Chapter 2
Jack still cradled Kate in his arms, the guilt, the agony, the pain of his breaking heart was to much to bare.
''Im so sorry Kate, I'm sorry for everything''he said sorrowfully as he whispered into her ear and kissed her ever so gently on her forehead.
He pulled her closer and closer to his body. ''Just dont leave me ,you mean everything to me, i'll die without you Kate...
I love you... I love you more than anything in this world, Just please dont leave me''
Jack felt movement in his arms , but thought he had only imagined it, all he wanted was Kate , all he wanted was to see her smile, see her laugh.
He felt it again, his heart stopped...
''Kate!''... His voice lifted...
Sun, Sawyer and Sayid noticed the lightning of his voice...they all held their breaths in anticipation.
Kate stirred in Jacks arms... her eyes fluttered slighlty open...
''Kate! come on baby, thats it come on, open your eyes, stay with me now...please...''
Kate's eyes opened slightly more, she whined from the pain of the gash on her back, that was still bleeding
Sun , Sawyer and Sayid ran over in complete awe at the fact that she was still alive, even though she had been out here for over 12hours.
''Thats it Kate, come on know , wake up jack said shaking her slightly, he longed to gaze into her beautiful green eyes... ''bring me that water''
Kate looked straight into Jacks eyes...in weak voice she managed to get out the words ''Hay you''
Jack laughed in hapiness, just like he did when he brought Charlie back to life.
''Hay kate'' he replyed with tears still running down his face and he held her tightly to his body again, in that moment it was only him and Kate.
Kate gave him a quick smile... but her eyes were starting to close again...
''No kate dont, not again, please stay with me'' he shouted worriedly
It was no use , she was too weak to stay awake. ''She needs food and antibiotics'' he cryed as the tears ran down his face.
Jack put his cheek in front of her mouth to make sure she was still breathing...
He picked her up gently and ran passed Sun , Sawyer and Sayid .
''What are you doin! '' Sun shouts angerly as he runs passed her.
''Im talking her to the hatch! what does it look like im doing!
''Im going to fix you Kate, dont you worry, Im here now, i'm here for you and I always will be...''
Jack ran as fast as he could through the jungle, still embracing Kate tightly, keeping her safe.
As he held her, he couldnt help but notice how thin she was , she has obviously not ben taking care of herself, it was all his fault.
This thought made Jack break down into tears .
He finally reached the hatch , he was so tired, so worn from the amount of stress he had gone through in the last half hour, but he still had to fix Kate, he wasnt going to let her die.
He placed her on the bed. '' its ok Kate, your home now, youe safe, im here for you'' Jack said lovingley to her while he stroked the side of her face.
He was soon joined by Sun and Sawyer, Sayid was filling Locke in on what had happened to her.
''Sun get me my leather bagpack, quickly,... Sawyer I want all the meds, dont give me any excuses just get them for me now!
Sawyer didnt waste anytime, he didnt argue, he just went.Jack wast taken back bt this, but then remembered what Sawyer had said when he got shot.
Sun came back into the room with the bag, Jack was still stroking Kate's face as if she was the most precious thing int he world, to Jack she was, even though he couldn't say it to her, but he was gong to make sure that if she pulled out of this he would tell her everything.
''Sun give me the pain kilers in the white container, there strong they will help ease her pain''
''But Jack, you dont even know how Katw will react to them!''
''They helped Locke, he was fine after I gave them to him''
''Yes, but Kate is not Locke, Jack, could you not do a test to see if she is allergick to them?''
''Does it look like I have time!'' shouting at her ''I have to fix her, i have to make her better...''
''Jack, your not thinking rationally, your letting your feelings get in the way of her treatment!''
''JUST GIVE ME THE PILLS!...now! ''
He held Kate up , and whispered in her ear, ''Hay Kate your gona take some pills for me, they will make you feel better ok''he said gently while stroking her hair.
He popped the pills in her mouth and gave her some water''Kate you have to swallow them ok''
she couldnt she was still too weak
''Come on now Kate swallow them for me please , I need you to be ok...Kate please... all you have to do is swallow them'' he whispered to her in desperation and fear
She finally did, it felt like a hugh weight had been taken off his shoulders, but Kate was still unconsious.
Jack held her wrist and took her pulse, it was weak, her breathing was also quiet weak.
''Will she be ok now that you have given her the pain killers?asked Sun still concerned and shaken from the incident.
Jack paused for a while''...I...I dont know.. she is still so weak...her eh.. her body.. mightent be able to recover'' he said trying to hold back his tears .
He was normally so strong when it came to these situations... but with Kate it was different, she ment everything to him, the prospect of loosing her was too much to bare and he couldn't keep it together.
Sun saw this and tryed to comfort him ''Jack you have to be strong , for Kates sake''
He nodded at this, he had to be, if he couldnt be strong how was he ment to fix her.
Jack got slightly angy at himself, he hated the way Kate made him feel, he hated the way she could bring him to his knees with just a smile or a glance.
Sawyer returned with all the meds '' where do you wan'um Doc''
''Just put them on the table''
''How is she?'' tying to hide the concern in his voice, he didnt like people knowing that there was a good human being in him that actually cared and loved someone.
''She is... ok...''he says in a sigh
Everyone was quiet in the hatch, their silence only to be breoken by the alarm going off, which was quickly sorted out by Locke.
Sun had gone back to the beach and Sawyer was resting on the couch, Jack hasnt left her side , he didnt plan to, but he badly had to use the bathroom.
'Sawyer, hay Sawyer!''
''Whats up Doc?''
''Watch Kate for a moment while I go to the bathroom''
''well all righty''
''If anything happens, anything, even if she moves her arm, call me...ok..''
''You got it Doc''
A few minutes after Jack walked out of the room she started to twich, it was like she missed his presance, like she knew he wasnt there
''Hay freckles, are you waking up?'' he said happily
But she kept on twiching, they were starting t get more violent now.
'' JACK , JACK, JACK'' sawyer shouted
it didnt take Jack long to react to Sawyers shouting and he was back in the room ina matter of second.
''OH SHIT!...she is having a seizure, she must be having a reaction to the meds.''
''What!''
''Shit, shit ,shit, dont do this Kate, you can pull out of it, come on now, god damn it,
''turn her on her side and find me something to put in her mouth so she doesnt swallow her toung''.He shouts at Sawyer
The seizures were getting worse, Jack was trying everything he could to get her to stop
''Kate please stop! Please!...your body wont be able to take the strain...please stop,im not letting you go this time!
she stops seizing...
''Oh thank God'' Sawyer yells in relife.
Jack pausees...''NO Kate ...No!''
''Whats wrong Doc,shes gona be ok right , she's stpped seizing'' Sawyer says innocently..
''No Kate! Dont!...she's stopped breathing!...''
