A/N: Yay another chapter!!! Thanks to all the people who reviewed the last chapter! It means so much to me!
In this chapter I have used the song Yellow by Coldplay. Coldplay are one of my all time favorite bands and this song is really sad yet sweet at the same time. I found the lyrics at www . lyricsdir . com

See the other chapters for setting, disclaimer etc.


Chapter 6: Airport

A few hours later, after quickly dropping by Sydney's for her to pick up some clothes, the couple was on their way to the airport. Vaughn reached over and took Sydney's hand in his as he comfortably maneuvered his car through the traffic. The gentle tune of Coldplay flowed through the speakers as the couple took a moment to reflect.

Look at the stars; look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow
I came along; I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called yellow

Over the past few days, Vaughn had noticed how his senses were heightened every moment he spent with Sydney. His body knew that soon he wouldn't be able to see her and his body was picking up small things which he never did before.

So then I took my turn
Oh what a thing to have done
And it was all yellow
Your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know?
You know I love you so
You know I love you so

Every emotion she stirred within him was more intense than ever before. Waking up next to her in the morning was so exciting and rich. Spending lunch with her in the sunshine was so joyous. And simply riding in a car with her was so satisfying.

I swam across; I jumped across for you
Oh what a thing to do
'Cos you were all yellow
I drew a line; I drew a line for you
Oh what a thing to do
And it was all yellow

As the car stopped at traffic lights, Vaughn gazed over at the woman next to him. She wasn't glamorous or over the top. She was simply the most beautiful and breathtaking woman he had ever seen. He loved her, but had never told her. And he knew he only had just over a week to tell her.

And your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know?
For you I bleed myself dry
For you I bleed myself dry
It's true
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for?
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine

Sydney looked over and blushed as she saw Vaughn watching her. Vaughn didn't look away, but brought her hand to his lips, where he kissed her knuckles.

Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And all the things that you do

They shared a smile before Vaughn had to force his eyes back to the road as the lights changed.

Vaughn quickly found a park at the airport and both agents stepped out of the car.

"You know you really can't come in to see me off" Sydney reminded Vaughn as he began to take her suitcase from the car.

"I know the drill" Vaughn replied with a wink.

They stood facing each other, neither quite knowing what to do. This goodbye was somehow a reminder of what they were to face when Vaughn left on his mission.

Vaughn suddenly stepped forward, taking her face in his hands, and passionately kissed her.

They pulled apart minutes later, breathless. They remained clinging to each other, shocked at the emotions stirring within them.

"You better go" Vaughn stated huskily, still not removing himself for Sydney's embrace.

Sydney didn't say anything as Vaughn gently pushed her hair away from her face and behind her ears. She leant forward, gently kissing his lips before pulling away and walking towards the terminal, suitcase in hand.

"Hey!" Vaughn called after her

Sydney turned to look back at Vaughn, the wind blowing her hair. She is so beautiful, Vaughn thought to himself

"What?" she called back

"Be careful" Vaughn called back, not thinking of anything else to say

Sydney beamed back at him, making his heart skip a beat. "Get some sleep tonight" she called back, a teasing tone to her voice.

And with that, she turned and continued her walk towards the terminal.
