So...remember when I said that I finally wrote slash? Well, that's true. This wasn't it though. I've since decided, that one isn't going to see the light of day. I needed more practice so I've been writing and writing over the past couple of weeks and this is the first thing that I feel comfortable showing everyone. Or at least as comfortable as I'm going to get. *begins chewing on finger nails* I have this other thing that I'm working on too. It's much longer, but it's also going to require a little more work. So, here it goes, my first slash fic to be posted on LJ, and hopefully not my last:

Title: Getaway
Rating: PG-13, for language only
Summery: Sawyer can't get Jack to come out of the closet. Literally.
Disclaimer: I do not own Lost. At all. I wish but alas...
Author's Note: This is pure, unadulterated sap. It's fluffy, happy, sappy fluff. It's also not an original idea and has probably been done much better by many people before. And with porn.



“You have actually heard of a vacation, right?” Sawyer threw his duffel bag on the floor at the foot of the bed, then flopped down on top of the heavy down comforter. He sighed, checked his watch, and stared at the ceiling fan as it went around and around.

“Shut up,” Jack called from the depths of the walk-in closet. He’d been in there for almost an hour now. Sawyer knew because he’d managed to throw a few shirts and a pair of jeans into a bag, make himself a sandwich, eat it, and come back to the bedroom to find Jack still standing in front of a row of shirts, examining them closely, like X rays. For a short time it was amusing, but now it was just annoying the hell out of him.

With a small huff, Sawyer jumped off of the bed, leaning against the door frame of the closet with his arms crossed over his chest. “I can’t believe you ain’t done yet,” he said. Jack would classify it as complaining, but Sawyer firmly believed that after an hour of pacing the floor, bored out of his mind, waiting on Jack’s indecisive ass, he had earned the right.

“Just because every item of clothing you own can fit in a drawer…” he replied, turing to face Sawyer for only a second before, once more, analyzing the row of shirts in front of him. Sawyer had to snort in something adjacent to contempt. Jack’s closet was enormous. He had more suits then could possibly be necessary, a thousand shirts, and what seemed to Sawyer to be a thousand pairs of the same black pants. Half of this stuff, Jack didn’t even wear.

“Let’s make this simple,” Sawyer said, pushing Jack out of the way and ignoring him when he protested. He quickly grabbed two white dress shirts, a red one, a blue one, and a green tee shirt, then dropped them into Jack’s suitcase. He pulled two pairs of jeans from and open drawer, threw them in as well, then slammed the suitcase shut.

“There,” he said decidedly, picking it up and holding it out to Jack.

“You can’t just randomly pick clothes and drop them in, Sawyer,” he protested, but took the suitcase anyway.

“You’re way too practical for your own good, Doc,” Sawyer told him as he left the closet, overjoyed that Jack was following him. “And there wasn’t anything random about it. Those were my favorites.”

Jack smirked as he closed the doors of the closet and set his suitcase down next to Sawyer’s duffle bag.

“Aww.”

Sawyer scowled. “Shut up.”

“You’re such a sap.”

“Oh, so it was me that wanted to fly off to the Bahamas for our anniversary? Oh, no wait, I seem to recall that was you.”

Jack rolled his eyes. “Okay, so I’m a sap too.” He checked the tickets one last time, grabbed his wallet and keys and took a look around the room, trying to come up with anything he might have forgotten. Unable to think of anything, he put his wallet and keys in his pocket. “And you could have said no.”

“Two weeks of nothing to do but lay around in the sun, sleep all day, and fuck like rabbits? Why the hell would I say no to that?”

Jack looked down at his suitcase. “Do you think I have enough clothes for two weeks?”

“You think you’ll be needin’ them?” Sawyer smirked.

“This should be fine,” he said, trying not to grin and failing.

“Plane takes off in two hours,” Sawyer reminded Jack, his eyes cast down to his watch once more. He picked up his bag and slung it over his shoulder. “We gotta leave soon if we’re gonna get through security.”

“Do we have to fly?” Sawyer would most definitely call that whining, but since he was no more eager to be back in the air than Jack, he decided to bite down on the many sarcastic replies that immediately sprang to his mind.

“Well I sure as hell ain’t getting’ back on a boat.”

Jack nodded slowly. He remembered well the weeks it had taken the rescue boat to get back to dry land. He had spent most of it with Sawyer, in their cabin, taking care of him while he was violently seasick. If he had a choice between falling out of the sky all over again or praying to the porcelain gods his whole anniversary, Sawyer would happily take another plane crash, thank you very much. At least the odds of that were slime to none.

“Yeah, alright,” Jack replied.

“Got the keys?”

He nodded. “Yeah.”

“Tickets?”

He held them up for Sawyer to see.

“Then what’re we waiting for?”

Jack turned off lights as they went, the bedroom, the hallway, the kitchen, and made sure to set the alarm and lock the door behind them. Unexpectedly, Jack felt content instead of anxious, excited to get away instead of nervous about the responsibilities that he would miss. In fact, the closer they got to the car, the less he was thinking about that at all.

“Happy anniversary Sawyer,” he said, before they reached the car.

Sawyer smiled despite his best efforts not to. “Happy anniversary Jackass.”

