Thanks everyone who reviewed…I'm actually writing blindly most of the time as I'm still trying to figure a plot. Also just take this into account. 1) I don't know anything about LA. 2) Don't know anything about Iowa if I refer to it. 3) Or Sydney, if I refer to it also.

Jack hadn't seen the woman again, but suddenly found himself thinking over anything he could say to her if the chance happened again, for a good while, without realising. They even managed to defy the laws of chance and not see each other again in the airport, upon arrival, at all; not even at the baggage claim.

Kate was in the exact same position. She was actually starting to question her mentality because to her…well it wasn't her. She never usually felt like that. Feeling. Feelings? Ha! Get a grip…strangers! From the long flight, the bad seating, and the embarrassing incident, all she wanted to do was get a cab, and get home to her apartment and her dog, and just flop down on the couch.

She started dragging her heavy case out of the arrivals gate and through the crowd that had gathered waiting for their family and friends. Kate had no one waiting for her. The family members she had been staying with were the only ones that actually talked to her anymore since she left Iowa, and that was because they had also left to escape the rest of the mess that they had once called home.

Once she got out side she sighed with relief, taking in the cool evening air. Luckily she only had a small wheelie case, small enough to fit into a taxi, and so spotting one parked up with no visible occupant, she strode over and opened the door, half pushing her bag in, and herself.

The opposite door opened and half a man entered before noticing half a case and person squished in already.

"Hey!" He shouted. Kate looked up and stopped struggling. "This is my taxi." He then ducked down into the interior to see the person. "Oh." He stopped and his previously, partially aggressive face softened down again to a smile.

"Sorry…I thought it…was empty." She said starting to back, back out of the door again.

"No. No its alright, we can share." He looked at her again after looking through the back window to the boot, where his luggage was stored. "It'll save time and the trouble.

She smiled at him in agreement, and began once again, pushing the luggage across so she could fit in, while he got in and shut the door.

The driver just sat silently the whole time watching, kind of amused by the shyness of the situation. "Ehem." Getting their attention needing to know where they were headed.

"Oh yeah. Where you going?" Jack asked Kate.

Kate gave her address to the driver who nodded and started off on the short journey.

"Is that where you live? Or…" Jack asked her as soon as she had told the driver.

"Yeah…why?" She asked feeling a little uneasy, for all she knew he could be a complete psycho, not that he looked it.

"Cause I live 4th floor." He said, which made Kate really relax, and then she thought back, to just before she had left for Sydney.

She got on well with the woman next door, and regularly spent time chatting over coffee, if they had a chance. The last time they had talked, she had mentioned that there was a new guy moving in across the hall. He was doctor, and apparently very nice in all respects. Both had liked this prospect, but never actually got to see or meet the man in question, as it was rumoured the night after he moved in he left again.

"You're a doctor." Kate said, coming out of her thoughts, not realising how strange and completely non relative to the situation it was.

Jack gave her a slightly confused look, wondering how on earth someone could assume or guess that so easily. "Yeah…How did you…?"

"You moved in across from me, I heard you were a doctor from one of the neighbours." She turned to look at him and smiled. Oh she was loving this, not only did she meet a hot guy on her flight, but hell, he was living across the hall from her…what a coincidence.

He returned the gesture. "Oh well, at least I know someone in the building now. Well…sort of, I don't even know your name." He said with a small laugh.

"I'm Kate."

"Jack."

The rest of the journey passed mostly in silence but a comfortable one at least, just watching the time pass. Both thinking about how easily they got on, Jack feeling pleased that he now had a friend, in the new apartment building, and Kate just thanking her lucky stars.

They pulled up outside the old but large building, Kate pulling out her small bag, and getting her keys out for the main door, and Jack hauling out his larger case out of the trunk, and then following Kate to the entrance where she was holding open the door for him. They continued on in, and got into the lift taking them to the 4th floor.

"Well this is me." Kate said as they reached her door, apartment fifteen, and began putting the key in the lock.

"Well, see you around." He replied with a smile taking only about 2 additional steps to his own door, number sixteen.

"I'm sure you will." She said softly smiling at him one lasting time before disappearing through her door.

He stopped fiddling with his door when she had smiled at him the last time and stood and watched her till he could see her no more and the door had shut. With the snap of the her door lock clicking into place, he came out of his daze like state and entered his home, for the first time properly since moving in.

Ok that's where I've had to leave this one, but the next one should be up to my usual length standard.

As always review :D!
