He dried my tear; he hugged me when all I wanted was a hug. He talked when all I needed as a word, and above all, he was there when I wanted to listened.
That is devotion.
That is pure understanding.
That is hope.
And I can resume all these feelings in one.
Love.
Plain and simple, love, not the fire on a burning touch, not the fear hidden inside, just Love.
All you want and feel being nothing at all.
“Syd… I understand where you’re coming from. You’re afraid that if you go to sleep you’ll wake up in your own bed and find out this was all a dream. But I can guarantee to you that it’s not. I’m here with you and I plan on being here for you for a long time. So… just sleep I’ll be here.”
I wake up to light that is coming from between the curtains and I look around, there’s no Vaughn. I remember his words from last night and I start to shiver.
He’s not here.
He promised he’d be here.
Vaughn’s gone.
And then I hear it.
The water ruining in the bathroom.
“Well honey I bet we’re about to change that.” Did he just call me honey?
“What did you just say Michael?” I bet the same thoughts are running through his mind.
“What did you just called me Syd?”
“You first Michael.”
“Oh no, you first honey.” I can’t help but laugh.
I give her a rose.
“One is for my love.” She didn’t expect this and surprisingly I didn’t expect myself to do this, but I knew the instant that man gave me the roses that I had to paint a memory in them.
“Two is for my devotion to you.” I give her the second rose.
Only one left.
Only one promise to make.
“Sydney with this last rose I give myself to you.” I see the tears in her eyes and I feel all the emotion inside too.
“I promise that till the end of my days I’ll be yours.”

You never know what’s coming. One day you’re all alone and on the other you’re in a room full of people.
The irony is that when surrounded by them you just want to be alone again.
Maybe there is only one person for you to cry for and there is only one person you want to hold you. Even though the other ones are always ready to help, they don’t know how.
While this person you trust says a single word and you already feel better, you have faith once again.
Some bring you down, some just are who they are, just no pretend, nor an attempt at being something they’re not just for you to feel better.
Because that will only make it worse.
Either feeling low or depressed I’ve always had someone.
Vaughn.
He dried my tear; he hugged me when all I wanted was a hug. He talked when all I needed as a word, and above all, he was there when I wanted to listened.
That is devotion.
That is pure understanding.
That is hope.
And I can resume all these feelings in one.
Love.
Plain and simple, love, not the fire on a burning touch, not the fear hidden inside, just Love.
All you want and feel being nothing at all.
They say its lame, they say it’s corny, they are embarrassed by it. It isn’t a feeling to feel ashamed of, it’s just love. You receive it everyday, you just don’t understand how or when.
Even I if you asked me when I started feeling this way I’d say I don’t know. But do I feel it?
I do.
Everyday I spend with Vaughn.
And I’ve never felt this grateful for anything in my life.
Never in a million years would I’ve thought of being here, in Venice- la citta d'amore- with Vaughn and we’re not on a mission.
That’s the amazing thing; no more counter missions, no more Sd-6, no more Sloane, and above all no more lies, just freedom and truth.
“Hey.” He says almost in a whisper.
Here we are, in a hotel room, alone, just the two of us and we’re just staring at the window watching the fantastic view of the city.
“Hey.” I say back.
“You should get some sleep.” He looks at me like I’ve been going through hell these last couple of years. And isn’t he right?
“I know I should but I don’t want to.” I really don’t want to go to sleep right now. I just want to be with Vaughn, I want to talk about everything and anything with him, just so I won’t fell asleep.
“Syd… I understand where you’re coming from. You’re afraid that if you go to sleep you’ll wake up in your own bed and find out this was all a dream. But I can guarantee to you that it’s not. I’m here with you and I plan on being here for you for a long time. So… just sleep I’ll be here.”
I can’t help but to get all teary-eyed. This man sitting here by my side has promised that he’ll never leave; his place will never become vacant. He promised he’ll be here for me, always period.
I remember laying my head in his arm and I feel asleep.
I wake up to light that is coming from between the curtains and I look around, there’s no Vaughn. I remember his words from last night and I start to shiver.
He’s not here.
He promised he’d be here.
Vaughn’s gone.
And then I hear it.
The water ruining in the bathroom.
He’s taking a shower. I sigh. Can I join him?
I can and that’s what I am about to do when someone knocks on the door.
I realize I’m still wearing my clothes from last night, hey, at least I’m dressed.
I walk up to the door and open it.
Room service.
I let the man get in with the food and he puts the tray over the table. I tip him and he goes away.
Exactly one minute after I close the door Vaughn gets out of the bathroom clad in only a pair of boxers. Can I just say that I have never seen a prettier sight in my whole life? That man is gorgeous, and he’s mine, at least I like to think he is.
I am checking him out while he pours himself a cup of coffee.
“Hey Syd.”
“Hey.” I get closer and closer and I do what I’ve wanted to do since I saw him coming out of the bathroom door. I kiss him.
“Good morning to you too.” He teases giving me one last kiss on the lips.
“So, what are our plans for today? I’ve been to Venice but only on a couple of missions, never got the chance to enjoy the city.”
“Well honey I bet we’re about to change that.” Did he just call me honey?
“What did you just say Michael?” I bet the same thoughts are running through his mind.
“What did you just called me Syd?”
“You first Michael.”
“Oh no, you first honey.” I can’t help but laugh.
“I guess we got that sorted out don’t you think?”