Awwwww... *melts* I love schmoopy, happy together future fic! And Jack fussing about his clothes...hehe, that's like me, packing at the last possible second. I loved it.

And don't feel nervous about posting stories - I find it's usually the ones that scare you that get received the best. I'm almost done my SPN story and it's kinda been my baby all weekend so I'm nervous, but I worked hard on it, which I'm sure people will notice and they'll like it. Long story short: Post with confidence! ;)

Thank you. That's so great to hear. :) Jack is just fussy period, so I can totally see him standing in front of his clothes, agaonizing over what to pack, what's the most practical, how much he'll need. And I can also see that driving Sawyer crazy.

And don't feel nervous about posting stories - I find it's usually the ones that scare you that get received the best.

I find that's true most of the time as well. I think I'm just nervous because this is new for me. The more practice I get, the less nervous I'll be, I think. :) And the nice feeback doesn't hurt.

*is all melted and happy and a big puddle of aww*

Domestic bliss with Jack and Sawyer, that's so lovely *cuddles fic and its author*

And there wasn’t anything random about it. Those were my favorites.”
*giggles* Of course.
I have the biggest smile on my face right now, thanks so much :)

Aw, thank you! That's sweet. :) I can't resist the happy, and future fic is always the best. I'm glad you liked it.
22nd-Oct-2006 09:18 pm (UTC)
So cute, I love it :) I just adore the boys being all domesticated like this. And celebrating an anniversary? That makes me very happy. Jack deliberating over his clothes was so cute but Sawyer being able to pick out all his favourite things so quickly, cutest thing ever. *snuggles them both* *snuggles you too* Welcome to the world of slash ;)
22nd-Oct-2006 09:31 pm (UTC)
Aww, thank you. :D I can't resist the cute. I really can't. I was a little afraid that it would be too corny, but in the end, I think it came off right. I'm glad you liked it.

Welcome to the world of slash ;)

Glad to be here. :D

This fic put a big, schmoopy smile on my face. It was sweet and loving and humorous. I adore futurefics, esp ones that depict the characters as having found a way to peace and happiness, and this did that in such a fun way.

Congrats on your first posted slash fic!! I look forward to more!

If I do keep writing slash, which I plan to do, I think I'm going to be the go-to girl for the sappy schmoopy stuff. :) I really love writing it, and it makes me feel happy and satisfied.

I'm glad you liked it. :) It means so much. ♥

Awwwwwww. I'm not often a fan of the fluff. Or of Jack/Sawyer, really... (I'm usually all Sawyer/Sayid, mmm torture. haha.) But I liked this. It made me giggle. T'was sweet.
22nd-Oct-2006 10:58 pm (UTC)
Aw, well thank you. :) Getting people to read outside their OTP can be tricky, so it's a great compliment that you like it.
22nd-Oct-2006 11:12 pm (UTC)
welcome to the dark side darling! =D
there is no turning back!

it was really sweet! I loved it, thanks. Of course Sawyer would be efficient where Jack is fussy, I can totally see that!

I love the fact that Jack is taking Sawyer to the Bahamas for an anniversary. awww. the mere fact of an anniversary puts me in a soft pleased state.

keep posting! nothing to be afraid about!

it was really sweet! I loved it, thanks. Of course Sawyer would be efficient where Jack is fussy, I can totally see that!

Oh yeah. Jack would so agonize over the most practical clothes to bring and Sawyer would just grab the ones he likes and throw them in a bag. :) Jack is so fussy and I'm sure that would get on Sawyer's nerves, big time.

I love the fact that Jack is taking Sawyer to the Bahamas for an anniversary. awww. the mere fact of an anniversary puts me in a soft pleased state.

I'm a complete and total sucker for fluff, so it makes me pretty happy too. :) Don't worry, they'll be more. And I'm sure I'll be less nervous the more I post. I'm glad you liked it and thank you for reading.

*hugs*

*explodes from cute*

Yay for first-time slash, woot! This is absolutely adorable, hon. You had nothing to be afraid of. :D
23rd-Oct-2006 12:47 am (UTC)
As one of the writers that I admire the most, you have no idea what that means coming from you. Thank you so much sweetie. *glomps to death*
23rd-Oct-2006 12:58 am (UTC)
Psssh. *blushes* Isn't this supposed to be about complimenting YOUR writing talents? ;)
23rd-Oct-2006 01:01 am (UTC)
Eh, I think it can be about both. ;) *loves*
23rd-Oct-2006 03:13 am (UTC)
You have nothing to be nervous about, this was wonderful!!

I love post island Jack and Sawyer, but most of all I love the little bit of snark but with a cute side to it, Jack being all anal about things and of course, THEY ARE GOING ON VACATION.

Loved it!!!
23rd-Oct-2006 03:19 am (UTC)
Aw, thank you. :D That's sweet of you to say. Jack has to be anal. It's part of who he is. And of course he would be anal about packing, even though a vacation is supposed to be about relaxation.

I'm glad you like it hun. :D That's great to hear.
23rd-Oct-2006 04:51 am (UTC)
Aw, we NEED fic like this right now! Canon is being so brutal, we need sunshine! *hugs*
23rd-Oct-2006 05:16 am (UTC)
I honestly think that's why I wrote it. Fic therapy. :D And thank you. I'm glad you approve.
