2. No where specific in the timeline. Kate teaches Jack how it's done.

Doing It All Wrong

She always woke up before everyone else, when the sun was just about to peak out on the horizon, and the morning breeze was cool and fresh. She stepped out of her tent and stretched her arm. Scanning the beach she saw him, the only person to get up before her everyday, Jack.

Jack stood at the beach, his hands in his pockets and his eyes closed, as he welcomed the cool gusts of wind on his face. His stood barefoot with his jeans were rolled up just below his knees and his sleeveless purple shirt flapped across his body as it played with the wind. He stood at the edge of the water, where not every wave could crash against his legs, but rather every other or so would cover his feet, and as each wave left and sunk him a little a smile drew on his face.

Coming from behind him quietly, Kate stopped a couple of feet behind and said, "You're doing it all wrong."

Jack chuckled and turned his head to look at her, taking in her morning beauty, he smiled.

"Hey," she said.

"Morning," Jack replied.

He watched her as she pulled back a strand of hair behind her ear and came up beside him.

"I said you're doing it all wrong," she said again teasingly, "this is not how you sink. At this rate it will take you forever to get off the island."

"Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know there were rules to it," he joked, as she was now next to him, their arms brushing.

"Such an amateur!" she smirked, "You're lucky I am a pro, and willing to give you a few tips."

"Really?" he laughed.

"Yup," she said mischievously, "first of all, you need to be in a little bit deeper," she explained taking a step forward.

Jack did not move, but rather stood there watching her.

Realizing Jack had not moved forward with her, Kate stepped back towards him again.

She looked up at him and smiled back, as she stared into his eyes. Without looking down she took his hand and moved her forward with her, "We need to go deeper," she whispered.

Following her, Jack nodded, and interlocked his fingers with hers, without taking his eyes off of her.

Kate looked down at their interlocked finger and smiled. She looked at him and saw he had closed his eyes again, "and it's always more fun to have someone to sink with you," she said under her breath and closed her eyes.
