A Reunion

Kate awoke to the sound of a car horn outside the bedroom window. She sighed. It felt so good to just lie in bed. A nice soft bed was something that Kate did not take for granted. Even before the plane crash, she used to sleep on sidewalks.

They had returned from the island a week ago, after being there for almost 2 years. It was an absolute miracle that they were found after all that time. Many things had happened over the 2 years on the island, both good and bad. Claire had given birth to a beautiful baby boy, James. Several romances formed, including Claire and Charlie, and Jack and Kate. People began to work together on the island, forming a small community. The hardest thing about being on the island, was having to leave, and say goodbye.

The day they were rescued was a day for both celebration, and tears. The survivors had become so close that saying goodbye would be one of the hardest things that they would ever have to do.

For Kate, however, her memories of being rescued were far different. She had walked off the boat with Jack, never wanting to let go of his hand. When she was taken away by the police she was devastated. After reviewing her case several times, the police came to the conclusion that Kate was innocent, and let her go.

Shaking the memories of the police out of her head, Kate got out of bed and headed downstairs. The smell of pancakes led her to the kitchen, where she found Jack.

"Good-morning sleepy head." he called when he saw her walk in.

"Well here's something that you don't often see," replied Kate. "Jack, slaving over a stove!"

"Well I thought I would cook you something. Kind of like a celebration breakfast."

Kate knew what he meant. They had something to celebrate about. She glanced down at the brand new engagement ring on her left hand. She smiled.

"Well who said that I even like pancakes Jack?" she replied.

He laughed. "It's better than boar and mangoes though right?"

She walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his waist. After kissing him she said, "Mrs. Shepard, I like the sounds of that."

"Me too."
