CHAPTER 7 - Part 1
"How do i look?"Sydney asked will, modeling a dress she had just bought
"That's something you never have to ask" he said, smiling " Where are you going, anyway?"
"Im going to see Danny. "
"How are you guys? Mike told me what happened"
***********FLASHBACK**********
LA REGISTER
"Hey Will"
"Oh, hi, mike, what's up?"
"The boss just yelled at me for the pepsi twist story. I cant bring myself to do it. It's just so stupid"
"And what about the CIA story?"
"its not ready yet. Im still waiting on a few responses.
I want it to be really good, you know?"
"yeah. Well, you better turn something in soon."
"i know, i know, i guess i'll have to compromise my work ethic and do the pepsi twist story. So.. have you talked to sydney lately"
"I saw her a couple of days ago. Why?"
"the other day i ran into her and we went to dinner. Danny saw us and got mad."
"Danny can be really jealous"
"Tell me about it. Anyway, he was with another doctor, kat.
They sat with us but left 5 mts later.
After dinner, i took sydney to the ice rink to cheer her up.
Havent heard from her ever since"
"I didnt know, but im sure syd's ok.
She is really strong. She and Danny go through stages
The calm before the storm, you know?
It's mostly calm, but they fight like every month.
No need to wonder why"
*****END FLASHBACK*****
"You told him that?
That we have problems every months?
Now who knows what he's gonna think!"
"Jesus, relax, after all, its the truth,. You have like a fight a month"
"a fight over what to eat, or where to go! We dont fight because i have pms!"
"Jajaja, i doubt he'll think that"
"whatever will, just think before you speak"
Danny's House
7:00 pm
Sydney has brought danny a surprise exquisite dinner
He should be home any minute now
She hears the door and goes to see.
It's Danny. With Kat.
"Are you sure you're okay?" she hears kat say
"Im fine, dont worry..."
as fast as she can, sydney picks up everything and hides to see what's gonna happen "And what about your fiancee?
Have you broken up?"
"She's cheating on me. What do you think?"
"I dont think she's cheating on you.
Women, unlike men, can have friends of the opposite sex and not sleep with them"
"Kat, dont worry about her. Tonight is for us"
"I dont know ,Danny. Maybe we should wait and just hang out as friends"
"Im not sure i can do that. You're dangerous to be around..."
At this point, Sydney cant take it anymore and she steps out to confront him.
"Cheating on you? I think it's the other way around"
"Syd? What are you doing here? How long..?"
"I heard it all. I cant believe it. I never thought you were such a jerk.
And think i came here to fix things up.
And thanks, kat, for being so nice. He doesnt deserve you.
We're too good for him.
Goodbye, Daniel"
With that, she took her engagement ring and dropping it onto the floor, she left.
When Sydney got home, no one was there
She doesnt want to be alone.
She picks up the phone and almost automatically she dial Mike's number.
"Hello?" she hears his voice on the other end
"Hello? Is someone there?"He ask, sydney not saying anything
"Hi. It's me , Sydney"
"Oh, Hi, Syd. How you been?"
"Fine, thanks.
I just called to, well, to thankyou for the other night. You were really helpful"
"Dont worry. Glad i could help. Anytime"
"So.. what are you doing?"
"Nothing really,watching tv. What about you?"
"Not much either. Would you like to come over?
Im alone and i could use the company"
"Sure. you want me to get anything?"
"if you dont mind..."
"I dont. Just tell me what"
"Some coffe ice cream. Maybe something to drink, like beer or something"
"'kay, i'll be right there.
Bye"
"Bye. Thanks"
About 15 mts later, Mike is at the door, with coffe and chocolate ice cream plus a 6pack of beer.
"Hi"
"Hi. Come in"
"So... where's the rest of the world?"
"Out"
"So, what happened? Are you and danny ok?"
"Better than ever" sydney says with sarcasm
"Oh. So that good"
"Yeah, but i dont want to talk about it"
Sydney brought sporks and plates for the ice cream and they sat in the couch to eat it
"What do you wanna do?" mike asked her, taking a bite of coffee
"Dont know... let's see if there's something on"
"Good idea"
"Oh, the emmys. Will they be any good this year?"
"They never are"
"Have you ever seen the sopranos?"
"Once or twice. Didnt like it. Dont know why it wins so much"
"me neither. I love 24, and it never wins"
"That sucks"
They kept on talking about lots of things, learning a lot about each other
They were having fun, and they were very comfortable
"Are you sure you're okay? You look kinda sad"
"Maybe we should go to the ice rink again"
"Just say it and we'll go"
"Nah, im pretty tired today"
"How about tomorrow?"
"Ok"
"So we have a hockey date"
"We do"
"And you wanna tellme what's going on, or should i wait till tomorrow?"
"I... i think i broke up with danny"
"What? When?"
"today. I went to see him and he was with kat, that other doctor.
They were talking about me. Danny said i cheated on him. He was tryin to sleep
with her. I couldnt take it so i confronted him and i gave him his ring back"
"Oh, im so sorry. It was all my fault"
"no it wasnt. We would have probably broken up anyway"
"so i was just a catalizer?"
"Yeah." She laughed
then she started cryin a little on his shoulder.
He hugged her,comfortin her.
"Thank you" sydney said,"For being here. I wouldnt be able to handle it alone"
"Im here for you. Whenever you need me"
they heard the door opening and thought it was francie
"What the F**k is this?" Danny screamed when he saw them.
"How do i look?"Sydney asked will, modeling a dress she had just bought
"That's something you never have to ask" he said, smiling " Where are you going, anyway?"
"Im going to see Danny. "
