The LOST Writers' Island

Thank you so so much! (omg I sounded like I just won miss america or something)

Chapter 7

The week began to pass. Sawyer went with Kate in his own personal new chauffered car and packed everything she owned up. FBI and agents alike had scattered throughout the house and it was an emotional time for Kate. Cindys family had come the day before and collected her things so the house was pretty bare by then.

But Sawyer assured her that her life was going to get so much better and Kate put her trust in him. That night when she moved into his place, they made love all the way until morning and they slept the entire next day and made love as well. Sawyer deserved a day off after all he'd done and he spent it with the new love of his life.

She moved in Tuesday, they spent the day on Wednesday and Thursday Kate signed her contract with Sunset Cosmetics to be the new spokesmodel for Sunrise Perfume. Friday, she was at her first photoshoot. Nervous as could be because she'd never modeled before. But Sawyer was right by her side and that made it all the more comfortable and safe.

Another week passed by and Sawyer picked up a smaller account so he could spend more time with Kate. Kate had turned into a busy bee herself with Sunset Cosmetics. They were so thrilled with their new up and coming model that she was hired for other things as well. At night, they made love for hours. Exploring each others bodies. Sawyer more than loved Kate. She was his everything. He took her out on shopping sprees and fed her the finest food.

Thursday night, Sawyer took Kate to have dinner with Desmond and his girlfriend. Friday would be the big reveal of Suns new fragrance in Times Square. So needless to say, Kate was very excited.

Sawyer sat Kate down on the terrace of the restuarant and sat beside her, his arm protectively around her. He nibbled on her ear a bit and told her what he was gonna do to her when they got home and she was more than blush red when Desmond came to them with an attractive blonde in his arms.

Sawyer cleared his throat and stood up, shaking his friends hand. Desmond cast a charming smile to Kate, "This is Claire. Claire, this is Kate."

Kate shook Claires hand, "Nice to meet you."

''You too," Claire said with a warm and friendly smile. Kate liked her instantly. The couple took their seats and chatted up the night. Kate learned that Desmond proposed to Claire the weekend before and the ring was an eye opener indeed. She'd also learned that they'd been dating for almost two years but they didnt get married sooner because they were both career driven. Claire worked in the governors office and another interesting thing was...

"Its not all bad working for my dad," Claire continued. "Being the governors daughter has its very high points."

"Can you believe that Kylie Minogue here is sisters to Jack Shephard?" Sawyer said to Kate and then swore at Desmond, 'Sleepin with the enemy."

Desmond grinned, "What can I say? I love her." He looked at Claire and smiled.

Claire laughed and looked at Sawyer, "Jacks not all that bad. He can be a prig at times-"

Sawyer snickered at this. Claire continued.

"But he is a really good brother. Even if he doesnt get along with dad."

Kate wanted to know, "What happened between them?" Sawyer was caressing Kates neck as she spoke.

Claire answered with a sigh, 'Well, dad was one of New Yorks top brain surgeons and wanted Jack to follow in his footsteps. Jack had his own plans of course."

Kate said, "Oh," and Sawyer took her hand and passed his lips over her fingers as he spoke, "Yeah well Jackass decided he wanted a hand in our career. I'll hand it to him, he's good. But he aint as good as me."

Desmond chuckled, "Aye, I'll attest to that brotha." He lifted his glass.

Kate laughed, ''Out of all the people I could meet as a waitress, I go and meet you." She said to Sawyer.

He laughed, his dimples deepening when he said, "Yeah but remember, the tips were good right?" He smiled at her and kissed her cheek.

"So Kate, where are you from?" Claire asked with interest.

Kate stiffened a little, Sawyer noticed. "Iowa," she answered.

Claire noticed too, "Left behind some bad memories there huh?"

Kate nodded and gave her new friend a smile, 'Yeah. I sure did."

Sawyer looked at Kate and wanted to know what happened to her. She didnt talk about her past much. He wanted to know everything about her, everything he could possibly know. Because he loved her more than life itself.

-------

That night when they got home, they collapsed onto the bed and had sex frantically. He'd wanted her all day and fulfilled everything he told her he was gonna do.

