Genre: College Days AU
Word Count: 1192
Rating: R for suggestive language & ideas
Warnings/Spoilers: None for the show
Disclaimer: Don't Tell Me What I Can't Do! (I don't own any of it, nor do I make any money!) Oh, and I doubt Jack & Sawyer ever roomed together away from the island.
Beta: Only me, myself and I, I'm afraid. Let me know if I really screwed up
Summary: Jack, Sawyer and Claire (and Aaron) share an apartment as the guys attend college. Boone is a stray that Jack brings home, and Sayid is a 'friend' of Sawyer's.
Author’s Notes: Written for a Trope challenge at 1_million_words: The Pretty Freeloader . I didn't delve into it too deeply, but this is where the muse took me. Title from the Rolling Stones' song 'You Can't Always Get What You Want'.
