The helicopter was loud and the ride was bumpy. Kate was anxious to get to the freighter. Frank and Jack were arguing on whether to go back to the island because they were running out of fuel. Knowing how stubborn Jack could be, Kate knew that if they didn't find the freighter soon the helicopter was going to sink right in the middle of the ocean. Kate tried to drown out Jack and Frank's voices, staring out at the ocean. James' voice soon interrupted her thoughts. He whispers in her ear, asking her to do something for him. Kate barely has time to react before his mouth is on hers. His mouth is familiar, like home. His rough hand caressing her soft cheek makes her heart race. She closes her eyes, deepening the kiss, sensing there's a reason for the sudden outburst. They break apart and Kate looks into James' eyes as he tells her to do what he told her to do. And then he's gone. She yells out his name and looks down into the ocean, searching for his head to break the water, and he does. Kate's heart breaks, but at the same time, she knows that he did it for her. She smiles. He is a hero.
