Enjoy!

Kate gave herself up to Jack. She didn't resist. It was what she wanted after all.

Finally, they tore apart, but they still rested their foreheads against each other. Kate had closed her eyes. She felt dizzy, as if she had just had an adrenalin rush. I did just have an adrenalin rush.

Jack still held her cheek in his right hand. He caressed it with his thumb as he stared at her. She looks gorgeous like that. Peaceful. He pulled her gently so that she could lean against him. She placed her head on his shoulder has her left arm went up against his chest. He rested his chin once again on her head.

'Hey?' he whispered.

'Shush' was the response he got. Kate hadn't opened her eyes yet. Jack smiled. What she thinking?

'Don't make a sound.' She finally added. 'I want to remember this forever.'

Jack laughed at the naivety in Kate's voice. It was almost childish. But it makes me love her even more he thought.

Kate eventually opened her eyes. 'So…' she trailed off.

'Hm. Exactly what I was thinking.'

Kate giggled. She looked up at Jack and kissed him again. A short sweet kiss that seemed to linger on their lips for a while. Wow. I love being able to do that. Kate sat up and looked once again at the horizon.

'Wow. When did dusk happen?' she asked.

'Right about after we kissed.' A murmur came.

Kate looked beside her. Jack was lying in the sand. This time he had his eyes closed. A smile was spread across his face. He loos so much better now that he's mine. As soon as the thought crossed her mind, Kate blushed. At least Jack couldn't see her. She giggled.

'What's so funny?' Jack asked. He hadn't opened his eyes, but he could hear her laugh. Her beautiful, sexy laugh.

Kate lied on her elbow next to Jack. 'Nothing.' She whispered. She started to play with his hair, stroking his forehead. Jack's arm slid around her waist and he pulled her onto him. She laughed once more, but stopped when he opened his eyes.

His eyes seemed to draw her in. She could have been lost in them forever. Jack lifted his other hand and started to stroke her hair away from her forehead. He gave her a side grin and finally broke the silence by saying something that Kate was dreading to hear:

'I think that we should get back to the caves. And the beach.' He added quickly after remembering that Kate had still not moved to the caves.

'Hmmm.' She replied, in an angry sort of way. 'Don't wanna.' She was now lying onto of Jack with her head on his chest.

'Me neither. But you know we have to. They can't cope if we didn't – '

'If you didn't,' Kate interjected.

Jack laughed. 'If we didn't get back. Plus they'll probably send out a search party.'

'I hate it when your right. You always are!' Kate started to get up. She dusted the sand off of her jeans and her top. She turned around to see Jack staring at her. 'What?' she smiled.

'Nothing. C'mon, let's get going. We ought to get back before it gets dark.'

With this, Kate walked past Jack and into the jungle. Jack looked after her for a moment before he started into the jungle too. After a minute or two, Jack thought he should break the silence.

'I'm going to the hatch. You can head back to the caves if you want.'

Kate whipped her head round at the sound of his voice. She hadn't stopped waking, neither had Jack. 'To the hatch? How come?'

'Just. I gotta check up on Sawyer, and make sure that the place is 'k.' he added after realising that Kate wouldn't take 'just' as an answer. She doesn't need me keeping minor secrets from her now

'I'll come with.'

'Nah. You can head back.'

Kate had turned around again to face Jack. 'Why? Don't you want to be seen with me?' she said in a childish voice with a fake sad look. I haven't spoken like that in ages. Ever since… Tom.

Jack chuckled. 'How could you ever say that? Fine, come then. I didn't know you would want to come so badly.'

'You're not the only one on this island who cares about Sawyer, you know.' As soon as she had said it, she knew it was a mistake. It sounded much better in my head! She didn't look back at Jack this time; she couldn't bear to see the look on his face.

Suddenly a thought came to her. 'I left him with that Ana girl.'

'Her name's Ana Lucia.' Now it was Kate's turn to be jealous, and angry.

'I wonder if that was such a good idea. They've probably killed each by now.' Jack added at the end. When he had found Kate earlier that day, she was saying how she wasn't perfect enough for him. He didn't want to hurt her. But she is. More than perfect. Was it only this morning that we kissed for the first time?

'There's something about her…' Kate scrunched up her nose. 'I dunno. Sawyer had said something about her.'

'What did he say?' Jack asked, hoping that his voice was calm as he hoped it was. The last thing that he wanted was Kate finding out that he knew something about Ana Lucia that she didn't.

'I dunno. It was about being hostage. I think it's about, you know, what he said before. Getting hit by her.' A smile had crept upon her face. 'I wish I was there to see that.'

