Thanks to the people who reviewed on the first chapter. I'm hoping my old Them readers will pick up on the fact that I've changed the story. Here is the first actual chapter.

Chapter 1

Nell'inizio

"Live for today because yesterdays are over and tomorrows may never come."

"Well ain't this just dandy." The southern voice broke the silence. "I mean…We talk about things getting' borin' and then we end up here…Musta been like a miracle or something'." Sawyer looked at the other two people in the room with a smirk. "Any escape plans yet, Doc?"

Jack looked up from a spot on the floor with a sigh. "No. But if I think of one, I'll be sure to leave you out of it." he replied. Running his hand over his short brown hair, he looked around the room. Unlike Kate, the three of them were lucky enough to at least get some light in there room. But also unlike Kate, they were unlucky enough to have to be stuck with Sawyer. Jack was sure, wherever she was, that she wouldn't have cared which one of them she was stuck with as long as she wasn't alone though.

"Well thanks…And if I think of any, I'll be sure to leave you out to." Sawyer replied, with a nod. He shoved his hands in his pockets and closed his eyes, trying to think of a plan, just so he could have one thought of before Jack did.

"Don't fight you two, okay?" A girl in her mid -twenties told them. She shifted uncomfortably in the corner she was sitting in and crossed her arms. Pale green eyes stared at them, a strand of blond hair hanging down in front of one of her eyes. "We should be trying to get out of here."

"Oh yeah, Sunshine? Well I haven't heard any of your plans yet…Till ya get one, we'll do as we please." Sawyer replied, rolling his eyes. "Who're you to tell us what to do anyways? You ain't known us more than a hour…"

The girl sighed slightly and shook her head, looking down. "Well excuse me for trying to help." she replied quietly.

"Leave her alone, Sawyer." Jack said. "It's bad enough you have to annoy me. Don't annoy…" his voice trailed off as he searched his mind for her name. Had she told them her name? He didn't think she had.

"Jessie." The girl filled in for him, tucking a strand of her shoulder length hair behind her ear. "I'm Jessie."

"Don't annoy Jessie too." Jack said, frowning at Sawyer. He smiled a bit and turned to Jessie. "I'm Jack, by the way. And that's Sawyer…It's best to just ignore him."

"Oh yeah, Jack-O?" Sawyer asked. "Ignore me when I think of an escape plan before you do then." He leaned his head back against the wall, staring up at the ceiling.

Jack sighed and ignored him, though found it hard to take his own advise. This guy was just too much of a pro at being annoying. "Think Kate is okay?" he asked after a few moments, glancing over at him.

"Who? Freckles?" Sawyer replied. "Yeah, she's okay…She probably kicked their butts and got outa here by now…That's why they ain't come to get us yet…She killed 'em all off."

Jack sighed and shook his head slightly. "Is it impossible for you to be serious just this once, Sawyer?" he asked him.

Sawyer smirked. "You bet it is." he replied. He put his hands behind his head and looked at Jessie. "So how'd you come to Mystery Frickin' Island?" he asked her.

Jessie raised her eyebrows at him. "I crashed on the same plane you did." she replied. "So the same way you got here."

"Oh." Sawyer replied. "Then hows come I don't 'member seein' ya around before?" he asked. "Ain't one of the Others, are ya?"

"No, I'm not one of the Others. And because I mostly stayed in my tent." Jessie said, frowning. She wasn't one of the Others.

"Mostly stayed in your tent, huh?" Sawyer asked. "Well I guess that explains it then. You're one a those no fun, stay inside people."

Jessie shrugged. "So what if I am? I'm not hurting you, now am I?"

Sawyer smirked. "Hurts that a pretty lil thing like you stays inside where I can't see ya." he replied.

"Leave her alone, Sawyer." Jack warned. He opened his mouth to make a smart comment, but then shut it again. There was no point in sinking as low as he was.

Sawyer shot him a glare then shut his eyes. "It don't matter. I already got myself a girl."

"Sure, you do." Jack muttered, looking away, a bit jealous. He knew who he meant. He meant that he had Kate. Though neither of them really had Kate.

"What? Ya think she likes you, Doc?" Sawyer asked with a chuckle. "Well when she finally decides she likes one of us, you're gonna be kinda disappointed when that someone she likes is me."

Jack shook his head a bit. "And what makes you think it'll be you?" he asked, raising a brow at him. "How do you know she's even going to pick anyone us, hmm?"

"How do you know she's not?" Sawyer replied.

"Guys!" Jessie cut in, frowning at them. "Just stop it okay. I hope she decides she doesn't like either of you if you keep fighting like this. You're giving me a headache." She ran her hand through her hair, just sort of staring at them like they were the most pathetic people she'd ever seen in her entire life.

Jack looked over at her, staring at her for a moment. He sighed, realizing she was right. What made him think he even came close to deserving her when he fought over her like this? Though what made Sawyer deserve her if he didn't deserve her? Sawyer was sure worse than he was.

All three of them turned to look at the door as it opened and a man stepped in. It was the same one that had taken Kate to a different room, but they didn't know that. "Get up." the man told them simply.

Sawyer smirked. "And what's gonna happen if I don't?" he replied, crossing his arms. He rolled his eyes as the other two got up. What wimps.

"If you don't?" The man asked. He leaned against the wall and scratched his chin, thinking for a few moments. "And if you don't…Hmm…Well we do have that little friend of yours here in another room…Kate her name is…I'm sure we could do something to her to make you get up."

Sawyer frowned. Great. With a defeated sigh, his stood and looked at him. "Happy now, shorty?" he asked him.

The man shrugged. "Depends…You keep making me give you threats to get you to do things and happy will be one thing I'm not." he answered.

"Well then I'm thinkin' happy is one thing ya won't be." Sawyer replied with a grin.

"Well then neither will you." The man replied. He ran his hand over his short black hair and turned. "Follow me." he said. Shoving his hands in his pockets, he began down the long gray hallway, whistling as he walked. He wouldn't mention that they still wouldn't be happy even if he was happy. He'd let them figure that one out themselves.
