A Life Worth Living
Chapter 2: Denial
"You can't be serious….why would I do this?" Sawyer asked.
"Who knows what's going on in your head! I really don't think you should even be here!" Jack replied angrily. "Get out."
"What?" Sawyer yelled at Jack. "I'm not moving"
Jack tore his eyes away from Kate. He glared at Sawyer, breathing heavily in anger and frustration. Jack began cursing and yelling at the other man, before grabbing his shoulders and slammed his head against the cave walls.
Sawyer awoke with a splitting headache, trying to piece together what had just taken place. He lay in his tent on the airplane seat. Sawyer ran his hand through his hair, until he reached a moist spot on the back of his skull. Blood.
"Dammit" he cursed.
He grabbed his book 'Watership Down' and threw it against the side of his tent angrily.
"Kate…." he mumbled, and proceeded out of the tent.
"I suggest that you do not go back there" Sawyer heard a voice say.
He turned around. It was Sayid.
"Would you like to talk?" Sayid asked calmly.
"Not to you, not to anyone. Just her." Sawyer replied turning his back to Sayid.
"I know when I am being lied to. If you stay and talk to me, I may be able to prove to Jack whether you are lying or not."
Sawyer thought about this carefully. He decided to talk to Sayid because he knew that he wasn't lying.
"Okay" he said, turning to face Sayid.
He nodded and opened the tent flap, motioning to Sawyer to go in. They sat down on opposite ends of the airplane seat.
"Tell me what happened" Sayid asked.
"Kate was picking fruit and I came with her. Nothing really happened until we started to head back. I was behind her when we heard shots. One bullet hardly missed me, but I guess it must've hit her. She hit the ground, and I started shooting. I kept on shooting until I had not more bullets. Then I carried her back." Sawyer explained.
"So what you are telling me is that the Others did this?" Sayid questioned Sawyer.
"That's what I'm telling you" he replied.
Sayid nodded slowly thinking about what he had just been told. He then looked Sawyer in the eyes.
"I believe you."
A/N: So what did you think? Please R&R:D