Jack was now walking alongside Kate. It looked as if she had given up on the whole 'Ana Lucia's hiding something' thing. Jack let out a breath he didn't know he was keeping. He would have to tell her. The next time she says something about her. I'll tell her, he promised himself.

Jack could now see the hatch door. He pulled Kate by her forearm and took her a bit into the jungle.

'What are we going to do?' he asked in a hushed whisper, even thought he knew that no one was nearby or be able to hear him even if they were near.

'Well, I thought that we were going to go into the hatch so that you could check up on Sawyer. And to make sure the place was OK.' She replied, also whispering because that was what Jack had done.

He laughed. It was easy to laugh with Kate around. She was grinning too. 'I meant about… us.'

'Oh. I dunno. I guess we could keep it a secret, but then we would have to sneak around to see each other. And with you being the only doctor only this island…' she trailed off.

Jack was shaking his head. Kate leant back against a big tree trunk. 'I don't wanna sneak around. It's too hard. And we'll never get any time together. Or to do this.' He added as he leant in to kiss Kate. He put one arm above her head, resting against the tree, to get balance, and the other around her waist. She had one arm around his neck and the other one the side of his face.

As they broke away, Jack kept his arms as they were and once again rested his forehead against hers. Kate kept her hands as they were.

'I don't wanna do that either. Sneaking around I mean.' She was looking into Jack's eyes again, and she felt her whole body give in to him right then forever. She had forgotten where she was, what they were talking about even. So much that she had to tear her eyes away to stop her from falling forever. She set her gaze to the sky above, or what was left of it. Jack had had to reluctantly pull away, but left his arms as they were.

'Or we could carry on as normal. But not hide it. I mean, not give everyone a massive announcement or anything, just…'

'When they know, they'll know?' Kate finished off.

'Yeah. Yeah, that sounds great.'

'Cool.' She said finally, and gave him another light kiss before they headed back into the hatch.

Inside, the first person that Kate saw was Ana Lucia, talking with Hurley on the main table. It seemed as if he was explaining to her the whole hatch and 'the button' idea, while she was getting really bored. Not that she showed it to Hurley. She wants to know something. Kate thought. It's the only time when someone would listen to someone they don't know while getting bored and not letting them know.

'Heya dudes.' Hurley said as he saw Kate, and then Jack entering the hatch. 'I've been explaining Ana Lucia, did I say that right?' he asked, turned back to Ana Lucia. She just simply nodded. 'Yeah I was explaining about the whole hatch thing.'

Jack nodded to show that he got the message. 'Who's by the computer?'

'Um. Locke I think. Yeah he's been there ever since we came here. God, that dude is seriously freaking me out. What did he do before we crashed onto the island?'

'He worked in a box factory.' Kate said. Everyone, including Ana Lucia, who looked much more alert, turned to look at her.

'Dude, how do you know that?' Hurley asked.

Kate shrugged, slightly embarrassed that they were all string at her like that. 'He told me.'

Jack was giving her a smile and then looked downwards. 'I'll go and have a talk to him.' with this, he walk off.

'Where's Sawyer?' Kate asked the other two, a bit uncomfortable with the silence she had caused. Hurley was wearing a shocked look on his face, obviously contemplating whether what Kate had said was true. Ana Lucia however was just staring at her. She removed her gaze when Kate met her eyes, but not after she had given Kate a dirty look.

'He went into the other room.' Hurley finally said pointing to the room with the couch in it.

Kate nodded to say that she understood. She took one final glance at Ana Lucia. What was up with her? She wasn't looking at her anymore. Kate walked into the other room.

There, Sawyer was lying on the couch, asleep. As she went over to him, she realised that in his hand there was an MP3 player. Something that wasn't there earlier. Kate smirked. He obviously didn't take Jack's advice and stayed in. Probably from his stash. Probably Shannon's. She thought of the poor girl.

Kate kneeled beside him and opened his hand to take out the player. She wanted to see what as on it. She missed music. I wonder what kinda taste she has… had?

Sawyer had had a pretty tight grip onto it. 'C'mon Sawyer,' she whispered, still smirking, 'lemme have some fun.'

As if he had heard her, the grip loosened. Kate checked to make sure that he hadn't woken up, and was actually surprised to find out that he hadn't.

But she was even more surprised with what happened next.

All of a sudden, Sawyer had started to shake, as if he was having a fit. Kate quickly grabbed his face and held it still, but he broke out of it.

'JACK!'

Hehehe! What did Kate do? Did she… no she couldn't have… did she kill him? And what's Ana Lucia going to do now? How far is she going to go to find out about Kate, and then go further?

R&R! Long chapter yeah I know… but that's coz I dunno if I'll update until Saturday! SORRY! Exams killin me here! Lolz
