Once Upon a Dream Part VI
It seemed that Sydney's time at Xavier's flew by quickly and she soon found herself starting at the calendar on Faye's desk New Years Eve. She would be heading home on the second and starting school on the fifth.
She sighed and tugged at the sleeves of her shirt before looking at the clock.
Eleven forty-five.
There were only fifteen minutes left in the year and most of the inhabitants of the mansion were downstairs partying it up. With another sigh Sydney turned and walked down the stairs and headed outside.
It wasn't that she didn't' want to bring in the New Year with her friends; she just didn't want to see the many couples making out.
Friends.
She stopped by the fountain and contemplated the meaning.
She had never really had true friends before this. The concept itself seemed strange and foreign to her. Would they all forget her once she left and they got back to their regular lives?
All this worrying was beginning to give her a headache and she had long ago run out of her meds.
"Ain't it a bit late for you to be strolling out in the yard?" a voice asked from behind Sydney making her jump.
Logan stepped out from the shadows and into the moonlight.
"I just needed some time to think." She replied turning around and watching the water fall.
"Want to talk about it?" he asked his voice gruff.
Sydney knew Logan hated emotional crap and the whole sharing feelings things so Sydney simply shook her head.
"Nah I'm okay." She replied.
The countdown to the New Year began inside.
Ten…nine…eight…Logan moved closer to Sydney.
Seven…Six…Five…he took hold of her hand, pulling her closer to him.
Four…three…two…his lips bent down towards hers and as soon as the one and Happy New Year was shouted, his lips captured hers in a sweet kiss.
It didn't last long but for Sydney it was magical.
Logan released her and disappeared back into the shadows leaving Sydney standing there, her fingers touching her lips and a smile playing on her face.
Her first kiss was given to her by her protector.
By the man she loved.
Reviews would be very much appreciated!
