Hi
everyone.
Let me start with I am soooooooo sorry that it took
sooo longgggggg to finish this chapter.
Second it is up earlier
than I said it would be.
So I hope you all like it.
It is all
so long. Well at least I thought that it is long.
Side note: When I talk about any of these characters this is how old I feel them to be; Sydney, Francie, Will, and Kit are 17. Caitlin, Alyssa, Diana, and Krystal are 16. Vaughn, Weiss, Amber, Vince, and Tasha are 18. And Chris and Matt are 19. Just too clear things up.
So without further adue here it is.
Chapter 5
The next morning when Sydney woke up she was anxious to see Vaughn after the wonderful night they had had the night before. She got dressed then went down stairs for some breakfast, and found her father, Jack Bristow, in the kitchen. He was sitting at the table reading the newspaper. When she walked into the kitchen he didn't even look up from the paper.
"Hey dad. What are you doing home? Don't you have work today?" She asked as she walked over to the refrigerator and poured herself a glass of orange juice.
"They gave me the day off." He replied still not looking up from what he was reading.
"Oh…ok." She said putting the orange juice away and getting milk out for her cereal. As she walked over to the cupboard and got the cereal out Jack got up and put his cup of coffee in the sink.
"So what are your plans for today?" He asked her.
"Well Francie and I planned to hang out later on." She lied while sitting down at the table with her juice and cereal. Well it wasn't a complete lie she would see Francie that night, cause her and some of Frans other friends had a surprise party planned for her birthday. That and she didn't want to tell him about Vaughn just yet for fear that he would scare Vaughn off. He had done it before with her ex Noah, she had told her father about him when they started going out, and then he insisted on meeting him. Noah had come to pick her up for a date, but she hadn't been ready, so while she finished getting ready her father had been threatening him. After that date Noah wouldn't talk to her anymore. 'That can not happen this time.' She said to herself.
After she finished eating she put her dishes in the sink and went up to her room. Turning on her phone she proceeded to call Caitlin.
"Hey Cait its Syd." She says while sitting down on her bed.
"Hey. What's up?"
"We're still having that surprise party for Francie tonight at your place, right?"
"Yay we are. Will is going to take her out for a little bit. While he keeps her busy Kit, Tasha, Alyssa, Matt, and Chris are going to come over and help set up. People should start to show up about five or five-thirty, then at about six Will is going to bring her over."
"Ok. Do you think you guys will need anymore help?"
"No I think we'll have it covered."
"Ok see you later then."
"Bye."
"Bye." After she hangs up she dials Vaughn's number.
"Hello?" He answers after three rings.
"Hey Vaughn its Sydney."
"Hey. What's up?"
"Well yesterday was Francies birthday. So a couple of us are throwing her a surprise party later on tonight, and I was wondering if you wanted to come?" She asked. While waiting for his answer she began to chew on her bottom lip.
"I'd love to. What time is it at?"
"Well it's at Caitlin's house. And people are going to come about 5:30."
"Okay."
"If you want we could go together because her place is a little hard to find." She said hoping he would taker her up on her offer.
"Alright. What time should I pick you up?"
"How about 5 o'clock so we get there a little early incase they need some help?"
"Ok. Did you want to get some lunch later?"
"Umm…sure but I need to go to the mall to get Francies birthday present. We could meet there."
"Ok. So I'll see you soon?"
"Yup. Bye."
"Bye."
After she hung up with Vaughn she went to her closet and got dressed. Once she got changed for the day she headed back down stairs. Where she found her father in his office working on his computer.
"I'm going out to get Francie a birthday present. I'll be back soon." She said while picking up her purse and heading towards the door.
"Ok drive safe." He said to her not even turning from his computer.
At the mall Sydney was waiting for Vaughn in the food court when someone came up behind her and put their hands over her eyes.
"Guess who?" The person asked.
"Umm…the guy that liked my face at the last party I was at, or my secret boyfriend." She said with a smirk.
"That was mean Bristow. I have half a mind to leave and never talk to you again." He joked as he began to head further into the mall.
"You wouldn't do that." She said running to catch up with him.
"You're right I wouldn't. So where are we off to first?"
"Well I want to get Francie some cloths and cd's so let's just look at a couple different stores."
"Ok."
After getting her some shirts and pajamas they decided to go to the food court and get some lunch. They each got their food then sat down.
"So how long have you known Francie for?"
"We've known each other since first grade."
"WOW. That's a long time, and to still be friends."
"It is, but we do have are fights like friends. So we aren't always together." She said.
They continued with questions about friends and old schools throughout lunch. Once they finished with their food they headed to the music store.
"Hi."
Said a worker as they entered the store. They walked around for a few
minutes before one of the employees asked if they needed any help
finding anything.
"No." They both replied.
After getting the new Green Day and Gwen Stefani cd's they left the store.
"There's just one more place I need to stop at." She said as they headed to the toy store.
"What could you possibly need from here?" He asked her as they entered.