"Son of a bitch baby, you feel so fuckin good," he moaned in her ear as their bodies slammed into each other with fierceness. His hand went down and stroked her clit as he fucked her on the bed. It shook from their motions and started a creaking noise as well. They'd used that bed real good since she moved in.

"Say my name," he demanded through clenched teeth. "I wanna hear it baby."

"James!" She cried out. Loving the name that he was born with.

"Louder!"

"James!"

He pushed into her body, his dick coated with her cum. "Again goddammit!"

"JAMES!!"

And he roared as he emptied himself into her body. Kate shouted as well and came with him.

They fell asleep in a sticky tangle of arms and legs and with Sawyers declaration that he loved her.

------

Kate got up with a smile. They had been so exhausted, they didnt even wake up to make love again. Well, she thought as she bit down on her lip, the sun was just rising, casting a golden hue in the room as he moved over her body and made love to her again.

She sighe softly, it was perfection. More than so. She looked over to his side of the bed. He was gone like he'd said he'd be. There was a note and a red rose ontop of it.

Freckles,
I made you breakfast. Pop it in the micro and heat it up.
Coffees made too. Relax. Todays a big day. I'll be back tonight to pick you up.
 Maybe I'll visit before...
Love you,
Sawyer

She held the note close to her heart, sighed and fell back against the fluffy pillows. Kate had eaten, showered, dressed and now she was just brushing out her hair when she heard the door slam shut. A giddyness flooded through her body. It was Sawyer. She turned and ran out into the living room with a blush but stopped dead.

It wasnt Sawyer. It was an incredibly beautiful, tall blonde. An angry one at that. She placed her hands on her hips and shouted, "Who the hell are you?!''

"I...Im," Kate didnt know what to say. By god, Sawyer already had a girlfriend?? What had she been thinking, she knew this wasnt true. Shannon crossed her arms and waited impatiently. "Kate," she squeaked out.

Shannon looked Kate up and down, threatened by her beauty. Yeah, Sawyer knew how to pick em.

"What the fuck are you doing here? This is my house."

Kate noticed the packed suitcase the woman dropped on the floor. A big 'Paris' sticker looked newly placed. She looked back up at Shannon, 'Youre with Sawyer?"

" Do I fucking look like housekeeping?"

"I...I didnt know," Kate backed up and grabbed her purse. Feeling like the foolest of them all. How could she believe Sawyer was special? How could she believe he really loved her? She knew she loved him. More than anything. And thats what stung the most. "Im gonna leave now-"

"You do that." Shannon said in a bitchy voice.

Kate wanted to scream, shout, pull the girls hair out but instead, raised her head and started walking out.

"Dont let the door hit your ass on the way out. Im sure Sawyer was a good fuck while it lasted, but I can see he has no respect for himself shacking up with white trash like you."

That was it. Being snotty was one thing. But throwing insults now? The last straw. She turned approached Shannon and slapped her.

Shannon staggered back. Shocked more than anything. She never expected anyone to ever fight her back and now that it happened...she slapped Kate back but Kate grabbed her hair and they started fighting, knocking things to the ground, breaking expensive vases.

Sawyer opened the door just then, shocked himself at the scene he just walked into. He immediately went for Kate and pulled her up, "Shannon?!" Kate pulled Shannons extensions out at she was pulled back by Sawyer and then threw them at her, then moved away from Sawyer, giving him a betrayed and hurt look.

"Baby, whatever she told you is a lie." He said with his hands in front of him. He didnt want Shannon to fuck this up for him.

"Forever you huh?" She grabbed her purse and ran out of there.

"KATE!" He turned angry eyes on Shannon, 'What the fuck did you say to her?"

Shannon just smirked and he left and followed Kate. But she was already gone. He went out into the street and couldnt see her in the sea of New Yorkers walking by. "KATE!!" He shouted. But she was gone. "FUCK!"

He stormed back upstairs. Shannon was sprawled on the couch with an angry demeaner as she tried to put her extensions back in.

"Get out." He fumed.

"So youre sleeping around already?!" She shouted in a huff and walked up to him. "Couldnt wait until I was gone to fuck someone else!"

