This is the last chapter...

Chapter 18

'I can't believe we've got it!' Kate squealed in excitement as Jack started up the motor home.

'So... where do you want to go, then?' he asked, 'There is a big selection. The furthest away, the better.'

'Hmmm... how about Spain?' she giggled, as Jack took a moment to get the joke, swerving the vehicle in the meantime making Kate burst out in laughter even more.

'Yeah, very funny. No, but seriously, where are we going?'

'I don't know... I don't remember the last time I got out of this state.' she said, solemnly. Jack looked at her amazed. 'Too much work.' she answered and sighed looking out of the window.

'Oh. Well, I guess we could just travel around anywhere south and see where fate takes us.' more and more cars came into the streets as the sun shone up high.

'Fate? I didn't think that you were one to believe in fate.' looking down, Kate smiled softly to herself.

'Not really, I don't. I just thought that the phrase worked well.' he chuckled, Kate returning back the same remark.

A few more minutes passed, Jack just driving wherever his instinct took him. If a road looked interesting to visit, then he swerved the car, pushing both him and Kate to one side of the vehicle and carried one driving. Even though they were still famous criminals, it didn't feel that way when they were in the motor home, driving away to their new future.

'Kate.' Jack whispered softly, concentrating on the road ahead at the same time.'Kate...' he said this time a little louder. She stirred a little in her sleep, but only to his dismay when she turned around to the other side, falling asleep once again. Chuckling, Jack carried on driving, and as soon as he found a safe and secluded place to park, parked the motor home there and leaned forwards.

'Kate.' he whispered once again, almost too softly, trying to wake her up but at the same time not to wake her up and just enjoying watching her sleep peacefully. One touch was all that was needed when Kate woke up, adjusting her eyes and stretching.

'Huh?' she asked, to herself rather than Jack. She looked around and then focused on Jack's face, finally remembering what was happening. She sighed.

'Hi.' Kate greeted and Jack nodded back.

'Uhm... I was just going to go and get us something to eat from the supermarket over there. I found a couple of cupboards here so I thought that it would be good if we get a few things so we can eat on the way.' he said. It was then that Kate realised that it was night time. She looked around, hardly anything was visible.

'Jack... be careful, okay? They might still be looking for us.' she said, too flat for Jack to understand her emotion.

'I doubt it. We are around twenty kilometers away from Iowa.' he said as he took the keys, ready to get out of the car.

'Oh.' Kate said, surprised. 'Erm. Okay then but be quick.' she smiled as he shut the door behind him.

Around twenty minutes passed when Jack came back into the motor home. He saw Kate looking around, exploring their new home.

'What do you think?' he said as he put the carrier bags down on the car seat.

'It's alright. A bit small but it will do for now,' she smiled then carried on, 'But Jack... there's only one double bed.'

'Yeah, I was going to tell you about that...' Jack trailed on, looking down almost too ashamed.

'Well, it seems a waste to have it just for one person...' she looked down, ashamed as well.

'So, er... what do you want to do?' he asked. 'You can sleep on the bed if you want and I'll sleep at the two front seats.' Jack said.

'Okay.' Kate nodded slowly even though she felt bad for making him sleep at the two front seats whereas she would comfortably sleep at a double bed.

'Good.' he nodded.

After they had their dinner, showers and laid out the whole 'house', each went to their sleeping area and within minutes, fell soundly asleep.

Joke! XD Of course it's not the last chap, I just wanted to joke around with you all! hehe! I'm mean, aren't I. Well there are about 10 more chapters to go but I'm not saying how this will finish. As I said there will be lots of characters from LOST coming in. One particular one I already mentioned, of course Claire and Charlie. Another character will play a very important role soon but I'm not saying who. As you can see, Jack and Kate are getting closer to each other as some of you wanted more Jate so that's what I'm giving you! But give them a chance, okay? They only just met! Sorry for not updating sooner but I was really busy this week. Thanks for all the reviews, though! Continue to review and I'll update soon! Coming up in the next few chaps: Some more Jate... actual Jate this time. ;)
