A scream errupted from Shannon as Jack entered Sayid's and Shannon's tent. Sayid sat beside her as she held is hand. Her eyes looked up at Jack and in them was pain, like he had seen in Kate's when she had given birth.

"Her water has already broke. I thought you weren't coming," Sayid said as Jack knelt.

"I was busy," Jack muttered, distracted.

"Busy! With what? Charlie couldn't find you!" Shannon yelled.

"I had to say goodbye to Kate," Jack replied.

"Well, she's not going any where, so deliver my baby!" Shannon said, panting.

"Just push! I already lost two people today and I don't want to loose any more, so just calm down!" Jack yelled at Shannon, who's face went red with anger.

"Who?" Sayid spoke up before Shannon could retalliate.

"Michael and Kate," Jack said quietly.

Shannon's face paled. "I'm...sorry."

"You have to push," Jack said.

Shannon sighed and Sayid just held her hand. After a while of pushing, screaming and cursing from Shannon, a newborn baby screamed. Jack cleaned the baby off and handed it to Sayid. Jack excused himself and headed outside to find Sun, who still had Nikki.

"He's beautiful," Shannon said, looking down at the little boy.

"What's his name?" Sayid asked.

Shannon thought about it. "Boone."

"You really want to name him after your brother."

She nodded. "Yeah. I'm naming our kid after him so I actually don't look like a total bitch."

"You're not," Sayid said.

"Yes. I am. Days after Boone had died, I avoided you. You know why. See, I was a bitch."

Sayid sighed. "Well, at least this is over with."

Shannon nodded and Sayid leaned in and kissed her.


Claire sat in the sand as Ty stood up and took a few shaky steps and then fell down. He started to crawl. Claire watched the little boy crawl on the sand and then sit there and play with it. She was watching Ty when Charlie came up behind her and put his arms around her.

"Hello, Claire," Charlie said with a smile as he kissed her.

"Hi, Charlie."

"How are you and our children today?"

Claire giggled. "Charlie, the new baby's barely developed yet."

"Still our child all the same."

"Fine. We're all fine."

"Turnip head seems good."

"Ty, Charlie. You know his name is Ty."

"Can't the kid have a nickname?"

"Yes, but not that."

"It suits him well."

"I don't want him to grow up being called Turnip Head!"

"Oh, come on, Claire! I'll just call him that."

"Yes, but what if he goes to school some day and a kid comes up and asks if he has a nickname? He can't say that he was called Turnip Head."

"His head was shaped like one. He bloody well deserves that name."

"Charlie! I know what's best for Ty!"

"I'll just find a new nickname for the boy, then."

"Nothing with the shape of his head or food."

"Ok, ok," Charlie muttered.

Claire sighed. "I'm sorry that I yelled."

He shook his head. "No. You had the right to tell me that."

She smiled at him and leaned into kiss him. She didn't get very far as Ty started to pull her shirt.

"What is it, Ty?" she asked, looking at the baby.

"Mum! Mum!" he shouted. His chubby little finger pointed out towards the ocean.

Charlie's and Claire'seyes followed the baby's finger. Claire let out a gasp and her eyes were planted there.

"Bloody..." Charlie started but the end of his sentence was lost as he jumped up to get someone.

"Where are you going?" Claire asked.

"To get Jack. We're finally getting off!" Charlie shouted and her ran up the beach and shouted for Jack.

Claire smiled at her baby. Soon, Ty would actually be in regular clothing and he would be clean. She grabbed Ty and held him as her eyes were planted on the ship that was coming close to the shore.


A/N: Sorry that this is a shorter chapter. I thought a good place to cut it off. I just had to add something about the whole Turnip Head thing. Next chapter will probably be longer.
