Monday after the dance and things are a little different now. There are a few more couples around the school now


It was Monday morning and Shannon was giving Kate a ride to school since Claire had decided that since the dance she and Charlie would be travelling to school together. The two girls were listening to the radio not talking much.

"So I think you need to tell me something Kate" Shannon joked trying to get as much info as she could about her and Sawyer.

Kate just laughed at Shannon's comment "Well I think you kinda saw 'something' the other night"

Both girls were laughing now, after 10 minutes they had reached the school and saw Charlie and Claire getting out his car and they parked near his.

"Hey" Claire welcomed her two friends as they got out the car.

"Hey" Both girls replied at the same time both hugging Claire. Charlie was feeling a bit uncomfortable as the girls were hugging and starting to gossip about what had happened after the dance and over the weekend.

While they were walking into school and Sawyer had caught up with them, he hadn't spoken to Kate all weekend and he really wanted to talk to her, Charlie had IMed him telling him about spending all his weekend with Claire and Sawyer hated to admit it but he felt a bit jealous. Charlie had moved next to Sawyer and greeted him

"Hey mate"

Sawyer wasn't in the mood for him "Yeah whatever Jimminy Cricket" ignoring his welcoming comment

"What's your bloody problem mate?" Charlie asked wondering why Sawyer had such an attitude he thought they were friends now since he and Claire and Sawyer and Kate were dating he believed that just automatically made him and Sawyer friends.

Sawyer couldn't keep it in any longer and took his anger out on Charlie "You you're my problem 'mate,' we ain't friends and we never been friends so just lay off"

The girls stopped talking now to notice Charlie and Sawyer's little problem. The 4 of them were staring at Sawyer who had been angry for no apparent reason Charlie was only being nice to him.

"Forget it" Sawyer muttered under his breath and stormed off, both Shannon and Claire looked at Kate. She just watched him walked off wondering what had gotten into him; she then looked back at her friends and shrugged her shoulders with a bewildered look on her face.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lunch came round and the gang except Sawyer were all sitting round their usual table. None of them had seen or spoken to him all day and no one knew what was going on with him, they all thought Kate would have know but she was in the dark just like the rest of them.

Kate was eating her sandwich when she noticed Jack and Ana-Lucia walking in holding hands. They seemed like a couple and already her friends had noticed her staring at them, everyone round the table was watching Jack and Ana staying quiet.

"Guess they sorted their problems out" Boone opened the conversation

"Yeah well their own problems are each other" Shannon added

"And the fact that they make you and Boone seem Mary-Kate and Ashley" Claire joked knowing that Boone and Shannon couldn't stand the sight of each other and only hung around together because they shared the same friends. Claire's comment had brought out a few laughs from some sitting at the table.

Kate only gave a small smile and then her eyes locked on Sawyer walking in the cafeteria. He locked eyes with her for a moment but then walked straight back out breaking eye contact, she didn't know how to take this was he avoiding her or did he want her to go outside after him. She didn't know what to do everything had been perfect on Friday but it had just seemed to be spiralling downward since.

Kate then abruptly stood up and headed outside after Sawyer she needed to see what was up with him. She was walking round the school looking for him, and then she noticed him leaning against the back of a tree down the field. She stared at him for a moment fear stopping her walking over to him; she had no idea how he was going to react around her. She finally snapped out of her trance and made her way over to him, he could see her walking over to him and inside he was glad that she was coming over to him because they could finally talk after not saying a word to each other for 2 days.

"Hey" Kate said shyly

"Hey yourself" He replied back not knowing where this conversation was heading

"What's up with you" She moved closer to him placing a hand on his arm.

He noticed her gesture it was only a small one but to him it was a big thing and he moved his arm away from her "It's nothing"

"Yeah it really seems like nothing" Kate was getting angry with him now he wasn't opening up to her just leaving her there not knowing what was going through his mind.

"Yeah well freckles…" He didn't know what to say exactly "It don't matter" he carried on with his simple reply.

"Yes Sawyer, Yes it does matter" Kate shouted at him

"I said it don't and it don't" Sawyer yelled back

Kate's face dropped at Sawyer's reaction. What had happened between them both for them to get to this, Kate was fed up with Sawyer now and she began to walk away from him now but he grabbed her wrist to stop her from getting any further

"Kate…" He began; he was using her name for once something must have been up for him to be doing this. Kate turned her face round to look at him "I'm sorry" Kate's face softened at his apology it sounded as if he meant it as it was a genuine apology. He let go of her wrist and she stood there staring at him for a moment.

She didn't know what to do, where they stood now, after that moment they just shared it wasn't the Sawyer she had got to know for the past few days. Their eyes locked for a brief moment but then she took a cautious step forward to him and her lips met his. She didn't know whether this was the right thing to do or not but her mind was telling her it was the right thing to do. He kissed her back after longing to have kissed her again remembering what their first kiss was like, the taste of her lips, the way they felt on his. After they broke from the kiss they both locked eyes again before he spoke

"So we ok freckles?"

Kate smiled and nodded "Yeah" he smiled back at her his dimples showing, showing it was a true smile coming from him. They then made their way back to the cafeteria holding hands and she rested her head on his shoulder.
