A Visit With An Old Friend

Authors note: Thank you so much for all the wonderful reviews. I don't own Lost.

"Good-bye Jack," she said as she hung up the phone.

The tears were pouring down her face, he nose was red, and her eyes were puffy. She had to talk to someone, anyone, she began to think of all the people so could go visit. She couldn't talk to Hurley, he would call Jack, Sun just wouldn't understand her, and Sayid would think that she was crazy. After going through the list she finally thought of the one person who might be able to understand her, she had to go talk to Kevin. She began to drive to Kevin's house, she knew it was late but he had told her if she ever needed anything she was always welcome.

Jack hurried upstairs to get Aaron; he had to go find Kate even if it took all night to find her. Once he had the kids ready, he put them in the car and began to back out of the driveway.

He began to call everyone he could think of, anyone that Kate had been in contact with for the past few years.

"Hello," a voice on the other end answered.

"Sun it's Jack, is Kate with you," Jack asked her.

"No I haven't seen her," Sun told him, "What's going on?"

"She just left and when I called her she wouldn't tell me where she was," He said sounding worried and irritated at the same time.

"Do you need me to help you look for her?" Sun asked trying to help.

"No, just please call me if you see or hear from her," he said to her.

"I will," she replied, "Do you want me to call the others?"

"If you don't mind," he said.

"Okay I will call you if I find out anything," she told him as they both hung up the phone.

Sun began to call all of the other survivors, to see if Kate had called them or came to visit them. Unfortunately, she had not been in contact with anyone, no calls, and no visits. They promised to let her know if Kate called them and asked if there was anything they could do. Sun told them to just sit and wait; if Jack didn't find her then they would all go looking.

Kate had been driving for what seemed like ages, when Kate pulled up to Kevin's house. She checked her face in the mirror she had to fix her makeup she didn't want Kevin to know that she was upset. She made her way out of the car and up towards the house, she knocked on the door trying not to start crying again.

"What do you want," Kevin said as he began to open the door, he stopped dead in his tracks when he realized it was Kate.

Kate, what are you doing here?" He asked her completely confused as to why she was at his doorstep at one in the morning.

"Can I come in?" She asked him.

"Sure, come on in," he said as he helped her into the house.

"Where is Libby?" Kate asked him once they had made it into the living room.

"She went to New York for the weekend with some of her friends," Kevin answered her as the sat down on the couch.

"Are you going to tell me what you are doing here or am I just going to have to guess?" He questioned her once again.

"I just had to see you," she answered, "I miss seeing you."

"Kate, what is going on where is Jack?" He asked her knowing that there was something she wasn't telling him.

"It doesn't matter," Kate said with no emotion whatsoever.

"I need you to tell me what's going on," he told her, trying desperately to get her to talk to him.

"I just can't be with Jack anymore," she told him, "I'm not good enough for him."

"Kate, Jack loves you no matter what, he doesn't care if your not perfect," He said trying to comfort her.

"He hates me," she began to cry, "he will never forgive me for what I did."

"What exactly did you do?" Kevin asked her expecting to here the worst.

"I killed our baby," she cried, "I fell down some stairs and I told him that I was fine and that he didn't need to take me to the hospital."

"Kate, he knows that you didn't do it on purpose," Kevin said as he pulled her into a hug.

"He will never forgive me, he will never love me again," she continued to sob.

"Kate, its going to be okay," he said as he pulled back to see her face.

Kate didn't know what came over her, but something about Kevin comforting her made her want to kiss him. She leaned forward and began to kiss him, but she was surprised when he began to pull away from her.

"Kate, this isn't a good Idea," he told he as he stood up.

"Kevin, please I just want to forget everything," she pleaded with him, "I just want to go back to how we use to be."

"It can never be that way," he told her, "we aren't the same people we use to be."

"But can't we just go back, just for tonight?" she asked him her eyes begging for him to just give in.

"No, Kate I love Libby now and you love Jack," Kevin told her.

"But Jack doesn't love me anymore, I need you Kevin," she pleaded once more.

"I'm going to go call Jack, he is probably worried sick about you," Kevin told her as he walked over to the phone.

"Kev, please don't," she begged him, "he won't understand."

"Okay, I won't call him," Kevin said as he set the phone back down. "Why don't you just go lay down and try to get some sleep, he suggested.

Kate curled up on the couch, it took only a few minutes for her to fall asleep, she had been so tired because she hadn't been sleeping since she lost the baby.

Once Kevin was sure she was asleep, he pick up the phone and dialed Jack's number hoping that he would answer.

"Kate, is that you," Jack asked as he answered his phone.

"No, Jack it's Kevin," he told him, "Kate is over here, she showed up at my house thirty minutes ago."

"Is she okay?" Jack asked as he breathed a sigh of relief.

"She is fine," Kevin said, "but she was really upset, and I think you should know that she kissed me."

Jack's heart dropped into his stomach, he felt like he was losing all control, it was like he didn't even know who she was anymore. One minute she was completely fine and the next she was kissing her ex-boyfriend and refusing to eat.

"I will be right over," he said as he snapped out of his thoughts, "thank you for telling me."

"It's no problem Jack," Kevin said to him, "that's what I'm here for."
