Good Riddance
Chapter One:
Recap
It was three months before Sawyer returned back to himself, pre-Abigail. Although, not fully over her betrayal, he understood what she was trying to do. He didn't serve a purpose for the Others. He figured that the others was picking them off one by one. Perhaps several of the others were in their camp, now. If it wasn't for Hurley, he wouldn't have figured out about Ethan. Maybe Hurley, was indeed helpful, despite everyone else's thoughts. He served a purpose.
Sawyer, although somewhat back to his old ways was far from changing as he once promised Abigail. He returned to his solitude outlook, keeping to himself mostly. Unless it came to Kate. Him and Kate formed a bond. Although Sawyer knew in his own ways that Kate always would choose Jack over him, any day. Who'd blame her? If I was her I'd choose him, too. With him her future was promised. With me, it's a day-by-day affair.
Kate and Sawyer spoke often, only if she wasn't being distracted by the doctor. Sawyer actually came to agreement that Jack wasn't that bad after all. He was though, in some ways, a nuisance. Sawyer knew that everyone on this island depended on Jack. While Sawyer was expendable. Jack still got quick one liners from Sawyer. He'd never stop teasing the doc. The only enjoyment he had left since all his stuff was on the raft.
Everyone was still left in the dark over the raft. No one knew what'd happened besides the little details that Sawyer could remember. Sun counted the days Jin had been missing. Everyday she started losing more and more hope that he had survived and was alive. She mostly tended to her garden trying to occupy her time and mind while waiting for any news. Charlie, Claire, and Aaron had become a small family. Charlie spent most of his time keeping after Aaron than himself. Shannon and Sayid had become closer, too. Even after the death of her brother, Boone. Locke had befriended Hurley. Possibly his newest apprentice after Boone died.
Sawyer sighed as he strained his eyes to look out at the horizon. Even though he hated those glasses that Jack and Sayid had made for him, he wish he'd have them to avoid the headaches. He mostly slept during the day, unless he got up to do some of the chores. He mostly chopped wood for the fire and if he had time left he'd go out for a stroll in the jungle. All trying to occupy his time.
