Moving in:

[Shannon]

Shannon
Had lost her step brother Boone in an accident which involved Loch and since then she had yet to speak to him again, she blamed him for Boone's death and now she felt scared and alone. Sayid was no comfort to her any-more though she still had strong feelings for him.

She had moved all of Boone's belongings into the caves and was setting up a little bed area for her to sleep in. She had found a piece of broken chairs and she lay-ed them out in a row and placed a blanket on top of them. This was to be her space, she wouldn't want anyone to come within distance of it and if they dare to touch her belongings she would surely flip.

The caves provided her protection from the elements and lately it had rained heavily none stop for days, so the best place to be was in the caves in close knit with the others, although not a word was said to her, and she didn't utter a word to them, she just kept herself to herself.

[Jaz]

Jaz trudged alone the beach, a blank expression on her face. Sawyer was no where to be seen, but that was no surprise. Infact nothing he did really surprised Jaz any more. It was like she already knew everything about him, just like memorising a song, she knew everything. But somehow she knew that wasn't true. There was much more to Sawyer than meets the eyes.

Jaz muttered softly under her breath, heading towards the caves. She wasn't really in a talking mood. She was just thinking about life. Being stuck on this stupid island!

She shook her head, as wet hair fell into her eyes. Growling angrily she pushed it out of her face. It was raining, but she didn't care. What else was there to do around here? She trudged into the cave and looked around. She spotted Shannon and frowned. Poor Shannon.

She hadn't know Boone to well, but what happened was horrible. She didn't know the full story and she was resisting the urge to judge Locke. She walked slowly over and sat down next to Shannon without saying a word. She didn't have anything to say anyway, she'd never been good at comforting people in the first place.

[Shannon]

Shannon was sat upon a rock, holding something in her hand. A piece of papter? Upon further inspection it was clear that the piece of paper was in fact a wallet sized picture. A picture of Boone. She sat there in a world of her own, not noticing the movement of others around her, and not noticing someone join her on the rock. She just sat there with her elbows upon her knees for balance and her head hung low, with her long blond hair falling down over her face. She sat and rubbed the picture with her fingers all the time thinking. Why does everyone I love end up dying? She wished she wasn't so mean to Boone upon arrival at the island, but that's the way she was with him, they always fought and always made up in the end, but this time it was different, she didn't get chance to say sorry for being such a bitch or get to say goodbye properly. She was there at the end, when he died in her arms, but still she longed for more time with him, to turn the clock back. And to make things right with him once more.

[Jaz]

Jaz watched Shannon for several seconds before clearing her throat "I know it's hard" she said slowly "Loosing someone". She did. She'd lost her mum, and that had killed her. But this was different. They were on an island. He might have lived if they wern't stuck on some stupid island. But no. Shannon had it hard. Jaz sighed, looking at the photo in Shannon's hand, sadness sweeping over her. It's always when you leats expect it. Before you manage to say good bye, sorry and how much you love them, their gone. She shook her head, whiping her eyes and looking at Shannon again. She needed some company. Even if it was just Jaz.

[Shannon]

"I just wish. Wish I could. I dunno!"
She sighed as tears formed again in her eyes and ran down her cheeks then she jumped up off the rock and continued.
"I need to get outta here!"
She walked a few paces, back and forth not nowing where to go or what to do.

[Jaz]

Jaz smiled slightly "We're on an island. I mean yea we're on an island but theres alot of places to go" she said with a shrug. Ok it wasn't a smart idea to say this but still."Atleast you still have Sayid" she said carfully, making sure it didn't sound to...forward. She sighed pushing her hair out of her eyes.

[Shannon]

Shannon just looked at her oddly, then she thought.
Aww Sayid, I was such a bitch with him, I wonder if he's ok?

She sat back down upon the rock the rain was still falling heavily and the splashes could be heard dripping from the tree tops onto the cliffs behind them. She sat and looked at Jaz once more and said.
"Do you know where Sayid is? I haven't exactly been sociable with him or any-one since. Since Boone died."

[Jaz]

Jaz shook her head "No sorry. I havn't seen him." She paused, starting blankly into space "Your so lucky to have hime" she said softly "I mean he's a decent guy" she said the corner of her mouth twitching. You could say Sawyer was a decent guy...but that was pushing it. She grinned to herself. He was ok....

[Shannon]

Shannon mannaged to crack a smile and a slight giggle when Jaz mentioned Sawyer being a good guy. He was fun to be around because he picked on everyone and gave them attitude and she was right Sayid was great, he cared about Shannon and things were going great between them both until her brothers death. Shannon had to make things right again between them, she had to atleast try, but he was no-where to be found at the moment and she was enjoying Jaz's company because everyone else tip toed around her, not speaking to her or even looking at her. So she contemplated on her best plan of action on how to get Sayid back and she spoke to Jaz some more until she found the best idea.
She looked at Jaz and said.
"So how is the hick? you and him you know?"

She fluttered her eyebrows and nodded her head hinting that she was talking about sex.

[Jaz]

Jaz grinned "He's determined not to let me know he likes me. I only know cause I'm the only one without a crule nickname. But hey" she replyed shrugging "You never know" she finished smirking. Sawyer. Playing hard to get. Normally that was the girls part, but maybe things have changed. She leaned back on her hands, grinning, tossing her hair out of her eyes. "But still....he's a good guy if you get past the whole red neck jerk thing..." she said slowly, grinning even more now. She was sure that there was a nice guy inside of him....somewhere.

[Shannon]

Shannon watched her facial expressions and said.
"You really like him dontcha?"
And without giving her time to answer she said.
"Well my advice would be go for it, while you can. Life's definately too short"
And with that she put the picture of Boone back into a piece of cloth and wrapped it up and bound it tight with a piece of cord and put it safely back into his suitcase.

[Jaz]

Jaz blushed "Maybe...." she said with a grin. So what if she did. "We'll be on here for awhile. Of course until someone dies that is" she said rolling her eyes "But I....I dunno. I guess I just can't cause I'm scared if we get off this stupid island he'll just leave like every other guy..." she said sadly. It was true. She wouldn't be surprised if he just up and lefted her if they ever did get off this island.

[Shannon]

"well you need to work out if he's right for you first"
She listened to her talking, she was nieve and also mature for her age, she wished that she was her, not a care in the world.
"Also don't push him too far, he might not be the settling down kinda guy. Get to know him while your here and see what happens"

[Jaz]

Jaz shrugged "Guess your right. You seem to know alot more about guys than me" she replyed with a grin. Jaz wasn't really one to have guys. She just...couldn't live like that. Unless the guy was amazing she had no interest in wasting her time. She grinned at Shannon "You seem to have alot of experiance in this genre"

[Shannon]

Shannon laughed and replied.
"God I wish. Boone was the only man in my life before I got here."
She paused for a minute, she wasn't telling the truth she'd rather not discguss her relationships with men, with Jaz. She wouldn't want her to know what she was like before all this. She lowered her head again and said.
"Well lets just say I know how to handle them, how to wrap them around my lil finger"
