Yes, I Did
"Your brother is very overprotective of you."
Shannon looked up sharply as Sayid approached her from behind. "You startled me!" she snapped. "Boone? Yeah. He cares about me…a lot. Why do you bring it up?" She paused. "Did he approach you?" she asked warily.
"Yes. Right before he entered the jungle with Locke earlier today."
She let out an aggravated sigh. "I can't believe it! I told him never to do that again! What did he say to you?" she demanded.
Sayid let out a breath. "He was very angry with me. He told me to stay away from you."
"And…" Shannon hesitated, "what did you say?"
"Exact words?" he asked. "I said, 'and what if I don't?'."
A shy, happy smile crept onto Shannon's face. She genuinely liked Sayid and hoped that this was a good sign. "Did you really?"
"Yes," he said. "I did." And with that, Sayid handed her a beautiful red flower he had plucked out of a nearby tree, lightly kissed her cheek, and made his way back into the jungle.
