Summary - Syd and Vaughn are young and in love. SV

I haven't been able to post because someone dobbed me into ff for my OC story which originally had lyrics which are apparently against the rules, so i took the lyrics off but then someone dobbed me in again for having lyrics which i clearly did not - so someone obvioulsy has a problem - so now i can't update until my punishment is over. For anyone reading 'Everything You Want' im sorry but its taken to much out of me with ff and im giving it up - i can't keep getting infractions because someone who reads OC fics has a problem. Oh its so depressing cos i took the lyrics off when i found out i wasn't allowed to post them so im really upset about it. I didn't do anything wrong and it sucks.

I'm sorry to all for not posting sooner but i have had exams and i am now finally on holidays as of today. So i might have a new chapter of When I See You Smiling up soon. But i'm going to Sydney in 10 days! So unfortunately no posts for 2 weeks when i'm in Sydney. Yay i'm going to Sydney! The city in which our heroine is named after!

Now everyone i feel a little crushed cos i didn't get as many reviews so make sure you ALWAYS review! Not just for me but for everyone's story you read - you read it - you review, someone put a lot of effort into writing it so the least you can do is write a review!

I now post all my review responses on my live journal (go to my profile and click on my homepage to get there) and review responses go up more often then chapters at this stage. I have responses for everyone who reviewed.

Thank You for your reviews- ArodLoverus2001, Claire, i love me, soccerfreeek324, Anna Bannana Boat and a TV crazed. A special thanks to TV crazed for posting multiple reviews to get my butt into gear - don't take me off ur fav's list - im posting!

Oh and Aussie Fans - i've heard that channel 7 has aired an ad for the new season of Alias - apparently set to air in August. Lets hope its true, we've been through enough.


Chapter 8

Sydney frantically searched her room for her new silver 2 inch heels, "Ha!" she cried when she spotted an open shoebox with a silver strap hanging over the edge in the corner of her walk in closet. She sat on her bed trying to fit the tiny metal rod into one of the miniscule holes in the leather band; it was her one year anniversary with Michael and she was as usual running late, Michael was due to pick her up in 5 minutes for her surprise anniversary date that he had organised all by himself, she didn't want to spoil the evening by being late, although being the thoughtful guy that he was and knowing how Syd was he had most likely given her the wrong time so she'd actually be early when he picked her up. She smiled at the likelihood of the latter of her thoughts, finally getting the Barbie sized instruments to fit the right way she made her way to the mirror. She gave herself an approving glance; she knew that Michael would probably have a heart attack when he saw her. She was wearing a knee-length red dress with multiple layers of different length fabrics that went in different directions making the skirt part of the dress, the top part of the dress was loose making it fall into a rounded shape, she had a heart shaped brooch on her hip with diamantes on it, her shoes were silver with silver straps that wound around a quarter of her leg. She had put her normally straight hair into loose curls which ended just passed her shoulders. She was going to carry a small rounded silver short strapped bag, her make-up was done up more that usual with Syd adding a fiery red glitter lipstick for effect, her nails were also the same shade of colour. She was just spraying herself with Tommy Girl when she heard the doorbell ring, praying that it was Monique that answered the door not her father who for some reason had come home early for dinner. Which had made Monique a bit upset (even though she would never dare show it) as she was planning to go on a date also but now she would have to cook for Jack and stay to clean up after.

"Hello Monique how are you this evening?" Michael greeted the Bristow's nanny

"Mr. Bristow is home," she answered simply "Sydney should be down within the hour I'm guessing, "she said grinning

"I know the drill, I'll let you get back to whatever you need to do so that you can make it out in time for your big date"

Sydney rolled her eyes, she had turned the intercom on as to hear who had answered the door but had to groan as she heard her boyfriend affect yet another female with his unfaltering charm.

"Hello Michael"

Sydney instantly stiffened when she heard her father's voice

"Hello Sir, how are you this evening" Michael replied as evenly as possible, this man scared him.

"I'm well, I believe that you are taking my daughter out this evening"

Straight to the point he thought "Yes Mr. Bristow it's our one year anniversary"

Uh oh Syd thought, I better get down there quick, but still make an entrance she added as an afterthought

Jack was about to answer when Michael suddenly smiled and looked passed him towards the stairs; he turned to see his daughter looking gorgeous gliding down the stairs. As she reached the last few steps Michael joined her and held out his arm to help her with the remaining stairs, a gallant gesture for a high school boy Jack had to admit. He although had used Sydney's advice and checked the boy out in the CIA files, he had come up clean whether that was a good thing or a bad thing was left for him to decide.

