"But it’s the most wonderful experience anyone could ever want. That night I was so excited me and my crew went out and got drunk.. Um I think I slept with two of my Female dancers.” blushes, “I never drank like that again.”
"Um, okay," Gwen nodded slowly. "So was this your first tour of Australia? What other countries have you been to?"

"Canada, UK, I preformed for the Troops, and the USA.” Jasmine smiled, she had been everywhere. And now she was heading back home, well was. “I can guess you’ve been practically everywhere.” Jasmine smiled.

“I can guess you’ve been practically everywhere.”
She tilted her head. "No, not really," she answered. "When I first started, it was mostly domestic flights. Taking any shift I could get. Then I worked my way up to the Pacific Rim rotation--Tokyo, Singapore, Sydney. Grew up in England, spent some summers in Spain," she elaborated. "And my sister and I did the requisite European tour after she graduated from school. Back when we were on speaking terms."

"Eh i was the only child, up until my father Recently married. now i have two little sisters and a brother, 7,4,2." Jasmine sighed she missed them thou. They could always place a smile on her face, they were the only family she still cared about deeply and truly.
"I'm sure there worried about you, i mean tragedy makes people do the crazy. Miss those they thought they never would." Jasmine drank more in her cup and she realized she better slow down. "I mean, i'm sure my creep of a ex, well he will be once we all get out of here. is worried about me, did i tell you? That little jerk was suppose to come to meet my family and work calls. The little asshole decided he rather work than meet my family." Jasmine felt like she wanted to break something, but realized that wouldn't be a good idea in a small tent like this.

"Well, some people are just sort of...wired that way. I can count on work; I can't count on my family," she stated, taking another long drink. "Not after this past year. We just...needed time and space. And looks like I've gotten both." She flailed her arms outward in a sweeping gesture. "Whether I wanted it or not."
"So..." she began, pointing at Jinx with glass in hand, "You're saying Beau's already inspired you to kick jerk asshole ex to the curb? Perhaps I've underestimated him..."

Jinx "So... You're saying Beau's already inspired you to kick jerk asshole ex to the curb? Perhaps I've underestimated him..." Jasmine looked at Gwen and shook her head. “God no, when he split from be to work is when I knew I be dumping his ass.” she grinned, “when the plan crashed is when I really thought about it, about how stupid I was. When we were going down I saw everything flash before my eyes. I was scared, I had never been that scared in my life….” Ok that was a lie, there was one other time she was scared. (FLASHBACK pt. 2) coming back to reality she gave a small smiled. “Where was I?” “The wine must be getting to me, eh.” wiping the tears from her eyes, remembering what she had just seen. Well it was all horrible, she sighed and looked at Gwen, this was nice. “God more than I though.” Jasmine felt terrible now and it was now time to forget. Drinking more of the wine she smiled and downed the water bottle before pouring some more in. “You brought me back to the front of the plane and I sat down next to this guy and we talked for a bit, than we all went down.” “What were you doing the time of the crash?” she winked, “besides bringing me back to my seat?”

“What were you doing the time of the crash? Besides bringing me back to my seat?”
"Um..." she furrowed her brow in concentration. "I think I was in the galley when the turbulence hit. I tried to secure all the carts and the cabinets. Something must have hit me..." Her hand went up to the bruise on the side of her head, wincing at the pain still there. "I blacked out. And when I woke up, I found myself in the sand. All around me, it was noise and chaos, but...I knew I had to take care of these people as best I could."
She shrugged and downed some more wine. "I'm sure I'll get over that."

"Ouch," she lifted her shirt a little bit. "at least you didn't get a branch in the gut. I was damn lucky it didn't penetrate anything serious." Jasmine shook her head, that was a painful wound. she was happy it was healing.
"I think it is time for everyone to help, i like to do more. maybe go stick hunter more often." Jasmine winked, "With you and Ethan...unless you like to be aaaalonnne." Jasmine was of course teasing.

"Oh, please. I don't want to be aaaalonnne with anyone," she replied in the same teasing tone. "I think I've already provided the island grapevine with more than enough fuel for gossip."

"Again thats because your Kind and you care about people. Plus you have to be friendly, well i use to have this teacher and she said. 'Remember ladies and Gents, you don't have to be nice to everyone. just civil.' i couldn't stop laughing." Jasmine smiled and Drank some more wine.

"See, that's exactly what it is. I'm being civil," Gwen declared. "I mean, it's not as if I was taking advantage of Ethan's kindness or...or...swallowing my pride and flirting with Sawyer just to get at the alcohol he'd stolen, or losing all power of speech the moment that Sayid smiles at me. Absolutely none of that is true, because I'm an adult. I...I'm an independent woman, and I don't need any of them. Bollocks to them," she grumbled, swallowing some more wine.

