I was sitting there was Aaron on my lap. He was trying to get to sleep but Jack screaming at Sawyer for one reason or another was keeping us all awake. Aaron started to cry. Charlie heard and walked over to see how I was. I told him I was tired, Aaron hadn't been sleeping well recently. He offered to have him for the night so I could get some sleep. I appreciated the offer but felt bad making him lose sleep instead of me. Aaron was my responsibility, not his.

"No thanks, you need your sleep, you're the one helping build the raft to get us off this island, not me." I replied.

"No, honestly, by the looks of you, you haven't slept properly in days" He insisted.

"Well look why don't you just stay here and if I do fall asleep, then, you can have him for the night. Alright?" I smiled at him.

"Okay then" He smiled back.

We hadn't spoken properly in ages. I had missed our little chats. He told me about how the raft was going. And how he was really getting fed up with being here. I mean we all were, but we told each other what we missed about home, a cup of tea, TV, friends, family. I thought about Aaron's dad. About how much of a mistake he was. How much I regretted ever being with him. I knew being a single mum would be difficult but I wasn't going to get some guy just to play dad to Aaron. I didn't want there to be another guy, not for a while anyway, being a mum would be hard enough without having to keep a guy at the same time. But I had no plans with anyone in the near future anyway.

Turns out Charlie and me had a lot in common, well, we both missed our own beds the most! We stayed up talking for another few hours. Aaron had fallen asleep when Jack had finished screaming at Sawyer. That was another thing that me and /Charlie had in common, we both thought Sawyer was an idiot. We told each other what we thought of the others on the island. Jack, annoying that he was taking control. Ana Lucia, Way too violent, Kate, well she was just Kate.

Eventually Charlie went to his own tent. I slept well that night. Aaron stayed asleep, so did I. The next day I didn't see much of him, he was off doing one thing or another, building a church or something. I've lost count of 'projects' people do on this island, but I suppose people have to do something to keep themselves sane, I'm bring up a child, he's building a church, or a raft, or a giant sign or something.

Anyway, I saw him again that evening. I was speaking to Kate about food when he came along. He asked how I slept that night. I felt slightly embarrassed him asking me this in front of Kate, she soon left us.

"I'll leave you two to it then" She said as she left and winked at me.

I looked at him and smiled in a friendly way.

"Yeah, fine thanks"

"So you want me to take him tonight, don't worry, I'm not going to talk to you all night this time." He said.

"I don't mind, last night was fun". I told him. I hoped he didn't get the wrong idea, and want us to be more than friends. I didn't want to ruin the friendship we had.

We carried on talking to till late that night. I suppose my feelings for him had changed. I began missing him when he wasn't there. I began to start staring deeply into his eyes whilst he was talking to me. But as soon as he left, I came back down to earth. He may be a great guy, but he wasn't what I was looking for. In fact he was just what I didn't want at the moment. He was just some old singer that everyone had forgotten about who had happen to be on the same plane as me when it crashed. I didn't really want anything to do with this man, did I……?
