Chapter Seven
Rating: PG-13 (he-he)
Sydney had to be kept in the hospital for two weeks after her Caesarean section. Three days after her c-section, she really wanted to go home. She wanted to go back to the CIA, now that APO was disbanded because Sloane went bad. She wanted to find Sloane and kill that son of a b****. Brooke started to cry in Sydney’s arms, waking her from a trance. Vaughn was in a nearby room with Isabelle because if the twins heard the other one cry, they would start to cry. She slipped one arm out of the gown and slid it down, allowing Brooke to start nursing.
Danny hadn’t come to visit since Isabelle’s birth, and he missed her. He wasn’t sure what to do about his feelings for Sydney, he had never loved a woman the way he loved, and loves her now. He kept telling himself, “She is getting married,” over and over, but it never changed the way his heart flipped ever time he thought of her. So, he decided to come earlier this morning. He walked into Sydney’s room. Her breast was exposed, and he stared. She noticed him about thirty seconds after he walked in, and noticed the direction of his gaze. She turned bright red and pulled Brooke away and pulled up her gown.
“Sorry,” Danny said, embarrassed that he had stared so long.
“It’s okay,” Sydney said. She was confused; she didn’t mind being stared at by Danny. She to was confused by her feelings for Danny. She got up and put Brooke in her cradle.
“So, how are you,” Danny said, trying to get over what had just happened between them.
“I am so sore, from the c-section. Nursing also hurts.” She immediately regretted sharing such an intimate detail with him.
As she was returning to her bed, Danny stopped her.
“Sydney, I love you.”
“I love you too, Danny,” she replied startled.
“Not like a friend though, I love you like I loved you seven years ago.” Sydney was taken aback.
“Me too, Danny. But, we can’t act on it, we are both married to people we love and I haven’t seen you in almost seven years.
Over in the other hospital room, Vaughn was cradling Isabelle, who he absolutely doted on. He had excellent paternal instincts, and it showed. Anna Hecht walked in, wearing a not-so-modest shirt revealing a lot of cleavage. Vaughn jumped to attention and stopped singing “Clementine” to her.
“Vaughn, I am attracted to you, really attracted to you.” She said in a low sultry tone. She flipped her blonde hair.
“Anna, you seem like a nice person, but you are married!” Vaughn backed up. He stared into her light blue eyes. He put Isabelle in her cradle, and then Anna kissed him. He didn’t want it at first. Then he realized how good it felt, he closed his eyes and let her kiss him harder and more passionately. He began to up button her shirt and she walked to the door and locked it.
Meanwhile, Sydney and Danny were staring at each other. Neither of them knew what to do next. Danny put his arms around her, one on her the small of her back the other one, well, lower. He kissed her, she kissed him back. He locked the door.
