(Claire's point of view)

Looking out at the sea I realize I was such a fool yesterday. Making Kate and Danielle run half way across the island to find medicine only to find that it was gone. I know that Aaron is asleep (for once!) as I hold him and I think back on the memories with Ethan in them. He had been so nice to me, almost as if he were a regular person. For a minute I almost believed that he cared for me. Before there had only been hatred and fear when she heard the name Ethan but now there were other emotions along with the first all jumbled up in my head. I decided as soon as I remembered the other Ethan that I would keep it a secret, not wanting Kate, Jack, or even Charlie to get the wrong impression about it.

"Besides," I think to myself, " He convinced me to give my baby to him! Who would be inhuman enough to trick a mother into giving you her baby?" But I also remember that feeling of relief when I had decided to give my baby to him… maybe I was the one at fault?

Life was going on as normal for most of the survivors on the beach. The button was pushed, the people ate, Sawyer gloated over his victory over the guns, and Locke and Jack gave each other challenging looks. Yes it would seem that life was carrying on as normal… until a hoarse laugh broke the slightly tranquil silence.

"A pregnancy test? Oh you have got to be joking!" Sawyer barked, barely controlling the bray of laughter that longed to come out. Sun rolled her eyes and tried not to strangle him.

"Yes a pregnancy test! You know it's what a woman uses to see if she's pregnant or not? Or did you never stick around long enough with your girlfriends to find out what that was?" Sawyer's jaw dropped slightly at Sun's forward attitude. She had always seemed so quiet and respectful before… but he had to admit the girl could certainly deliver a verbal punch.

"All right! Easy there Miss. Tongue of Steel! I'll give you your special pregnancy tester thing… it comes with a price though." Sun cocked an eyebrow and Sawyer could see her considering.

"What are the conditions?" Sun asked carefully and Sawyer nearly laughed again at the cautious look on her face. Tilting his head cockily and smirking as he leaned back against his chair Sawyer answered.

"Well all I need from you is to answer a question." Sawyer paused for a dramatic effect and then continued, "I ain't the father am I?" Sun wasn't sure whether she should yell at him or simply pull that lawn chair from under him and jam it painfully down his throat. She quickly decided on the former.

"Why you immature, inconsiderate, cold-hearted…" Suddenly there was another female voice chorusing in with Sun's shouts.

"First class moron!" Kate finished for Sun and glared at Sawyer. Speaking of Sawyer he wasn't feeling too hot with too angry women closing the gap between them and himself. Deciding not to ruin his newly obtained reputation Sawyer merely shot back stubbornly,

"All I want is the answer and Sun has her pregnancy test." Sun glared for a moment and then rolled her eyes.

"No."

"No what?" Sawyer asked gleefully. Kate nearly took a swing at the jerk but Sun stopped her, knowing that this was a battle not worth fighting.

"No you are not the father Sawyer."

"Why thank you Sun! Now you can have your precious test. I'm sure I saw one here somewhere!" Soon Sawyer returned from the mound of loot that was behind him and waved a pregnancy test in the air. "Got it!"
