Prologue
Lilly stared blankly across the ocean as memories of the past few days flooded her. She thought about her family she was headed home to see. She thought about her friends she hasn't spoken to for months. She wanted off the island but didn't think it was happening anytime soon.
"Hey." Lilly turned to see the only person on the island she knew, Ryan.
"Hi Ryan." She turned back towards the ocean and Ryan sat himself down beside her. "What you up to?" Lilly asked. The wind picked up, blowing her short red hair and messing it up.
"What's there to be doing?" Ryan asked with a smirk on his face. Lilly shot him a look and he straightened his face. "Just coming to see how you are. You seem very sad."
"Well… we're all kinda stuck on this godforsaken spit of land without our families. Well, besides those guys." Lilly said, gesturing towards Shannon and Boone. Shannon was lying on the beach tanning and Boone was trying to coax her to do some work. She also saw Michael trying to talk to his son Walt. She looked farther down the beach and saw Sun and Jin talking under a big piece of metal from the plane. "No one knows anyone else here, besides us. And we've been told there's basically no chance we will be rescued… at least not anytime soon." Ryan considered what she said.
"True, but think about it. You have that chance to start fresh you always wanted." Ryan had a tendency of being an optimist at times.
"I never thought it would actually happen. Not like this. I went to Australia to try and start over."
"I thought you just wanted to visit Australia?" Ryan thought out loud.
"Well yeah, I wanted to see Australia, but I also just wanted to get away from home for a little while. That 'little while' has ended and I just want to get home."
"So do I." Ryan stared at the ground, Lilly's pessimism finally won.
