Disclaimer: I don't own Lost, I just watch it religiously.

Author's Note: I really never thought I'd write a fic like this. But who am I kidding? I'm such a shipper. Part of my modified 100 fic challenge. Each part is one part of the challenge, and exactly 100 words, not including anything above the line--and according to my Word Count (which is only as accurate as it wants to be).
