Kate sat on the beach alone, staring off into the sunset. Thinking about why she kissed Jack and why she had run away. She knew she would have to talk to him at one point but untill that time came, she wanted to avoid him as much as possible.

"Kate" Jack called

She acted like she didnt here anything

"Kate, we need to talk" Jack said

kate just put her head down

"Why did you run away?" jack asked her

kate said nothing

"kate" jack started to say

"because i was scared" kate interupted" im scared of falling in love" kate said, blinking the tears away

Jack wasnt sure what to say. So he didnt say anything

Kate was embarresed. She stood up and went to walk away.

Jack grabed her arm he wanted to tell her how he felt but couldnt.

She turned and looked at him "what are you doing?"Kate asked him

"nothing" jack said, letting go of her

Kate walked away

Later while jack was collecting wood, he couldnt help but think about kate, and why he hadnt told her how he felt. He regreted not telling her. He knew he'd have to tell her.

Jack went to look for kate, he found her.

"kate, can i talk to you?" jack asked

"sure" kate said.

They walked on the beach together, Jack fumbled around with the words in his head, trying to figure out How he would tell her.

"Kate" jack said

Kate looked at him

"i know how it feels, to be scared of falling in love" jack said. not sure what she was thinking

Kate put her head down

"But you dont have to be scared of me" jack said

"I love you" he said hoping she felt the same way

kate studerd " I-I love you to" she said shyly

they looked into each others eyes

the slowly went in for a kiss

"what the bloody hell" they herd charlie say from his tent.

kate laughed

" i guess we'll have to finish another time" Jack said smiling

"guess so" kate said still laughing.

Jack walked off to see what charlie was doing.

Kate decided that she wanted to go for a walk.

Kate walked into the jungle a bit but sat down for a rest. She couldnt stop thinking about jack, for the first time, she felt she could rely trust him. Maybe she wasnt so afraid to fall in love after all
