Was it something i said or done?

It was an average day for Carmen, Today was the first day of summer holidays and she had just finished year 11 and was going on holiday with her best friend Aaliyah. "COME ON CARMEN WERE GOING TO BE LATE FOR THE AIRPLANE!" Her best friend shouted which caused the brunette girl to arise from her couch and put her shoes on.

They arrived at the airport and their plane was in 3 minutes. "PASSENGERS BOARDING FLIGHT 526 TO BARCELONA PLEASE BORD NOW." The speakers announced as Carmen and Aaliyah got up. "Guess that's us." Aaliyah said as she dragged her suitcase. "Barcelona here we come!" Carmen said as they sat down on their seats.

Carmens POV
Me and Aaliyah were on our way for Barcelona.
Aaliyah was basically my sister, ever since her parents split and moved across the country when she was in year 10 she had deduced to move in with my family. Most people think my family is all happy and what not but in reality it's not what you call a home. It's just a house it didn't have that loving feeling. My parents fought everyday. My mum and dad had been the ones who booked this flight which was a bit weird but I'm not complaining.

We arrived in Barcelona and took a cab to our hotel. "Finally our holiday starts here, but for our first day we have to go to the club!" Aaliyah said placing her bags on her bed. Aaliyah had always been the outgoing friend but I was to shy to not accept. "Sure let's go now," I faked smiled bring out a dress from my suitcase.
It was a black dress up to my mid thigh with my collar bone showing.

We had arrived at the club and immediately I was left on my own as Aaliyah had found a boy and she gave him a lap dance. I sat myself at the bar and ordered a coke as I didn't drink as I was to young. I hadn't noticed a brunette boy had sat down next to me. "Hola." The boy said turning his stool towards me. "Hola no hablo español ." I said in the worst accent possible.
"Hello I'm Pablo!" He said with his strong Spanish accent. "Hello I'm Carmen!" I replied shaking his hand. Usually I don't speak to people much but I was all by myself so it was nice to have some company. "You not drinking?" He asked with his water in hand. "Nope to young." I replied before I spoke again, "you not drinking either?"
"Nope to young I'm only 18."
"Same, you live here or what I'm only here on vacation with my friend."
"I live here also where's your friend?"
"Giving a guy a lap dance so she left me by myself, oh that's her calling me got to go nice talking bye pablo!"
"Bye Carmen!"
I returned to Aaliyah and we went back in the cab. "Sooo who's the boy?" She asked me
"I could ask you the same, but I was just speaking to him I don't really know him apart from his name." I smiled at the thought of the boy. "So what's his name?" She asked me snapping me out of my trance. "Pablo is his name." I replied. "Sexy name." She winked as we arrived at our hotel room. "Well I'm heading to sleep night liyah." I said getting into bed and turning of the bed lamp. "Night Carmen." She smiled.

It was now our 5th day on this holiday and I've been trying to call my parents but there not picking up. Spain is also a very beautiful place and there beaches are way better then the ones in England. Because my parents are Spanish I understand it fluently but I can't speak much.

Today I was going beach by myself as Aaliyah was meeting up with the boy from the club.
I had packed a bag with essentials and I had my swim suit under a floral dress. I had gotten onto the train and arrived at the beach. It was empty apart from 4 boys playing volleyball shirtless. I had placed my bag down and put my towel down. I removed my floral dress and started walking towards the water, but that's when the volleyball comes flying towards me.

I quickly turn and bounce the ball off my chest and start doing kick ups then volleyed the ball back to the boys. "COME PLAY!" One of the darker boys shouted. "Uhmm-" I said before I got cut off "CARMEN?" A brunette boy shouted, I turned back and saw who it was. "PABLO?" I replied walking over. "hey Carmen these are my friends, Alejandro, Pedri and Ansu." He pointed at each of the boys. "Hello I'm Carmen." I said shaking all of the boys hands. "Care to join?" Pedri said. I nodded and teamed up with Pablo against Pedri Ansu and Alejandro.

The game ended and I had also gotten to know the boys a bit more like how they were all professional footballers, but not much about Pablo. We had all gone for a swim, and I was floating looking up at the sky.

PABLOS POV
Carmen had been getting along well with all of the boys but I was to scared to open up. "Yo Pablo?" Pedri said snapping me out of my trance. "Why haven't you told Carmen anything about yourself?" He asked me
"Just leave me alone!" I shouted but not to loudly and ran off back to the house as it was only a 3 minute walk.

CARMENS POV
I was about to go over to speak to Pablo when he stormed off, the whole day he seemed distant like he didn't like me or even wanted to be friends. I'm used to people separating themselves but when he does it I feel. Sad?
He has this sort of effect on me.
