Ok this is my first fan fiction I have ever written so it may not be brilliant but please read and see what you think. The first chapters kinda about Jack/Kate/Sawyer. It has Claire and Shannon in but there will be other characters written about because to begin with this was gonna be a Kate/Sawyer fic but if anyone else would like more characters just say and I would do it.

Kate was walking through the school halls of Dharma High School, everyone was busy in their classes while she wandered the halls of her new school it was all different to her old school she had to go to a Mr. Locke's office and have a brief talk with him before she could start her school day properly. She had been wandering the halls for a few minutes hoping to find his office when she came across a student walking through the halls he was tall, dark hair, dark eyes and had a jock jacket on. He approached her and she was feeling worried about this guy walking up to her

"Can I help you?" he asked

Kate looked down first and then raised her head "Yeah I need to find" she looked down at the paper she had been given "a Mr. Locke I have a meeting with him"

The guy nodded his head "ok well to begin with your heading in the completely wrong way his office is down there and on the right" he gave her a friendly smile which she replied back with one "thanks." When she started to turn around he shouted to her "I'm Jack by the way" she turned back round to face Jack and smiled "I'm Kate" and then headed off to Mr Locke's office.

After a small walk to came to his office, she knocked three times and then was told to come in. She opened the door and saw a man in around his late forties sitting down at a desk doing some paper work. "Please take a seat" he instructed she did what he said. He had her file on his desk and after signing something he picked it up and looked at it. "Well Miss Austen your school file looks pretty impressive you were keeping up all your grades at your old school and didn't get into much trouble" he kept nodding reading further into her file.

"Ok well I would just like to say welcome to Dharma high, I hope you enjoy this school as much as your last and keep up with those grades you were achieving, you have your class schedule and all the information you need am I right?" he questioned.

She nodded replying "Yeah I have it all in my bag"

"Ok well enjoy your day Miss Austen" he finished she stood and walked to the door closing it behind her.

She took a letter out of her bag and opened it looking through the sheets in the hall way she found her locker and was given the combination for it. She entered the combination for her locker and tried to open it but it was no use she thought she had entered the combination in wrong but tried it again and it wasn't working. 'Why did this have to happen to me' she thought to herself she thought she could go and ask someone for help maybe Jack who she met earlier but no one was around they were all in class. She tried her locker again getting furious with it now

"Need some help here?" She heard a southern voice asking her if she wanted help she turned to face him and he was smiling showing a pair of cute dimples. Kate gave him a shy smile

"Yeah I could do with some thanks" he had noticed that she was trying to open her locker and she was given the one which everyone had problems with.

"Put your combination in sweet cheeks." Kate started to put her combination in and then he started to bang her locker with his fist and after one hit it swung open. She looked at him with shock wondering what he was doing and when her locker opened she realised what he had done.

"Thanks" She gave him a thankful smile and he could notice that this girl had the most adorable freckles on her face. He smiled back showing his dimples "Anytime freckles" He then started to walk down the hall way back to his class.

After she had got her locker sorted and managed to get a few books for her classes she headed to her first class of the day she looked at her class schedule which read 'Science Mr. Artz' she looked back up and then started to walk to her class 'great science if my day didn't start of bad enough' she thought to herself she had never really like science but she just managed to get her work done to the best she could.

She got to the room and she knocked and walked in she went up to the teacher and handed him a piece of paper he then nodded at the piece of paper and got the classes attention "ok everybody we've got a new student with us Katherine Austen"

She heard him call her Katherine she hated being called that "Its Kate" she told the teacher.

"Ok Kate" he told the class "If you just wanna find a spare seat then we can carry on with our lesson" While searching for a seat she saw the guy that helped her with her locker was in there watching her every move. She blushed a bit at him keep staring at her so she lowered her head looking down at the floor while walking to her seat. She found herself sitting next to a guy with dirty blonde hair and a dark hoodie he wasn't really paying attention to Mr. Artz he was too busy writing something that looked like song lyrics in his notebook.

"Ok so what does anyone know about how the camel has adapted to live in hot, dry conditions" Mr. Artz asked his class not a lot of them seemed bothered with the question he asked or listened to what he had asked. There was one person who was paying attention though and raised his hand to answer the question and it was Jack he was always at the top of his classes.

"Jack?" Mr. Artz asked him "The camel has adapted to its environment by storing water in its humps to help it stay hydrated and can be stored for a long time" Jack answered he went into deep detail for answer but he always did.

After 20 minutes of boredom for most of the class the bell rang and they all gathered their things and rushed for the door. When Kate got out of the door she was greeted by two girls Claire and Shannon. "Hey you're the new girl yeah?" Claire asked Kate nodded and replied "Yeah kinda my first lesson just." Shannon then butted in "Well I'm Shannon and this is Claire and we just wanted to say hi and wondered whether you wanted to hang around with us and some others because we know how hard it is to make friends here." She explained to Kate

"Yeah, I was the new girl here once. I moved from Australia 2 years ago" Claire explained. Kate wasn't really taking it all in but just kept nodding as if she was taking it all in. "So what's your next lesson?" Shannon asked. Kate looked at her time table "Erm... I've got English" she told the two girls

"Great us to" Shannon screamed "Who with?" She asked. Kate looked at her timetable and then answered "A Mr. Eko" Claire clapped her hands with joy "That's the same as us." Kate smiled and looked at the two hyper girls in front of her. The three of them then started to walk to their next lesson together they walked into the classroom and they took they found 3 spare seats.

"Ooh, I've just thought Kate doesn't know that the school dance is coming up in 2 weeks time." she told Claire, Kate was also listening to her "What Dance?" she asked. "I'm glad you asked that" Shannon sounded exited now to talk about the dance while everyone was walking into class "Well its one of the biggest dances of the year. It's the homecoming dance!"

