who took over it?"

"Your father actually oversaw what happened to it immediately after you disappeared. He promoted Francie's old assistant to be head cook. Kim. You remember her don't you?"

"Yeah."

"Well, she ended up taking over the restaurant. Her and Weiss actually dated for a few months, but it didn't work out."

"Oh really. That would have been a sight to see. What happened between them?"

"He told way too many yo-yo jokes."

"Vaughn…"

"He never really would tell anyone what happened. Just that it wasn't meant to be."

"Oh ok. That's a little stranger."

"That's Weiss for you. Anyway, after Will got out of the hospital, he ended up taking over for Jack. Now they both just sort of oversee everything. Make sure that it doesn't change too much from what Francie wanted. And Kim is still the manager."

"Oh."

"Are you sure that it is ok that we are here?"

"Of course it's ok. I would have had to of came here eventually. Can't avoid it forever. I'm just glad that you are here with me."

"Good. The food is still awesome here. It is actually becoming one of the fastest growing restaurants in Los Angeles."

"Great. It's like a tribute to Francie."

"So are you ready to go in now?"

"Yeah, we have probably kept Will and Maggie waiting for long enough now."

Vaughn then leans over to kiss me and after we separate, he grabs my hand and that is how we enter the restaurant hand in hand.

Will's POV- Inside Francie's Restaurant

"Where are they Maggie? They should be here by now. Everyone is starting to get antsy. What if something happened to them? What if they got into a wreck?"

"Will, calm down. I'm sure that they are all right."

"Yeah, your right I'm sure. It's just that we have been here for about thirty minutes and they left at about the same time that we did."

"Shh…I think that I just heard a car pull in the lot. It must be them."

"Ok everyone. They're here. Is everyone ready?"

"Yeah man! Let's get this show on the road."

Typical Eric I think. We have actually grown close with everything that has gone on. Mainly just both of us trying to be there for Mike to help him through everything. I also know that Eric was trying to take care of me too. He must of known how much Syd meant to me too.

"Ok guys, get ready. Mike is supposed to make a lot of noise when he opens the door so that we know its them."

"Ok Will, enough! Syd is going to hear you and that will give everything away."

"Hey Eric you know what? Syd already knows that me and Maggie are going to be here."

"Will, Eric both of you just shut up. Places everyone."

I can tell by just glancing at Maggie that she is very serious, but also has a sparkle in her eyes so I know that she is not completely angry with me.

"All right then. In Eric's words: Let's get this show on the road!"

Sydney's POV- Francie's Restaurant Still

We are walking up the walkway into the restaurant and I realize that Vaughn is making a lot of noise for some strange reason.

"Is something wrong Sweetie?"

"No, no. Why would you say that?"

"You are just acting strange. Making lots of noise."

"Everything is fine I promise."

By this time, we are up to the doorway and he then opens the door for me.

"After you my dear."

"Thank you."
