HeKate-Trivia: I know! The peanut butter section of that Chapter made me really hungry. lol. But yes, I definitely feel sorry for Jack and Sayid. Sun is defiantly a lot less dramatic then Kate and Shannon, so that gives Jin a break as long as he keeps brining her food. And of course, like you said, Claire's gone through this before. And she's not much of a complainer anyway, so he's definitely got the good end of the deal. And I agree, I can't wait until the babies are born. That might turn into a sequel.
clarkson04: Yay! Another new reader. Glad you liked the story and I hope to hear more from you soon.
Ponyboysgirl1: Of course they're enjoying it! Who wouldn't? I mean come on, how happy would you be if you were having Charlie's baby? lol. I know I would be. : D
Lostlorenzo: Don't feel bad. I've grown very fond of Jin towards the end of last season. I really like him and Sun as a couple. But of course, no one can beat Charlie and Claire. Especially with those adorable peanut butter moments. (Beams) I watched that episode on my dvd like twenty times when I first got it. I'm sad to say I missed desperate house wives. I didn't know the new season had started yet. I'll have to catch myself up. Before I forget, I'm working on another story! Its only gonna be one chapter, but I decided since I just finished chapter five of this story, I might as well take some time off and throw a nice little one out there. I can't say to much about it yet, but I do know this: Sex is involved. So there's something for you to look forward to! Keep your eye out :D
lostelf76: lol. Glad you liked it!
zelazny-gemini: Thank you. And your very welcome :D
Domahilic: lol. Thanks!
Baby Boom
It was another bright day. The girls all sat on the beach, relaxing. "The girls", at this point meaning Claire, Sun, Kate, Shannon, Aaron and for some odd reason, Charlie. "God, I have to pee. Again" Shannon moaned in annoyances, not wanting to get up. "Thanks a lot Shannon. Now I have to pee" Kate grumbled, rising to her feet.
"Sorry" Shannon replied sarcastically, struggling to push herself up. "Well, at least I don't have to walk alone" Kate noted with a shrug. "Yeah, group effort" Shannon agreed playfully. The two girls gave each other a high five andwalked off.
"Claire, I don't know how you can possibly let yourself go through this twice. I can not stop eating" Sun explained, taking a bite out of the apple in her hand.
"I don't know. I think I was made to be pregnant" Claire explained, laying her hand on her stomach. Aaron, who was sitting on her lap, laid both of his hands over hers, feeling around curiously.
"You feel that, Aaron? That's the baby" Claire explained, guiding his little palm in the right direction. "Baby, baby!" Aaron repeated to himself, giggling in amusement. "He's learning to talk so fast" Sun noted, watching in amazement.
"He's a genius...like me" Charlie noted sarcastically as he sat behind Claire, braiding her hair into pigtails out of sheer boredom. The two girls both laughed, as did Aaron.
"Hey!" Charlie frowned, looking offended. "Don't make me beat you with your own hair" He added teasingly, tossing one of Claire's thick braids over her shoulder. Claire just laughed and flipped it back, nearly hitting him in the face.
"Missed me, luv" Charlie noted teasingly. Claire turned around and pushed him hard enough to make him fall back wards. Charlie grabbed her by the waist and pulled her back with him, careful not to get Aaron wounded in the process. The two laid in the sand laughing hysterically as Aaron crawled over their bodies, amused simply because everyone else seemed to be.
"Jesus Christ, can't you too keep your hands off each other for one minute?" Shannon questioned in annoyance as she plopped back onto her towel.
"Lets see...one, two.." Charlie counted sarcastically, holding his hands up as if surrendering. Aaron grabbed hold of a chunk of his hair, witch distracted him momentarily. Charlie pulled Aaron over his shoulder and flipped him onto his back playfully. Aaron whaled in amusement.
"Where's Kate?" Claire questioned curiously, wondering why she hadn't returned with Shannon. "She's talking to Sawyer" Shannon explained, closing her eyes as she laid back on her towel, basking in the sun as usual. "Oh good, maybe she'll kick his ass just like she did with Jack" Charlie noted sarcastically. The girls all laughed.
"Oh, hey. Locke's back with the food" Charlie noted, spotting him as he walked out of the jungle, dragging something with him. The girls all got up quickly, leaving him and Aaron alone with in seconds. Charlie sighed and picked Aaron up, deciding to fallow the heard after all.
Later...
"Hey" Jack greeted, sitting down on a rock near Kate as she juggled her plate on one leg, and Aaron on the other. "Hey" she replied, flashing him a quick smile before turning her attention back to Aaron, who was reaching for the food on her plate. "Charlie and Claire at it again, huh?" He noted with a laugh.
"Yeah, they're at it all right" Kate muttered suggestively, glancing over at their tent. Jack smiled and lowered himself down beside her.
"So, how are you feeling?" He questioned, smiling as if he weren't being the nagging doctor. "I'm good" Kate assured with a nod, tying her hair back before she grabbed her fork, pulling it out of Aaron's reach before he stabbed something with it.
"Here" Jack offered, takeing Aaron into his lap so Kate could eat in peace. Kate smiled appreciatively and dug in. Aaron crawled about impenitently, repeating the word "da" over and over again.