Jasmine laughed a little bit, "Hell with all of them than." Jasmine laughed and placed some more wine in her mouth. she wasn't sure how much longer she could pour into a small hole, so she took a nail file she had and made a cup out of both there Water bottles. "If that hole stayed that small, the blankets would be drinking more." Jasmine smiled and drank up.
"And Me and Beau, there is no me and Beau. It was most defiantly a one night thing. That boy is more afraid of commitment that I am.” Jasmine laughed and almost fell over, “its getting hot in here, this is really good wine.” Jasmine laughed and took of her tank top, revealing her baby blue Bra from Victoria secret.

"Hell with all of them than."
"Exactly!" she nodded emphatically. "Honestly, what do these people expect from me? I'm not a...a...miracle worker," she cried in exasperation. Then her expression turned gravely serious. "Listen, I may not be a...a...doctor, or a Naval lieutenant, or a beat cop, or a bassist for a moderately-talented overplayed pop band. But I am proud of what I am. I...am a flight attendant."
She held her haughty posture until Jinx gave her what she took to be a mock impressed look, then burst out laughing. "And I make the whole navy blue and powder blue combination work, thank you very much."
"And Me and Beau, there is no me and Beau. It was most defiantly a one night thing. That boy is more afraid of commitment that I am.”
"Oh, sounds rather like my type then," she remarked, taking a few more gulps. "Except for the whole 'filthy, rude, complete scoundrel' bit." She swirled the wine methodically around in her plastic makeshift glass. "A one-night thing...I can't even imagine."

"Oh, sounds rather like my type then, Except for the whole 'filthy, rude, complete scoundrel' bit." Jasmine sighed, maybe she was right about Beau. I mean he just used him, but she used him too. So that makes her all of those things, well not filthy… was she? She sniffed herself and shook her head, she had taken a bath this morning and she would again tomorrow. "A one-night thing...I can't even imagine.”
“Don’t know it until you tried it, I mean one time you get your fix. And you never have to see him again or her for that matter. Its nice, but now that I have some kind of superstardom. You can’t do that because people use blackmail and that gets you in trouble with your Label.”
“ever get in trouble with your superior?”

“Don’t know it until you tried it, I mean one time you get your fix. And you never have to see him again or her for that matter."
"Yeah, except for that bit about being trapped on an island, and thus having to see that person everyday," she reminded her. "I still don't think I'd do it, though. Not unless I'd had a lot more of this wine. It's just not me."
“ever get in trouble with your superior?”
She raised her eyebrows. "Ooh, very much so," she groaned. "Nearly got myself sacked back at the beginning of the year. This passenger, who basically smelled like a barrel of bourbon after having spent the afternoon in an airport bar, had his flight to Bali canceled because of a storm. So we were doing our best to find another route on our airline or another airline or whatever. Because he had to be there. Absolutely had to be there. A fact which he kept yelling at us, adding in some choice words along the way and wondering how dare we treat him this way. He came around the counter, shoved Stephen aside and when he came after me, I sort of...hit him," she said sheepishly.

Jasmine inclined and poured Gwen some more wine with a smile and a wink. "Allow me to help you with that." And the funny only went on when Jasmine asked Gwen about her getting in trouble.

“So Gwen does got some Swing in her.” Jasmine laughed and pictured if Jasmine had to be dealt with. “Glad you got to me before a few more drink, I would have probably been right down ugly. Might have never gotten to like me on this island.” Jasmine felt better than she had all day.

"Psh, I like you. As long as you're not singing Britney Spears songs at me," she smirked.
"Anyway, I was almost certain I'd be fired on the spot. The man was insisting that I'd broken his jaw and he was going to sue. Come on, I've taken one box aerobics class; I'm hardly Laila Ali," she scoffed. "So they took me off duty, and I had to wait for the higher-ups to decide my fate. It was the longest 24 hours of my life.
"I remember I was sitting in the employee lounge, just staring out at the runway, thinking how much I didn't want to leave. And then Eric brought me a bag of ice for my hand," she smiled. "He mocked me about it, quite a bit, but eventually he convinced that everything would be fine. And for whatever reason, I believed him."

"And look he was right, here you are." Jasmine smiled and faned herself with a notebook that she had, "sitting here getting drunk with me and talking. so those big wigs much have loved you." Jasmine grinned, "And fine no Britney spears tunes."

"And look he was right, here you are."
She nodded. "Yeah, he was right about a lot of things," she remarked. "Of course, I was taken off the Pacific Rim shifts and placed on probation for several months. But eventually they let me back in, which I was grateful for. I would have missed those cab rides back from LAX with Eric."
"And fine no Britney spears tunes."
"Well, I'm just saying you could branch out. No pun intended," she added, referring to the wound in Jinx's side. "A little Sarah McLachlan, some Norah Jones, vintage Destiny's Child..."

"All depends on my mood, i like Sarah, Norah, and Destiny. " Jasmine smiled, "And i knew i drove you away with my singing!" she laughed.
