Chapter 6
Jack sighed, turned, picked up the woman and took her to the medical tent.
Claire got up and brushed the dirt from her knees. She went to Sun and took Aaron from her.
'Thanks for looking after him. I'll take him now.'
'No Problem.' Sun replied, smiling.
The crowd started to slowly dissolve, everyone returning to their tents and some to the beach.
Claire took Aaron back to his crib. Charlie followed her.
'So, you remember!' Charlie said, smiling a goofy smile. 'Remember anything else,'
Charlie rubbed the back of his neck, 'after the crash?'
'No, sorry, Charlie. Would love to though.' Claire put Aaron in his crib and turned to
Charlie.
'You know...it's weird, why I only remember you, peanut butter and her.'
Charlie just shrugged and picked up his guitar.
'Maybe, those are all the great things. I only remember what I want to.' Claire said.
Charlie, who started playing on his guitar, stopped and looked up at Claire.
'So, I was actually something good?' Charlie said
'Yea, I think so.' Claire smiled at Charlie. Charlie returned it.
'Thanks for always being there for me, Charlie.'
'It's a pleasure, love.'
Charlie continued playing his guitar, while Claire sat looking at him. On this island, he and Aaron were the best things that ever happened to her. She couldn't imagine a life without one of them.
Jack took the injured woman immediately to the medical tent, with John Locke following.
'Who is this woman, Jack?'
'Well, if I knew, Locke, that would've really been helpful, now wouldn't it?'
Jack responded, lying the woman down and taking hydrogen peroxide to clean her wound. He dabbed it carefully and stitched it up. Locke left the tent, and went back to the beach.
After making sure everything's fine, Jack left the tent, joining Sayid and Kate, who now returned from the hatch, at the fire.
'So, you don't know anything about her?'
'No.' Sayid replied to Kate's question, looking at the fire. Jack went and sat next to Kate.
'Hey.' He said.
'Hi.' Kate greeted back, before looking at him with a serious expression.
'What's up with this woman? You don't even know if it's a trap. And Claire said…'
But Jack interrupted her. 'Yea, Claire said, but her memory is still a bit shook up. We don't know if it's the truth.'
'Well, Claire won't lie.' Kate said.
Sayid excused himself, seeing that he's not needed in this conversation and went to Shannon.
'Goodnight.' Kate said.
'So, how was the hatch duty?' Jack asked.
'Lonely. Well, Hurley was there, but something was missing.' She said smiling at Jack.
Jack smiled back at her.
Suddenly there was a scream from the medical tent.
