~That's How You Get The Girl~

"If you guys never would have brought him here this would have never happend. What were you thinking?!" Mal exclaimed, looking down at her friends as they stood in their old hangout spot.

"He was gonna come with or without us. We just wanted to protect him." Evie said while she waved her arms in the air.

"Yeah, and we compleately blew it, guys." Carlos reminded which made Jay rais his voice to what he said.

"Guys!" Taylor yelled before an argument broke out. What are wo going to do?"

"We are not doing anything." Mal said. "This is between Uma and me. She's a punk, and guess what? Now I have to go get him."

"Woah, woah, woah. Mal, you're still gonna have to get through Harry Hook, and his whar rats." Carlos reminded her as he stepped forward.

"Yeah, you're gonna need us." Jay followed up.

Mal rolled her eyes before speaking, "Uma said to come alone."

"Mal, come on-" Evie said before being cut off by Carlos.

Taylor sighed and shook her head, "She said to come alone. If we all go with Mal then she'll freak and torture Ben. I'm not leaving." The girl said as she sat sat down on the couch.

"We'll be here when you get back," Jay reasured Mal.

Mal looked at all her friends before turning around on her heel, walking out of the room. One at a time, they each took a seat on either a chair or a couch, thinking to themselves. They all hoped that Mal came back with some sort of good news.

They've only waited for about 5 minutes and Taylor was already starting to worry. She quietly walked into another room where the others wouldn't be able to see her in panic mode. However, one particular friend had and is always able to sense when Taylor doesn't feel or seem right.

"T, you doing alright?" Carlos said startaling the girl a she paced back and forth around the dark blue colored room.

"Totally. Not like I'm panicking because Ben is with Uma and her pirates have him and we don't know if and when we're going to get him back." Taylor said as quick as she could which Carlos could tell that she was spiraling.
He stepped forward towards her and grabed her hand in his as he guided himself and her to one of the closist sitting areas which was a blue bed which had been Taylors when they were all still living on the Island a few months ago.

"Taylor, you're worried and I understand that. It's okay to be feeling this way. But, I know you too well to know that you're not just worried about Ben. What's going on?"

That was her cue, her breaking point. The walls had finally crashed down. She broke down in Carlos' arms as he held her close to him. "I'm sorry," was all she was able to choke out in between her quiet sobs. Carlos lifted her by her chin and wiped her tear stained cheek with his thumb.

"Taylor, you shouldn't need to be apologizing. Look, you are an amazing girl with amazing potential on life. If this is about trying to get other people to like you then you shouldn't need to change yourself just because of what other people think about you. You're perfect just the way you are. One day you're going to see youself how we all see you." Carlos explained to her as she started to calm down. Her eyed flickered from his eyes to his lips. She got out from his grip and wiped under her eyes.

She heared foot steps coming from behind Carlos, but farther then the two. She saw a shadow of a boy before her revealed himself along with 2 other friends.

"Oh my god!"
