Authors note: Ok I wasn't going to post this until I got more done but since Maria asked me to, I decided to post it.

A/N1: the last chapter of welcome to my life won't be up for a little while. Yeah I just found my notebook yesterday so don't expect it soon.

Disclaimer: Lost is not and never will be mine. I am merely an obsessed fan. With the emphasis on OBSESSED!

-I'd Do Anything-

-Chapter One-

-By allkat225-

A/n: This story is in the 1st person POV of Jack. Just thought I'd let you know.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sighing, I poured myself a cup of coffee and grabbed the paper.

It had been three weeks since we were rescued and now I was headed back to the hospital for the first time in five months.

But my mind was on more important things that saving lives. My mind was still on the island, with Kate.

God the things I'd do to see her again; to hear her laugh as she mocked my tattoos; even to tell her to stay behind because it was too dangerous. Yeah these last few weeks without her have been tough.

I'll get over it, I told myself as I clicked on the news.

As the TV went on about the usual, rapes, murders, etc, my train of thought drifted off to the happiest day of my life, the day I met Kate.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FLASHBACK!

I examined the injury on my back. It doesn't look fatal, but it will definitely need stitches. Too bad I can't reach my back. Dammit now what am I supposed to do!

Just then I heard rustling in the bushes.

I looked up to see a woman with curly brown hair and even browner eyes emerge from the bushes. Kate.

Desperate for help, I decided I had no choice but to ask.

"Excuse me."

She looked at me.

"Ever use a needle?" I asked.

"WH-what?"

"Ever… patch a pair of jeans?"

"I...I made the drapes…in my apartment." She told me.

Breathing a sigh of relief I said, "That's great, listen I need your help."

"With what?"

I turned and showed her the gash on my back. She grimaced at the sight of it.

"You want me to sew that up?"

"It's just like the drapes." I said, trying to cajole her.

"No with the drapes I used a sewing machine."

I was getting impatient. "Listen, you can do this. I know you can." I said gently. "Please, would you do this for me? I mean I'd do it my self, I'm a doctor, it's just I can't reach."

Kate took a deep breath. "Of course I will."

I smiled. "Thank you."

And that was where it all began.

END FLASHBACK

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Smiling at that wonderful memory, I sipped my coffee and turned off the useless news broadcast.

I then headed into my bedroom to get my tie and coat.

I sat down on my bed and spotted my favorite piece of paper on my night stand.

It was Kate's mug shot. She had given it to me as a parting gift, the day rescue finally came.

On it Kate wrote a message that read:

2 Jack

I will always remember you.

I hope you will remember me too.

But just to make sure you won't, I'm giving you this.

Don't Forget Me

-Kate

PS: Sorry I couldn't get you any wallet sized.

I read it over and over again. I'll never forget that good bye. It was one of the most heart rending days of my life. Just thinking about it brought tears to my eyes.

I looked at Kate's picture. She looked tough, almost unapproachable, but that was the complete opposite of her.

I was broken out of my trance by the door bell.

I sighed. It was probably another reporter dying to get and interview with The Savior of The Castaways. Pftt, savior my ass.

Even so I got up and walked to the door, almost dreading what was on the other side. But when I opened the door, my dread turned into complete and utter shock.

Standing in my doorway was…
