'Remember everything happens for a reason'

"Every step that you take
Could be your biggest mistake
It could bend or it could break
But that's the risk that you take
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there in you life.

That you don't want me there by your side"

A Day had passed and nothing really special had happened. They didn't come for them yet, so they were eating fish biscuits and were mostly chatting about Jack and Juliet. Sawyer didn't even know why but he took the whole situation far not serious enough and neither did Kate, though she still got that bad feeling inside of her.

Sawyer sat in a corner near the bars watching Kate nibbling quietly on her biscuit. He sighed scanning the floor in front of him.

"Can I ask ya somethin', Freckles?" He asked his eyes never leaving the ground. Kate looked up and put the fish biscuit to the side, giving him a barely hearable "Mhmm."

"Why did ya come back, when ya could've a happy life with Jack?" That question had burned under his nails for quite some time now and finally he'd the chance to ask her. They hadn't had that much time the last days. There was Juliet and he didn't want her to think there was something going on between them. So it was hard hanging around with her like they used to all those years ago. Besides he had too much to do at work. To bring them all in to the community of the Dharma Initiative was tough and he'd never have made it without his Juliet. She did the most of it, even though she was not happy about them being back. About Kate being back. How she felt about Jack being back wasn't even on his mind, but he knew she'd been truly hurt when Jack refused to help her with little Ben. So Sawyer did everything, risk their lives just to make his Juliet happy. Wasn't that just true love?

"I felt kind of guilty and responsible of you guys. I thought if we just left you here we'd owe you now, to keep you save. We shouldn't have left at all. And Jack and I, we weren't happy. Okay, at the beginning we were. We were engaged even. But playing happy family didn't last long, until he started drinking and…. . He didn't trust me in the end. So we broke up and it got worse." Kate explained and Sawyer looked at her, frowning slightly.

"You still love'm?" Kate looked him in the eyes through the bars of her cage. He could tell she was thinking, though she nodded after a while. "Sure, of course." She paused, biting her bottom lip. "At least I think I do." Sawyer barely heard her; she was more mumbling it to herself. The both sat there in their cages in silence again. Sawyer was playing with a little stone and Kate just let the sun burn down on her face. Breathing in deeply as if it was the last breath she'd make, closing her eyes slightly.

"Is it different now?"

"What do you mean?" she was confused watching him again, or better watching his hand fiddling with the stone. "Is it different now, you're back on the island?" She still didn't get it and gave him an irritated look.

"Y'know he told me he wants ya back. Now he'd lost ya." Sawyer told her not daring to look back at her. Kate was totally baffled, putting herself up at the bars of her cage. "When…when did he tell you that?"

"Back in the 70's. Short before I almost punched the soul outta him." Sawyer smirked amused; he didn't know why he was still upset with Jack. "Sawyer." Kate rolled her eyes, obviously not in the mood for his sarcastic sometimes cynical comments. "Anyways, I found out what yer problem is. You and the Doc. always want what you can't have." It sound almost a little aggressive to Kate, she was totally speechless. And she kinda knew he was right.

Suddenly they heard footsteps. And not long enough after that, Tom, Danny and a few other people they didn't know unlocked there cages and handcuffed them again. "You're coming with us. It's time to make yourself a little useful." Danny hissed pushing Sawyer out of his prison roughly. Both of them (Kate and Sawyer) gave them evil glances.

They were pushing them further and they both knew were they were going. Suddenly somebody called Danny. And Colleen his wife stepped over to her husband. It felt like a déjà vu as Sawyer was watching them again, a slight grin on his face like 3 years ago. But this time he was thinking about the beautiful blonde he'd shared 3 years of pure love with. And again they trapped him watching them and again Danny got angry. "What're you lookin' at?" The words echoed in his head.

Danny led them to the place a few peoples chopped stones loose and stuff like that …

So they were forced to do the same again, after Danny gave them their instructions, their lunch box and made himself absolutely clear about the 'if-you're-pissing-me-off-in-any-kinda-way-you-gotta-get-shocked-thing.'

They had worked for a few hours now, and the heat was unbearable. The sweat was running down Sawyers forehead and his arms felt tired and weak. Their was no way he'd stand this any longer, without anything left to drink. And he could swear Kate felt the same as he looked over to her, chopping stones in her, now dirty from the dust, summer dress. He wiped his forehead and looked around. And there he was once left speechless as he saw that beautiful blonde he'd dreamed of the last days right in front of his nose. Chatting with some guy. Well he was more flirting with her, but Sawyer didn't care he'd only eyes for her. "Juliet" he whispered to himself watching her laugh and putting back a few strands that had fallen out of her straight made ponytail. And then suddenly, when the guy was gone her gaze turned over to him. Juliet titled her head slightly and he totally forgot catching the water bottle she threw over to him. So it fell to the ground. She chuckled lightly raising an eyebrow at him. "Oh shit." He thought to himself, kneeling down to grab it, never leaving her eyes while he did it.

He took a few gulps and wiped his forehead, disappointed because Juliet wasn't paying anymore attention and somebody screamed from behind him. "Hey! Go back to work."

So he did, still watching Juliet now standing there all alone watching the other people. Sawyer turned around getting in sight of Kate. She was rubbing her hurting wrists, then wiping the sweat from her forehead. Sawyer remembered he'd found her more then cute that day and he almost put a step closer, as he turned around once again and walked straight over to Juliet. An idea spread on his mind and even if he didn't like the idea it was the only way he'd get this all under control. Juliet hadn't even the time to react, to pull out her gun out of her pants as Sawyer easily pulled her in for a kiss. And how he kissed her. As if it was the last kiss he'd get. He'd have loved to deepen this, to just kiss her and hold her close all the long. But he seriously had no time for that if his plan should work out the way he thought it could. To his surprise she didn't pull back or was pushing him away in any kind of way, as he then pulled her gun out of her pants, turned her around, holding her close and held it to her head. Of course he wasn't gonna hurt her. The others ran over to him pointing guns at him, building a close circle around him. Kate watched the scenario shocked, as someone grabbed her wrists, handcuffing her roughly. "What are you doing." She mouthed at Sawyer, fighting with Danny that held her from running. Sawyer gave her a confident glance and nodded to her as if to say 'Trust me!'

"Come any closer and she'll die." Sawyer shouted angrily, holding the gun seriously pressed against Juliet's head. He heard, felt her breathing heavily. Felt how her chest rose and fell over and over again and she would have thrown him right over her shoulder if he wouldn't have hold her that tight, so she could barely move. "Don't you do that, James. Don't…" Juliet breathed quietly, trying to remain calm, as she always did. "I'm sorry, turned out like that, Blondie. Ain't gonna hurt you, though." He whispered into her ear making her heart beating faster. "Let her go, you son of a bitch." A man hissed and his eyes were sparkling dangerously, just like everyone else's. …
