"I'm good.."
Boone was still watching Ethan. He was abit scared for everybody's safety.

Jack could see the fear in Boone's eyes. Jack had to admit he was scared, too, but for a whole other set of reasons. Jack looked back down at Ethan, who regarded the bottle of tea curiously.
"It's a hawthron infusion. It'll help for the blood loss," Jack explained.
He looked back up at Boone.
"It's nice to see you're doing better," Jack said lightly.
A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, but faltered immediately. It was hard to be happy at a time as somber as it was.

Boone nodded abit and stayed quiet for a minute or so. He then looked up to Jack.
"You should rest alittle..you don't look so good"

"I need to keep an eye on Ethan here for a little while longer. Once I'm sure he's out of the woods, then I can sleep. I'm fine for now," Jack replied.
The truth was that he wasn't fine. He was exhausted, physically, mentally and spiritually, but his work was never done. Jack wouldn't rest until he was sure everything was under control. He hated losing control...

"I can keep an eye on him if you want"
Boone proposed as he took a step closer.

Jack considered it for a moment. Ethan wasn't in any condition to fight and Boone wasn't in any condition to fight back. There was less than no chance of something going wrong.
"You need to rest, too. You need to heal," Jack stated.
He could tell Boone wasn't going to let up, but he planned on protesting at least a little bit more.

"I've been resting for more than a week now..I think I can manage to look over him"
Boone was annoyed now. He wanted to help, do something that would help. He had been laying down for about two weeks now and it was enough.

Jack sighed and finally gave in.
"Okay, but if anything happens. If he starts having trouble breathing, if there's anything wrong at all, wake me up. I'll be just over there," Jack said.
He pointed over his shoulder to the back of the caves where there were a few spare airplane seats hanging out. He looked down at Ethan one more time and spoke as he quickly re-examined him.
"Finish drinking that tea and then I want you to get some sleep so you can get your strength up. I don't want you walking around anywhere just yet," Jack instructed.
He then stood up and walked off towards the back of the caves to catch some sleep. Only when his body hit the seat did he realize just how exhausted he really was. Jack closed his eyes and was asleep within minutes.
((still around, Jack's just passed out LOL if you need him, wake him up!))

A few hours later, after Ethan had drunk the tea, he woke up and found that it was light. He could hear the ocean not too far away, and smell something cooking. He sat up, wincing slightly, and saw Locke and Sayid standing next to a fire, something like a hog roasting.
"Smells good." Ethan replied.
Sayid and LOcke both looked over at him, startled to see him awake, but both smiled faintly.
"My specialty." Locke replied, pointing to the hog.
Ethan chuckled, coughing loudly.
Sayid frowned. "Do you feel good?"
Ethan nodded. "I feel like I've been tossed around a bit, but other than that, I'm fine."
Sayid nodded, then sighed. "I'm going to find Sawyer. I need him to do something for me." he replied and walked off.
Charlie was in the jungle.
Searching.
Listening.
Aware of his surroundings.
He had left Claire sometime during the night and hadn't come back. He was searching for Ethan's grave.
He was going to dig it up.

Shannon was startled as Sayid walked by. "Hey are you okay?" She asked, standing up.

((o.O Oh, Charlie...))
Jack was roused a few hours later by the sounds of conversation drifting through the caves. He sat up and looked around. Locke and Ethan were sitting by the fire with Boone sitting opposite them still looking edgy. Jack stood and walked over to the group.
"Good morning everyone, something smells good. How are you feeling, Ethan? Locke? Where did Sayid go?" Jack asked in rapid fire succession.
He looked around the cave to see if there was anyone else hiding in the shadows.

Sayid turned to Shannon, smiling. "Hello . . .I'm fine, I'm going to find Sawyer." He licked his lips and ran his fingers through his long black hair and then turned back to Shannon. "Walk with me?" He asked.
Locke smiled at Jack. "Sayid is fine. He's with Shannon now." He said, nodding his head over to the two. "Ethan . . .well . . he's Ethan, right buddy?"
Ethan chuckled. "With the great hospitality Mr. Locke here has shown me . . .I'm more than fine." He said. He gave a slight burp and blushed crimson. "Excuse me."

((I don't know why that last post made me laugh so hard! I think it's the whole Ethan thing going to my head...))
Jack smiled and sat down next to the group at the fire. He took out a water bottle and took a drink before turning to face Ethan. The man looked much better this morning than he had the night before. Jack looked at him scrutinizingly.
"Let me change that bandage. I don't want you developing any kind of an infection," Jack surmised.
He pointed to the bandage covering the wound Jack had pierced into Ethan's side the night before. It hadn't been easy, in all honesty. Jack pulled out a bottle of alcohol and a spare bandage from his backpack, waiting for Ethan to comply.
((I just realized that all guys named Ethan are creepy. The one on Lost, the guy in my grade 7 glass... ::shudder:: That's just strange.))

Shannon smiled. "Sure.." She walked over beside him as they started their trek to the beach. "May I ask why your looking for Sawyer?" Shannon raised an eyebrow.

Sayid smiled. "Sawyer needs to keep an eye on Charlie for me. I don't want Charlie getting nuts again." He pointed to his gunshot wound and sighed.
Ethan shook his head at Jack. "No. It's fine." He replied. He scooted away some, but he smiled nontheless.
Locke frowned, but didn't say anything. "Well, I'm going to go on a walk." He replied. He turned to Boone. "Boone, do you want to come with me?" He wasn't really a question, but hopful speaking.
(I got to go)