"I'm getting silly string. We are planning to spray her with some when she comes through the door. That and it's always fun to ply with silly string." She said smiling at him as she grabbed the cans.
When they reached the cash register he insisted on paying for it, much to her protest. They then headed back towards the food court seeing as they had parked outside of it.
"So what time should I stop by and pick you up?" He asked.
"About 4:45. Is that ok?"
"Yay. See you then."
"Bye."
"Bye."
Then they both got into their cars and drove home.
After wrapping Francie's presents Sydney saw that it was already 4 o'clock so she started to get reedy. After taking a shower, getting dressed, and putting make-up on it was 4:40 so she grabbed the presents and went to wait for Vaughn outside.
"Dad I'm going to Francie's party. I'll be back before midnight."
"Ok." He said to her from his office.
Once she got outside Vaughn pulled into the drive way.
"Hey." He said to her as she got into the car.
"Hey."
Once she was buckled in he drove the way she told him to get to Caitlin's house. When they got to her house they parked a couple houses down and went inside. There had been a little more decorating to be done so they helped the others finish. As told people started to arrive at 5:30, then at 5:55 Cait got a call from Will saying they would be there in about 5 minutes. So everyone got into place and they turned the lights and music off.
(In Will's car)
"Thanks for spending the day with me Will. I was so down when no one had called to wish me a happy birthday." Francie said with a sad smile on her face.
"I wouldn't want to be doing anything else than spending your birthday with you." He said smiling at her. "Do you mind if we stop at Caitlin's real quick? I have to borrow something from her for my history project."
"No that's ok." She said having no idea what was going on.
As they pulled up she noticed that none of the lights were on.
"Are you sure she's even home?"
"Oh...she told me she was going out tonight. But she gave me the spare to come and pick the stuff up." He said as he turned the car off and got out. Francie then got out to and followed him to the door. He put the key in the door unlocked it and walked in.
"SUPRISE !" Everyone yelled as she walked through the door, and spraying her with silly string.
People became very quite as they heard them walk up to the door and unlock it.
As they began to enter the house Cait flicked the lights on.
"SUPRISE!" Everyone yelled as she walked through the door, and spraying her with silly string.
"Oh My God!" She said looking around the room with a huge smile on her face.
People then came up to her and wished her a happy
birthday. The party progressed with everyone dancing, eating, and
having a good. Vaughn and Will were talking to each other at the
refreshments table when Krystal came up to Vaughn.
"Hey
Michael." She said to him with a grin on her face.
"Will."
She said with a disgusted tone to her voice.
"Krystal." Will said. "I'm going to go talk to Chris." He told Vaughn and walked off towards were Chris was.
"So now that we're alone would you care to dance?" She asked him
"I'm actually here with Sydney." He told her.
"So? I don't see her around." She said throwing her arms around his neck.
"Well I'll tell you what. You go dance…" he said pulling her arms off of him. "and I'll go find Sydney." He finished walking away from her.
"Your still coming to my party tomorrow right?" She screamed as he walked away.
He continued to walk around until he found Sydney talking to people he didn't know.
"Hey Syd." He said as he came up behind her.
"Hey." She said. The people she was with started to walk away.
"Would you like to dance?" He asked her as a slow song came on.. While holding out his hand to her.
"I would love to." She said, then took his hand as they walked onto the makeshift dance floor.
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're
barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah
I'm
open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't
see your face
Light up again
Even the best fall down
sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt
that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide
I'm
quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm
scared to know I'm always on your mind
Even the best fall
down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back
you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide
Don't
stop here
I lost my place
I'm close behind
Even the
best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out
of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find
You and I
collide
You finally find
You and I collide
You
finally find
You and I collide
After the song was over they stayed and danced to a few more songs. Francie and Will had since then joined them on the dance floor. The next time anyone had looked at a clock it was 11:30 and most people had left wishing Francie a happy birthday. Since almost everyone had left Sydney, Vaughn, Will, Cait, Kit, Chris, and much to the others protest Francie and started to clean up the house. Once they finished the helped Francie carry her presents out to her car.
"This was great you guys. Thank you for the best birthday ever, even if I thought you all forgot." She said smiling.
"Your welcome." They all replied.
After hugs everyone then headed home.
"I had a great time tonight Syd." Vaughn said. They were sitting in his parked car outside of her house.
"I did too. Thanks for coming with me. I can't remember the last time I had that much fun." She smiled at him.
"I'm glad that I wasn't boring." He laughed. "So I guess I'll talk to you tomorrow."
"Yay. Thanks again."
They then leaned it for a sweet and breath taking kiss. Once they pulled apart she opened the car door and got out.
"Talk to you tomorrow." She said.
"Yay. Good night Syd."
"Night Vaughn."
She then closed the car door and walked up the path to her front door. While walking she hears Vaughn starting to pull away. Just when she reaches the door and is about to unlock it she hears a loud crash. She quickly turns around with a scared look on her Face.
"VAUGHN!"
Dun Dun Dun.
