Kate awoke the next morning, alone. She sat up, looking around, she peeked out to see that the sun was rather high in the sky. How long had she been asleep? In the distance she could hear yelling. She emerged from sawyer's hut to see Jack and Sawyer arguing on the beach, Jin holding Sawyer back. She ran as quickly as she could, before she started to feel dizzy. She stopped a few feet away from them, and as they noticed her there, they grew quiet. Kate was about to speak, but her dizziness became overwhelming and she fell forward, Jack leaping to catch her. Sawyer glared at him as Jin let him go. He kneeled down next to Jack and Kate trying his hardest to hold back from socking Jack square in the jaw.

"She alright?" He asked instead.

"She needs to drink more water. Dizziness and fainting spells can happen often in pregnancy."

Sun came walking over with some sort of drink. "This helped me." She said softly. It was a mix of things from Sun's garden, that would helped ease her stomach, her mind and her thirst all at once. As Kate came too, she looked up at Jack and then immediately over to Sawyer.

Softly she said, "If this has to do with me, I'm kicking both your asses."

Jack helped her to her feet. "You need to rest as much as possible Kate, don't exert yourself. Lots of fluids and eat when you feel up to it. Sun said this should help you." He said, handing her the drink Sun made.

"Sawyer, STAY with her. She needs you right now. And you're so God damned stubborn and selfish...you...you can't keep her away from me, understand that, I'm the doctor, she needs me."

"I can take care of her." He said, pulling her near him by the waist.

"How about Kate can take care of herself?" She snapped. "Stop acting like children, its disturbing. Aren't there more important things to worry about then me passing out? I'm FINE. Just a little dizzy. You two need to back off of each other. This situation isn't going to get any easier. But regardless, I'm having a baby and we need to come to grips with that. You two at eachothers throats doesn't help, and it doesn't make things any easier for me." She shook her head and started off to go see Claire. Jack tried to follow her but Hurley stopped him.

"Its a chick thing dude, I'd say leave her alone until the hormones die down or something."

Jack shook his head as he looked at Sawyer and then walked off.

Hurley looked at Sawyer. Sawyer looked back at him and said, "Fine situations I've gotten myself into, aye Chewy?" Before walking down to the shore.

Hurley, like Jack, shook his head at Sawyer eyeing Libby out of the corner of his eye and walking over to talk to her.

----------------------------------------------

Kate sat down next to Claire, tucking a wavy lock of hair behind her ear. She smiled gently at Aaron who was laying on his stomach on a blanket next to Claire.

"I keep thinking I'm dreaming...like any moment I'll wake up in the hatch or something and everything will be as it was." She looked down to her feet then back at Claire. "I never thought I'd ever be a Mom, or if I'd ever even get the chance to be a Mom..."

Claire smiled gently at her. "I didn't either." She said as she rested her hand on Kate's. "But things happen that you just can't change. Aaron gave me a whole new outlook...he's taught me so much about myself." Kate smiled back at her but the smile quickly faded. "But Sawyer...and Jack...things just aren't the same anymore...its so strange...I mean Sawyer said some things to me and held me in a such a way last night that I was overwhelmed with this feeling that things are going to workout and he can change and he'll open up...but then I see him arguing with Jack and being a jackass again and I keep telling myself to stop being stupid...And Jack, he looks at me now like I killed his dog...like a heartbroken little boy."

"If I can do it, I'm dead sure you can, Kate. I'm a single mother raising a baby on an island in the middle of nowhere. You're strong and I know that even though right now Jack's kinda a mess, he'll be there for you just as I will." Claire smiled wide as Kate smiled back at her. "Sawyer though...he's complicated. You never know what's going to happen with him. But you've got to worry about you and your baby. He has to make his own choices."

Kate nodded, agreeing with what Claire said.

"You should eat too." Claire said as Kate sipped the drink Sun made for her. Claire offered her a banana and Kate gagged.

"Thanks but no thanks." She said as Claire laughed. "I don't think I'll ever eat a banana again for the rest of my life." Claire handed her half a mango instead.

"Just try and eat as much as you can. The first few months are pretty bad...and then you get to the waddling, the achy back, sore legs...oh and labor...Good thing you witnessed mine firsthand, aye?"

Kate's eyes grew wide. "I hadn't even thought about that yet..."

"I'm not gonna candy coat anythin'," Claire started. "Pregnancy is bloody horrible at times...but then you feel the baby kick and when its born..." She smiled fondly at Aaron, who was kicking his legs wildly as he lifted up on his arms with a baby giggle. "Its so amazing to hold your baby in your arms. Its a feeling you just can't explain."

Kate take a deep breath squinting in the gentle sunlight. "Guess I've just got to think positive."

"Good On Ya." Claire said. "I know its hard being on an island, having a baby and..." She stopped before she got into Sawyer and Jack and said the wrong things. "Well, just remember you've always got Aaron and I."

"Thank You Claire." She put her hand to her stomach and jumped up. "Oh God...remind me not to eat Mango anymore either." And with that, she was off.
