Hello lovelies, little bit of the lateness on the chapter, major apologizes, I was working on some Lost art (if you wanna check it out just go to the link from my page thingy here)…
Pssh anywho, this chapter is very short I apologize, I think only two pages, but tomorrows chapter is VERY interesting and VERY long, so warm up your…umm reading habits for tomorrow…Okay? Okay
Pangs of Guilt
Chapter 14
Just a Good Day
"I don't think I've ever seen you so happy," Sawyer called out to Kate, who was now wearing a larger size of pants.
She was firmly seated in the cool sand, it was now late January and the island had been hit with many heavy rainstorms. Today had been a break, though the sun was muted out and slain by viscous, dark clouds, the winds did not have their expected cold streak.
After being trapped in the caves with everyone for three days straight since the last thunderstorm, she was pretty anxious to go somewhere where she could walk ten feet without hitting a wall.
She looked over at Sawyer, normally he would've been bugging her, but she was the happiest she'd been in along time.
He had made his way through the dry sand and now stood beside her. She adjusted herself so she was leaning back into the sand, her legs stretched out, her scarcely expanded stomach poked out of her larger sized pants.
She looked up at him, he was waiting for some kind of rebuttal, some acid tipped response, but instead she sent him a great big, smile, probably the sweetest he'd ever seen.
He sighed angrily and plopped into the sand beside her, "Dammit Freckles, you're not even putting up a fight anymore," he exclaimed.
"I've got nothing to fight about," She smiled, "and watch your mouth."
He sent her a puzzled look and she added, "If you're going to swear around my
kid, I'm not bringing them anywhere near you," she paused and he smiled, "Last thing I need, is the first word that comes out of their mouth being 'Freckles'."
He chuckled slightly, "So that's it," he began, "Beaming mother to be, came down to the beach for some down time between whizzing and puking."
"When you put it that way, it seems so extravagant," she explained.
"You're really happy about this, aren't you?" he asked, turning to look at her.
"Of course I am, I'm going to be a mom," she added smiling, "And maybe I'll be a good one, make sure this kid's life doesn't end up like mine was…"
"Pretty easy for you to do, when you're stuck on a damn island," Sawyer added.
"We won't be here forever, I have a feeling…" she enlightened.
"Lord oh mighty, she had a feeling. Here comes the rescue planes and boats by the brigade, all because Freckles had a feeling," he exclaimed over exaggerating.
"Yeah, laugh it up now funny boy, because when they do come, I'll know it, because of my feeling," she answered.
"Man, I wish you'd get pregnant more often, you're so submissive," he informed.
"Which is probably what got me into this mess to begin with," she added giggling.
"Lookit you, making jokes at yourself," he shook his head, "I think the only bad thing about this kid, is that I've never been attracted to a pregnant woman before. Not like the Brit and the Aussie. But who knows you might change that," he said standing up.
"Yeah well just remember that while you're ogling, that I will be someone's mom soon," she explained standing up as well.
Sawyer took a look at his watch, "Shouldn't you be getting back to your baby's daddy at the caves?" he asked.
"Yeah I guess I should, I mean it took me twenty minutes to talk him into letting me come to the beach alone, he's probably worried sick," she smiled.
"Alright, I'll see you later then Preggers," he said then turned walking down the beach.
"Sawyer," Kate called out, he turned his head and she added, "I'll come and visit once and awhile, between whizzes and pukes," she yelled back.
She turned back and walked through the woods carefully, taking her time stepping over every lifted root, taking detours around ever semi-buried rock. Halfway back to the caves she noticed Jack up the path a bit.
She smiled, he was worried about her, and the blissful look on his face when he noticed her, was one of the most delightful things she'd ever seen. She continued to walk cautiously but he ran to meet her.
He stopped before her and casually asked, "How was your beach time?"
She smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning into him, "Good," she replied kissing him quickly, "Did you worry about me?"
"Just a bit," Jack explained wrapping his arms around her waist, "How are you feeling?"
She smiled and placed a hand on the tiny amount of skin left exposed between her shirt and her pants, "Today is a good day, no morning sickness, or cravings, just a normal day," she added.
"Yeah, well just remember these days when you're having the bad ones," he chuckled.
"I'm not promising anything," she answered with a sly smile.
They walked down the long winding path to the secluded beach, there was still an hour until supper, and Jack and Kate rarely got time to spend with one another alone. He was always busy, and she was always bored witless.
They took seat by the surf, the same exact seats they'd taken a week before, when they'd refound out the good news.
Jack held Kate's hand as they both stared mindlessly at the dying gray horizon; she looked over at him, and noticed the peaceful look on his face.
"What do you think they'll be?" he asked, turning towards her.
"What do I think who will be?" she asked back, not fully understanding the question.
"The baby, what do you think it'll be?" he questioned once again.
"Well that revolves around a lot of factors, if we get off this island…"
Jack chuckled, "No not what career they'll have, what gender, like boy or girl," he corrected.
"Oh, girl, definitely a girl," she answered immediately.
"You think?" he asked back.
"Why, you don't?"
"I think it'll be a boy," he answered.
"No, a girl, I have a feeling," she exclaimed smiling.
"Oh, you have a feeling," he chuckled.
She sighed and placed her hand to her stomach again. She still wasn't entirely over the delightful shock of being pregnant again.
