Please don't let this turn into something it's not
I can only give you everything I've got
I can't be as sorry as you think I should
But I still love you more than anyone else could
It was another long weekend. They seemed to come and never go away, yet when they finally left his mind begged them to come back. By now he was sure they wished they had never given him a Golden Pass. That they would have figured something else out so that he wouldn’t show up there every single weekend. But they did give him a Golden Pass. And he did show up every weekend. And he sat on one of their planes and prayed that it would crash down on that unforgettable island that he desperately wished to return to.
Shaking hands held onto a small glass as he stared out the window into the darkness. If only it wasn’t just him. That he wasn’t the only one who knew that they had made a mistake and that they needed to go back. More than anything in the world, he wished he could get through to Kate. To get her to listen to him and go back to the island with him.
He loved her. She was supposed to have his back. But instead, she turned to Sawyer. The man who could never love her as much as she deserved. Or at least Jack thought that he could love her more than anyone in the entire world. And that maybe she could love him too. Because he needed her.
All that I keep thinking throughout this whole flight
Is it could take my whole damn life to make this right
This splintered mast I'm holding on won't save me long
Because I know fine well that what I did was wrong
He didn’t plan on giving up. If he had to devote every moment of his life to try to convince her to go back with him, then that’s what he would do. It was the only thing that he could do. They had made the biggest mistake of their lives. And in knowing that, Jack was slowly fading away. The wonderful, strong leader was slowly becoming the exact opposite of who he had once been.
Drugs, suicidal thoughts, and Kate were the only things he had left. Well, technically, he didn’t even have Kate. And the other two things weren’t exactly the best things to keep him going.
The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love
Leaning his head against the window, he thought about her. Her on the island. All the memories that they shared that somehow she managed to shove out of her mind.
The time she kissed him kept running through his mind. He could still taste her. He could still feel her hands on his face. He could still feel how wonderful it felt. The most wonderful feeling in the end.
He was sure she felt different though.
We have got through so much worse than this before
What's so different this time that you can't ignore
You say it is much more than just my last mistake
And we should spend some time apart for both our sakes
Everything they had faced together, she managed to just ignore. From the day of the crash until rescue. It was all still so clear in his mind, not fading even the littlest bit. All the good times. The trials that they had to overcome. The times they had messed up but then forgave each other. The times that they had been their for each other even when it would have been so much easier just to walk away.

Everything had changed once they were rescued though. Things had been okay once it got there. But then they left the island and he could almost feel as the life seemed to be sucked out of him. He had messed up. He needed to go back and get rid of Naomi’s people. He needed to go back and take Kate, because he loved her and he had made the biggest mistake of his life by not telling her than on the day that she stitched up his side.

Rescue had taken them back to the real world and they all had gone their separate ways. There had been a small goodbye that Kate had given him, but nothing more. He could barely hear it. She was holding to Sawyer’s arm so she didn’t lose him in the crowd of reporters. She told him that they should just go their separate ways and he tuned out. The last thing he heard was the word “love” before she walked away.
Now he was wondering what it meant. Once the plane had landed, he silently got off, pushing his way past the other passengers who were also trying to exit. Pulling his cell phone out of his pocket, he made his way to his car.
And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness
Please just save me from this darkness
Giving up wasn’t an option. This was fate. This was how it was supposed to be. They were supposed to go back. He dialed her number. It wasn’t the first time and he knew that it wouldn’t be the last. But this was fate. And eventually he knew she would agree with him. That she would go back and everything, including the both of them would be how it was supposed to be.
But until then, he didn’t know what to do. Everyone thought he was a lunatic. His words had no affect on their thoughts. It was like he was talking to brick walls. And until fate finally decided to kick in, that’s how it would always be.
And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness
