'To much to take - part 2'

Kate was covered in blood and shaking from the pain.

"What have you done you stupid bitch!"

"Saving our relationship Jack, and killing that criminal, she can't ruin us now."

Jack's anger towards Juliet was so unimaginable at this point. With that he pulled put the gun from the back of his jeans and shoot Juliet five times in the chest.

" There is no us! There never was!" Jack screamed at Juliet's now lifeless body.

He quickly fixed all his attention on Kate.

" Come on Kate stay with me…. come on Kate!" Jack said as he put pressure on her wound, and began giving her CPR.

After five minuets Kate started to move….her eyes were beginning to open..

" That's it Kate…"

Kate took in a long needed breath…..she looked at Jack who was frantically trying to stop the bleeding.

" What happened?" she asked quivering

"Emm Juliet shot you…I guess you were right about her" he told her, his voice shaking from trying to hold back his tears.

" J.. Jack I'm st.. starting to feel cold…w…w.h…"Kate tried to speak and stay conscious but it was no use, she was loosing too much blood.

Kate's eyes rolled back in her head "No Kate!" he shouted….he had to get her to the infirmary.

Jack picked Kate up and some how managed to carry her down the hill.

On his way running to the beach Jack was met by Locke and Sayid, they heard the gun shoots and came to see what was happening, luckily for Jack with their help he got Kate to the infirmary/tent in no time.

When hey reached the tent Sayid's and Locke's Face's were full of confusion.

"What happened?" the bald man asked

"Juliet shot her……pass me those strips" Jack told them

" Juliet?" said a shocked Sayid

" YES!….the strips please John!" Jack asked, he was know in full doctor mode, until Kate was alive and awake he was not going to come out of it.

Jack took pressure off the wound to take a better look at it…. Blood squirted up into his face.

" Damn it!….the bullet hit an artery!" Jack exclaimed as he returned pressure to the wound.

"OK Sayid I'm going to need you to hold Kate still while I , find, clamp and fix the artery, ok"

" Of course" nodded the Arab man.

" John I'll need you to assist me through this, so when I ask you for something you give it to me straight away, got it" Jack ordered

"Yes sir" said the bald man.

Jack let out a sigh " OK are you ready…. Sayid do not! let her move ok"

This was going to be very painful for Kate as there was no painkillers for her to take, it was going to put a lot of stress on Kate's body and her heart… this really worried Jack.

Jack stuck two fingers into Kate's shoulder and grabbed the artery. Using a tweezers he clamped the artery.

" Locke give me that sewing kit…"

Jack quickly sewed the two ends of the artery together. In moments like these Jack really shone through as a doctor.. A great doctor.

" John pour some peroxide on that cloth for me"

Jack cleaned and sterilised her wound and then sewed Kate's shoulder.

It's over she is sewed up…but she has lost so much blood.. now.. All they can do is wait… Wait to see if she wakes up…wait to see if she makes it through the day.

" Sayid, John.. Thank you so much for all your help you don't know how much it means to me" Jack said as tears ran down his face, he normally wouldn't dream of showing weakness in front of Sayid or especially Locke, but this time he didn't care, it was Kate who was lying there practically lifeless. " I'll take it from here"

" OK Jack, she will be fine, do not worry…. I will inform the camp about Kate" Sayid said as he and Locke exited the tent and left Jack with Kate.

Jack knelt down beside Kate, he took her hand in his and brushed his lips against her soft skin.

Five hours past and Kate has still not awoken, Jack is still sitting beside her, talking to her hoping that she will wake up, he longs to look into her beautiful green eyes , she her smile. Ever few minuets he kisses her hand or strokes her cheek.

Jack feels her hand twitch in his…. Kate's eyes begin to flutter open….Jack's heart has stopped.

" Kate?" he says quietly

She opens her eyes and looks at Jack….. "Jack?"

"Hey Kate….hey" he said with the biggest smile and then looked at the ground.

" Hey Jack…… What's wrong?" Kate asked in a hoarse voice.

When Jack returned her gaze tears were streaming down his face.

" Kate I'm so Sorry….I'm so sorry" he cried

" Hey it's ok" Kate told him reassuringly

" No, No it's not Kate….. You nearly died.. and it was because of me, because I didn't listen to you about Juliet, and she shot you…..I'm sorry for everything I said to you when we were out in the jungle….. You were right about that bitch and it nearly cost you your life….I'm sorry for everything" Jack cried as he cupped her face

" You don't need to apologise Jack, there is nothing to forgive" Kate told him sweetly as she rapped her good arm around his neck and pulled him closer to her until their faces were almost touching.

"I Love you Jack…. I have since the day we met"

Tears of joy ran down Jack's face " I love you too Kate, I love you so much, I'll never let you go, you'll always be in my heart"

With their love for each other finally confessed , their lips met in a gentle get passionate kiss. With so much emotion driving it, this kiss would be one that neither of them would ever forget.

When Jack broke away Kate let out a sigh of disappointment. Jack had to laugh at this.

" Are you disappointed that we stopped?" he said with raised eyebrows

" Yeah, of course I am , I have been waiting so long for us to kiss again"

" yeah me too" Jack said lovingly and brushed his lips against Kate's . " But your still weak…. you lost a fair amount of blood Kate…. you need your rest" Jack told her in his serious doctor voice .

" Yeah ok…." Kate said…. She actually isn't being stubborn normally she would put up a fight.

" Would you like me to bring you back to your tent, it might be a bit more comfortable than here" Jack asked stroking her cheek with his hand. When she leaned into his touch Jack lit up inside.

"Yeah, if you wouldn't mind"

" Why would I mind? Can you stand?" he asked

" Le'me see"

Kate placed her feet on the ground, wobbling she managed to stand up…. But when she tried to walk she lost her balance and fell over, only to be caught in the muscular arms of Jack.

" Eh that would be a no" Kate laughed

" No worries" Jack said and effortlessly lifted Kate up into his arms, being careful not to hurt her shoulder " Are you comfy?"

" Very" Kate said as she snuggled into his chest.

As Jack and Kate passed the beach dwellers they got a good few "bout times" and " Swiss swoos".

It was a bout time, they have been crazy about each other since they first met and now that the walls that they used to keep each other out have collapsed , their relationship can only grow from here.

They finally made it to Kate's tent. Jack gently laid her down on her bed. Kate immediately missed the heat that radiated from Jack's body.

"I'll come back to check on you in a while, you just get some rest" he said sweetly as he put a stray strand of Kate's beautiful hair behind her ear.

" Or.. you could stay here and rest with me…." Kate said giving him her irresistible puppy dog eyes.

Without hesitation Jack slid himself underneath the blankets. Kate buried her head in his chest " You are very comfy"

" Yeah I get that a lot" he joked

" Hey!" she said in a high pitched tone

They shared a laugh together and then quickly feel asleep in each others arms.At that moment everything felt so right, they were ment to be together, no one doubted that.
