Angel stared at his hand for a minute; she couldn’t really talk well enough to protest. And if he was going to try anything it would have to be after she was out of the dumpster, and then she would have more room to struggle and move if she had to make a get away…

‘I’ll take a risk…’ She thought bravely before standing up slightly and taking his hand gingerly. Her hands small, course and dirty, covered with cuts and trembled like the rest of her did.

Darrin took her hand firmly and went ahead to assisting her out of the dumpster. He gave her a once mover, practically wincing when he saw the knicks and other wounds on her body. He began to wonder to himself if he'd found himself one of the many runaways teh town had to offer.

"Are you alright? You look all kinds of scuffed up." He said, eying her still.

Angel nodded without a sound, looking down at her feet and fidgeting anxiously. She didn’t like to be seen much more then she cared for interaction, she felt dirty and ugly. And growing up, before the divorce, her Mother always made sure her children were presentable. So she also felt like, though her Mother wasn’t present, that she was an embarrassment to her Mother.

"You okay though?" Darrin asked, offering Angel the sweater now.

Angel just nodded more, backing up slightly, still afraid. She brought her hands up though when he offered the sweater, shaking her head at it. “I-I’ll…Get-it dirty…” She choked out.

"That's alright, I can wash it later." Darrin assured with a nod.

“I-It’s okay,” Her voice cracked and she coughed to try and clear it. “I don’t…I don’t need it…” She said.

"Alright, but if you don't need the sweater, can I get you something to drink? Maybe something to eat?" Darrin asked as he took note of the girl's slim physique.

Her eyes lit up slightly, nothing sounded better right now then a nice, FRESH, plate of food. But she couldn’t have that from a stranger, or anybody. She would feel as though she owed him something. Despite her trembling and petite frame, and her water mouth, she shook her head refusing the offer.

"C'mon, please? Your throat sounded scratchy, let me at least get you a drink or something." Darrin persisted, thoroughly convinced by the girls appearance and anti-social behavior that she WAS one of the homeless so famous in Fort Morgan.

“N-no, no…I-I’ll be alright…Tha-Thank you.” She coughed out, wrapping her arms around herself for security.

"Please?" Darrin asked one last time, a pleading look in his eyes as he looked at the girl.

Angel bit at her lip, uncertain. She didn’t want it, she just wanted to crawl away with her tail between her legs like she always did. But there was something about this man that despite her being so untrusting, she was willing to take the risk of getting hurt again.

“Fine…” She managed out.

"Alright, ah, do you want to go in or do you want me to bring it out? It doesn't matter, whichever you want." Darrin said, hoping to bring the girl's uncertainties, which were clearly written upon her face, to a rest.

“Can I-Stay here?” She asked.
