Chapter 10

-What do you think happened?

-I have no idea. But something tells me that they're lying to us.

-Kate wouldn't lie to me.

-Neither would Jack. But this is love we're talking about. Nothing is the way it's supposed to be.

-Still if something happened Kate would at least show some signs. Now she acts completely normal and THAT is not normal.

-That's the problem. They both act like nothing has happened the last few days.

Shannon and Claire were sitting together in Mr. Artz's class. They had asked from their partners, Claire from Jack and Shannon from Kate, if they could sit together cause they had some girly talk about make up. Of course it was a lie but it was the only way for them not to realize that Shannon and Claire were hiding something from them. So here they were now, sliping notes and expressing how worried they were about the current situation between Jack and Kate.

-What bugs me the most is the fact that they seem so happy and cheerful that I wanna throw up. They have to be pretending or else I'm a zombie.

-They are so pretending. But the question is what they did to result in their strange behaviour. I just can't figure them out.

-What did Jack tell you about the meeting with Kate?

-He said that nothing happened. She went there, showed him the book, realized it wasn't his and she was gone. But something's not right.

-I know. And I'll tell you why, my dearest Claire. If they weren't hiding something from us then Kate would have killed me. You see she must have realized that the book I gave her was mine when she ckecked it in Jack's place. And hell would freeze before Kate left me off the hook. She would definitely get mad at me for trying to fix her up with Jack and probably wouldn't talk to me for at least a week. I know because it has happened before and it was not good.

-So what did she tell you?

-Exactly what Jack told you.

-Damn it. We'll have to ask Sayid too.

-Can I do that?

-No it's okay. I'll do it.

-No no I will.

-Shan?

-Okay I like him.

-But I thought you were going out with that Ben guy…

-I was but… Sayid is… I don't know how to put it in words…

-Hot?

YES!!!

It was lunch time at Raven highschoole wich usually was Kate's worst time of the day. She hated having to eat in front of all the other students, having mock her even for the way she chewed her food. She didn't take it personal anymore cause she had realized that she wasn't the only one getting critisized. Apparently it was the latest fashion in high-schools.

But today was different. Today she had a reason to look forward the lunch time and that reason was Jack. Yesterday, after their second in a row encounter Jack and Kate had decided that they wouldn't do anything about their situation. They would keep being friends but with some sort of… benefits. Kate had heard this term "friends with benefits" before but didn't really understand the meaning of it.

So far she liked it though. It seemed like they were just like before but better. They talked and laughed but also teased each other causing both of them to blush more than normal. They hadn't talked about their latest encounters but anyone could see the longing and want in each others eyes. But they were too blind to realize it themselves.

They had also agreed that they wouldn't tell anything to either Claire or Shannon. They wanted to clear this thing out first and then announce it to their friends. But they were sure that their current behaviour towards each other was not going to help them keep it a secret. However they didn't seem to care, as long as they had time for themselves.

Claire, Shannon, Boone, Charlie, Sayid, Jack and Kate were sitting at the same table. Claire and Shannon were sitting close whispering to each other's ears and stealing glances from Jack and Kate. They, on the other hand, were completely oblivious of this. They were eating slowly their food but still took a glimpse of each other and smile. Kate was constantly blushing and Jack was grinning like an idiot. These signs were hard to miss by Claire and Shannon, even though they decided not to express their suspicions.

Sayid was lost in his world or better in his Shannon world. He was staring at her with a dreaming look on his face that did not go unnotice by Charlie and Boone who both laughed at their friend's obvious crush.

Suddenly Jack stood up and announced he was going to the bathroom. He turned to leave but not before he cast Kate a meaningful glance, communicating with her through silence. Kate seemed to have gotten the signal cause after a while of his absence she claimed too that she wanted to go to the bathroom. No one payed attention to her except for Claire and Shannon who watched her suspiciously move towards the ladies' room.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Claire asked Shannon still looking at the place where Kate had gone.

"Totally" Shannon replied.

Meanwhile…

Jack was waiting impatiently for her to show up. What if she didn't get the signal? What if she didn't want to come? What if she decided that this whole friendship wih benefits couldn't work out for her?

But all his fears were vanished as soon as he saw her approaching the bathroom. She looked a little uncertain and seemed to be looking for him. Surprising her, he grabbed her arm, and pushed her against the wall, in a dark corner where it was very unlikly they would be seen.

"Jack" she gasped but didn't have time to continue as a certain Jack Sheppard's lips were upon hers immediately. She didn't complain though.

Pushing against her, he wrapped his arms around her, deepening their kiss. Once he made certain she wasn't going to object he pushed his tongue inside her mouth sighing in pleasure, as it was what he was longing to do since he saw her walk through the school gates.

She responded eagerly to the kiss, caressing his tongue with her own, moaning and whimpering at the extreme pleasure she was feeling. She tightened her hold on him, wrapping her arms around his neck bringing him even closer. It seemed like she couldn't get enough of him.

