"I'm going out to get something..Okay freckles?" Sawyer kissed Kate. She lye in bed, now six months pregnant. The weakness she experienced early on was now worse then before. Most day's she was forced to stay in bed. Kate hated it, and Sawyer hated to see her go through it.

"...Yeah. Hurry back." Kate smiled weakly and took his hand in hers.

Sawyer kissed her again. "I was planin' on it." He smiled as he walked out of the room.

Kate drifted in and out of sleep. The doorbell rang, Kate wasn't sure if she heard it or not. As Juliet gained his trust, Sawyer gave Juliet a key incase of emergency. When the door was not answered, Juliet noticed that Sawyer's truck was vacant from the driveway. Juliet got nervous and began to panic. She had seen Kate earlier that morning, but had to leave because, Kate began to get sick. There was no way Sawyer would take Kate anywhere, something was wrong. Juliet slipped the key out of her pocket and quickly opened the door. "KATE! ITS ME...JULIET...DON'T GET SCARED...IF YOU CAN HEAR ME PLEASE LET ME KNOW."

Kate staggered out of bed and stumbled to the railing. Looking down, she saw Juliet. "I'm right here."

Juliet sprinted up stairs. "Sorry, I got worried when I saw Sawyer was out."

"It's fine." Kate smiled.

Juliet didn't like the idea of Kate walking when she was so weak. Gently, she held onto her shoulders and guided her back to bed. Once Kate was settled, Juliet began to examine Kate. "Every thing seems to be fine, any questions?"

"...um..Yes." Kate took the opportunity of being alone with Juliet to ask a question she didn't want sawyer to hear the answer to. Never since they met, had Kate seen sawyer worry so much. It did feel good though, to have someone who cared.

"Hmm...What's that?" Juliet sat at the edge of Kate's bed.

The survivors of eight fifteen had still kept in contact and most of them, nearly all of them had either visited or talked to Kate over the past months. "...What...What about sun...When we left she was pregnant...Is she...okay?"

Juliet's response was delayed. Nervously, she fingered the blanket on the bed. "...she...she didn't make it..." Juliet's voice was soft and scared.

Kate felt tears in her eyes. She never let herself grow to close with any of the other survivors, but her and Sun had a definite bound.

After crying for a little while, Kate drifted back to sleep and Juliet left. Thirty minutes after Kate returned to her slumber, Sawyer came home.

Several more month's passed. Sawyer's trips became more frequent, Kate worried and wondered why. She decided to confront him. "Sawyer,,,are...are you cheating on me..?" The word's felt foreign in Kate's mouth. Along with Kate's health, her self confidence, and emotions had also been going out of control.

"...No...Why would you think that?" Sawyer was hurt, but he didn't show it. He knew it wasn't Kate talking, it was her emotions.

"...well you've been leaving so much...I was just..." Kate felt bad. She knew Sawyer well enough to know how she had hurt him.

Sawyer sat down and hugged Kate. "Ca'mon theres something I want to show you..." Sawyer lifted Kate in his arms and walked her down the hall. It had been months since Kate was strong enough to manage even a few steps. There was a door at the end of the hall. Thats where they were headed.

"The guest room?" Kate questioned.

Sawyer adjusted his grip on Kate and reached for the door knob. "Not any more." He pushed the door open Inside was a beautiful nursery.

"...oh Sawyer...This is amazing...You did all of this?!" Kate was amazed and in shock. For the first time in months, Kate held a genuine smile on her face.

"Yeah, Freckles and It's all for you." He smiled. Gently, Sawyer placed her down on a chair.

"...Sawyer...This is amazing." Kate was in shock. She always knew Sawyer was a con-man with a heart of gold, but even this impressed her.

"...Look over there..." Sawyer smiled softly and he pointed to two pictures on the wall. One was of Kate and Sawyer holding hands, the other was of Sawyer's hand on Kate's very pregnant stomach, both were in black and white.

Kate was crying. "I love you so much!"
