*laughs* hell fucking no, dude

*he
wakes up, almost jolting upright, shoving Carlos’ hands away and
pushing himself back* n-no! *fear and panic clear on his til he slowly
realizes where he is*

*Carlos blinks at the kid, surprised, but he relaxes
slightly.* Hey, it’s okay. You’re okay… how are you feeling?

… *he brings his knees to his chest, looking upset* i feel like shyt… where are we?

At the nurse’s cabin. I’m gonna call an ambulance – unless you’re
feeling okay enough for me to drive you to the hospital?

*his eyes widen* h-hospital ? nononono no hospitals! *he scoots back on the bed*

*blinks* Max, buddy, you’re obviously deathly ill. And for
some asinine reason you had alcohol. You
have to be checked over.

for the l-last time, I. AM. DEAD! look- *he pulls off the bandages on his neck, showing off a large scar* see? and that was just one of the time i’ve died…

*sputters, shocked at the sight. He felt a little sick too*
Jesus – what the hell happened??

*he chuckles slightly* what? never seen a scar like this before?… but it’s pretty obvious what happened… *he began re-wrapping his neck* but i don’t really care about it anymore… 

You… you’re not supposed to be alive. I – no offense meant,
really, but… how?

Carlos blinked at her. But he reached out and
offered the needle and thread. “If you want to, yeah,” he said softly.

She gives him a little smile then carefully threads the needle for him after a couple failed attempts. She hands it back to him and settles back down, waiting for him to get started. 

Carlos took the needle. He sighed, looking at the raider’s weeping
wound. Carlos then took another deep breath and flexed his fingers. “Okay…” he
said softly. “Um… okay. Let’s see about going about this…”

Slowly he reached out and touched her skin just beside her
wound.

Huh. You know, I had an affinity for blue hoodies when I was your age.

Oh. Who are you and why are you talking to me?

//lol chill max//

David: okay…oh god…I’m a horrible counselor…I can’t even tell when one of my kids is upset…depressed, even…

No, son, no, you’re not horrible. You’re, what…
in your twenties? It’s okay. And Max didn’t want anyone to realize he was… so
upset. It’s not our fault, David.

David: I’m going to go see him. Even if he’s asleep, I just wanna look at him…

Sure. *turns to open the door for David. Gives
him a small smile and steps aside so he could go in first.*

David: *he gasps when he sees the small form of max, looking even smaller among the tubes and machines* oh max…

Max: *stirs and wakes up* d-David?

*shuts the door behind them gently* Hey buddy.
I gave him a call – I hope that’s okay.

*he reaches out his arms* d-David.

David: *walks over and hugs the child gently*

*stands at the foot of the bed, just watching
them hug it out*

David: max…I’m so sorry…

David…I did this…David…it’s all my fault…I scared everyone…I tried to…kill myself…

We got you out of the water and to the
hospital in time – that’s what’s important right now. The other kids will be
glad to know that you’re okay. *frowns* I… broke one of your ribs, Max, and
cracked a couple others. I’m sorry about that – I wish it was avoidable.

David:
*calms down* you’re right, you’re right, I’m sorry. So, is there a
specific reason he attempted suicide? Or should I wait for him to tell
me himself…

There is a reason. And yeah, he needs to tell
someone. Though I warned him you might call CPS or something after he’s told
you… because of your job.

David: oh no…

*nods sadly* Yeah… Suffice to say, it’s pretty
bad. He’s going to down-play it, but – as a father myself – I find his
situation unacceptable. But he needs to talk about it so that he can see others’
reactions and understand that it’s not right. *sighs* I’m sorry – this is just
a bunch of stuff to drop on you.

*david rushes to the hospital*

*he is waiting outside Max’s room so that when
David arrives he won’t be woken again right away*

David: is he okay?! Oh my god I could never forgive myself if something happened to him! How did this happen anyway?!

He’s fine. He’s able to wake up on his own, I
just told him to take a little nap. *sighs* I didn’t get the chance to
introduce myself. I’m Angela’s father – I’m camped nearby studying the volcano.

David: please, can you tell me how this happened? I need to know if the lake is unsafe so I can decide if I need to close it or not

*sighs again* The lake is fine. But… Max
cannot swim. Don’t let him tell you he can – it’s a lie. You need to watch him
and keep him away from it.

David: oh no! Don’t worry, I will! Wait, what were you guys doing by the lake anyway? Did max fall in?

He… he ran off from me. I came over to see my
daughter – and meet her counselors – and I met him. He… we got to talking, but
we… we somehow got onto some touchy subjects. He’s… having issues. Many issues, I’m afraid. We… we went to
find you because there are things that he wanted to tell you and… he suddenly
ran off and jumped in the lake.

David: ohmygosh! I…I can’t believe I didn’t know…so…he tried to…kill himself? This was a suicide attempt? *david is becoming more frantic*

David, calm down, please. Don’t shout it out
here – Max doesn’t want more people than necessary to know. He doesn’t want anyone to know, but… well, it’s too late
for that.

*max convulses again* so…so cold…

*just rubs his shoulder.* Hang on, bud, they’re
coming. You’ll be fine. *looks at the other kids* Get out of the way so they
can park! Go to the mess hall or something!

Help…what…what was I…thinking…? I…didn’t want…this…I just wanted…it all…to stop…hurting…where’s pres…preston…? I want to…*he coughs violently* say…goodbye…

No no, buddy, you’re not going anywhere. EMTs
are coming to help!

*there was shuffling on the grass and Carlos
looked up to see the EMTs coming for them. They get to work and he tells them
what happened. There were no questions about suicide – no mention. Just work to
help Max and getting him stabilized.*

*max loses consciousness* nnn…

*things finally calmed down. They were at the
hospital. Carlos was sitting in a chair in Max’ room, tired and upset, but
ultimately relieved. This could have been really bad, and it was scary.*

((up to you if david is there too

*max stirs, waking up* I’m…sorry…

*looks up, shocked to hear Max’ voice. Gets up
from his chair and hurries over* Max – Max, hey! Hey, buddy, it’s okay. How are
you feeling?

Awful…I made everyone worry…I…hurt people…I only wanted to…hurt myself…I didn’t think…I didn’t want…*a few tears drip down his cheeks*

Shh… Hey, hey, hey, Max – it’s okay. You’re
safe now. You scared some people yeah, but you’re safe now.

They…probably hate…me…I can’t…do this…it hurts to…to live…

Shh… Max, just relax. Go to sleep. You’ve had
a really bad day. You need to rest, okay?

I…okay…*max closes his eyes and just passes out*

*sighs and can’t help but reach out and pat
the kid’s fluffy hair. He takes out his phone to call David and let him know he
woke up*
