Made for this (Jack/Kate/Sawyer AU)

LVI's July 2009 contest 1st place winner! Very AU. Storyline as follows: The reset works and Kate ends up in LA in handcuffs, where she's set free due to her snazzy lawyer. Like any normal person, she heads straight for the nearest bar, where (unlike normal people) she meets Sawyer. The two hit it off and begin sharing a bed, and even go to the beach, where Jack, ever the sun-lover, spots them. Jack begins to remember. Meanwhile, Kate is Kate, so she freaks about her feelings for Sawyer and tells him she can't be with him. Like any normal person, she heads straight for the nearest bar, which also happens to be where Jack's doing his drinkin' these days. Jack tries to chat Kate up, but succeeds only in making her realise she's so not up for this. She runs home to Sawyer, tells him she made a mistake, and all's well - so well, in fact, they're getting hitched! Damn. Well, Jack goes to have a look at the ceremony, and though he can see Kate's happy, he intercepts her a few days later on her way home from work. Kate, not totally oblivious, realises he's following her. He responds to her trembling accusation of stalking with an invitation to go for some coffee. Hey, it's Jack! Kate's all "Uh. No." Jack has a good cry about it. Meanwhile, Kate and Sawyer find out they're expecting! What to expect when you're expecting: Jack, of course. He shows up at the maternity ward with his Crazy Eyes set to orange alert and offers Kate a sharp "congratulations" before throwing a tantrum in the locker-room. He takes pills to escape his constant thoughts of Kate and Sawyer's togetherness, and stalks Kate. In the end it all collides: Jack waits until Sawyer leaves for work, then breaks into Kate's house. The police is called to the scene (oh, hi there Ana-Lucia!). Jack, awash in memories, becomes convinced the reset was a mistake. He calls Kate and begs to see her. Sawyer apologises to Kate for leaving her alone, but Kate simply replies that at least now they know what they're up against. Jack, waiting in the dark, sees Kate's car approaching. Inside Kate and Sawyer steel themselves. Kate says "Let's do this" and steps out. Jack tells her they have to go back to the island! Kate yells at him. A lot. Jack finally interjects "I loved you" and tells her they weren't supposed to leave. Kate replies "Yes we were." Jack looks flabbergasted (as flabbergasted as you can look through a mist of oxycontin, anyway). "I remember," Kate says. Whoops! "It was all misery." At this, Sawyer hauls out his gun, Kate closes her eyes, Jack makes a Jackface, and BLAMMO! Kate and Sawyer can finally live in peace, but at quite a cost.