"Jesus Shannon, get out now or I'll start from where Kate left off I swear to god. Its over!!"

"I needed a place to crash! I just got back from Paris today with no luck. No one wants me for anything."

"Yeah, big fucking surprise." He said, overly irritated with her.

"I talked to Sayid this morning. I couldnt get a hold of you. He told me about her. He told me about how you got her a modeling job!! Shit Sawyer! You KNEW before we broke up that I wanted to find a modeling job but you help HER instead?!"

"Shannon, this conversations over." He had no idea where Kate would go. But he had to find her. He walked to the door, "Youre ass better be gone by the time I come back or Im calling the police on you." He slammed the door shut as he left.

'Sawyer wait!!!"

But he was already gone.

-----

That night, the unveiling happened. But Kate wasnt there to see it. Sawyer stood in the back of the crowds as he watched it.

It was quite a sight alright.

Chapter 8

Sawyer walked the entire day. He knew Kate had no where else to go, which made him worry even more.

Seeing her up there in that ad in Times Square...she was so beautiful. He had to find her and he thought that maybe she'd come anyway. But he didnt see her anywhere.

He decided to go take a walk through central park...where they had walked and fell in love...

Half an hour later he was approaching the little bridge. It was cold. The wind whipped lightly and any moment it was about to rain, but he didnt care. Something drew him there and he was gonna go.

"How did you know where I'd be?"

He looked up at the feminine voice and couldnt believe his eyes. "Kate?" Came out his strangled voice. He approached her softly, she was standing in the middle of the bridge.

Kate looked down at the water. It looked as if she'd been crying. Sawyer went next to her, "She aint my woman Kate. She's an ex that just doesnt get a clue."

She wouldnt look at him and that killed his soul. "Kate-" he went to touch her face but she pulled away and finally looked at him.

"I know." She said softly. At his puzzled face, she said, "I called Desmond and asked him about her. He told me what happened."

"Then why are you crying baby?"

"Because," she wiped her face and her voice rose, "Because I was so stupid to run away. I was so stupid to think you didnt really love me. Its just..." she sighed hard and fought to look in his eyes, "Its instinct. To run when shit goes wrong. To run when things dont go right. I mess it up," her green eyes burned into his blues, "I thought you wouldnt forgive me for leaving you."

He touched her chin and lifted it slightly, earnestly saying, "Baby, how could I be angry with you? I love you."

Kate melted under his gaze and sniffed, "I love you too James."

He took her arms and wrapped them around his shoulders, grabbed her waist and wrapped his arms around her back, holding her close. "I wanna sing when you say that freckles."

Kate smiled at that and in an instant her lips were melded against his. His tongue opened her lips and swept into her mouth. Her fingers went through his hair as her tongue did the same and they stood like that for a long time, just kissing and kissing.

Finally he pulled away, a look of pure love on his face and said, "Come on baby, you got somethin to see."

He took her back to Times Square and showed her her ad. Kate looked on in wonder. She couldnt believe it! And it was all thanks to the mocha man. They stood looking at it for a long while. Sawyer told her that these ads will be in every department and fragrance store in the world. Kate couldnt believe her ears.

He took her home and thankfully, Shannon was gone.

Sawyer took her to bed and they made soft, sweet love to each other for the remainder of the night.

After a few rounds of hot sex, they relaxed on the bed side by side with smiles on their faces.

"You make me happy Freckles." He said as she lay against his chest.

"Ditto," she laughed and kissed his chest, then chin and jawline. Placing little butterfly kisses all along.

He chuckled and turned his face so she could get his lips and his hand went down to her already damp clit, stroking her swollen nub. "I love it when you talk dirty," he teased and spread her inner thighs open, slowly going ontop of her. "I love it especially when you say my name." He said with a husky growl and continued strokingher.

Her breath was caught in her throat as he slowly pushed his fingers inside of her body. Her eyes shot open and she clutched his shoulders. "Why dont you go ahead and say it."

She swallowed and fire flashed in her eyes, "Make me." Came her daring comeback.

