Summary : Holidays of December 2008, short moment in Sawyer and Kate's life.

Thanks su for checking my english, love you girl !

yeah i don't follow an order of the storyline, it's mostly the idea I have had in my mind at this time but I mention timeline all time so you'll not be lost ;)

The door opened and the couple went inside. They were covered with snow everywhere but the most surprising thing was what they were wearing...

Sawyer was wearing a Santa hat of course, but in particular, with big ears of the famous Disney character names "Stitch" and a scarf with an head of "Donald Duck". Kate wasn't much better. She was wearing Mickey's earmuffs and scarf with "Chip and Dale" on it.

He closed the door with his feet and put the bags and package on the floor. He shook his head and the bells of his Santa hat began to ring under the amused gaze of his girlfriend.

He lifted up his head then took off his coat and Santa hat and put them on the sofa. Kate did the same then placed a GIANT Minnie on it.

"You know we don't keep it here Freckles?"

"Yeah I know it's for your daughter, but for now this can stay here for a bit."

He nodded then started to unpack some gifts they bought and brought them to the table. He told her he'll call his daughter to wish her a "Merry Christmas" and make hot chocolate for them.

"Be careful with our microwave," Kate said giving him a 'bad glance".

"Oh Freckles, it happened only once, you can trust me now right?"

Kate looked at him with a smile then kissed him tenderly and he kissed her back for a while. Sawyer left her so she could unpack everything they bought for the family. Kate took a box and opened it. She lifted up a decorative snowball. She smiled and set it on the table next to the phone. She couldn't stop looking at it, and seeing the Disney characters inside, she thought of Sawyer's surprise, the one he gave her a week ago.

She was astonished when he brought her tickets for Disneyland. They spent a wonderful week in a nice hotel. They had gone back in time. They had fun like kids, but Sawyer felt guilty because he didn't bring Clementine with them, but this time, he wanted only the two of them, like he "promised" her 4 years ago on the island. So to be "forgiven" by his little girl, he bought her a lot of presents. She was really a daddy's girl, Kate thought looking at the giant plush on the sofa. A lot of packages were for her, with a princess costume, fantasy hat, jewelry and everything else a little girl would love to have. He also bought some gifts to Aaron. They weren't poor; they got a lot of money from "Oceanic Airline Company".

Kate heard Sawyer speaking to Clementine about the park and she imagined the day they could return with her. She leaned down to get her bag and opened it. She took a pocket camera where inside there were hundreds of pictures they took. They took them before leaving the park and they watched it on the plane. Kate sat on the sofa and watched it once again. She laughed seeing the pictures they took with the Disney characters and others when they were only walking, visiting. It was so beautiful there. Her eyes stopped on a picture someone took of them in front of the illuminated castle. They were looking in each other's eyes. It was a French couple who took it for them. Kate smiled and decided to put the picture in a frame. She stood up and went in to her office but she didn't find one. The house was full of pictures of their little family, only Ben and Hurley were missing, but they should come to visit them in the spring. She sighed. She really wanted to put this picture in a frame. Her eyes caught a frame in her office. She looked at it a while. She remembered this day perfectly. Aaron wanted to go at the park and Jack had had a weekend off. They went as a family and they spent a beautiful afternoon together. Aaron learned to ride a bike for the first time. Jack took a lot of pictures of her and Aaron and then she took one of the two men of her life. Jack and her never took pictures together. They should have made some for the wedding reception, but the wedding was cancelled. Kate never had the courage to take down the picture. Her "son" always said his uncle could come back to play with him at the park. Jack broke her heart but she didn't want to break Aaron's, so she smiled and told him he worked a lot for now. A lot of things happened next - Aaron wasn't her baby anymore and Jack was gone forever. Maybe one day she'll have her own family...

A tear fell on her cheek. It was almost a year since her ex-fiance died, and in one year, a lot of things changed. She always thought he did it to let have a second chance, a new life. Maybe Jack knew she and Sawyer could be back together? After all, he never really left her heart and it was even one of those reasons she broke up with Jack, even if they really loved each other.

"Thanks," she murmured with a smile.

Kate turned over the frame and took out the picture. She looked at him a little bit before opening a drawer and putting it inside. Then she took the picture of her and Sawyer and put it inside the frame. She looked at him before setting it on the office table.

"What are you doing, Freckles?"

She turned to meet the eyes of her boyfriend. He had his mug in his hands, and she grabbed hers, and smiled to him and then showed him the frame.

"Oh you chose this one… you're right, it's my best profile!"

She pushed him on the shoulder then put her head against his chest and he held her tighter.

"Thanks for this week, Sawyer," she said, meeting his glance.

He smiled to her then kissed her forehead. They stayed like that a bit, then separated to sit on the sofa and Sawyer told her about his conversation with Clementine.

"Cassidy isn't happy I brought you to Disneyland."

"Why?"

"Well Clem was a bit capricious. She didn't even want her Christmas cookies...Do you think I bought enough gifts to make her forgive me?"

"She has enough. I think the best thing to do is to bring her next weekend."

Sawyer looked at her bemused.

"Do not try to convince my girl to go there, Freckles. You're worse than a kid."

She ignored him and took a sip of her chocolate.

"We'll go back, I promise."

Kate glanced at Sawyer then sat her mug on the table and she kissed him.

"Wow! If I knew a trip to Disneyland could get you so excited, I would have brought you there the same week we returned here!"

"Shut up and kiss me."

He smiled then kissed her back. They fell on the sofa. He broke the kiss to look at her while she was stroking his hair.

"Merry Christmas, Kate."

"Merry Christmas, James."

The new year was coming in a few days and tonight on this snowy day, Kate made the most important choice in her life, to love him and spend all day together as if it was their last. The past will never leave her. It would stay in her heart forever, but she has a bright future, and she found it.

Warning, next OS will be related to Suliet storyline, yeah I'll add some Jate and/or Suliet in differents OS, it's necessary for the storyline but it's a SKATE storyline don't worry ;)
