“Michael, come on – you know me. I’m like…the shyest person ever around guys,” she pointed out.

“Well yeah but…you were never shy around me!”

“I would have been if I was trying to ask you out!” she insisted. “Besides, for all I knew you just thought of me as your sister or something… and you were all…popular. You would have never been with a nerd-freak like me.”

“OH Syd you’re not a nerd-freak,” he sighed, pulling her closer to him. She gave him a ‘What are you, joking?’ look. “You’re not! Just because you graduated with a four-point-oh doesn’t make you a nerd-freak; it just makes you smart and you know what? Smart girls are really hot too.”

“Shut up,” she laughed, elbowing him lightly.

“I’m serious!”

“Uh huh…and it was a three point nine,” she told him.

“Huh?!”

“My GPA…it was a three point nine – I didn’t do so well my last semester,” she said sadly.

“OK, now you’re a nerd-freak,” he laughed. She tried to punch him playfully but he caught her arm and wrestled her back against the bed, where he gave her a searing kiss.

“Mm…wait…if we’re gonna…date we need…ground…rules,” Sydney managed in between the kisses Michael was giving her.

Michael groaned loudly as he sat up straight. “I was afraid of that…”

“Michael c’mon we have to do this right. I want us to go slow, date, and get to know each other in a romantic sense…”

“And not have sex,” he continued before she had a chance to. She smiled innocently and batted her eyelashes at him. “Fine, no sex.”

“Good,” she said before giving him a quick kiss.

“Alright now go take a shower first,” he sighed, leaning back against his pillow with his hands behind his head. She gave him a curious look. “Oh c’mon! If we’re not having sex the least you can do is walk from the bed to the bathroom naked so I can see ya!” he insisted.

Sydney rolled her eyes dramatically. “You’re such a freakin’ guy.”

“I know,” he beamed.
OMG, OMV!
they are soooooooooo the cutest couple besides the real deal! :P
Pheonix :P
 
Chapter 11
“Well there they are – the newlyweds!” Andrew announced with a grin when they all met up for brunch later that morning. “How was your night?” he asked suggestively.

“It was just fine; how was yours?” Michael asked casually, his arm still locked around Sydney’s shoulders.

“Jas almost made out with a stripper,” Steve said.

“Male or female?” Michael questioned her with a laugh. Jas gave him an irritated look.

“Male; he’s part of the Chippendales show.”

“Wouldn’t that make him a little old for you?” Sydney questioned.

“No he was twenty-three,” Jas said.

“And what a lovely career path he’s chosen…,” Sydney said with obvious sarcasm.

“Hey those beefcakes make good money! I’m thinking of trying out,” Andrew said while flexing his biceps. This immediately resulted in everyone rolling their eyes; Chippendales would only hire the rather portly Andrew if he was the last male on the face of the earth.

“Anyway, let’s go eat, shall we? I’m starved,” Michael proclaimed. As they walked into the restaurant, Michael ignored a snide, ‘I bet you are’ from Steve, which resulted in the rest of their group snickering behind their backs. Michael did not care though; he was happy and so was Sydney. That was all that really mattered.

“Do we have any plans for today besides tanning and gambling?” Jas asked as they ate.

“You mean you still have money left to gamble?” Sydney asked in an entirely serious tone. Though it was just forty-eight hours since they arrived, Steve, Tammy, Andrew and least of all Jas had not been at all frugal with their cash.

“Actually Jas is up about a thousand dollars,” Tammy pointed out.

“You’re kidding?!” Sydney and Michael gasped in unison.

Jas merely shrugged. “Turns out I’m really good at Black Jack when I’ve had at least one apple martini.”

“Wow…maybe we’ve been going about this thing all wrong. I mean, I sure could use some extra cash,” Michael said to Sydney.

“Yeah but you could also lose all you’ve got,” she reminded him.

“Maybe getting lucky will give you luck,” Andrew pointed out with a smile. Both Michael and Sydney rolled their eyes.

~*~

“So you finally deflowered Sandra Dee, huh?! Who would have thought that would happen!” Andrew exclaimed with a laugh, punching Michael playfully in the shoulder.

“You degrade the whole experience, you know that?” Michael said in a rather bitter way. All he wanted to do was change into his board shorts and meet Sydney out by the pool but, sadly, he had been intercepted by Andrew in the process.

“Just stating fact man. We’re all very proud and shocked. Man, you should have seen Jas’s face last night when she walked in there and saw all your clothes on the floor! It was awesome!”

“You saw us?!” Michael hissed. He was furious that their privacy had been violated in such a terrible way.

