"Hey guys. What are you doing?" Sydney asked, as she walked into Francie's restaurant.

Will and Francie were sitting at a table eating dinner.

Francie looked up and smiled at her. "You got my note?"

"That's why I'm here" Sydney replied.

Will looked up with a confused expression. "What note?"

Sydney sank down into a chair at their table, and sighed. "Fran left me a note meet you guys here for dinner."

Francie smiled. "I know that I was supposed to cook or bring some dinner home, but I have to work late tonight, so I figured that you would just want to come eat with Will and me."

Sydney smiled at her. "Yeah, this is great."

Francie smiled back at her, and stood up. "I'll go get you something to eat. Do you want anything in particular?"

Sydney shook her head. "No. Just surprise me."

Francie laughed. "Okay, be right back."

"So, how's the new job going, Will?" Sydney asked.

"It's going great. I really love it." Will answered.

Lowering his voice, Will leaned toward Sydney and said, "Please tell Vaughn, thanks for me."

Sydney smiled at him. "I will."

Francie returned a few minutes later, holding a plate.

"Here you go, Syd. It's blackened fish."

Sydney picked up her for and reached for the plate of fish. "Thanks, Fran."

"Your welcome" Francie said, as she took her seat again and started eating her own dinner.

"What are you guys going to be doing this Saturday?" Sydney asked them.

She wasn't sure if they remembered that Saturday was her birthday.

Franice looked up from her plate. "I have to work during the day, but I'm leaving early."

Will nodded and said, "I have to work too, but I get off early."

"Okay, that's cool" Sydney said.

Will frowned. "Did you want to do something with us?"

"Well, yeah" Sydney replied.

Francie frowned in concentration and pulled out a day planner. A minute later she gasped. "It's your birthday!"

"Sorry I forgot, Syd" Will said with a sheepish smile.

"Me too" Francie chimed in.

Sydney shrugged. "It's okay, you guys. But do you want to hang out that night?"

"Definitely. Why don't we cook a special dinner and get a cake, or a cheesecake?" Francie said enthusiastically.

"That would be great!" Will chimed in.

"What do you think, Syd?" Francie asked her.

Sydney smiled at them and said, " Yeah, that would be really nice."

"Then it's a plan," Francie stated.

"Yep" Will said.

"Yep" Sydney said, echoing Will.

After they had all finished eating, Sydney took off for home.

Later that night, Vaughn finished cleaning up his kitchen and sat down in his favorite chair to read the Sunday ads, that had come in that morning's paper.

A couple of ads later, he saw it. The best, most perfect gift for Sydney's birthday.

Vaughn grinned and set the ad aside.
