Kate was sitting on the sofa channel hopping as the door to the bathroom was opened. She turned her head to see Sawyer coming out the bathroom with a towel wrapped loosely around his abdomen and another in his hand drying his hair.

"That's Freshened me right up freckles, shame you couldn't join me" Sawyer grinned looking in her direction.

She just smiled back, "Look I've gotta go out for a bit you won't mind will you?" She asked knowing she had to get some food because her fridge was almost empty and while she was out she would get him some clean clothes since the ones he had were from the island and most looked as if they were years old.

"Nah, Freckles just make myself at home with my whiskey and tv" he replied sitting himself down by her and taking the control out of her hands.

She just laughed at the way he was settling into her home, as if it was something natural for the both of them to be there together.

She made her way to the door on the way collecting her bag, purse and keys. She turned facing Sawyer for a moment "I'll see you in about an hour ok?"

Sawyer nodded "Sure think freckles"

With that she left and made her way to the car. Now that she was gone he turned his attention back to the tv, flicking through the various channels noticing that not a lot was on in the morning.

Half an hour later and the bottle emptier than before he was watching a talk show where this woman's ex had got her pregnant and how he was demanding a paternity test. 'What a damn soap opera" he thought. They haven't had problems until their plane crashes and lands on some damn island.

Kate was at her local shopping mall after picking up food that would last her she went looking for clothes for Sawyer, all she knew from what to pick is what she had seen him wearing on the island. She didn't really know what size he was either but she was sure she could figure that out.


He wasn't really paying much attention to the chat show, bored he decided he would take a little tour of the place where Kate was living. He didn't know what she would think of him looking through her place without her there but he didn't care at that moment in time he was bored and wanted something to do.

He got up and started pacing round first going to the kitchen seeing his bag empty on the counter he looked at the washing machine buzzing along and realised she must have washed his clothes for him. Looking in her fridge there was hardly anything in there so that meant he couldn't have a lot to eat if he had wanted.

He had gone through most the house now and only 2 more rooms were left her bedroom and to him it seemed another spare room. He decided he would leave the more interesting until last her room. But was it right to go into her private space? He'd leave that thinking until he got to it. He went into the spare room but was amazed to find that the room was in fact someone's room, to be more precise it was a little boys room going from the small bed and the toys on there followed by the big book case on the far right wall.

"What the hell..." Sawyer muttered under his breath not being able to adjust to the picture he was seeing, did that mean Kate had a kid? He then began thinking how, when she wasn't with anyone from the way she was acting and flirting with him.

He was then lost for thoughts when it finally dawned on him, the one of a few conversations he shared with Kate and didn't want to acknowledge: maybe she could have been pregnant on the island, and seeing this room was making him believe that she could have been, it was the only reasonable answer. If that was true that would mean...

What caught his eye was a picture frame on the night stand, he made his way over and picked the frame up looking at it in astonishment: Kate was glowing with happiness he hadn't seen since they were on the island before everything got complicated, but what really got to him was the small blonde haired green eyed boy who was the spitting image of Sawyer. How could she keep this a secret from him, when he did realise he hadn't been back long but she could have at least let him know before she went out and why wasn't he there? Didn't she want him to see his own son?

Too busy thinking about everything he didn't hear the door open and Kate call his name. Kate wondered where he might have got to; she then put the stuff out the car down in the kitchen and then looked round for Sawyer until she saw the door open to where she was hoping he wouldn't be. 'Not like this' she thought, she didn't want him knowing this way.

She got to his room and saw him standing there amazed, his back was turned but she could tell he didn't know what to think or do.

"Sawyer" She spoke in a low calm voice not knowing how to address the situation.

He just ignored her, she then slowly took a few steps towards him. Not knowing how he was feeling or how he was dealing with the situation. She knew he was clever enough to put two and two together and then noticing the frame was gone off the night stand she then defiantly knew that he knew. It was obvious if he was looking at the picture every time she looked at her own son she saw Sawyer even more as the days passed.

She reached for him arm and tried again "Sawyer?"

He harshly turned round facing her, their faces a hair apart.

His voice was now raised "How could you not tell me Kate?"

Kate wiped her face with her hands not knowing how to address the situation then thinking he didn't even give her time to tell him it was typical Sawyer putting the blame on someone else, not being able to sit tight but of course he had to wander round and find the room.

"You've only been here a few hours and what am I meant to say, hey welcome back and oh by the way you now also have a son. Yeah real conversation opener that is after 3 years."

He couldn't believe she was trying to put this on him. "Well it would have been nice to have known, and of course you would have known I'd find this room come on Kate you know me well enough to know I ain't gonna be Mr. Sit around and wait for you to get back, you knew damn well enough I'd go looking round."

And there they were back to their old selves; fighting again they could never go long without arguing it just wasn't in their nature to.

"Well come on then, if you wanna play caring father now what you wanna know? His name? How old he is? How I had to go through raising him on my own? Or what about how when I went into labour with him all I wanted was you there by my side. Come on name it."

He calmed hearing her words, she wanted him there: it showed she must still care for him. That's all he needed reassurance for before he took her lips into a passionate kiss.

She didn't know what was happening but all of a sudden before she knew it he lifted her up taking her to her own room. They didn't stayed clothed for much longer when they entered her room before crashing down on the bed.

How he missed her, missed being able to kiss her lips to feel her underneath him. It was something every day he wished he would be able to do again. His heart was telling him to take his time with her but his body was unwilling for that to happen, even though he didn't know it she was having the same problems wanting to take it slow.

He broke the kiss looking into her eyes "I missed you."

"I missed you aswell..." She wanted to say something else but it was stopped by his lips crashing back down on hers.
