"Thanks Charlie." Jack replied. "I'm Jack." He quickly glanced at the other girl. "If you feel fit" he answered with hesitation in his voice. "Perhaps you can take some others and try to find some suitcases for clothes or blankets."
He now turned his attention the injured woman. "You're safe." he said. "That's the most important." He went with his hand over her stomach to check whether there was anything not right. "Where does it hurt ?"

-------

Sawyer had made his own campfire by now. He'd collected some firewood and with his new lighter, the job was quickly done. He watched the group and he knew, just knew that they would all look at that dotor as their leader. Sawyer groaned, he would be alone here, but he would survive. Because then, that's what he'd always done.

Amanda looked at the doctor, still not realizing the situation. "I'm safe here?" she asked. "Here..." Amanda whispered, pointing down her left side she was lying on. "I hurts...all down here..." Suddenly, she realized something, something which made her to think almost totally clear again. She moved her hands to her stomach. "My baby..." she whispered, staring at the doctor in shock. "Please...is everything okay with the baby?...Is everything alright?"

Claire slowly stood up. "Is everything okay with the baby?" the other pregnant girl was asking to the doctor. She couldn't help but thinking about her own baby. she passed a hand on her stomach. she hadn't feel the baby moving since she was on the plane. after the accident, nothing. oh please tell me everything is okay she thought.
she saw charlie coming back from the forest with some wood, and decided to reach him. at least, she sort of know him. "ehi Charlie" she said "would you mind if I help you with the others?"

Charlie looked up as he heard a voice and saw Claire coming up to him. "Sure you can help me with it" he answered, while letting the wood fall on the ground. "Thank you." He started putting the wood in place so they could put it on fire. "This will work..." he said after a while. "Now we need something to put it on fire..."

"yeah" agreed Claire "I'm not very hungry, but I guess that we have to eat something..I wonder where we will find food though.."

_________________

Charlie nodded. "I'm sure, we'll find something to eat." he said to Claire. "If this is on fire, we can go and look for something...if you want..."

"that's alright" agreed claire "I think I saw a man earlier in the afternoon, who was looking around for things, I guess ((Sawyer))...maybe he found something..."

"You're baby will probably be alright. But you need to rest." Jack answered as he lifted her shirt and noticed a nasty gash down her side. "I'll be able to stich that." Jack said to reassure her. "I'll try to give you some anti biotics and you'll feel much better then."
He looked through some suitcases, which the others had piled up, and found a needle and enough antibiotics. He'd expected more though, there had to be more medicines on the plane than what he'd gathered now...
He shrugged and decided that first thing in the morning he would try to find them and then returned to Amanda.
"My name is Jack" he asked to distract her while he sowed her up. "What's your name?"

((Sawyer found some of the medicine, but Jack will figure that out later ))

"Amanda" Amanda answered Jacks' question. She didn't even felt as Jack began stitching her up, she was already used to the touch of needles in her skin. She put her hands over her stomach again and signed deeply, suddenly, she grabbed the doctors hands, almost in panic again. "Please..." she whispered. "Please, make sure everything will be alright with my baby..I...I...couldn't stand it...if I would lose it..." she was almost whispering now, more to herself. "Not again...not this time...please..."

"Yeah..." Charlie answered. "Maybe we can go over and ask him." He looked beside him where Jack was working to fix Amandas' cuts and stood up again. "Come with me if you want" he said to Claire. "Probably we have luck and find something to eat...and some coats or blankets for tonight."

Jack gently took Amanda's hand. "Don't worry" he whispered. "I won't let anything happen to you or your baby. You'll both be safe." Then he gave her the antibiotics and a bottle of water. "I'll get you some blankets then you can get some sleep." he said and he finally let go of her hand.

"How's it going Charlie?" Jack asked Charlie who was also standing next to the pile of suitcases. "I think we need to sort all stuff tommorow. Find your own belongings, divide blankets and stuff, try to get things organised."

Look at yourself he thought Get things organised. Jack felt a flare of doubt as he was looking for the blankets. People were looking at him for things to do, but he first had to look after himself. He gasped as the he felt another pang of pain from the gasp, closed his eyes until the waves of pain were gone and then continued searching.

-----

It was dark and Sawyer lay curled up next to his fire. His head possitioned on the bag with his new stash, which included alot of medicine he found nearby the plane. He hadn't yet spoken to the others yet except for the girl who'd commented on him gathering belongings of thise who'd past away. He wondered what had happened and why the plane had crashed. He suspected the Iraqi had something to do with it and the first thing what he was going to do in the morning was confront him with his thoughts.

Trista walked aroung, she hadn't been able to find much wood to make a fire. Seeing one close to where she went over. "Um, can I stay by the your fire for the night." She asked approching it until she saw who's fire it was. "Oh its you." She remarked to the Blue eyed man. After waiting a fw minutes, and not getting anything she spoke. "Well, answer me."

"yes,I'm coming with you" said Claire, slowly trying to get up "I don't really feel like staying here alone.." she added, following charlie through the beach. "I can't really remember the moment when the plane crashed.."she said a few minutes later "can you?"

_________________

Sawyer groaned and looked up at the person who'd come to bother him: it was that girl again. "Listen Sweetcheeks" he said annoyed. "Why the hell don't you get your own fire. Mine is private. I'm not the touring guide. You see that man over there?" he pointed to Jack who was still getting some blankets at the pile of suitcases. "He is.. go and complain to him about the facilities here."

(( Nothing personal River, it's just the way Sawyer is aye? ))

"Thank you, doctor" Amanda answered, smiling weakly. She laid back in the sand and shivered a bit. Then she slept away, her hands still protectively over her stomach.

Charlie looked at Claire and hesitated for a moment. Sure, he remembered everything he had done on the plane before the crash, but he knew, he couldn't say this that easily. "I...I don't quite remember either..." he finally said, continuing to seatch through the pile of suitcases. Then he turned back to Jack as he heard his voice. "Everything's quite okay. We've found some coats and warm jackets we can use as blankets in the suitcases." He paused for a moment. "Doctor? Is everything alright with you?"

Trista rolled her eyes. "Listen buddy, I couldn't find enough wood and its not like you don't have room, I will stay over here, on this side." She told him. "And that guy, well, he looks pretty busy."

"ok" said claire to charlie. she didn't remember either. she tried to take a blanked from the ground, but she couldn't really reach it, because of her stomach. she gave up taking the blanket, and looked at jack. "doctor? is everything alright with you?" charlie said. "I think he's hurt" she said.