“Took pictures too.”

“WHAT?!”

“Kidding, always kidding,” Andrew laughed. Michael gave him an annoyed look before taking his shorts into the bathroom so that he could change.

~*~

“So you’re finally in the club, huh Sydney?” Jas asked when she sat down beside Sydney’s lounge chair, where she was stretched out and reading her novel.

Sydney did not look up from her book and it took her almost a full minute to answer with a sigh, “What club would that be?”

“The club of women with experience. Of course, you’re not a full member yet, but don’t worry you will be,” Jas smiled.

“How lucky for me,” Sydney said dully.

“God, Sydney, how can you say that?! I mean, sex is like the most amazing thing ever. Maybe Michael isn’t that good…which is seriously depressing because look how hot he is! Nah, it couldn’t have been him…I guess it was you,” she determined with significant amusement. Sydney continued to ignore her.

“Sad,” Jas signed in a patronizing tone. “With you and Michael getting your marriage annulled you’ll never have a chance to get better. I guess that’s for the best, though; it leaves Michael open to be with girls more… his type.”

“Too bad you won’t be one of them,” Sydney sighed casually. Slightly singed by this, Jas grumbled under her breath before leaving quickly.

A minute later, Michael walked over and sat down in the seat she vacated after giving Sydney a kiss on the forehead. “I passed Jas on the way here; she looked pretty pissed. Did some guy turn her down?”

“Nah she was bugging me but couldn’t get a rise out of me, so she left,” Sydney told him.

“What she buggin’ you for now?” Michael asked, becoming more and more irritated with his supposed “friends” with each passing moment.

“Not being good at sex,” Sydney said casually.

“What?!” Michael squeaked. “How would she know?! I don’t remember her being there!” Sydney laughed softly at this comment. “Ah well just ignore her, Syd. Just another thirty-six hours and we’ll go home and you don’t ever have to see her again.”

“Yeah I know and I’m counting on that,” she smiled at him. “I’ve got a question though… are we still going to proceed with the annulment now that we’re, you know, going to date?”

“Uh…aren’t we?” Michael asked with total confusion.

“Well, actually I was thinking maybe not. I mean, okay say – hypothetically – that things go really, really well for us. Wouldn’t we get married anyway?” she smiled at him.

Michael couldn’t help but laugh loudly at this. “Sydney have you lost your mind? I mean, I know we were a bit crazy to do this, but seriously we can’t continue…can we?”

“Think about it. If we end our marriage now it would be over. And, if later on down the road we find that we don’t work as a romantic couple, we would also have to end the marriage. We’d end up the same place. But if it worked out, then we’ve cut out the middle step,” she said with a slight laugh. He continued to look at her blankly.

“We can still get it annulled if you want,” she backtracked slightly. “I’m just saying that if you don’t want to then its okay with me. Besides how fun would it be to wait a month and then spring it on our parents?!”

“They’d kill us,” Michael laughed. Sydney laughed too, knowing it to be true. “Yeah, okay let’s do it.”

“You have a death wish?” she asked teasingly.

“No I’m serious. It’s gonna be kinda…fun,” he grinned.

“Totally fun,” she agreed.
 
That would be funny if they never told their parents and then a couple years down the road when their parents think that it is time that they get married, they can surprise them by letting them know that they got married BEFORE they started dating! :smiley:

Excellent Update. :smiley:
 
hey!~!
yay they're gonna stay as a married couple!
yay!
very good jannet!
so about my question last night...do you have a place on this site or somewhere for you're fan-fic stalkers?
pheonix :P
 
Chapter 12
For the remainder of their trip, Sydney and Michael were practically inseparable. They spent their days hanging out at the pool, they ate together, and then they would spend their evening curled up together in their bed. On their last night, though, Michael convinced Sydney to go down to the casino with him to do some betting, having a feeling she would regret it if she had done no more than pull the handle of a slot machine a few times. He even gave her twenty dollars worth of his own money so even if she lost she wasn’t losing her money.

After a few minutes on one machine, Sydney was about ready to give up. She had lost half of the twenty dollars already and felt it was stupid to lose even more. Michael convinced her to try once more though, and she did, reluctantly. On that pull, she won five thousand dollars and promptly screamed out, “Holy felgercarb!”

Michael could hardly believe it; all he could do was stare at the ticket that printed out and read $5,000. Meanwhile, Sydney was giddy, jumping around, clapping her hands and kissing him as a thank you for encouraging her to pull that one last time.

