Chapter 5
V: I'm sorry Syd, I didn't mean to bring her up.
S: It's ok I've gotten used to the idea that she is my mother, biologically speaking. I don't like it but that's not something I can change. Anyone up for breakfast?
She asks dodging any more questions. Vaughn senses that it bothers her more than she's letting on but for her sake drops the subject and agrees for breakfast.
V: I'm in, and you can count on Eric.
He adds with a smirk at his best friend.
Matt: Yeah that sounds great.
A: I think I will.
M: I'll help you dear, what are we making?
S: What do you guys want we have most everything.
V: Can you make pancakes?
Matt: Eggs please?
Just as Eric opens his mouth to make a request she interrupts.
S: Sorry, no éclairs today Eric.
E: Hey!
He protests jumping up and chasing her around the cabin until she hides behind Vaughn so he can't get to her. Leaving everyone but Alice laughing at Eric's forlorn look at the prospect of not getting to her and no éclairs; Alice is seething because of Syd and Vaughn's close relationship, which she knew nothing about all the time they were dating.
E: All right I give.
S: Poor baby.
She says giggling into Vaughn's shoulder.
E: I'll get you back for that Bristow!
S: Oh no Michael save me!
She shrieks playfully.
V: Coming milady!
M: All right children, let's get some breakfast started shall we?
S: Yeah.
She says watching Eric to make sure he doesn't try anything funny when she leaves Vaughn.