He bit his bottom lip then clenched his jaw, "Have it your way baby." He took his dick and pushed it through her sensitive folds, lifting her knee farther up. Then he began the sensual friction they craved.

"Say it," he moaned as he pushed up and back down.

"James," she whispered with a shaky breath.

He grinned, a purely evil one, and leaned his head to the side, "Louder."

"James." She said louder and gasped when he pushed in further.

"You dont get it do you?" He went harder and she couldnt help but pant and whimper. His face took on a hard edge when he shouted, "SCREAM IT!"

"JAMES!!!!"

And she screamed his name for the rest of the night.

~~~~~~~~

Monday rolled around and James was reclining on the seat, tapping a pen against his chin casually. Desmond was complaining about the big hoo-rah his wedding had become. He wanted something elegant but simple, but since it was the governors daughter he was marrying, there were events he had to attend that led up to the actual ceremony. It was driving him insane.

"Yeah, well Lancelot, you knew you had it comin when you propsed to her."

"I hate you," Des said, sitting in a huff because he had to attend a luncheon the next day with the entire city hall staff.

Sawyer laughed, "I hear that alot," he drawled out.

"I hope you do," Des chuckled.

Men filed in the room and joined them at the long table. Danny Pickett stormed into the room with two other high end execs and Ben Linus himself.

"Whoa, who killed the tooth fairy," Sawyer said as he planted his shoes on the table.

''This isnt a laughing matter James. We're in serious trouble." Ben said.

"Cant be that bad," He rested his hands behind his head casually.

"No?" Ben through a magazine ad on his lap.

Sawyer picked it up and nearly fell backwards in his chair.



He righted himself and sat up, "What the hell is this some kind o' joke?!"

"I wish it were a joke James but it seems that Jack and his "cronies" as you so nicely put it have taken on a very big competitor for Sun, Juliet Burke." Ben stated all in one breath.

Sawyer couldnt believe his eyes. How did they hire Shannon?? What the hell!!

"As soon as they heard we were making a deal with Sun Kwon they scrambled to find her competitor. They were working on this all week, the ad will be released tomorrow."

Desmond stroked his chin, "But we already made our deal with Sun," he added. "We dont have anything to worry about."

"Au contraire Mr. Hume we have everything to worry about. Theres a clause in our contract." Ben looked around the room. "If for any reason in the first week of sales nothing sells, then we dont get our share of the money. Suns and Juliets fragrance go on sale tomorrow. If her perfume sells more then we lose a hell of alot of money gentlemen."

"Son of a bitch," Sawyer groaned.

''I knew from the beginning, that we never should have underestimated Jack Shephard."

Sawyer squinted at Sayid, "What the hell you talkin about Mohammed? Jacks a pice of shit, he didnt find this out on his own. Someone told him."

Pickett piped up, "What are tryin to say James? That someone here let Jack know about our deal with Sun?"

"Proposterous," Ben said. "No one here would do that."

"No one who wasnt lookin out for themselves," he looked pointedly at Sayid. "Namely someone who liked a particular girl and never got a chance in hell till now."

Sayid stiffened and looked at Sawyer, "Why are you looking at me James?"

"Makes me wonder how Shannon got the job." Sawyer continued. "You son of a bitch."

Sayid stood up as Sawyer went up to grab his collar. Desmond and other men flew around the table to break it up.

"What the hell is wrong with you brotha?!" Desmond shouted as he held Sawyers hands behind his back.

Hair across his face, Sawyer spat out, "Shannon told me that she talked to you. She told me on Friday goddammit. She knew about Kate gettin the job. She prolly called Jack the same fuckin night." He sagged and tore Desmond away, glaring at Sayid. "You sold us out."

Sayid put his hands up.

"Is this true Sayid?" Ben asked.

When Sayid didnt immediately answer, Sawyer did. "Fire his ass before I lit a fire under his ass."

Sawyer raked a hand through his hair and walked out of the office.

Good job Jas!  Keep it up!!

Great job Jas!  Interesting twist with Cindy's killer.  I really love how comfortable and at ease you make Kate and Sawyer with each other.  The meeting of the minds was adorable...heh!  Come on Des, suck it up! ;)  Can't wait for the next chapter.
