Chapter 3: Daddy Jack.
Olivia and May were wide awake, Kate however was sleeping, so, Jack had both of the babies, one on each leg, tugged tightly against his stomach, legs pressed together.
'Well, you're a regular Howard Stern now aren't you?' Sawyer asked coming up beside Jack and plopping himself down. Jack rolled his eyes and just ignored the comment. 'Where's Freckles?' He asked.
'Sleeping.' Jack replied. Sawyer nodded still looking at the babies. There was moment of silence.
'What's this one's name?' He pointed to May.
'May.'
'This one?'
'Olivia.'
'How can you tell them apart?'
'They've both got freckles, but May has them all over her face, where as Olivia only has them scattered across her nose and May has blue eyes and Olivia green.' Jack said moving Olivia closer since she had begun to squirm.
'I see.' They sat their both looking at the babies. Jack couldn't help but think what if he was the father? What if he had given Kate the babies, he knew they couldn't possibly be his but what if he was the rightful father and Kate wanted him to be. Him? Kate's babies fathers? That was one dream just too far out of reach. Or at least for know.
'Hey.' Kate said coming up behind them, Sawyer jumped but Jack remained calm, smiling at her. 'How are they?' She asked.
'Fine, I think Olivia is getting tired though, she's squirming a lot.' Kate smiled and thanked him, taking Olivia out of his arms and embracing the little girl in her own. Kate smiled gratefully at him.
'Thank you so much, Jack.' She said. Jack grinned at her and nodded.
'Here, Freckles, I've got something for you.' Sawyer said, Jack's head twisted to him and he glared. 'I'll be right back.' He jogged off and Kate sat down rubbing Olivia's back gently. 'Back.' He said coming up to them, in his hand was a tiny stuffed rabbit. It was pretty new looking except for the island dirt on it. 'You could give it to Olivia, for a toy or something.' Jack silently cursed, he had found that on the first day here and asked around but then abounded it ruble, Sawyer must had have found it. Kate smiled and reached out to take it but paused and thought for a moment, looking at May who was sitting curled into Jacks hold.
'What about, May?' She asked looking at her other daughter. 'I don't want her to feel sad or anything.'
'There not going to feel anything!' Sawyer said, sounding skeptical. 'There babies, wait till there older and one of them gets a boyfriend first, then we have a problem.' He rolled his eyes.
'No, it just won't feel right.'
'Well, you're holding Olivia right now, don't you think May's jealous?' She asked. Kate blinked and looked at May, still cuddling at against Jack, who was holding her against his shoulder. 'She's with Jack. She seems to like him.' She said smiling at Jack, who blushed and filled with, surprisingly, male pride. What was happening to him?
