"Don't believe her! She is a nutter!" Charlie yelled out..Jack rolled his eyes..He was getting a little tired of Charlie's outburts.."Danielle...How do you know they aren't coming anymore?" Jack asked...Danielle looked at Jack and said, "Years ago..right after they took my Alex..the black smoke just stopped...And I never saw it or the others again...until today...You don't have to believe me...but you should." Danielle than returned back to the jungle..
A sigh of relief filled the camp..This was going to be one night where they could all sleep without being killed, kidnapped, or tortured..Even though everything seemed to be safe, Shannon was still a little worried...Boone's death really made her start thinking about her own life..She did not want to die..She was scared to die..Sayid could tell that Shannon seemed a little nervous.."Shannon, are you ok?" Sayid asked.."I'm just a little shaky...thats all," Shannon replied..."Don't worry,Shannon..I will not let anything happen to you," Sayid said to Shannon...Shannon smiled..."Thanks," she said..Shannon layed down on some rocks next to Sayid and closed her eyes..Sayid kissed her on her forehead and covered her with a blanket..Sayid had no intention of sleeping..He made a promise to look out for Shannon and that is what he would do.
Shannon awoke the next morning with a back ache from the rocks, and to Sayid staring at her.."Good morning," he said as Shannon let out a yawn.."What time did you wake up?" Shannon asked..."I have been up all night," replied Sayid..Shannon's eyes lit up and a big smile emerged on her face.."Sayid! Why did you stay up all night?" she asked..Sayid started to play with Shannon's hair and said, "I told you I would look out for you." Shannon smiled even more..It was rare that Shannon would be smiling that early in the morning, and even more rare that a man would care about her this much..."Sayid..you should sleep..I am fine now," Shannon said sounding concerned.."Shannon, I was a soldier..I don't need to sleep," replied Sayid.."Everyone needs to sleep," Shannon chimed in..."Come on..Just take a little nap."
Sayid smiled..He was starting to realize the effect this beautiful woman was having on him..."Alright...just a small nap," Sayid said without any hesitation...Shannon kissed Sayid and covered him with a blanket...She was starting to realize the effect that this handsome man was having on her.