Claire then butt in "It's the homecoming week and there's the rally tonight so you've gotta come to that, then we have the homecoming game on Friday night and then after that we've got the homecoming dance." She started explaining until Shannon butted in on her this time

"Our school is going against Otherville High our biggest rival" Kate who wasn't really bothered with this news just kept nodding half-heartedly listening "They have always won us but this year we think we're gonna win we have a new football captain" After the last two words were spoken Jack walked in Kate looked over and noticed him and remembered from seeing him earlier he had helped her. He smiled at her also remembering her from earlier it was quite obvious to everyone from that smile that he liked her she smiled back and then turned back into Shannon and Claire's conversation but Claire had changed the subject now

"OMG!! You he likes you" Claire was going quite hyper now, one of the most popular guys in school liked Kate. Kate laughed a bit and denied it "No he doesn't" she defended herself but it was no use it was now two against one "Yes he does" Shannon added, she gave up but just in time Mr. Eko walked in "Ok can we all start to calm down now and start some work." The class started to hush and started to work and they were reading one of Shakespeare's sonnets when they were disturbed by someone walking through the door late acting like he had done nothing wrong.

The whole class looked at the door to see who it was and Mr. Eko spoke "James Ford nice of you to join us classes began over 15 minutes ago" Sawyer just looked at the teacher and replied "Guess I need to get a watch then." They were a few laughs from the class and then he then gave his signature smile showing his dimples, Kate recognised him from earlier helping her with her locker when he saw her she just looked back down into her book trying not to look back up at him. "Take a seat James." The teacher spoke and Sawyer went and took a seat the only seat available was in front of Kate. Mr. Eko started to carry on reading the poem and Sawyer only realised he didn't know what was being read so he turned round to speak to her in a whisper "Hey freckles" he smiled at her and she blushed a little at him calling her freckles "You know where we are? Or more important what the hell we're reading?" She smiled at him and whispered back "Try getting your poetry book out and look at page 42" Of course their whispering had caught Claire and Shannon's attention so they were watching while pretending to be reading. Sawyer smiled once again "Thanks freckles." He then turned round to get his book out and find the poem. The girls then got back to reading the poem now that the conversation had finished and they had nothing to take their attention away from the poem which neither of them really understood with it being written in old English.

Lunch had then come round and everyone was making their way into the cafeteria hundreds of children walking in. Claire and Shannon walked to their usual table followed by Kate, there were a few people already sat round there Kate recognised the one guy from science he was tapping his knife and fork on the table trying to make a beat. There was a guy who was on the slightly chubby side but welcomed the girls over "Hey dudes" he then saw Kate he hadn't seen her around before "who's that?" he asked Claire looked at Kate and then back at Hurley "It's Kate she's new" she then looked back at Kate and then welcomed her to everyone pointing to each person so she knew who was who "Kate this is Hurley, Charlie, Desmond, Sayid, Jin, Sun, Libby, and Boone" They all smiled at her she smiled back. The three of them sat down at the table Claire got out a couple of sandwiches and everyone knew what was on them. "That's nothing new." Charlie joked with her gesturing to her peanut butter sandwiches. "I like peanut butter ok" she shot back, everyone started laughing at Claire's comment knowing that she has liked peanut butter ever since she has know them and used to pride herself on being the only Australian who loves peanut butter.

Everyone had finished eating their dinner and Kate was lost in her thoughts she couldn't believe that her first day wasn't going as bad as she thought it could have been she had made a nice group of friends her classes weren't that bad and everyone seemed friendly. She then started to peer out of the cafeteria window to see James the guy who had helped her today and she also helped him. Everyone was talking round the table about the homecoming, well the girls were mostly talking and the boys were just listening to them go on about things. "So what do you think Kate?" Sun asked. Kate was then took from her thoughts and she didn't really have an opinion on what they were talking about because she wasn't really listening to them "I think I'm just gonna get some fresh air if its ok with you guys" she explained. Everyone nodded and there were a few 'yeah's' coming from people. She stood up and headed to the school fields.

When she was out there she saw Jack who was playing football with some of his friends. There were a lot of girls watching them play she just thought they were getting some practise in for Friday's game. She carried on walking watching the game until she bumped into someone. "Watch where you're going sweet cheeks" she heard the southerners voice and then she realised who she had walked into. "Sorry" she told him taking a few steps back and looking at him. "So watcha doing out here on ya own and not with the Brady bunch?" he asked Kate looked a bit confused "The Brady Bunch?" she asked. Sawyer shook his head "You know them lot in there" he said pointing his head in the direction of them through the windows. "Oh" Kate replied now understanding what he was going on about "I just wanted some time on my own." She then noticed him grinning widely "What James?" She decided to call him by his name. "One my name ain't James it's Sawyer and two it's sweet that you thought you would come and spend ya time with me" Kate laughed a bit at his last comment "You think a lot about yourself cowboy or should I say Sawyer." She joked

She then heard someone walking over to them asking "Is everything alright over here?" She turned around to notice it was Jack walking over to them he had finished playing football and was now coming over to them. "Ain't no problem here" Sawyer answered, Jack shot him an angry look "I wasn't talking to you I was talking to Kate" he then looked at her "Everything ok?" She took a quick glance at Sawyer and then back at Jack "Yeah Jack everything's fine I was just having a chat with Sawyer." Jack nodded taking in what she was saying. There was an awkward silence between the three of them until Kate spoke "I'm gonna be heading back in everyone will be wondering where I got to I'll see you both later" and with that she started heading back into the cafeteria.
