They had left the mountain without him. Chris had let himself leave Josh back in the world of nightmares and it felt terrible. He should have gone looking for his friend. That’s what best friends do. They don’t leave each other and then ask questions to clearly hurt the other. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry about--- everything. Leaving you in the mines, calling you a maniac and... probably worse. Being there so you could drink that evening. I’m so sorry. I never meant to---”

His time alone in the mines was the last thing Josh wanted to think about, let alone discuss with anyone, but this was Chris and he’d do just about anything he asked now in hopes of making things better. “Rangers found me,” he said after a pause, licking over his lips. “I almost starved. If they hadn’t gotten there when they did…” he trailed off. Chris didn’t need to hear about that. At the mention of Sam, Josh’s eyes snapped up to Chris’ and he sighed. “I don’t have a good reason. She wasn’t part of the plan. Things changed. I wasn’t in my right mind and I just wanted everyone to hurt like me…”

“--- it’s, like, the best rank in League of Legends. Diamond I. But more than a simple walk, totally. I can manage that. As long as you promise to catch me if I fall. And if I break something, you must carry me bridal style all the way to a hospital. I promise, I’ll do the same if you break something during our game.”

“Oh, whatever. And I don’t even know what the hell that means. Diamond what? Okay, sure, but that also depends on who you ask. Because I don’t think that’s how the whole outside/inside dynamic works. It’s going to be more than a simple walk around a house, mind you. But a deal is a deal, if you promise to keep your end of it. Sounds good to me.”

“Reputation? Please. You’re not famous, people don’t care about you. All you're doing is making this worse for yourself.”

“Well I’m not like you. I’m not going to sit back and do nothing while my reputation is slowly descending to nothing.”

“Depends on who you ask, little climber. Some people would say that being Diamond I in League of Legends is far better than being able to get to the top of a tilting surface or walking in the wild, wild wilderness. But sure, it’s a deal. We’ll walk for 40 minutes or hike or move outside a house and then you’ll play LoL with me. Great deal.”

“You’ve stood a chance in more than a couple of hours. Hey, hey. I take that as an offense, okay. And I’m pretty sure being able to withstand nature is far more impressive then some stupid game title. But if you are willing to make that trade…. I think I’ll take your word for it, buddy boy.”

“I’d high five you, but I’m not sure the timing is right. But I totally agree with you. It doesn’t help anyone stay focused on what happened. We can’t change anything that happened that night and it could have gone a lot worse. We should just --- try to look at the bright side and move on.”

“I mean, I could be sad about it all day, but it happened. And we all have to accept it and move on- how hard that even may be. Well, it’s good to hear you’re at least doing better. I don’t think anyone could go away unharmed physical, emotional or mental, it really did scar my life, but like I said earlier- I should move on.”

"As if I stand a chance out in the wilderness in forty minutes. And please, you wouldn’t even have to play against me. We could play together on a team with three other losers. I’d even create a smurf account to get it down on your level, hiker girl.”

“Nerd. And that explains why I haven’t even tried it for myself. It is just that so much more exciting. Now you see, you can’t just get a girl’s hopes up like that, because you know that I wouldn’t even stand a small chance against a nerd like you.”

"You're hurting my feelings --- I’m not a nerd. It’s a quality game. A classic. One you could never grow tired of. It would be torture, you’re right. I’ll go on a long ass, roughly forty minutes walk with you if you let me put you through a game of League.”

“Such a nerd. It’s called being a valuable part of society. Or something like that. But if you are oh so content with that. I would force all of you to go on a hike with me or the like, but that would be torture.”

"Why have air when you could have perfect LAN-connection and play League of Legends in a dark room, not caring about anything else? And then we can leave the nature to you, hardcore climber girl.”

“You do have a point… but still. Fresh air. Does that ring a bell to you? And uh huh, sure you’re not. Guess not everybody is built as hardcore as I am.”

"Yes, but you know what’s also beautiful? That you can watch nature --- inside. And I’m not clumsy. Nature just hates me. I'm not build to be... naturing.”

“Nature is beautiful. I’m sure you can deal without internet for five seconds and tripping over something? That’s because you’re clumsy, Chris.”

“Nature sucks. It’s filled with insects, bad internet connection and chances to trip over and fall. Which sucks.”

“It’s weird… like I almost forgot how nice it was to kick back and enjoy nature. That’s a lie. But, this whole ‘living to see after dawn’ thing? I like this idea.”

Back at the mountain, he had been more than willing to shout at the other, but now? Not even the slightest. Josh deserved being shouted at. Or well, maybe not. Chris didn’t even know what was right to do in this anymore. “How did you get out?” Maybe questions would work. And getting answers seemed like a perfect way to move on. Solid plan, Chris. Solid plan. “And why her? Why Sam? Sam of all people didn’t deserve any of this.”

“I… fuck.” Josh didn’t know what to do, what to say. Here Chris was, pleading with him not to die on him again. It made him feel like the biggest asshole in the world. To his more than slightly off-kilter mind, his prank hadn’t seemed all that serious. Honestly, he could find ten videos on the internet right that were a hundred times worse. It never really occurred to him just what it would do to his best friend, though. He never considered the lasting effects.

"Thank you, Sam. For listening and--- stuff. Do you, um.... would you like a cup of hot chocolate? Coffee? Tea? Anything that has nothing to do with Mount Washington?”

“No, no. It’s completely fine. Really. No hard feelings or anything like that, pal. And I totally get it. When you put it that way, I would prefer not knowing too.  Ashley… she’s been through way too much and at the end of the day, I know you’re just trying to do your best for anyone’s sake anyways.”