After receiving her prize money and tucking it safely away in her suitcase, she and Michael met up with the rest of their group, who seemed to be equally shocked Sydney won such a sum of money. They immediately began encouraging her to splurge on fancy items, but Sydney refused; that money was going towards rent and car repairs when she got home. Naturally, the group did not accept this very easily, but Sydney didn’t care; it was her money and she was going to spend it the way she chose.

It was not until the group of six was boarding their flight back to Virginia that Steve and Tammy pointed out that Sydney and Michael were still legally married. They were not sure if any annulment was in the works, either, since Michael and Sydney had spent the majority of the later part of their vacation away from the rest of the group. When the newlyweds informed the rest of their crew that they were not going to annul their marriage, at least not yet, this news was naturally met with shock and many jeers. Sydney and Michael didn’t care though; they were happy with the decision they made.


“So I guess we have to decide what we’re gonna tell our parents. I mean, do we tell them we’re together but not tell them we’re married…or do we keep the whole thing a secret for a ltitle while? What?” Sydney asked about half way through their flight home.

“Well we’re gonna be like… going out on dates and stuff right?” he questioned. Sydney nodded. “Right and sine we’re living at home odds are at least one of our parents will notice that…”

“Good point…but we don’t have to tell them right away, right? I mean, we can wait a little while…”

“Why are you so against them finding out?” Michael asked with a slight laugh. Sydney never had been particularly secretive in any respect and he was under the impression she did not go out of the way to hide things from her parents, especially from her mother, as she seemed to be doing with their relationship.

“It’s just… you know how protective my dad can be. He freaks out when I have any sort of boyfriend and I just… I dunno,” she sighed.

“Sydney I’m seriously not afraid of your father,” he told her with a laugh.

“No, I know I just… I didn’t want him to be hovering – which he will hover. I’m hoping to start looking for apartments or townhouses – you know, using my winnings,” she grinned. “You can help me if you want.”

“You want my help?” he asked with a smile.

“Well yeah I figure if this goes well…we’ll be moving in together since, obviously, we’re married so you should have a say in what kinda housing we’re living in,” she told him.

“Moving in together… I like that,” he grinned, slipping an arm around her shoulders.

“Slow down buddy – that’s not gonna be for a little while,” she reminded him.

He shrugged slightly. “Eventually is good enough; I’m not in a hurry.

~*~

After a very long flight, Michael and Sydney said goodbye to Steve, Tammy, Andrew and Jas, which really was not all that sad; they were glad to get away. Then, Michael drove Sydney home, where they said their own goodbyes, which was a lot sadder.

“How about we go on our first date tonight?” Michael offered with an enticing grin.

“That sounds nice but I think the jet lag is really gonna get me by then…how about tomorrow?” she offered. Michael agreed and kissed her quickly before helping her carry her luggage back into the house. Since it was a Friday afternoon no one was home at the Bristow residence; Sydney’s parents were at work and while her younger sister, Nadia, was off from school, she, apparently, was out somewhere. Because they were all alone, their kisses goodbye became a little heated until Sydney realized that Michael had them both sprawled out on her bed, at which point she put an end to their activities and made him leave, despite the fact that he was making sad faces at her.

Once he was gone, Sydney set to work on putting all her dirty clothes into the laundry and putting away the clean, unworn ones. As she was doing this, her younger sister arrived home and immediately asked, “What’d ya bring me?”

“Well I’ve got some hotel stationary you can have,” Sydney smiled at her.

The nineteen-year-old looked supremely offended. “You didn’t bring me anything?!”

“If it helps I didn’t buy myself anything either,” Sydney told her with a slight laugh.

Nadia grumbled. “What did you do out there?”

“Well…I drank, gambled – oh and I got married,” she told her very seriously.

Nadia snorted with laughter. “Yeah that’s a good one Syd. Who’d ya marry? Michael?”

“Maybe I did,” she said simply. She knew that her sister would never believe her, especially with the ‘drinking and gambling’ lie she fed her. Of course, she had gambled, but just because she happened to win five thousand dollars after a few pulls of a slot machine arm did not mean she gambled.

“Yeah, sure, okay,” Nadia rolled her eyes before leaving her sister’s bedroom. After this Sydney could not help but laugh softly. When her family finally did find out that she and Michael did elope in Vegas, they were all going to have heart attacks and it was going to be hysterical.
 
Too cute! Ah so close, one of these times Syd won't stop their heated make out sessions. hehe I thought Nadia would have been a little smarter, guess not! LOL EEEEK I hope Syd gets a house sooner rather then later with her winnings. ;)
 
Just wait until Jack finds out. He is going to have a fit about his daughter getting married. He really can't say anyting because they are old enough to do what they want.