"Not now, Aaron.Your dad isbusy at the moment. Very busy, from the sound of it" Jack noted playfully. "Cut it out, Jack. If Claire finds out your discussing her sex life with her own son she'd have me eliminated" Kate nudged him playfully, though she couldn't help but laugh.
"Well, if she doesn't want people discussing her sex life she should be a little more quiet about it" Jack noted sarcastically, glancing over at their tent once again. Kate shook her head with a laugh, taking a bite off her plate. "But I guess there's nothing wrong with that. at least they're keeping the island populated" Jack continued sarcastically.
"Well, we aremaking a contribution" Kate reminded playfully, laying her hand on his arm. "Thats true" Jack replied with a nod, turning Aaron to face him. Aaron felt around Jack's face curiously, struggling to keep himself standing. "Pretty soon we'll have one of our own" Kate noted happily, admiring how good Jack was with Aaron.
"Eh, ours will be better looking" Jack noted, sarcastically. Kate laughed out loud. "And he'll have your smile, and your freckles" He added, turning to face Kate admiringly. "And your eyes" Kate added, blushing. "Not to mention my heroic quality" Jack added, playfully. Kate laughed again.
"Yeah, or my ability to kick your ass" Kate added in amusement, covering her mouth in order to keep the food from flying back out.
"No, I think Aaron's pretty good at that" Jack assured sarcastically, as Aaron smacked at the side of his face. "No, he's just wondering why your facial hair never grows any longer" Kate noted teasingly.
Jack couldn't help but laugh. Aaron crawled off his lap and back over to Kate, succeeding in garbing a slice of fruit off her plate.
"Go ahead, take it" Kate gave in with a sigh. Aaron obeyed willingly and sat chewing onthe slice of orange, looking around with big blue eyes. She laid her now empty plate aside and stared out over the island, leaning back on her elbows.
"You know, when those two finish-" Kate began, glancing from Charlie and Claire's tent, then back to Jack. "Whenever that is" Jack cut in, sarcastically. Kate smiled. "When they finish, we should go back to the caves" She continued, scooting a little close.
"You know, have some...alone time" She finished, idly running her hand up and down his arm. Jack smiled and leaned back on his elbows, tilting his head to kiss her. "I love you" He muttered softly, once their lips had parted. Kate just smiled, blushing, and kissed him again.
Later...
The inside of their tent was like a sauna. It was a wonder how they were still breathing in the humidity contained inside their little room. Their bodies were dripping, moving together in desperation.
There was a time when they kept it quiet. Little tumbles under the covers, kissing each other on the mouth to silence the moans that escaped. Those days were over.
Now Claire stratled on top of him, bare naked, covers kicked to the floor. Her stringy hair, wet from the sweat, flipping wildly as she moved faster and faster, moaning as loud as she wanted, as if not a single soul in the world could hear them. Right now, only they existed.
They were getting closer. A gasp escaped Charlie's lips as his hands gripped her hips tighter, biting his lip in anticipation until he tasted blood.
Claire threw her head back, her long hair flipping in one quick motion until it dangled far down her back, the curled ends tickling his legs. She let out a few more moans, each one louder then the last, until finally, the climax rushed through them, and she had to grip her hands over his in order to keep herself from floating away.
There was a long pause before Claire could see again. She slid down onto the mattress beside him, her wet skin clinging to the sheets. She laid her hand over Charlie's chest, feeling it rise and fall with his heavy breathing.
He nuzzled her nose for a moment, waiting for the world to stop spinning before he opened his eyes. But once he had managed to slow his breathing to the point where it didn't feel like his heart was about to burst, and the dizzy, fuzzy feeling had faded slightly, his eyes opened, and they were sparkling.
"God, I love you" Claire murmured against his lips, looking deep into his bright blue eyes, witch at the moment seemed to be literally glowing. "Your just saying that so I'll sleep with you again" Charlie muttered in reply, laughing as much as he could without having to breath.
"True" Claire gave in playfully, blushing as she kissed his lips.Charlie lifted his hand to the side of her face, brushing her hair away, feeling the warmth of her cheeks under his palm where she continued to blush.
"You are so beautiful" He noted admiringly, continuing to move strand after strand until her skin was bare. Embarrassed, Claire shifted, burying her head into his arm in order to stop him from giving her the look she couldn't resist. Charlie just smiled and kissed what ever part of her face he could reach.
Mean while...
"Where the hell are they!" Kate questioned, sighing in aggravation. "Well, they're not making any noise, so...they'll be out soon" Jack concluded, keeping optimistic.
"Yeah, right" Kate muttered skeptically, rolling her eyes. "Well, why don't you get one of the other girls to watch him for a little while? I'm sure they won't mind" Jack suggested, persistently.
"I don't want to bother Sun" Kate explained with a shrug. "Well...What about Shannon?" Jack suggested openly, scratching the back of his head. Kate burst out into laughter.
"What?" Jack questioned, unsure what she found so amusing. "Are you kidding? She can't take care of a baby!" Kate confirmed with a laugh.
