Everything Happens For A Reason
Ever since that first time Shannon talked to Sayid she knew she wanted him. But he was different from all the other guys she wanted. For one, he certainly wasn't what she would have considered her type.
Most guys shannon wanted she wanted just for a fling and for all the wrong reasons; with Sayid, she wanted something real, something that would last forever. And she wanted him for all the right reasons for a change. Boone despised this. But Shannon didn't care; she just wanted Sayid.
Shannon had cheated on guys before; she never felt guilty. With Sayid, the thought of being unfaithful was non-existant, it wasn't even possible. She loved him. For the first time in her life, she found someone she truely loved. Nothing that used to matter in her life off the island would ever matter that much again. She had Sayid and that was all that mattered.
After the crash, Shannon wanted nothing to do with anyone or anything. The only reason she interacted with anyone was because she had to, or to anger Boone. Other than that she just wanted to be left alone; and thats what happened with the exception of Boone. Until one day after she went off to find a signal for the transiever, Sayid came over to her where she was tanning. She couldn't help but notice how gorgeous he was, and when he asked her to help him translate the French Chick's maps no wasn't even an answer. She went and helped him everyday, and began to grow to be more than just friends.
The closer they got the angrier Boone got. But neither of them cared; they had each other and nothing else mattered. Even Nadia wasn't important in Sayid's life, and was basically forgotten.
Even though they were stuck on an unknown island, these were the happiest days of either one of their lives. Shannon moved in with Sayid. Every night they fell asleep, Shannon in Sayid's arms; every morning they woke up the same way, Sayid still had Shannon in his arms. Niether one could be happier. Some of the people on the island believe in Fate, in Destiny. Though neither one used to be believers they now both believe that "Everything happens for a Reason." They were both on Flight 815 so that they could meet each other.
