This is my first fanfiction so please be nice! Also please R&R. Thanks:p
As soon as he was sure that Clarie and her baby were asleep, he took out the Mary satute he had just taken when he and Sayid had come across a plane-full of heroine. Charlie must have stared at it for at least a couple of hours, but it felt like a month had gone by since he had first taken it out. He kept trying to persuade himself out of not taking the herion, but how could he? Of course it had been easy for him to kick drugs before because he had no temtation, but now it was different. Charlie felt like he was still on the drugs, he could feel himself shaking madly from the temtation just like he had before when he was in need of a fix. He knew he couldn't take the drugs not with Claire and the baby around, but he couldn't bring himself to get rid of them either. But so what if he did throw away this statute, there were thousands more where this came from. Maybe if he just had a small amount of the heroine...but he was interrupted by someone walking through the camp at the caves. So he had to hastily shove the madonna figure back in his bag before someone noticed it. It was Kate, was it morning already? It must have been becouse she wasn't the only one up and about starting their day.
"Hey Charlie, you don't look so good,are you feeling alright?" Kate asked concerned.
"Yeah, I'm okay, tired is all. I can't get any sleep on this bloody island,too many rocks if you ask me..." Charlie tried to brush off his nervousness, but he could't. What if Kate had seen him?
"I think I'm going to go get Jack, you look like you're ready to pass out and you're all clamy. That can't just be because you're tired. You could be sick or something." Kate said this pretty fast as she ran in the direction of Jack's cave.
"JACK" Kate screamed, as she reached his cave. She knew that Charlie was not just 'tired' he was going through withdrawal. She had seen it before...
FlashBack
"Katie...watrudoin..?" Her father asked her in slurred words.
Kate sat there panicked, she had just been burning her father's stash of drugs,without his permission. He had been on them ever since her mother had gotten sick.
"D-Dad...are y-you okay?" she asked not knowing what to say.
Her father then hit her across the face and she hit the ground, she tried not to cry, for fear of making it worse.
"Katiewatrudoin?" He repeated, this time only angrier.
"Dad y-you can't do this anymore, y-you're hurting yourself w-with this stuff." Kate trembelled trying not to cry and not to upset her father at the same time.
"Katie...you..should...nothavedonethat." He said, his words less slurred noe that the drugs effects were wearing off, and he was getting his mind back in place.
"I know I should't have, but you were doing so good with stopping that I just thought I would get rid of them so you would't be tempted..." Kate said with uncertainly, seeing her father's face go pale and sweat on his brow, he was in dier need of a fix.
"...T-T-Thank-you." Kate's father said slowly.
End of FlashBack
"Hmmmmmm?" Jack mumbled half awake.
"I think Charlie is back on drugs..." Kate said.
"WHAT?" Jack shouted, "This can't be right, he kicked drugs in the first couple of weeks that we were on the island."
"What?" It was Kate's turn to be surprised.
"Yeah, Locke and myself have been helping him...how did you find out he was using?" He asked suddenly.
"That's another days story...but anyhow I saw Charlie with one of the satutes tht Bonne described before he..you know." Kate said sadly.
At that comment Jack ran out of the cave to find Charlie, leaving Kate standing there alone...
