Author's Note: Okay. This fic took awhile to think up. But now I know what I'm doing. Hehe. This fic is kinda like the Jate/Skate fic. This will be mostly Jate angst with Jacket. Set during the finale before the Jacket kiss. The Jacket kiss will happen in the fic. And then it will go to when Jack and Kate talk. Anyways, I won't spoil anything else for you! Onto the fic! I don't own LOST either.
I looked at Sawyer with a look of shock plastered on my face.
"When I said I wanted to go back, you didn't want to! And now you want to go back?" I asked, shocked.
"I didn't want to go with you," Sawyer said.
I looked away from him, hurt. I thought he loved me.
"Juliet, you don't have to do that," Jack said, bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Yeah, Jack. I kinda do," Juliet replied.
"Let's do this," Sawyer interrupted, looking at Juliet. The, without looking at me, he walked away.
I looked back at Jack and Juliet.
"Don't do anything stupid," Jack said.
I saw Juliet smile. "I won't if you won't," she said.
Jack laughed and Juliet kissed him. I saw Jack kiss her back and rage filled my mind. They pulled away a moment later and I walked away.
When I was alone I bent down and tied my shoe.
"He didn't mean it you know."
I stood up and looked behind me. Jack was standing there.
"What?"
"Why are you here?" Jack asked, changing the subject.
"I needed to be alone for a moment. I didn't feel good," I lied. "What do you mean?" I added, eyeing him.
"He didn't mean it. Sawyer. He didn't mean it when he said he didn't want you to go."
"Then why'd he say it?"
"He wanted to protect you."
I was about to say something when another thought crossed my mind. "Why are you defending him? He'd never do that for you."
"Because I love you."
I stood there, surprised, thinking over what he said. He started to walk away but I stopped him.
"Jack, if you love me, why did you kiss Juliet?"
He stopped and faced me. "What?" he said.
"You heard me. Why did you kiss her if you love me?"
Jack looked at me, shocked. "Kate, I…" he trailed off.
My feelings for him raced through my body, dying to come out. "I love you too, Jack."
"If you love me, how come you slept with Sawyer?"
I was shocked. "How'd you know?" I asked.
"I saw you on the monitors."
I put my hand up to my head and sighed.
"How did we get to this point, Jack?"
"What do you mean, Kate?"
"I mean, how did we get to the point where we lie and keep secrets about everything?"
Jack shook his head. "I don't know, Kate."
"Do you love her too?" I asked a moment later.
"What?"
"Juliet. Do you love her?"
"Yeah."
I nodded and started to walk away.
"I don't love her as much as I love you, Kate," Jack called.
I stopped and looked at him. Tears started to race down my cheeks when Jack said that he loved Juliet.
"Really?" I asked.
He nodded. "Really."
More tears raced down my cheeks. "I'm sorry Jack," I whispered.
"For what?"
"I don't love you as much as I love Sawyer."
"How, Kate? He slept with Ana-Lucia!"
I stared at him angry and shocked. "Jack! Why? Why do you have to bring that up now? That is completely different!" I yelled, as more tears raced down my cheeks.
Jack looked at me, surprised. He walked over to me and pulled me into a hug. "I'm sorry, Kate. I shouldn't have brought that up. You were right. I'm so sorry."
I buried my head in his chest and cried. "I love you, Jack. I do. I really do."
"I know, Kate. I know," he whispered.
I hugged him tighter. I felt Jack kiss the top of my head.
"I'm so sorry I snapped. I was just jealous," I said, looking up at him.
"It's okay, Kate. It's okay. I love you too."
I kissed him on the lips, knowing that he was telling the truth.
