Carlos was sat in a room with people he had never met and in a apart of the isle that he had never been. Carlos could feel a sense of uneasiness growing in the pit of his stomach. Being on the isle, and not knowing somebody was dangerous, it could lead to two things death or serious injure. This means that Carlos didn't trust the girls in any way. So when the girl with bright blue hair moved to touch Carlos he moved away. Mal noticed this and moved to help Evie, which caused the young boy to move away from them. Jay noticed what his friends were doing and started to help them causing Carlos to shrink further into himself.
"Go away!" Carlos said in a small voice, trying to move away from them.
"We want to help you?" said Evie holding out her hand to Carlos. Carlos shock his head and tried to run away from Evie. the uneasy feeling way growing in Carlos stomach.
"Why should I trust you?" asked Carlos.
"Because Evie, helps us all the time and we all want to help you."
"I do. I want to know that you are alright." said Evie, offering Carlos her hand. Carlos shakily took her hand. Evie guided the shaking young teen over to the bed. "Let me have a look." Carlos slowly took his jacket off and held his bleeding rm out to Evie. Who gently took it, and wiped a damp cloth over the top of it.
"Looks like you have it worse than us," said Mal indicating to Carlos' arm.
"You diffidently have it worse than us?" said Jay, putting his arm gently on Carlos' shoulders. Carlos didn't pull away from the comfort that they were offering. Evie noticed that he didnt pull away from the comfort they were offering. Evie looked closer into Carlos' eye and noticed that he was crying.
"When ever you have a bad day, come up here and we will help you." said Evie, not taking her eyes of the crying teen.
"We can be friends, so welcome to our gang." said Mal putting her hand on his shoulder.
"Thank you," said Carlos, "It means alot for you guys to care."
"No problem." Mal said, giving Carlos back his jacket, "Nice jacket by the way."
"Thank you, but I really have to go." said Carlos, "My mum will beat me really hard if I am not back in time to do my chores."
Carlos got up and left the room. Mal, Evie and Jay watched Carlos almost run out of the room. This made the other VKs worry about him a lot. Carlos didn't want the others to worry about him because when you have somebody that worries about you, it means you are weak. Carlos didn't want to be consider weak, in a place where weakness could get you killed.
