The frustration and despair were gone. His features had softened and his gaze has warmed as he spoke to her now. When they slipped into this companionable mode with ease as if they'd known each other for years, it was easy to forget about boundaries. Boundaries such as maintaining physical contact longer than necessary or standing a little closer than the general social norms.
Kate released his hand and took a step back with a fleeting look of apology before speaking in a casual, professional manner as she put her walls back up. "Sure, I was actually planning to take a trip up to refill the water bottles and drop off some fruit." She turned and started toward the food supply shelves, tucking her hands in her pockets as she updated him on the food situation while they walked. "I managed to find some trees that hadn't been picked clean yet. Locke doesn't seem to be having much luck on the hunting front, but we've got a steady supply of fish."

"Sure, I was actually planning to take a trip up to refill the water bottles and drop off some fruit."
Jack agreed with a nod of his chin as he trailed behind Kate. He peered downwards to follow the temporary molds that her feet made in the sand as they made their way towards the shelves that held their food supply.
"I managed to find some trees that hadn't been picked clean yet. Locke doesn't seem to be having much luck on the hunting front, but we've got a steady supply of fish."
"Good, we're gonna need every bit of food that we can gather," Jack said, a slither of anxiety panging in his tone as his fear of the dwindling food supply grew. There were so many of them, and the resources were beginning to grow rather slim, save of what they already could savor, "So you've spoken with Locke lately? I haven't seen him around much, but I figured he's probably busy out there hunting down what he can for everyone." Jack asked. Sure what Claire had been experiencing was not uncommon, but if there truly was something strange going on amongst their crew, he wondered if the hunter had seen anything amongst his jungle galivants.

And there was that worry sneaking into his tone and on his features again. Kate was sorry that her update on the food situation had been the cause to put it back there.
"He is. It's his strength, so he's dedicating a lot of his time to it," she reassured, pausing at the makeshift food shelving unit to start placing fruit and empty bottles into a backpack. "I don't get to talk to him much. He spends most of daylight in there," she nodded toward the jungle, "and I've been keeping busy with my spider-monkey strength." She glanced at him as she zipped up the backpack, grinning in amusement over the callback to what Jack had called her when they'd gone fruit gathering together.

"I don't get to talk to him much. He spends most of daylight in there," "and I've been keeping busy with my spider-monkey strength."
Jack listened to Kate as he helped her along with packing up the essentials that she appeared to make a priority to pack. He grinned, chuckling lightly at her remark of keeping busy as it brought back the memory of picking fruit together. It was those easy moments with her that allowed him to escape the terror they had experienced, and the uncertainty that they all faced together. His hand glided over a single fruit of papaya - the very same one Kate had also reached for. He paused for a moment before taking it off of the ledge it sat upon and gently gestured it towards her as he locked a soft gaze with hers, "You do a lot for everyone around here. I - we appreciate you, Kate. Don't know where I would be without you. Probably curled up in a ball in the jungle somewhere." Jack smiled as he offered the piece of fruit to her.
