SAWYER

Sawyer sat up against a thick tree trunk slowly hitting his head back on it angrily. It hurt but he knew that he deserved it. Everything in his life had been destroyed, mainly by himself and he had ruined others lives as well. Yet again he had upset himself and someone else. He deserved all that God could throw at him.

If God even exists...ain't he meant to be a good guy? What happened? He forgot to give ME anything good didn't he? You'd think after all the years of crap I've had, something GOOD would happen. He thought nastily and he went back to punishing himself, hitting his head against the tree.

thud-thud-thud-thud he went while he gritted his teeth, the wind blew his hair off his face and he snarled at it. It had been so hot a while ago, and nowit was dark and stormy? Ridiculous.

"You-Bloody-Idiot" he said to himself in time with his the thumping noise. He stopped and looked down angrily.

What did I think I was doing? He asked himself. It's not her fault, but now she thinks it is. I just HAD to ruin things didn't I? Had to muck things up AGAIN. I always do that. Just when she was kinda...liking me. I guess its pretty much over now, I've gone and ruined it.

He asked himself.

He could still see her tears and he regretted the fact, that this was the second time that he had made her cry. He hadn't meant to, he was just so annoyed with her care for Jack and their current situation, although it wasn't her fault at all.

He knew Kate had been upset, but he also knew she would come back. He knew that after and hour or so she would come back, and they would be off again, so he waited for her, for her return to him.


KATE

She had been walking for nearly 3 hours, her tears still falling down her face, and her vision was still blurred by them. She blew one of her wet curls off her face and wiped her eyes again. Her fingers smelt distinctly of salt now, and she grinned.

Funny, you'd think that after this long, I'd have stopped crying she laughed bitterly.

She stopped in her current position, her head pounding dully against her skull and her shoelaces untied. She hadn't bothered tying them up, she had just walked blindly on, wondering what could have been, if she hadn't wound him up.

Ugh this is hopeless. I'm running through here, no idea where I'm going, no supplies and still worrying about the fact that Sawyer might get himself killed. Why I'm worried, I have no idea. He was out of order. But...then I guess that's the way Sawyers' mind works. He gets upset so he lashes out for defence. She thought sadly as she realised her current situation, and wondered what was going to happen now.

She sighed heavily and leaned against the tree breathing deeply. She closed her eyes and noticed how badly she wanted to fall asleep.

Wow,...I'm really tired. Must be this headache. She thought sleepily as she desperately tried to blink her eyes open again , but her eyelids felt like lead. She forced them open, surprised at how she had nearly fell asleep.

She wanted water, she really did, BUT stupid as she was, she hadn't grabbed supplies before walking off. Sawyer was probably using them all now, thinking she was dead and gone.

This is hopeless. I'm gonna find Sawyer...

So, hating herself for her being so pathetic, she turned and walked slowly back against the direction she had been going in. She loathed herself for being defeated, but she had to find him if she wanted to survive.

It had got a lot darker and it wasn't so hot. In fact, there was a strong breeze and the clouds were stormy and dark.

Heh, Talk about ironic she thought as she glanced up at the rumbling clouds. She picked up the pace, but she took a step and the pain in her head flared up again.

Dammit, guess it's not just a headache then. She thought angrily and she clutched her head, then, soft patters of rain were on her skin and she groaned at her luck. It would happen to rain when she was alone in the jungle with nothing but jeans and a t-shirt on. It had been so hot earlier, what was happening?

She stepped forwards again, but as soon as her shoes touched the floor, the world spun around her. She grabbed her head again, feeling dizzy but it was too late. She blinked heavily before all went dark, and she collapsed on the floor.


SAWYER

He was worried. Worried to death in fact, just WHERE was she? He knew she needed time, to sort her head out, but he had honestly thought she would be back by now. He glanced unhappily at the grumbling clouds as slowly, but surely, it started raining. He stood there for a while, before he shook his head and headed over to the bag.

He knew he should stay and wait for her to come and find him, but why wasn't she back yet? It had been nearly 5 hours, or so his watch said. Time had ticked slowly for him. Every minute he had thought of her, and it was killing him. He couldn't stand it anymore, he NEEDED to find her.

He dumped everything in the bag and trudged off to where Kate had ran to He ran blindly through the rain as it got heavier and heavier, the rainclouds rumbling above him. He saw Lightning in the distance and groaned at the thought of him or Kate being struck

What if something has happened to her? There are kidnappers, monsters, polar bears and god knows what else in here. She could have been hurt, what was I thinking? I should NEVER have let her wander off alone. I shouldn't have upset her. I shouldn't have-...

He shook his head and tried to stop blaming himself. He needed to find her, not wonder why he had upset her. It was pouring now, the rain hitting him all over like bullets, pricking his skin sharply. His skin was numb and he could hardly move, but he carried on, he HAD to find her.

And ahead of him through the rain, he saw a figure. Well it looked like it, it was a bundle of something. He squinted his eyes to see the thing ahead of him. The rain was so heavy now, he could barely see, but he walked on.

a bundle of leaves? of twigs? of...Kate

He ran to her terrified. She was breathing, but was out cold. Her skin was ghostly pale, and he could see her pulse beating slowly in her neck. He gasped and took her into his arms holding her close. He did his best to warm her up and shake her awake but she didn't stir. He picked her up to head back to the camp they had set up. At least there would be SOME shelter there. It had stopped raining suddenly, and already, the sun could be seen, shining through the clouds.

Talk about ironic he thought as her carried Kate, looking at her fondly, so glad she was ok.
