A/N: Sorry for the long wait. I wasn't allowed on the computer for a few days then yesterday I had family stuff to do. This is complete and utter filler and way to short. It's totally pathetic but it builds up to the next few chapters. I promise the next chapters will be faster and waaaaaaaaay better.

"I am so tired of this." Kate said angrily watching the rain. They had gotten a large part of the caves covered and build a bit of a wall but there was still a thin layer of water on the cave floor, outside it was starting to flood. Some were starting to panic but most were just annoyed.

"Me to." Claire said coming up beside her holding Aaron.

Kate smiled at her a bit. "Can I hold him?" She asked and Claire handed him over. "Hey there little guy." She smiled at him. "He's already growing."

"I know." Claire said. "Problem is we don't have any clothes."

"I'm sure there is someone on the island who can sew." Kate told her making faces at Aaron. As always babies brought out the child in her, as in most people.

"I suppose. It's still an annoyance." Claire smiled at Aaron. "I don't want him growing up here. Or worse, growing up here for a while and then having to leave."

Kate nodded. "I know." She handed Aaron back to Claire. "Hopefully we'll get off soon."

"Hopefully." Claire smiled.

"Claire!" Charlie called. "Could you come here for a minute?"

"I guess I better go." She threw a friendly glance at Kate and left. Kate just stood where she was until the cold air, signaling coming heavier rain drove her to her cave. She wasn't sure how much more of this she could take. She was use to doing things. She had never been able to stay still.

"Boo!" Sawyer yelled making her jump as she was pulled out of her thoughts. He pulled close the fabric they used as a door.

Kate looked at him embarrassed. "Asshole."

Sawyer smirked and set down and kissed her, lingering on her bottom lip. "We could always do what we did last time it rained."

Kate made to push him back but didn't really use any force. "You're a freak." She laughed.

He shrugged pulling out a chocolate bar. "Look what I got."

Kate looked at him. "Chocolate." She said lustfully grabbing at it.

"Want it?" He asked pulling it away from her.

"I can not believe you are playing this game with me!" She sat back arms crossed.

Sawyer laughed and broke off half a piece and then broke it in half again handing it to her and starting to eat his piece. "I don't have much."

"It's fine." She took a bite. "This is divine." She leaned up against him smiling.

Sawyer put an arm around her cautiously. He wasn't use to cuddling. He hadn't cuddled since he was probably 16 in fact.

She looked up at him smiling and kissed him. Then she heard it. Screaming. It was Shannon. They jumped apart and ran out.

Shannon was standing partially in the rain totally drenched screaming her head off. They both saw the source of her fear.

He was standing in the rain totally drenched, looking the same as the last time. More screams were coming from people; Kate was surprised to hear a small one come from her.

But there standing in the rain was Boone.
