A/N: Yeah, I know, I'm sorry. I shoulda updated before now, but just be happy I am. It's really tough when you have school, your mom is studying on the computer, you have to watch siblings, your little siblings use the computer whenever your parents allow them to ((like all the time)), your older sister is on almost all the time that your siblings aren't, school isn't going the best for you, all your friends are mad at you except your best one, and your dad has a fantasy football league and wants to check it everyday and is obsessed with burning concerts onto CD's ((legally)). Yeah, it's kinda hard, but I still apologize, I should have at least posted an Author's note, but I sincerely thank those who still read my fix! I love you guys soooo much, and I really mean that. So I think I owe you an update, so here it is P

"You know man, we probably shouldn't be betting on people's love life," Hurly said as he and Charlie where walking through the jungle trying to find some fruit.

"Since when do you care?" Charlie asked as he stepped over a branch jutting out of the ground.

"Since, well, I started betting on people's love life," He answered seriously, but with a half smile.

"And how exactly will they find out if we don't tell them or anyone else on this island?" Charlie questioned with an accusing look on Hurly.

"I'm not saying that I'll tell them, I'm just worried it might slip if we are around them or something. You know, dude?" He returned whilst pulling a mango from the over brush above him.

"Well then mate, we'll just have to be careful I guess."

Hurly shrugged as he continued to pick the fresh fruits that lye ahead of him. There was a hush between them for about 10 minutes before the trees around them were picked clean.

"Hey dude, I'm kind of hungry, you wanna sit down and have a mango or something?" Hurly interrupted the silence.

"Sure, here looks like a good spot," Charlie replied as he sat on a log and handed him a fruit from his pack.

" Hey man, you hear that?"

Charlie strained his ears before replying, "Yeah, I do. It's Sawyer and Kate coming this way. We gotta hide!"

"How do you know it's Sawyer and Kate?"

"Cause, I see Sawyer, now come on! They're gonna see us!"

"What if it's Sawyer and Ana?"

"Are you insane, what would they be doing in the middle of the jungle? And you're going to ruin our bet and you're going to have to pay my hospital bill! COME ON!"

Hurly didn't budge. "Well, what would Sawyer and Kate be doing?"

"I don't know, mate! Maybe having physical relations with one another. Something Sawyer and Ana wouldn't be able to do without killing each other!"

"And why can Kate and Sawyer do that without hurting someone? Dude, you aren't even giving my couples a chance."

"Fine, Sawyer and Kate or Ana is headed this way and if you don't come now, we're going to be beaten into a bloody pulp!"

"Thank you," Hurly grinned before following Charlie behind a bush. They were just able to make out Sawyer, though they couldn't see the other person. Neither was winning . . . yet.

"I can't hear them, what do you think they are talking about?" Hurly asked Charlie.

"I think Kate's telling him that she loves him and Sawyer id telling her that she is his favorite girl on the island and they are making out . . . about now," Charlie shrugged.

"Really? Well I think the same thing except it's Ana."

"Ana and Kate? Gross!"

"No, Ana and Sawyer!"

Charlie was going to reply when he heard a sound coming toward them.

"Come on man, we gotta go. . . NOW!"

Charlie and Hurly sprang from the bushes and ran all the way to the beach.

"Remind me to never listen to you again, dude,"Hurly panted as they came to the beach.

"Yeah, I'll remember that," Charlie sighed as he held his stomach.

"I swear, I think I'm going to get killed because of you!"

"Isn't it worth it if you get your money?" Charlie grinned.

"Hmm . . . money. . . no death . . . money . . . no death. I think I'll chose no death!" Hurly rolled his eyes.

"Not me man, I'd pick money."

"Dude, you can't take it with you to the grave, so why waste it?"

"At least I can be happy when I dye mate."

"Money can't buy happiness."

"Speak for yourself," Charlie smiled before walking away.

Hurly was left to think about his near experience with death.

A/N: Sorry it was so short, but I got more updates! Please review! Oh and I know who the person was in the jungle, and you'll figure it out later! So 'night!
