CHAPT. 2

Shannon headed back to her shelter and went directly to her clothes. She was going to look good for this party, even if she was going with Sawyer.

She sighed and began picking out what to wear. She wanted something nice andthat she hadn't worn a lot, but thats kind of hard to do when your stuck on a freakin island.

She settled for light pinkhalter top and a blackmini skirt. She picked it up and put it on her 'bed'

"Shannon?" She could never mistake that accented voice. It was Sayid. She felt her stomach do a little flip. How high school was she?

"Hey" she walked out of the shelter and over to where he was standing. "Whats up?"

"Can you come help me translate the maps?"

Yes! Yes! "Ummm..well, I have to get ready for the party tonight, but I guess I could for a little while."

As much as she loved the idea of her and Sayid, her and Sawyer just seemed to connect. Plus, she kind of liked the idea of her and Sawyer. But she still wasn't ready to give up on Sayid & her.

So she went and translated the maps with Sayid.

She looked up from the map he'd given her and noticed the sun begining to set.

"I should go get ready; the party will be starting soon & I promised SawyerI wouldn't stand him up."

"Your going with Sawyer" he asked obviously interested. She tried to figure out why he was so interested, but his face was unreadable. She figured it was just because he hated Sawyer, not that she secretly hoped he wanted to go with her.

"Yeah." Shannon began heading to her shelter. "He asked me to go with him earlier today. Are you going to the party Sayid?"

"I don't know." He aswered honestly. He would like to go, but was not sure if he could handle seeing Shannon & Sawyer there together.

He cleaned up his stuff and went off to find the one person he could talk to and trust. Jack.

Shannon went to changed and put on a little bit of eye shadow, eye liner, & lip gloss; amazing she had any left. Just as she was finishing up, Boone came into the shelter.

Shannon decided to try and avoid a fight so she could just leave and go find Sawyer. "Hey Boone. You going to the party?"

"Well I can see you are. Who are you going with Shan?" He said, waiting for her to say no one. He took a sip from his water bottle.

"Sawyer"

Boone nearly choked on the water he was drinking when she said that. "What?" He asked hoping he heard her wrong.

"I'm going with Sawyer. Now I better get going so we're not late."

This wasn't suppose to happen. She was supposed to say no one so he could offer to go with her.

"Hold on" he said harshly as he grabbed her arm. "I saw you with him again."

"Well of course I was with Sawyer. I'm going to be with him in a little while too. Besides, how else would he have asked me to the dance"

"No, you were with the Arab guy...Sayid." Boone accused.

"Yeah, he needed help translating & you know as well as I do that when it comes to French, I'm all we've got."

"Shan, I don't---"

She cut him off & walked over to him. "Now I have to get going now. See you later?" She gave him a kiss on the cheek then turned and headed for the door.

"Yeah, I'll see you later." He answered softly as he put his hand up to his cheek where she just kissed.
