A/N: My first Lost fic…its kind of short and pointless but what the hell, right? This is supposed to be around 2nd season.

Disclaimer: I do not own Lost sadcry. All of the characters and settings belong to the wonderful production crew/writing staff of Lost and ABC.

Sawyer sat quietly in front of a smaller bonfire closer to the edge of the jungle than the other survivors usually liked. He was currently glaring at Jack, who had the nerve to try and push on Sawyer's territory. It was pretty obvious that Jack was trying to get on his nerves at this point, no one else would build a fire so close to Sawyer's after the whole "Sheriff Incident" occurred. But Jack was paying no attention to Sawyer. And that pissed Sawyer off even more.

A rustle in the foliage behind Sawyer distracted him from the staring contest he was having with Jack's back. It was Kate, of course.

"Well, well, Freckles. I thought it was against the good ol' Doc's rules to be in there after dark," Sawyer smirks at her,

"Hi, Sawyer…" she replied simply,

She smiled back at him and sat down next to Sawyer.

'Away from Jack, not closer,' Sawyer noted silently.

And he was thrilled at this small revelation. There was no way that Kate hadn't seen Jack sitting there. In fact, Jack-o was probably staring right back at him right now, wishing he hadn't decided to intrude into Sawyer's personal space. Sawyer hoped to God that Jack was seeing this; was seeing that, for now, she was choosing him over Jack.

'For now…' Sawyer thought solemnly, 'She'll be back with Jack any day now.'

But now was enough for Sawyer, because for now Sawyer had possession of Kate. She has chosen him over Jack and even though he knows it won't last, this moment will be enough to carry Sawyer through the rest of his stay on the Island. Kate was his. His.Not Jack's.

Kate inched ever so closer to Sawyer as they sat there in the sand. Because he was hers now.

'Even if he doesn't know it.' Kate thought to herself.

And Jack was pretty pissed about it.
