Hey, i was watching the sunset this evening...and this is what i came up with...
Sawyer
sighed heaving as she watched Kate stand along the shoreline. Even
though he could hardly see her face, as the sun was setting, creating
silhouettes of everyone around, he still knew it was her. Feeling the
soft sand shift underneath his feet he walked over to her.
"Hey
freckles" He said in an almost sheepish soundly voice.
"Hey"
She answered without looking over at him.
"What you doing?"
"Not much." He nodded, shoving his hands inside his pockets,
he was so used to acting like a jerk this was extremely difficult for
him.
"So…if you aren't doing anything, I was wondering, do
you want to go for a walk or something?" Kate looked at
him.
"Sure." She answered surprising both him and herself.
Silently they began walking down the sandy beach, away from everyone
else. As they walked a comfortable silence neither of them were sure
they wanted to break. They grinned feverishly at each other, like two
people who were on a first date smiled.
"So, how you doing?"
He finally asked, breaking the silence.
"I'm hanging in
there," She told him with a nod, "How about you?"
"I'm
alright…would be better if everyone on this damn island didn't
hate me, but I'll live." He replied with almost to much honesty.
"They don't hate you Sawyer." Sawyer lowered his eyebrows
and cocked his head at her.
"How much you want to bet that each
and every one of them has wished at least once that that jungle
monster would come and eat me up for lunch." Kate was silent for a
few moments.
"Well, I don't hate you."
"I know, and
thanks for that. You're exactly why I don't know how I'm
feeling tonight. You know what will help me decide?"
"I'm
not kissing you." Sawyer rolled his eyes.
"I was thinking
something more like this." He grinned mischievously and splashed
her with the waves of the ocean.
"You're so immature." She
rolled her eyes but allowed a smile to tug at her lips.
"Aw,
come on freckles." He grinned and next thing he knew he was covered
in water from head to toe.
"You're gonna get it now girl"
Kate laughed as he chased her through the waves. He grinned trampling
after her.
"Oh no you don't" He grinned as she ran towards
the shore. Quickly he reached forward, grabbing her around the waist
and pulled her back.
"Let go." She squealed, trying to run
forward, causing them both to loose balance and fall under the ocean
water. Sawyer resurfaced, gasping for air. He looked around for Kate,
and didn't see her anywhere.
"Kate?" He called out a few
times. Suddenly he felt something jump on his back.
"Hell woman.
Don't scare me like that." Kate laughed. "How'd you like me
to do that to you?"
"I think if you jumped on my back, it
would classify as drowning." She chuckled letting go of him.
"Aw
that's nopt fair, your in for it now!"
"You said that
already!" She said making a face and taking off. He grinned and ran
after her. In one swift movement he had her tackled to the ground.
All was silent for a few moments, as the looked at each other.
"Hey." He found himself saying from where he was lying on top
of her, never breaking eye contact.
"Hi." She replied, unable
to pull her gaze away from his. Wordlessly, he dipped in, placing his
lips on top of hers in a gentle kiss. She didn't push him off her
like he had expected, instead she kissed him back. Sawyer lifted
himself off her for a moment.
"I thought you said you weren't
gonna kiss me." He reminded her.
"Yeah, well, I changed my
mind." She said, putting her hand on his face and pulling him in
for more. This time she deepened the kiss, letting her emotions take
over. To someone watching far away, they would just look like two
silhouettes in the sunset, who loved each other very much, but to
them it just looked like they were at peace, for the first time in a
very long time.
The end.
Short and fluffy, I hope you guys like it! love ya all and please review!
