CHAPTER 14
Sydney looked on, tears making their way down her face as Michael walked out of the door. He was furious and she knew it. She also knew that it was all her fault. She sank down onto the floor as her own cries took over, her body shaking involuntarily. Her hands roughly wiped away the tears and she stood up, walking to the door. She had to apologize to Vaughn. He needed to know how sorry she was. She opened the door knowing that he couldn't have gotten too far. She saw him about to cross the main road, which was just before the a road infront of their house.
"Michael!" she shouted, trying to get him to turn around so that she could apologize.
Vaughn stopped short as he heard his name, and turned to face Sydney. He didn't want to put up with this. He needed time alone, to think.
"Sydney, not now. I have to go. I just, I can't be around you at the moment." He said with a shake of his head. He turned about to cross the road, but Sydney had started to run and got to where he was easily. She grabbed his arm and turned him around so that they were facing each other.
"What?!" Vaughn asked harshly as he looked at her. "Did you think of something else to say? Some other selfish thing that I've done. Maybe you've think I'm cheating on you too? Huh? I mean, why not? You seem to assume everything else I do is wrong, why don't I just start acting like the guy In there you were describing to me? I'll just go find some other girl to screw. Hey, maybe I could do that while I'm directing my agent on a mission, I mean it's so easy to do I should be able to do both at once right? I'm so sick of this shit."
"Michael, you know I didn't mean all that stuff." She wanted to keep explaining but he wouldn't listen. He turned and without looking walked across the road at a fast pace. From that moment everything was a blur to Sydney.
A car horn beeped. The sound was deafening to Sydney. She covered her ears on reflex and turned her head away from the sound. Even with her hands over her ears she could not escape the next sound that came pounding through. The squealing of brakes followed by a sickening thud, then another. This sound brought Sydney back to reality and her head whipped towards the road. Her eyes grew wide and she began to shake as she took in the scene in front of her.
"No." It was barely a whisper, but at that time it was all that she could manage.
"No!" she screamed it this time. She ran onto the road and knelt besides Vaughn, tears cascading down her cheeks. His unconscious body was lying on the road, he had obviously broken at least one leg, as well as possibly a few broken ribs. Shards of glass left him with bleeding scars from the impact with the windshield. Blood protruded from a large gash on his head, the sticky red substance staining his hair. She moved his head so that so that it was resting on her lap. She stroked his hair and whispered words of comfort in his ears, as well as apologizing over and over, her mind telling her that it was her fault. All her fault. She faintly heard the sound of sirens approaching, and dimly noticed the paramedics who came running out, a few taking Vaughn from Sydney's embrace, another pulling Sydney away. She struggled and screamed, and another paramedic helped to keep her back. Tears endlessly flowed down her cheeks as she continued to yell. She saw Michael being carefully moved onto a stretcher. Suddenly one of the paramedics yelled something out, Sydney was unable to hear him but it caught the attention of the man's fellow paramedics. They rushed over to Vaughn, one of them with a defibrillator in hand.
"One, two, three- clear!"
Sydney watched as her body went into shock, while Vaughn's body surged upwards from the electricity coursing through his unconscious body. Time passed in a blur, and the paramedics stepped away, an expression of sad resignation on each of their faces. Vaughn lay still. His chest wasn't rising, he was no longer breathing in the air. He was unmoving. Completely still. Sydney yelled out in agony as what this meant dawned on her. She didn't know how but she managed to break away from the two men holding her, and ran to Vaughn's side, immediately checking for a pulse. Finding none she cried even harder, her cries echoing through the crowded street.
The paramedics returned and tried to pull her back, shaking her. Repeating her name.
"Sydney. Sydney!"
Her eyes shot open at her name being called out, and her body immediately jerked forwards. She tried to steady her breathing as well as her heartbeat, sweat pouring down her face mixing with tears. Her body continued to shake violently. She looked around and took in her surroundings. The shaking calmed down and her breathing started to slow.
"Hey, It's okay, your okay." She turned her towards the voice. When she saw the beautiful green eyes that she knew so well staring back at her she launched herself into his arms. She started to cry again, and Vaughn held her tightly, stroking her hair and kissing her forehead as he rocked her gently back and forth, trying to comfort her and calm her down.
"Shhh, your alright now. It was just a dream, it wasn't real. You were having a nightmare. Everything's okay now. I'm here." He continued to whisper words of comfort as she crawled onto his lap, holding onto him tightly.
Eventually the crying subsided, and she pulled back a bit, but did not move from his lap. She turned to face him and kissed his forehead, then his lips lightly, before turning onto her side and leaning against his chest.
"Must have been some dream, wanna talk about it?" Vaughn whispered to her, as he wrapped his arms around her and rested his chin on top of her head.
She sniffed a few times before relaying her dream to him.
"It was terrible. You were dead and it was all my fault. I reminded myself so much of my mother. She killed your father and I killed you. Like mother like daughter, I guess." She ended this with a dry laughing sound, hardly recognising the sound herself.
"Hey!" Vaughn said firmly as he pulled away so that he could look at her. "You are nothing like your mother, you know that. I know you would never deliberately try to hurt me. Your kind and your loving and your gentle. You are without a doubt the most beautiful person I have had the honour to meet and I am so thankful to have you in my life. Nothing will ever change that. Okay?"
Sydney nodded her head slightly and wiped away the tears that had come when she was telling Vaughn about her dream.
"I'll go get you a glass of water." Vaughn got out of bed to get the drink but after just a few steps he heard footsteps behind him. Sydney wrapped her arms around his waist from behind and rested the side of her face against his back.
"What?" she said as she heard Michael chuckle lightly. "I just had a very bad nightmare and shouldn't be left alone." Sydney stated in a firm but playful tone.
"I totally agree," Vaughn replied as the two walked off to the kitchen before returning to their bed, Sydney eventually falling asleep with Vaughn's comforting arms around her. She received no more nightmares that night.