“Yeah, I like you calling me Michael.” He grins, a grin reserved only for me.
“Oh yeah?” I ask flirtatiously.
“Hm hm.” He kisses me once again and I’m in cloud nine and I think I don’t want to get down on earth.
I put my hands on his chest and I know what I want right now.
“Syd…” He moans in my mouth and I am sure that I’ll get what I want.
“Michael I want you.”
He stops kissing me and looks me in the eye.
I see doubt, I see fear, and I see lust.
He doubts I’m not sure that this is what I want; he fears he’ll hurt me and still, he wants me.
I give him my very own look and answer all of his questions.
“Michael…” he continues to trail kisses all over my neck.
“What Syd?”
My knees are trembling, my hands are shaking from anxiety and my mouth aches for his.
The closeness of his body near mine makes all my rational thoughts go away.
Through all this motion, my heart goes boom boom boom.
“Make love to me.”
This is enough for him.
He picks me up still kissing me and we make our way to the bed, there, he lays me as if I was glass, afraid I could shatter.
As he continues his moves as gently as ever I realize that this is right.
We are right.
The two of us deserve a second change.
Now that we got it along with our freedom I won’t let it go away.
His hands caress my hair and I feel it.
Love, is here once again and I pray it may never leave.
-*-*-
(Vaughn’s point of view)
I feel a light kiss on my earlobe and I am awake.
“You’re already awake? I thought I had tired you enough.”
“Very funny Bristow, the question is can you keep up with my stamina?”
“Oh you bet I can Michael.”
She laughs and I do the same.
“So, are we going to stay in bed all day or what?” She asks pressing a finger to my chin.
“Do you have a problem with that?” I chuckle and she smiles, such a beautiful smile indeed.
“No, I though we were going to see the city.”
“We are, get your cute butt out of bed and we’ll go out.” I say as I get up and start dressing myself.
“Okay, okay I’m going. Geez aren’t you bossy Michael Vaughn.”
After getting dressed and eating breakfast although it was lunch time Sydney and I make our way through the city.
Her hand is in mine and I feel content.
I see a man with a bunch of flowers approach us and asks:
“Una rosa per la signorina?” I obviously will not refuse.
“Darme tre invece per favore”
Sydney looks at me and I see the glee in her eyes, this is important for her, so it is to me.
“Grazie.” I say and pay the kind man.
“Era il mio piacere...una coppia nell'amore tutto merita.”
Sydney smiles at him and I understand why. She likes the fact that others notice that we’re in love. It makes out love greater.
I grasp her hand tighter and start running.
“Come with me.” I find the words coming right of my mouth.
“Where are we going?” She asks as I sway our bodies in the crowd.
We finally get to a quiet place and I see Sydney is blown away.
I brought her to this fantastic park where the light that comes in between the trees is as bright as the light of a single candle. The lake is serene and there’s just no one around.
Perfection, it comes close to describe the essence of this place.
I bring her closer to me and we sit on the bench taking in the amazing view.
Not even words could ruin this moment so I stay silent.
A million thoughts are racing in my mind and I question myself why it took me so long to understand this moment; a moment that holds nothing but memories.
All these memories are of each other.
I touch her cheek and she looks at me smiling.
I give her a rose.
“One is for my love.” She didn’t expect this and surprisingly I didn’t expect myself to do this, but I knew the instant that man gave me the roses that I had to paint a memory in them.
“Two is for my devotion to you.” I give her the second rose.
Only one left.
Only one promise to make.
“Sydney with this last rose I give myself to you.” I see the tears in her eyes and I feel all the emotion inside too.
“I promise that till the end of my days I’ll be yours.”
She kisses me and I meet realization.
I didn’t ask her to marry me but I know we’ll get to that someday.
I didn’t ask her to be mine because she already is.
Now, with three roses I give myself to her, all of me to all of her.
[TBC]
I really like this chapter so if it would mean the world to me if you quoted and reviewed.

Dammit!!! Sumthing bad happened and I knew it but i didnt want to believe it grrrBut then it happened.
I remember as if it was today but it was only yesterday.
I don’t know why I did it but I did and it’s done now.
She doesnt seem too happy by this but he does! Thats so sweet of him but *sigh* i can feel an argument coming on!“Now it is, but I’ve had a stomach-ache this morning and I also throwed up.” After the words come out of my mouth everything gets clear as crystal.
“Maybe you’re pregnant Syd.” He smiles, just like that. I can’t be pregnant. I can’t.
YES! WHAT DID U DO??? That was so so so sad, i just started bawling my eyes out, it was SO SAD!! I cant believe it, this better be resolved quickly!!! ARGH!!!!!!! I need S/Vness especially in this fic cos u write so beautifully!!“Vaughn, think about it!” We’re not married, I barely know if I want to spend the rest of my life with you!” I yell and then I see the look of pain in his eyes.
“You know what Sydney? This was a huge mistake! I gave all of me to you; you don’t think my intentions towards you are serious enough? I bought us a house for us to live together and you’re not sure if you want to spend the rest of your life with me? And just because I haven’t proposed? Is that it? Well here!” He throws me a little black velvet box and the tears in the corner of my eyes start falling.
“Take it Sydney! You can have the house and the ring but I don’t want anything to do with you anymore.”
He too is crying as he storms out of the room. I was cold hearted and made him think that I don’t want to be with him forever but I do. But my words didn’t come out right.
Oh god, what did I do?
