Underneath It All: Sky and Syd
Disclaimer: #Consults# her lawyer# Nope, not mine.
Challenge: Playful
Timeframe: During Reflection Pt One in the park. Syd's POV.
Why's he acting like this with her? I mean, I'm the one who really cares about him. I'm the one who's been there all his life, trying to be a rock for him to lean on the way he's a rock for me. Not Z. She can't claim any of that stuff. So why is he…flirting…with her?
It's so unfair. She thinks she can just waltz into SPD, become a ranger, and then steal my man? Oh no. I'm not going to let her do this. I've had my eye on Sky Tate since I was two years old, and I'm not letting him get away. I won't let him be stolen from me, either.
But he looks so happy. He almost never looks happy. I thought I was the only one who ever made him look like he didn't have a care in all the world. And I really hate that Z can, apparently, make him enjoy himself for once in his by-the-book life. I really do.
I made a comment about Sky looking like he was having a good time just hanging out and playing Frisbee, and of course Z has to put her two cents in.
"I just wish Sam were here to enjoy it," she said. How could she think about Sparky the nightlight when Sky Tate, stud extraordinaire, is still playfully keeping the Frisbee away from her? I know if I were getting that kind of attention from Sky I wouldn't be worrying about anyone but him.
As if I even think about anyone else but him.
