I was watching Lost, season two, the episode where Michael brings Jack, Kate, Sawyer, and Hurley to the 'Others', and I thought that it was a very intense Jate moment, and even though I am a skater and always will be, like I said, Jate can be nice. You can tell how much Jack cares for Kate, that he actually carried her on his shoulders while he was hurt to get her away. That was in the episode though.
Turning Back:
"Run!"
Sawyer, Kate, and Jack ran as fast as they could, not noticing that Michael and Hurley'd been left behind.
Short metal pins shot toward them and they ran hard to get away.
Kate was breathing hard, sweat pouring down her back.
Sawyer fell to the ground, having been hit.
"Sawyer!" she screamed, rushing toward him, trying to pull him up.
He wriggled on the ground, seeming to be having some sort of seizure.
"Kate!"
Jack ran toward her as a dollsized pin stabbed into her pantsed leg.
She collapsed, shaking, unable to stop. Her thoughts weren't clear, she couldn't force herself to do her bidding.
Her bones rattled inside her and she just wanted to die, for this feeling to stop.
She felt herself being lifted by strong arms. A tattoo covered one, and through her jumble of thoughts she recognized them as Jack's arms...Doctor's arms.
"J-Jack-k-k." she muttered, her voice wavering and stumbling.
He continued to run, the woman hauled upon his shoulders.
So far he hadn't been hit yet, but he knew that his luck would soon run out. He just had to get Kate to a safe place. If she was harmed, he would never forgive himself.
"L-l-leave m-me!"
He could sense that she was soon going to pass out so didn't spend any time arguing, simply searched for a safe spot to set her down.
He ran on, a pin barely missing his bare shoulder. He stumbled and tripped through the clearing, then finally fell to his knees and set Kate down as gently as he could.
She was still shaking, he tried to calm her, but she was too scared.
S-Sa-w-yer," she gasped. He pulled the pin from her leg and blood started to gush out. He ripped a strand of fabric from his shirt with his teeth and wrapped it around the wound tightly, tying it.
"Kate, you need to calm down, please!" He yelled, handing her a water bottle.
She chugged down some water, though most of it spilled out of her mouth.
"S-Sawy-yer," the shaking was slowing and she was talking easier.
Jack's eyes looked pained that she was pining for Sawyer.
Shouts and bullet firing could be heard from not so far away. Jack knew that if they went back for Sawyer the Others would catch them for sure.
"P-p-please," she begged, her green-grey eyes filling with tears.
"Kate, if I don't come back, please don't worry about me."
He pressed his mouth to hers, knowing there wasn't much time.
He longed to hold her in his arms, feel her succumb to him.
He ran his hands through her hair, trying to show her how much this meant to him.
Then, without a word, he ripped his mouth from hers, and walked back to where the crisis had started. Kate stared after him with tear filled eyes.
She waited.
It felt like forever. She could feel a heavy sensation in the pit of her stomach and a dull ache in her heart.
She waited, but no one came.
Then, finally, she saw Hurley accompanied by Sawyer, returning.
Sawyer leaned on Hurley's shoulder for support.
"Freckles! Freckles, are you alright?" asked Sawyer, limping to her.
She waited in silence for Jack to appear.
'More waiting,' she thought bitterly.
As if reading her mind, Sawyer gently broke it to her.
"Jack's not here. They...got him. Didn't care 'bout us...only wanted him."
Kate simply fell backwards, onto her back, coffee curls splayed around her, green eyes staring into the sky.
'It's all my fault.'
A/N: So? Please review! This is my first Jate anything, so please be nice.
And I'm definetely still a Skater ;)
