AN:

And here it is, folks, the 30th installment of Lost. Although it's really only the 29th, since one of the chapters was an Author's Note...

Douglas's POV:

I stared at the door. Sam had just left me, not caring at all. All she wanted was to find Wolverine.

I sat back down on the bed, waiting for her to return. Finally the door opened. "Sam!" I said standing up.

"No, it's me." Rogue said. "Wait, where's Sam? She was here with you!"

"She decided to go use Cerebro to find Wolverine." I said dully.

"WHAT?!" Rogue cried. "She'll kill herself! She can't handle that much information!"

My heart racing, I asked her, "Where's Cerebro?"

"Follow me." Rogue responded. We ran through the halls, and I slammed into Storm.

"Whoa! Sorry, Storm." I apologized.

"Have you seen Sam?" Rogue asked.

"She asked Kurt for help. She needed him to teleport her somewhere. They haven't come back yet." Storm explained.

BAMF! Kurt appeared next to his wife. "Hello." He said.

"Is Sam okay?" I asked immediately.

"What, yeah, she's fine." Kurt said. "And so is Logan. They're having a little talk."

Rogue laughed. "I feel sorry for Logan."

So Logan and Sam were somewhere unknown, together. It drove me crazy!

We waited for almost twenty minutes before Kurt said, "I'd better go get them. It's dark out."

BAMF!
Rogue smiled. "Why does he always make that Bamf noise when he teleports?"

Storm just shook her head.

BAMF! Kurt, Logan, and Sam were standing a few feet away from us, laughing. Jealousy swelled within me. They had only talked for twenty minutes and they were already laughing? Wolverine wasn't supposed to come back. Sam was supposed to ditch him!

Sam and I were supposed to end up together, not her and some idiot who we just met.

Right. They had known each other for ten years, but I had known her more recently. He abandoned her for the last three, and that counted for something… right?

I sighed.

"You okay, Douglas?" Sam turned to me.

No. I wanted to say. Not as long as he's here. But I couldn't say that. So I replied, "Yeah, I'm fine."

Sam smiled. "Good."

We all talked for a while, then I headed off to bed. Bobby, Warren, and Spiro were already asleep. I crawled onto the top bunk, and lay there for a while. Soon I drifted off to sleep.

AN:

In response to a PM from Risika a while ago, I have started a little bit of romance between Douglas and Rogue. Obviously Bobby needs to break up with her first, but that'll happen soon. Maybe. Sam has some things she needs to tell Logan about, first...

Review, please!
