Chapter 5: Will it be a yes or no?
Jack and Ali had walked for at least fifteen minutes before they made it to a romantic cove. Everything was already set up thanks to Hurley; Jack had asked the big guy if he'd mind setting it up for him while he kept Ali busy. Hurley, being the friendly guy he was, had agreed and made sure that everything was just right.
"Oh Jack, it's beautiful." Ali gasped. "Yeah, I'm going to have to thank Hurly. He set it up for us while I kept you busy today." Jack explained. "I'll have to stop by his and Bobbie's house and thank him too." Ali added referring to Hurley's wife Bobbie who had been supportive of Hurley after Libby's death. Hurley and Bobbie had become close during that time and had ended up falling in love; the two had only been married for a couple of months and were incredibly happy together.
Ali and Jack walked over to the blanket and curled up together for a snuggle. "Would you like a slice of papaya?" Jack asked after lighting the candles and hour later. "Sure." Ali answered then giggled when Jack processed to feed her the papaya.
"Um, let's see, we spend the day together, then we come for a romantic evening alone and you feed me fruit. Not that I don't appreciate the special attention Jack but you must be trying to butter me up." Ali told her boyfriend. "What is it that you want Dr. Jack Sheppard?" Ali asked with a grin.
"Well, I'd try and argue with that observation, but your right I do want something." Jack answered and quickly rose up till he was kneeling on one knee beside her. "This is my father's wedding ring, the only ring I had with me when the plane crashed." Jack explained.
"I'm hoping that you'll be willing to wear it and become my wife. If you say yes, we can have Eko marry us, Lissie can be your maid of honor and Sayid can be my best man. If we are lucky enough to be rescued one day I promise that I'll buy you any ring you want." Jack promised as looked into Ali's eyes.
"It seems to me that you've given this a lot of thought Jack. I'll need to think about it too." Ali said making Jack suffer for about two seconds before saying "Of course I'll marry you Jack" and flinging herself into his arms. She was raining kisses all over his face and receiving her fair share in return when a voice rang out calling "Jack." "Was that Sayid?" Ali asked. "Fraid so." Jack answered quickly rising to his feet and helping Ali up a second later.
