Well, I was on vacation and wrote this little onshot. Hope you like it. And for everyone who´s interested in it I´m working on the funeral for Sad Days. But it´s really hard for me to write down. I don´t know why but I´m working on it.

They had decided to make camp at night. ´It would be dumb to go trough the jungle with so many people by darkness.´ Their leader had explained his decision. Sun, Rose and Claire had protested at first. They just wanted to go to the beach to their husbands and boyfriends. But after several discussions about what would be the best for the whole group they had finally gave in.

The campfires were burning and there were many small groups sitting around them. Just one person was moving. A woman with dark curly hair made her way trough the people. She was going straight into one direction. To a man standing there, alone, looking down into the valley.

´Hey! ´ She said loud. He turned around.

´Hey, Kate! ´ Jack said smiling, but when he saw the look on her face his smile died. ´What's going on? ´ He wanted to know.

´Oh, nothing is going, Jack. But why did you do this? ´ Kate said looking right into his eyes, raising her voice.

What the heck is she talking about? Jack thought confused. ´What? I don't-´

´Locke was pointing a gun at you. Trying to kill you and everything you did was to say ´Just do it John´

That's what she was talking about.

´I knew he was bluffing.´ He said knowing that it wasn't a really convincing answer.

´You knew he was bluffing? ´ Kate said in disbelief. He wouldn't just give her such a hilarious answer and tell her to go. ´You couldn't have known that. You scared me.´ She whispered the last words, lowering her head, trying not to sound vulnerable.

Carefully he lifted up her chin with his right hand, forcing her to look into his eyes again. ´I'm sorry. I never meant to scare you. I just wanted to get off this island. Wanted to save everybody.´ He said trying to explain himself.

Kate closed her eyes for a moment and then said ´Well you did.

´No, I don't. I didn't save you.´ Jack responded silently. He knew that someday they would have this talk but he had hoped that it wouldn't be this early.

She looked at him and smiled. Why is she smiling? Jack wondered.

Kate seemed to be searching for words, but they just came before she could think about any consequences. They came right from her heart. ´You don't have to save me. I am going to jail. No, don't look at me like that. I will go. But I'm going with the knowledge that when I get out there's maybe someone waiting for me.´

Jack frowned. ´Do you really think Sawyer is- ´ But he was interrupted by Kate.

´I wasn't talking about Sawyer. The words hung heavy in the air. Jack wasn't sure if he had got them right. He just kept looking at her trying to sort out his thoughts. Someone. Not Sawyer. But who? Kate into jail. Waiting for her. Not Sawyer.

´Will you wait for me, Jack? ´ Kate continued ´Because if you do I'm willing to stop running. I'm willing to stand still. I love you.´

Jack smiled. How long had he waited for her to say something like that. And he knew perfectly well what to respond.

´I would wait for you forever.

Now Kate smiled. She closed her eyes and kissed him. He responded the kiss and made it deeper now with her arms around his neck. Slowly they pulled of. But they kept smiling, standing there arms around each other, her head resting at his shoulder. Both not knowing what the future would bring. Just enjoying the moment, trying to keep every second of it in their hearts, for the bad times which would come for sure.

So guess. Leave a review. Do you love it/like it/hate it? I want to know. Thanks anyway.
