These Words, From My Heart...
Hello all..I apologize for the delay in posting new chapters. But in my absence I have finished the story on my computer, so I will be posting hopefully a new chapter twice a week. I know this one is short but it is meant to be a connector to very large and important plot twist coming up. I hope everyone likes it and I'll have another one up by the end of the week.

Sidney stared out the window of the taxi that was taking her home. Vaughn has said that he could drive her home but she insisted on going home alone. After their last encounter, she really didn't want to be around him. The taxi cab pulled into her driveway and stopped. "That's $25.50, sweetie." She had the man the cash, "Keep the change." She grabbed her suitcase and exited the cab.
Once inside she left her suitcase by the front door and threw herself down on her sofa and closed her eyes. She felt so tired, like she hadn't slept in weeks. "I hope your not planning on falling directly asleep." She leaped off the couch and spun around to see Sark leaning against her wall. They stood there for a moment just staring at each other. Sidney felt the tears well up in her eyes and before Sark even saw them, he had his arms wrapped around her. "Shhh, It's okay. Let it go...let it go." Sidney began inconsolably sobbing in his arms.
They sat there like that for what seemed like an hour. Sark gently rubbing his hand over Sidney's back, Sidney with her head resting on his shoulder. "I missed you. I don't know why but I did." "I know...I can't explain it either. I felt empty without you the whole time I was in Japan." Sidney lifted her head. "This can't be a good thing. Your my enemy and instead of shooting at you all I want to do is be with you. Sark dropped his head on Sidney's, "I know. That's why I have something to say to you." Sidney lifted her head, "What?"
"Sidney,.....wow there is no easy way to say this, so I'm going to just come right out and tell you." "Tell me what, Julian?" "Sidney, I'm British Intelligence. I'm working undercover as an operative for the past 10 years." Sidney just sat there watching him and he confessed this to her. All along he had been one of the "good guys". He lied to her, and yes it was for his job, but he lied to her. "Sidney, do you have anything to say?" Sidney raised her head and looked in directly in the eye. She slapped him so hard that she left a palm print on his face.
"Well, that's one thing." Sark replied as he gently rubbed his cheek.
