Charlie and Claire entered the caves, to see Adam sleeping in Jack's arms. Jack and Kate were also asleep, which made Charlie and Claire smile. Jack was sitting with his back against the cave wall, and Kate was sitting next to him with her head on his shoulder.

"Should we wake them?" Claire whispered to Charlie.

"No… they look comfortable." He said smiling.

"I suppose you're right." She said lifting Adam from Jack's arms, trying not to wake him. Jack's eyes fluttered open.

"Claire…" He said squinting from the sunlight.

"Sorry, I came to get Adam." She said giving the baby a kiss on the forehead.

"Oh… I must have dozed off."

"You and Kate both." Charlie said smiling down at him. Jack felt Kate lift her head off his shoulder.

"Jack…" She said sleepily.

"It's alright, go back to sleep if you want." He said gently. She closed her eyes and placed her head back on his shoulder.

"We'll let you two get back to sleeping." Claire said grinning.

"Bye…" He said closing his eyes and leaning his head on Kate's.

"See ya." Charlie said putting his arm around Claire's waist as they walked to their section in the caves.

"They looked so cute." Claire said smiling.

"You're cuter." Charlie said kissing her cheek. She giggled.

"When I sleep?" Claire teased.

"Yes."

"How often do you watch me sleep?"

"Every night."

"Every night?" Claire asked laughing. "That's creepy." She teased.

"It's not creepy…" He said crossing his arms, acting offended.

"Oh… and why is that?"

"Because I am just making sure you're safe."

"Every second of the night?"

"Well, I eventually go to sleep after watching you for so long."

"I love you." She said kissing his lips softly.

"I know." He said with a smirk. "Are we ready to get some sleep?"

"You mean am I ready to sleep, so you can watch me?" She asked teasing him.

"Precisely." He said kissing her cheek.

"If I go to sleep… you have to go to sleep."

"Luv…"

"Please?"

"Alright…"

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." He said sitting with his back against the cave wall. Claire placed Adam in his arms and sat next to him. Charlie put his free arm around her shoulder and pulled her close to him. She placed her head on his chest and closed her eyes. Charlie also closed his eyes and placed a kiss on Claire's forehead.

"Goodnight luv."

"Goodnight Charlie." She said as both of them drifted off to sleep.

Charlie and Claire awoke the next morning to see Adam was still asleep in Charlie's arms.

"Jack and Kate must have really worn him out." Charlie said with a laugh. Claire laughed too.

"Yeah, he's never slept this long."

"They probably made out in front of him."

"Charlie!" She said playfully hitting his arm.

"Hey, it's possible."

"What's possible?" Jack asked walking up to them.

"Nothing." Claire said rolling her eyes.

"Okay…" He said giving Claire a curious look.

"Where's Kate?" Charlie asked changing the subject.

"Getting water."

"Oh… you know, you and Kate looked really comfortable together last night." Claire said smiling.

"We were tired."

"But do you want a relationship with her?" Claire asked curiously.

"Hey guys." Kate said walking over to them.

"Hey." Jack said with a relieved look.

"What were you talking about?" Kate asked smiling.

"Oh nothing…" Charlie said with a devious smile.

"Okay." She said looking at Jack.

"It's nothing… really." Jack said shrugging his shoulders.

"Alright." Kate said looking at Adam in Claire's arms. The baby opened his eyes and looked up at Claire. "He's awake." Kate said smiling. Claire looked down at Adam, who was still looking up at her.

"Hi honey." Claire said kissing his tiny hand.

"Hi Adam." Charlie said leaning down and kissing his cheek.

"He's such a good baby." Kate said smiling.

"Yeah… I'm very lucky." Claire said smiling back at her.

"And so am I." Charlie said kissing Claire's forehead. She giggled. Charlie looked across the cave to see a group of people had gathered together. "Jack look over there." He said pointing out the group to him.

"I wonder what's going on." Jack said standing up.

"I don't know, but it looks like a big deal." Charlie said looking at Jack.

"Stay here." Jack said to Kate and Claire.

"No, I'm coming too." Kate said looking up at him.

"Kate, can you help me with Adam?" Claire said trying to avoid an argument. "He gets fussy and I might need an extra pair of hands."

"Alright." Kate said faking a smile. "You two boys be careful." She said with a slight laugh.

"We will." Charlie said smiling.

"Let's go." Jack said beginning to walk to the group of people.

"Bye luv." Charlie said kissing Claire's cheek.

"Be careful."

"I will." Charlie said walking next to Jack. They walked over and saw Hurley standing there asking for Jack.

"I'm right here." He said walking over to him.

"Dude… You're never going to believe this…"