Jack slid his hand around her waist and to her stomach as well. She smiled and finally settled with, "I don't care, as long as it's healthy."
"Well I know it's going to be healthy," Jack informed.
"Oh, and how do you know this, Dr. Sheppard?" she asked leaning into him. Even though they were talking happily, Kate still had her fears about the baby.
"I just have a feeling," he answered and kissed her cheek.
Awww just a good day with lots of FLUFF!
Evermore Yeah happy X-mas to you all everybody
Oreata Hyperness is good, What I usually do is draw, or write, or do Pilates with Ethan (he's so serious about it though), or work on my dance routines. Once again Charlie is having troubles with the Backstreet's Back dance, he can seem to understand to drop to the ground when everyone else does
Charlie: I'm a bloody rock God!
Sayid: Smack Charlie upside the back of the head it's pivot, step, twirl, funky chicken, not funky chicken, hammer dance, pivot, step, flail! YOU'RE HOPLESS!
Ethan: Quiet guys I can't hear the Pilates instructor
Locke: Didn't we kill him?
JasmineHRThe fluffiness was the fluffiest fluff that ever fluffed the fluff category of lost (we're even I used 'fluff' twice).
Yeah Locke and his proverbial ramblings. He's like Confucius on crack, I just had to poke some fun at that.
And Boone and Shannon, something might happen to Shannon in the future, something very character changing. She doesn't die (She's actually in the chapter I just wrote, umm let's call it chapter 53 ;) ) But something happens…Stay tuned for tomorrows update…
CrAzYhOrSeGiRl88 No I hate all of Sawyer the only thing I like is the Sawyer song, because it's ingenious and it makes me laugh, sings Did you ever see a Sawyer, kiss a Sawyer on a Sawyer, Sawyer Sawyer, tastes like Sawyer, Sawyer, Sawyer, Locke! YUSS! I had to dissect a rat in bio and I named it Sawyer and I sung that song to it!
ahem, anyways No I'm not loosing my touch, wait for the chapter after tomorrows, you will be unbelievably surprised, shocked to the extreme about the level of cliffhangerness that I can write at. (You'll also probably hate me for the day)
Whirlwind-2005 Yay I'm off school too! Highfive Yuss, lots, lots, lots more coming, though after it might slow down a bit because I have to write more. Can't wait for you're story to come up!
MusicMonkey88 Of course nothing can go wrong, nothing at all, like the dreams, there was no purpose for those what so ever, just crazy little dreams…
Miss Krux But if Charlie married Jack and Kate then it wouldn't be a real marriage because Charlie (though he's a Catholic) is not an ordained priest and even if he was I think you are only ordained in one state, or province, kinda like doctors and their hypo oath. There only registered in one of the states (I remember from watching ER) so yeah Jack's so busted, he can go to jail with Kate.
But it's like their married, because their never going to leave each other (or are they?) But if you disapprove of the bastard children now, hoo boy you're not going to like what's coming in the years to come.
GQSecondAct Aww I'm e-loved! I love you too, you are such a nice reviewer, and as long as everyone's as nice as you it's updating non-stop. Wow I'm glad you like the story so much, and take comfort in the fact that I'll be writing this until after I'm dead. Believe me lots, more funny/dramatic/down right sad character moments a coming. And thanks very much for the nice words and wonderful review!
Megawriter Alright, I'll update earlier, so that when you come home it's awaiting for you! I doubt they'll actually do this in the TV show though it would draw in mega viewers, but we have to keep the Jack/Kate faith.
Pink Pinker Gasp their baby is not Lucifer, it's adorable, believe me, I've met it (you guys will too just in a while) And lots more Jack/Kate fun fluff to come, but you have to throw some Sawyer in there to keep it off balance.
My daddy made it for me (he works at someplace but they do crap like that), because he knows I'm obsessed with Lost, and I wear it so much it's so worn already. And one of my best friends Jenn made me a Driveshaft shirt for my birthday. It says 'You All Everybody' on the front of it, and 'Driveshaft' on the back. And I have convict pants that are all orange with numbers down the side that I wear (I call them my Kate pants), and Finally got a ring for my middle finger because I tape it around non-stop like Charlie in the pilot and annoy the hell outta everyone!
Cfcs Thanks and there's lots more to come…
Leigh Wowie three thingies ;)
1st thingy- God I love you reviewers, when I think I can't feel anymore E-loved and get a review and I read it and it's yours! And I was like OMG I'm so e-loved! 2nd thingy- Yep only 16 years young, and the sad thing is I've only been 16 for two months! What! Yeah I know. I don't think I'm all that good at the writing, not as good as drawing (I've been doing that since like forever), but I'm so full of ideas that'll I'll burst if I don't get them out. I have another story in the works as well, a post rescue fic, but I've been working on this one so much that I haven't had a big chance to get it up and running. No need to cry, because I'm sure this story will get me all the way through high school (as long as they don't kill off Jack and Kate in the show).
3rd thingy- Yeah my tattoo, I will get my home drawn wing tattoos even if it kills me! (which it probably will, but I'm a glutton for pain so…)
Next Chapter OMG WHAT IS IT! Malaria? Influenza? Who knows but it's highly contagious…
Next Next Chapter Little bit o'Claire, a very important future discussion and cliffhanger that will live you breathless and oh so angry at me, (all hate mail and be sent through my agent)
