In that moment Sydney realized she didn't know what came next; where would they go from here?
She pulled back from their embrace and searched around the room, hoping the answer to his simple yet entirely too complicated question could be found in the chipped paint on the walls or the cold stone floor beneath their feet.
"I...I, I don't know" the sheer desperation in her voice was evident, "we need to get you better, and get you out of custody, and avoid my father at all costs. But I promise, we'll figure this all out. I promise."
"Sydney, even though everything we have ever known has changed, I know that no matter what, we can depend on each other;" turning towards anger now, "and no matter how angry and betrayed we are because of what your parents and my father did, I can't completely hate them, because they brought me the greatest thing in my whole life.
You.
If they hadn't planned our lives, I might not have met you, and I can't even think what life would have been like, if you weren't here with me."
He pulled her close and in those few brief seconds when the rest of the world melted away, Sydney knew that no matter what her parents had done, they couldn't have made her love Vaughn. It was like she was unable to not love him. They were meant to be, not because of a prophecy, but because he was her other half, her soul mate, and no prophecies or planned lives could have ever changed that.
hopefully no more boring dialog. Snore! (Sorry!)
"Are you sure you're okay, you don't want me to just go?"
"Yeah, Syd, I'm fine. Let's just go, get this over with." Sydney and Vaughn entered the apartment he had shared with Lauren, ready to pack what was left of his belongings that hadn't been confiscated by the CIA or ruined when Vaughn took his anger out on the furniture after he learned of Lauren's betrayal.
Aside from looking like a bomb hit the apartment, the place still screamed of Lauren. Cold, boring white walls. Adorned with only black and white prints. The one photo that grabbed Sydney's attention was a wedding photo. Picking it up in her hands, she studied it.
Did Vaughn really look happy in that picture? Did Lauren? Was anyone?
"What's that, Syd?"
"Nothing, where should we start?" She inquired, hoping to distract him from what she had been thinking.
"Come on, Syd, what's goin' on?" Vaughn asked with concern.
"It's just your wedding picture, you both looked genuinely happy. I just, I guess I feel guilty, maybe if our parents hadn't planned our whole lives Lauren wouldn't have been evil, and maybe you two would have been really happy. Had normal lives without this prophecy crap, without missing time, without..."
She never finished her self pity party, because Vaughn slammed his lips onto hers. Hoping that he would be able to convey all his love for her with that one embrace, let her know that he would never want to trade a second of his life with her. The best part, the only part of his life he felt worth living was the time he spent with her.
"Oh Syd, I wasn't happy. No matter what I was doing, or who I was with, a part of me was just waiting for you. I couldn't let myself be truly happy, because you weren't there next to me. It was like when you were on operations with SD-6 and I couldn't do anything to get you out of mind. But this was so much worse because it was a sure thing that you wouldn't be coming home.
I wasn't happy at that wedding, Eric had to get me slightly drunk just so I would leave the room to get to the alter. I was in this room getting dressed, and I just broke down. I cried and screamed that it wasn't you that I was marrying. I,...I, Syd, I was seriously contemplating not showing up for the ceremony. It was like I could feel how betrayed you would be.
Eric, my mother, everyone convinced me that you would have wanted me to move on, to try to be happy. But, I wasn't, I couldn't...
Not without you, I couldn't ever hope to be happy without you in my life, Sydney. When the CIA contacted me, to let me know that you were alive, it was like I finally woke up from this horrible nightmare. I felt like I woke up and everything was how it was supposed to be again. You were okay, and we were going to be together again. And then, you noticed my wedding ring. Syd, I had honestly forgotten that I was married until you asked me about the ring, all I could think about since I found out that you were okay, was us. Not once did I even think about Lauren, or how your coming back would affect my marriage.
But just seeing you alive, that was one of the happiest moments of my life. It has always been you, Sydney, I love you.
Okay enough of this, lets get this placed packed up, and then I'm thinking we need some ice cream."
Sydney nodded her head, and accepted that this wasn't the time or the place to feel sorry for the way things happened.
"Okay, whoo you have xbox? I am so kicking your ass."
"You think so, huh?"
"Oh yeah, I know I will."
Light banter filled the apartment as they packed and the long awaited comfort that had been missing since her return finally settled upon the two.
Maybe if they found comfort in each other again, they could find the answers they were searching for.

Sorry, that was so boring, if you have an ideas, I am suffering from severe writer's block. I know where the story is going, but I can't really get there. HELP HELP!!! Reviews are the best!
