Chapter 4: Plans and a walk home

"Would you like to spend some time alone with me now that my rounds are over?" Jack asked smiling down at Ali that afternoon about five o'clock. 'I'm going to ask you to marry me.' He thought to himself. "Sure it's been awhile since I went on rounds with you I forgot how many people you have to check on here." Ali said looking up at Jack.

"Yeah I have a lot of people to check on. I get to know them because it's such a small island and it makes it that much harder when I lose one of them. Getting new ones is good though. Matter of fact I think I'll get a new one in a couple of days." Jack agreed. "I just wish I had equipment to check on my patients with." He added. "Jack you do the best you can with what you have Jack. That's all we can ask of you." Ali said gently reassuring him.

"I know. Do you want to go by Charlie and Claire's to let Lissie know that we are heading out?" Jack asked. "Sure." Ali answered. "We should probably stop by Sayid's and let him know to hanging out with her till we get back." Jack added. "That's one of the reason's I love you baby. You're always plotting ways to make people happy." Ali smiled and stood up on her tip toes to kiss Jack's cheek.

"You got that right." Jack responded with a grin of his own as he linked fingers with her. 'You just don't know how much I'm wishing that my current plot will make the two of us happy. Who knows maybe it'll make your wish for Lissie to find love again come true to.' He thought with a wickedly happy grin on his face.

Jack and Ali got to Charlie and Claire's just as Sayid got there to walk Lissie back home. "Hey Sayid, what are you doing here?" Ali asked curiously. "I thought I might walk Lissie back to the home you two share." Sayid answered. "Okay, well I'm going to check on Claire." Ali added and stepped into Charlie and Claire's home. "Good. Sayid do you mind maybe eating dinner with her too? The reason I'm asking is because I plan on taking Ali out alone tonight and I was kind of hoping that you might keep Lissie company." Jack explained as Charlie stepped out of his house.

"Sure I don't mind." Sayid agreed. "Where you two heading out to?" Charlie asked anxiously. "Not far Charlie." Jack answered and gave Sayid and Charlie the directions.

"Now if Claire does happen to go into labor while I'm gone I want you to go to Lissie's Charlie. Sayid will be there and he can come get me and Lissie can get Kate. She's become a good midwife here on the island." He added.

"You must be talkin' about Kate." Lissie said as she stepped out of the small house that Charlie, Claire and Aaron called home. "Yeah I am. I was telling Charlie that if Claire goes into labor to run over to your and Ali's place. Then Sayid will come for me, he knows where Ali and I will be, and you can go to Kate's for her. Kate did deliver Aaron for Claire and helped me when Sun went into labor with Trini. She's helped me deliver a few other babies here as well." Jack added.

"Ready?" Ali asked as she joined the group and quickly took her place at Jack's side. "I sure am." Jack answered with a smile.

"Bye guys." Jack and Ali called together. "Bye." Charlie, Lissie and Sayid chorused. "Are you ready to head home?" Sayid asked Lissie. "Yeah." She answered and they headed back toward the beach.

"So what would you be doing if you where home right now?" Lissie asked Sayid. "I don't know for sure. Maybe reading a book or fixing something. No, I'd probably be looking for a house or apartment." He answered; he had told her that he had been moving to the states when the plane crashed.

"How about you?" He countered. "Either working or road tripping down a tree covered country road with Ali. The leaves would be a mixture of red, yellow, brown and green, we'd have music blaring and there would be a nip in the air. Who knows there might even be snow on the ground." Lissie answered.

"Snow already? I've never seen snow." Sayid told her. "You're not missing much. It's cold and wet and usually causes a problem, but were used to it in Wyoming." Lissie explained as she opened the door to her beach front home.