"In case you haven't noticed, she's pregnant. She's gonna have to learn sooner or later" Jack reminded insistently. Kate thought for a moment, looking at Aaron as he chewed on the last of his orange. "All right" She sighed in agreement, and rose to her feet, taking Aaron with her.
She found Shannon laying on the Beach beside Sayid, her legs across his lap, and her head on a pillow. "Hey" Kate greeted, stopping in front of them with Aaron on her hip. The two looked up at her blankly. "Mind doing me a favor?" Kate questioned, glancing at Aaron, then back at them.
"No" Shannon confirmed, already knowing what Kate was asking. Kate just smiled. "To bad. Its your turn" Kate insisted, kneeling down in the sand.
"I'm not watching him" Shannon confirmed, crawling forward to stop her. Kate ignored her and sat Aaron down on the blanket the two of them had been sitting on before pushing herself back to her feet.
"Kate, stop. He hates me, ok? I can't watch him" Shannon insisted, looking up at her pleadingly. Kate smiled and shrugged before walking away. Shannon sighed in defeat and turned her head to look at Aaron, who stared at her blankly for a moment. "Da?" He murmured softly, not knowing what else to say.
"Shut up" Shannon muttered in reply, giving him an annoyed look. Aaron's big eyes began to fill with tears.
"Oh, no, I was just kidding!" She assured quickly, gathering him into her arms. It was to late. Aaron whaled loudly, balling his little eyes out. "Shit" Shannon muttered in annoyance, rocking him in her arms desperately.
Sayid couldn't help but laugh as he watched Shannon panic over the crying child. "You could help me, you know" She noted in aggravation, shooting him a look over her shoulder. "I could" Sayid noted simply, smiling playfully. Shannon rolled her eyes and continued to rock Aaron.
"Could you at least tell me what to do?" She questioned, desperately. Sayid thought for a moment. "Just try talking to him" He suggested, not wanting to help her to much. This was something she needed to learn on her own.
"Could you please stop crying, Aaron? I'm sorry I yelled at you. I just, I don't know what I'm doing, ok?" Shannon sighed, doing her best to talk to the child. Aaron continued to cry. Shannon sighed again and gave Sayid a look over her shoulder.
"Its not working" She noted bluntly. Sayid shook his head. This was hopeless. "Try singing to him" He suggested optimistically.
"I'm not going to sing to him" Shannon confirmed in annoyance. "It works when Charlie dose it" Sayid noted with a shrug. "Yeah, but Charlie's got a hot accent-" Shannon contradicted bluntly, before thinking. "
Excuse me?" Sayid questioned, looking a little offended. "You have a hot accent, too" She confirmed, reassuringly. "Oh...thank you" Sayid grinned appreciatively, allowing the complement to settle in.
"Your welcome. Now...what should I sing?" She questioned, looking down at the crying baby with determination. "Claire sings catch a falling star, you could try that" He suggested with a shrug. "I don't know the words" Shannon explained with a sigh.
"Well, what do you know?" He asked, curiously. Shannon thought for a moment. She took a deep breath and let it out slowly, giving Sayid another agitated look before looking down at Aaron, who continued to cry at the top of his little baby lungs, witch were surprisingly loud for their size.
"You just walk in, I make you smile, its cool but you don't even know me," She began, murmuring softly, feeling extremely embarrassed. Sayid tried not to smile, but just couldn't help it.
"You take an inch, I run a mile, can't win you're always right behind me" She continued, her voice getting a little louder.Aaron seemed to be quieting down a little, though he was still fussing. "Keep going" Sayid insisted encouragingly. Shannon sighed and continued.
"And we know that you could go and find some other, take or leave it or just don't even bother" She went on, blushing terribly.
"Caught in a craze, it's just a phase, or will this be around forever?" She giggled nervously, passing glances over her shoulder at Sayid, who smiled encouragingly, giving her the strength to continue.
" Don't you know it's going too fast, racing so hard you know it won't last! Don't you know? What can't you see? Slow it down, read the sign, so you know just where you are going"
By now, Aaron had settled down to a minimum of little fusses hereand there. The plan was working. But at this point, Shannon didn't even notice rather he was crying or not. She was having to much fun. And the fact that Sayid was laughing hysterically didn't stop her at all.
"Stop right now, thank you very much, I need somebody with the human touch. Hey you, always on the run, gotta slow down baby, got have some fun"
Sayid almost fell over laughing, and Aaron was giggling in amusement himself. Even Shannon laughed every couple of words, wondering how she remembered them so clearly after all these years. Either way, Aaron seemed to be enjoying it, and so was she. And that's all that really mattered.
"See? I knew you could do it" Sayid confirmed proudly, scooting close beside her. "Who would have thought the Spice gGrls would ever help me in life" Shannon noted with a laugh. Sayid laughed as well. Aaron's little eyes fell shut, exhausted from his little fit.
"But the point is, it worked. Your going to be a great mom" Sayid noted, reassuringly. Shannon blushed. "You think?" She questioned, doubting herself slightly. "I know" Sayid confirmed, giving her an admiring smile before closing his eyes and tilting his head to kiss her.
