Half an hour later Sydney was still thinking of Vaughn. She had done her best too save Ana and Jacob from her misery, and finally just told them she needed some alone time.
Sydney walked through the crowds of people and the happy music. She hated that Vaughn could make her feel so sad. She hated that she still loved him even though he could hurt her. But most of all, she hated the bad feeling I stomach that being without Vaughn caused.
"Maybe I should just go back to the house." Sydney sighed and looked once more over the crowd. Just before she turned away, her eyes caught sight of ruffled blonde hair and deep green eyes.
Sydney stopped dead in her tracks. The boyish face, built body, the heart-melting smile. Vaughn.
As he saw her, the crowd seemed to part between them. Just feet separated them now, but soon that would be gone. Sydney smiled and Vaughn grinned. He walked slowly over to her, and closed the gap to mere inches.
"Hey." His voice was low, as if he had just woke up.
"Hey." Sydney's voice was like a breathless sigh.
Forgetting all past events, Danny, fights, and anything else, the two closed the gap. As their lips met Vaughn placed his hands around her waist, and Sydney encircled hers around his neck. At first the kiss was gentle as if they were just getting to know each other. But the longer they stayed together, the more passionate it grew.
Finally they broke away as the need for oxygen over-bared them. They rested their foreheads together, each looking into each other's eyes, smiling. Vaughn was the first to speak.
"I missed you."
"I missed you." Sydney grinned as Vaughn grinned.
"I love you Sydney Bristow."
"I love you…Vaughn." Vaughn just grinned harder. He picked her up and spun her around. Sydney laughed and hugged Vaughn harder. What could be better then being with the one you love?
