So I know I've been gone for a long time, and I'm sorry to say I am without a real excuse for staying away besides I've been busy. Not too busy mind you, just busy with exhausting work that kept me from my late night writing bouts, and that boys and girls is how chapters are made. Yeah so I hope this makes up for my disappearing act.

Peace!

Syler looped her arms through her sisters and set off at a brisk pace, not stopping to give the finger to the teenagers who whistled as they passed. But just walking at the same brisk pace she had been keeping since she had taken Lindsay from her apartment, nearly half an hour ago, she hadn't stopped since and she didn't seem to really be thinking of stopping any time soon.

"Sy?" Lindsay questioned, and she recieved only a glance out of the corner of her sistrers eye, and no verbal responce, "Is everything okay?"

"No!" She shouted finally stopping, and turning to face her sister, throwing her hands about, a crazed look in her jade eyes her tangle of wheat colored hair seeming crazier by the second, "Everything is most definitely not okay!"

"Well do you want to tell me what's wrong, because if we keep walking like this there is a good chance I'm gonna go into labor." She said dryly, but smiled at her sister as she patted her belly remembering again her due date.

Syler laughed softly, and took a moment to calm herself, there was no reason to be freaking out, especially if it involved her dragging her sister 8 months pregnant through the streets of New York City, with no real idea of a destination in sight. She needed to be rational about all of this.

"I'm in love with him." She said calmly, and Lindsay blinked three times before she responded. An explosion happened inside of Syler, her heart that had been racing slowed, her stomach that had taken up residence inside of her throat ever since she had first attempted to say those words to Don only one week before when she had seen him on the train platform. Every fear she had been feeling of saying it dispersed leaving in it's wake a euphoria she had never thought possible.

"You are? Sy, you're in love with Don?" Lindsay asked, excitedly as bounced on her toes.

"Yeah." She breathed, the smile she wore beginning to hurt her face, but she took little notice as she tried to comprehend the fact that she had finally said it to someone.

"That's great!" Lindsay said, her smile stretching over her entire face, "I can't believe Don didn't tell me!" She cried suddenly switching emotions.

"Oh him, yeah he doesn't exactly know yet." Syler shrugged, and shook her head, "Not big deal."

"Not a big... Sy you have to tell him." Lindsay said touching her stomach, and soothing her kicking kids.

"Of course I'm going to tell him, I just can't find the moment too, I mean when Danny told you it was sweet, and cute. I'm neither, what if I tell him it at the complete wrong moment, and what if he doesn't love me back, I don't want to do that, it's too soon." She said, talking herself out of it, with a shake of her head.

"Syler, of course he is in love with you. He looks at you like you are the only person in the world, there is no way that he wouldn't be." Lindsay said taking her arm, and pulling her back to her side and into a hug.

Syler nodded, "So how do you think I should say it?"

"As soon as possible, just get it out there. You're never gonna find the perfect moment to tell him, he'll never remember how you told him in the first place, just that you did tell him, and that's it is true." She smiled at her baby sister, now all grown up and in love.

"Right I've just got to say it, it shouldn't matter how it happens just that it happens."

"Exactly."

The phone in Syler's pocket buzzed and she smiled down at it's caller ID, "It's Don," She told Lindsay, "Hello."

"Hey, it's me. Where are you?"

"Downtown, I was actually about to see what you are doing, I've got something to tell you."

"Great, me too, so I'll meet you at your place then?"

"Sounds good."

"Okay, I'll see you there."

"Bye."

"Bye"

Replacing the phone she looked at her sister, "So Don's on his way to my house..."

"Then what are we still standing here for, you've got a man to see." She said smiling.

XxXxXxX

Syler had never been so scared to open a door in her entire life. She wasn't sure how long she had been standing there, at least five minutes she thought, and looking down at her doorknob she sighed, she could do this, she would do this. Turning the key she had shoved in there before she paused to think about it, she opened the creaking door.

Son was standing in the hallway, and looking at her confused, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, why?" She asked, closing the door behind her.

"Well you've been standing outside for seven minutes, I was just wondering."

Syler looked sheepish and smiled, "It's nothing don't worry about it. How was work?"

He tilted his head at her, but shook it a moment later, "I don't really want to talk about work, I have something really important to tell you. I've actually been trying to tell you for a while."

"I've got something to tell you too."

He took her hand and headed for the couch she sat next to him, tucking her legs underneath her, and turning to face him, she smiled, she could do this, she would do this, it was too important not too.

"You said you needed to tell me something?" Don asked, playing with her fingers.

"Yeah." She said, watching him massage her pointer finger, and move to her pinkie.

"You first." He said assuredly.

"No that's okay you can go first you said you had been trying for a while." She reasoned.

"Seriously, you." He told her, squeezing her thumb for emphasis.

Syler laughed, and nodded, "Okay well. We've been dating for a little over a year now," He nodded, and smiled, "And lately there have been some things that I have been thinking about, things that you need to know. Things that are about us, and I just don't want you to take it the wrong way, so I've been putting off telling you. But not anymore, I need to tell you or I'm going to explode. Don I..."

"I'm in love with you." He said quietly.

BLAM! So despite my sisters disbelief he did say it. I had Don say it yes it's true, I just couldn't get over how good those words would sound falling from his O-so-kissable lips. But yes it has happened, and all of you will just have to give me some very convincing incentive to put up Sy's reaction to this news. (Incentive = REVIEWS!)
