Sawyer/Kate Fic/ Goodbye...For Now
Finally finished the Skate fic I promised what, months ago! But I had very good reasons i.e college, lack of inspiration!
I hope you like, remember comments make me feel good! I'm really liking writing fics, so hope I can do lots more!
Title: Goodbye…For now
Fandom: Lost
Pairing: Sawyer/Kate
Rating: PG
Summary: An insight into Kate and Sawyer’s thoughts as they spent their last moments together on the chopper.
Notes: I had this idea straight after I saw the Finale. But I was busy writing my other fiction so I postponed this one, so I just wanted to get it done. Im actually quite proud of this fic, you can be the judge!

Kate
I could see him approaching, strands of hair covered his eyes and his focus was simply getting to the chopper, unaware of anyone around him. Slowly as he made his way through the grass he began to look up. Eyes flicked open, he saw me. Eyebrows raised, extending his cheekbones he greeted me with a smile. That’s all I expected from him but still it was nice to see. He cared, he wanted to be here with me and we were going to get off this island, together.
I didn’t have time to stop. Still my mind was racked with a million thoughts, but I was composed. I never let the feelings show. That’s who I am and that’s who I’ll always be. A tiger don’t change its stripes. I chuckled to myself, remembering how amusing it sounded to me when he said that to me, but now it did make a lot of sense. I then saw Jack and hurried after him. Still aware that Sawyer’s eyes were fixed on me. Jack didn’t say anything. He didn’t even look at me, just kept his calm, natured approach. My fingers traced along his jaw line but he hardly said anything. That’s Jack for ya.
“Freckles,” Sawyer grinned, his teeth gleaming back at me. I gazed up at him as he offered his warm palm to help me in. Have to admit it felt nice to be treated like a lady. Not running through watery fields and climbing up trees as I usually do. His hands supported me as I entered the chopper, and he waited until I was comfortable before joining me. He was really looking out for me. Like he always promised. The doors coming to a shut he squeezed next to me and felt myself snuggled against his thighs. It felt good to be that close to him.
Sawyer
With Kate huddled close to me I never wanted to leave. Everything was happening so fast, and really this is what I wanted. But did I really want to go back? It didn’t feel right. Everything I had abandoned when we crashed, it seemed fitting because it couldn’t replace the life I had built on this island. Being with Kate gave me a whole new purpose. Finding out who I really was, capable of caring for a baby. Sacrificing myself for the greater good. I wasn’t doing this for attention. I had to do it. I was sick of being the bad guy.
I turned towards Kate, her curls shielding her face as she too, looked out of the window, contemplating what was happening. Her deep breathing showed how intense she was feeling right now, would it be wrong if I touched her, gave her a cuddle? I settled for a brief graze of the thigh.
Looking to the front of the chopper Frank was guiding it through the trees. However he looked puzzled. Tapping the equipment in front of him and peering outside he gulped and exchanged worried glances with Jack. Whatever it was, it can’t be good. Not now.
“We’re losing fuel.” It confirmed my expectations and both Kate and I gave each other anxious glances. My hands gripped hers for a moment.
“…We have a fuel leak. “ Sayid informed us. As Frank began to manoeuvre the chopper with a struggle he suggested we remove anything that was unnecessary. Quickly we hurled every piece of loose luggage and equipment that we could spare. It was too late though. We were doomed.
Kate
I saw the look in his eyes. He was constantly gazing out of the window and back at me. Frank mentioned we needed to lose at least “100 pounds.” As Hurley uncomfortably shifted, Sawyer leant in closer to me. I was mouthing No. I didn’t think he would, but I knew he’d do it. He promised to look after me and this was the only way it seems. Please don’t…you don’t have to do this. I felt his breath on my neck as he whispered delicately in my ear. Why was he whispering? This must be important. Somehow it blew past me because I realised he couldn’t leave me. Not now. Not after everything.
“I have a daughter in Alberquerque. Find her and tell her I’m sorry. I love you.” I felt myself tearing up.
“Why are you telling me this?” He said no more, but gave me one last smile. Giving me a kiss I shut my eyes, fully immersing myself never wanting to let go. You taste like strawberries.
One last glance and he was gone. Plummeting to the water I couldn’t believe what had just happened. We were so close. My eyes never left the window; his fingers brushed his hair back and he ventured towards the beach, escaping my view. Fighting back the tears I couldn’t even hear Jack call my name.
I wasn’t the only one though. Hurley looked as if he’d burst at any minute, his lip quivering. He didn’t know what to do, where to look, he was just puzzled. Sayid looked very remorseful as he glanced at me. Maybe he pitied me. With Sawyer gone though we had enough fuel to at least make it to the boat. That’s what we wanted really. He didn’t have to do this but he made that sacrifice. Still I kept going over what he had said, his last uttered words in my ear.
“Kate we’ll go back for Sawyer when we get the boat.” Jack kept reassuring me. It didn’t matter. I didn’t want to leave him at all. But I said nothing. I wasn’t going to let the emotions show. I knew it. We’d be reunited. I made Sawyer a promise and if that’s what it takes, I’ll do it. I’ll come back for you.
I hope you like, remember comments make me feel good! I'm really liking writing fics, so hope I can do lots more!
