He couldn’t help but laugh at her, it was odd how she seemed to care what he thought, simply because they had something in common. A plane crash, he sat up and brought his knees half ay up to his chest, as he rested his elbows on his knees in a way his arms hung in front of him. As he stared at her, he brought one of his hands up to his eyes to shield them from the sun, ”That’s an easy one, Mel” he said, mocking a 10 year old in school, ”You don’t mind if I call you Mel, do you?” he added back in his normal voice, ”Right now, I’m going to focus on surviving this damn place. Just because I don’t want to help you make a bon fire, doesn’t mean I don’t want to be saved” he said with a smile and then stood up.
He placed his hand in his pocket, while the other one held a t-shirt he had pulled out of the suitcase. It was a T-shirt his size, he could only guess it belonged to the husband/boyfriend/brother/father of whoever owned the suit case he was rummaging through. As he stood staring down at Melinda he lifted his shirt over his head as he fixed the shirt in his hands to slip it on over his head. His own shirt he tossed next to Melinda, ”Maybe you can burn that” he said as he put the other shirt on

Melinda just stood there unable to comprehend what Nathan was saying to her, She could understand his reluctance of they had literally just came conscious but it had been a couple minutes and a while for her anyhow. She sighed at him, she didn't want anything to happen to him either but if really didn't want to go with her there was little she could do about it.
When he called her Mel, she noticed he even asked after-wards if he could call her 'Mel' she smiled back at him and told him "Yeah sure, everyone usually calls me Mellie but Mel is fine". Mel huffed at Nathan's comment about the 'bon fire' she was a little crabby and annoyed so she spat back at him "Bon fire? I suggested we moved someplace more open so rescue can actually see us, where we're pretty much covered but you clearly want to stay here to rot, if that's your deal then fine, but I'm staying with you" she told him although she was almost yelling now.
Taking a deep breath, she apologized to him "I'm sorry, but I have to go and see for myself, rescue is coming" she told him still believing the rescue team would be coming for them, not ready to believe anything else just yet anyhow. She hoped Nathan wasn't too mad with her, she shot him a smile and said "I'll come back for you Nate, when rescues here" as she turned herself away from him to walk away.

He couldn’t help but crack a smile a her yelling at him, she was so bent on being rescued…okay well perhaps that was a good reason to get upset, but she was so bent on getting him rescued, after assuming he didn’t want to be rescued perhaps, it was odd…or perhaps not, either way he was smiling in amusement as she disproved his bon fire theory. ”It’s okay,” he said nodding and then shrugging, ”It’s bad enough I’m stranded on this god forsaken island, now I have you yelling at me” he said, with a hint of seriousness, but was actually joking. But by this time she had already said her goodbye and was turning to walk away, in search of a rescue party…which was obviously not here yet, if it was ever going to arrive.
It did come across to Nate that he was being somewhat of a depressing survivor, but he was okay with that. As she walked off, Nate sighed and followed her, catching up with her rather quickly and walking next to her, and turning to look at her as he walked by her, ”Hey” he said as if meeting her for the first time, and smiled, ”I’m coming along only because I’m interested in what you’re going to do…” he said with a laugh and a smile as he placed his hands in his pockets and looked before him, ”This’ll be fun”