With his mouth still on hers he decided to go a little further. His hands started traveling up and down her back causing the hair at the back of her neck to stir. Taking her moans of satifaction as a good sign he continued with his investigation. Having explored and touched all of her back he went to the front first touching her stomach and then going upwards. Finally reaching her breasts and waiting to be slapped across the face for taking too far, he was surprised to feel Kate arch her back to him and moan loudly against his mouth.

Needing no more encouragement he began folding and kneeding her breasts realizing that she was so intoxicating he would find it really hard to stop. He continued this for a while until he decided he wanted more. So he pushed his hands inside her shirt making her gasp but in pleasure nontheless. Going up to her breasts once again he could litelaly feel her hot skin under his palm.

Finally realizing that if he didn't stop he would take her right there against the wall, he reluctanly tore his mouth from hers and withdrew his hands from under her shirt. Smiling at the sound of diaspproval she made he kissed her again but sweetly and slowly this time trying in vain to control his sudden passion and want for her. In other words his errection.

He rested his forehead against her own and looked deeply into her eyes. They were both breathing fast and growing even hotter by the minute.

"Kate" he panted dropping his head against the wall trying desperately to control himself and catch his breath.

"Jack" she said a little sarcastically, smiling and rubbing his back driving him crazy.

"What are you doing to me?" he whispered not really asking her but expressing in a way his feelings and longing for her.

She just giggled at him and put her mouth on his ear kissing and licking it. He moaned and tried to pull himself away from her but she just grabbed him harder and went to nibble his neck making all his logic thoughts vanish. She continued the softly teasing for a while untill she grew bolder and slipped her hands underneath his shirt feeling him gasp and shudder at her touch.

'Where the hell did she learn such things?' he thought as he tried once again to pull her away from him in fear of letting things get too far and eventually getting caught. He didn't care about his reputation and all that crap but he knew that Kate wouldn't be too fond of getting caught while being ravished by a certain Jack Sheppard. Besides he couldn't go that far with her without knowing that they were in an actual relationship and not just some friendship with benefits.

When he came up with that solution, the friendship with benefits, it appeared to him as the only way to stay close to Kate. Because telling her how he really felt would definitely scare her and drive her away. And that was something he wouldn't be able to stand.

Also, they couldn't stay just friends after their latest encounters. It would be too akward. So this was what appealed to him better. He wasn't quite satisfied by their current situation but it was the best he could get. At least that's what he thought.

As for the sex thing, he was sure as hell he wouldn't go that far. He guessed that she had lost her virginity with Tom but he hadn't asked her. It was way too painful to even think about it, let alone hear her saying it to him.

But even if she did have experience he didn't want their first time to be like this. Friends but not friends. It didn't seem right. He wanted to make for her all that romantic stuff people do when they're in love but in this case he thought he was the only one in love. So he backed off.

"Kate" he said in a firm whisper wanting her to realize the importance of the situation.

"What's wrong?" she asked getting scared immediately of being rejected.

"We've got to stop cause I won't be able to hold back any longer" he said in a pleading tone.

"But I don't want you to hold back" she said smiling in a tiny voice.

"Kate look where we are" he said

Finally she seemed to realize the place they were, which was too dangerous for them to act like that.

"Oh" she said, blushing furiously and trying to fix her shirt that had been slightly discarded.

He smiled at her uneasiness, finding her cute and adorable at the same time.

He put his hand on her cheek and made her look at him.

"Hey. Don't worry. No one saw us" he said still smiling.

She looked deep in thought for a minute and then looked at him sincerely.

"Jack what is going on with us?" she asked him.

"I don't know Kate" he sighed and withdrew his hand from her cheek. The only think I know is that I love you, he thought but didn't dare to say it out loud.

They looked at each other for a while till Kate decided to talk.

"We should probably head back" she said reluctanly. "They must be looking for us"

"Yeah" he said without moving.

They kept staring at each other with uncertainty when Jack spoke.

"Do you…?" he cleared his throat nervously "Do you want to come to my place after school?" he asked anxiously.

She started to argue with him, after everything that had happened with his mom and everything but he beat her to it.

"My mom will be gone till late at night and dad probably won't come at all" he said quickly so as to vanish all of her worries.

"Okay" she smiled.

Both, grinning like idiots they made their way back to their table. They were too happy and lost in their worlds to see Claire and Shannon standing just behind the corner and looking at them shocked.

Once Jack and Kate went to the bathroom together they realized that something was not right. So they went to investigate. But they hadn't been prepared to see what they did when they reached the bathrooms. At first they couldn't see anyone but then they heard soft moans and whimpers. So they followed the sounds and they couldn't believe what they had seen.

After the first shock they just sat quietly in their positions waiting for them to leave. Once the place was clear Shannon yelled

OH.MY.GOD!!!