"Wow Syd, you look amazing" Michael whispered to her as he reached out his arm "I'm so glad you decided to come down at this very moment"

Syd's breath had caught in her throat when she first laid eyes on Michael in a suit "You look gorgeous in a suit, I can't wait for tonight"

"I was staring at you the whole time, did you notice"

"I did, do you think my father noticed too?"

"No, he didn't notice"

"Sydney you look lovely, do have a good time this evening, I won't be home when you get back I'm off on a trip I'll see you in a week" with that Jack walked into his study but not before giving Michael a quick glare/glance.

"Come on let's get out of here" Syd whispered into Michaels' ear

"Ok but one thing first"

"What?"

"Shh" he said as he wrapped a blindfold around her eyes and started leading her towards his car.

The car trip was actually longer than expected but Syd realised that Michael must have driven around aimlessly for awhile so she would be clueless as to where they were going, Michael had put together a CD of their favourite songs and had purposely not arrived until the CD had played through each of the songs.

He was enjoying the trip, as he knew even with the constant nagging about where they were going this was exactly how Syd would have wanted their anniversary to be.

An hour after they had left Syd's house they arrived at the Los Rogo's Spanish restaurant, Michael finally took off the blindfold letting Syd have a look at her surroundings. "Oh my gosh! Michael this place is so beautiful how did you get a reservation, this place must cost a for…"

"Shh, don't even think about it, it's our special night and you deserve the very best there is"

Melting from his words and the smile that followed, she let Michael lead her through the restaurant, without a word a waiter arrived at their sides, took their coats and ushered them to a private room in the back, placing his hands over Syd's eyes Michael let the waiter open the door. Inside was beautiful, Michael had organised what he wanted to have in the room but nothing that he had imagined looked anything like this. There was a table for two in the centre of the room, it had been set up exquisitely, roses of every colour, shape and size were spread out across the room, with a dance floor off to the left of the room, romantic music was playing softly in the background, it was perfect. Michael slowly lifted his hands off her eyes and gave her a moment to take it all in.

"So what do you think?" he asked her

"It's so amazing, it's beautiful, oh my gosh you didn't do this by yourself did you, you are amazing"

"Shh, you're rambling, have I told you that you're beautiful lately?"

"Only a hundred times, I was expecting to hear it at least a thousand times by now" she said with a silly grin on her face.

"Well I think that I'll need at least the rest of tonight and tomorrow morning to reach my quota" he said grinning

Syd smirked, she knew exactly what Michael was thinking and truthfully she was thinking the same thing, Monique wouldn't be back for a few days and her father would be gone the entire week, it was now or never, "let's see how tonight goes and then we'll decide about tomorrow later" she said teasingly, he had waited a year, he could wait a few more hours.

Michael smiled and led his date to the table, inside though he was about to burst. He had thought long and hard about the prospect of an extended date tonight, he wasn't quite sure about it, he knew the risks involved, but they were in a serious relationship, and they would be each other's firsts. On top of that, he was in love, he was deeply in love with Syd, something that he would announce this evening, if it all went to plan.

Syd and Michael laughed, ate and danced throughout the evening; they were both enjoying themselves greatly, although most thoughts were focused on the night ahead of them, if the night went on past the restaurant.

"Michael I had a great night, it was so perfect, I can't believe that you organised it all" Syd said to her boyfriend as they were standing in the front foyer of her house. She was still contemplating if tonight would in fact be the night, she loved Michael and they would be responsible and she truly did almost feel ready, key word being almost. They had had opportunities in the past but it wasn't the right time and she wasn't sure now was the right time either, she loved him and trusted him with her life, she hoped he felt the same.

Michael took a deep breath, it was now, the time was right to let her know how much she meant to him. It was crazy that he could be saying this to someone in high school, after all who finds their soul mate when they're 16? Never the less he knew that it was real, maybe too real, well here it goes, "Syd, I'm so glad that you had a great time, I just have something to add, Syd I love you, I've known it for a while now and I always will love you."


Well the whole outfit Syd was wearing was my semi formal outfit (yr 10) I don't do the dress justice when i explain it but its sooo gorgeous. OMG it was so long ago - i'm now hunting for my formal dress (yr 12).
