I thought I was alone on the path.
How long were you there?
Okay, yeah, I was just, you know, breathing, enjoying being outside, alone, no offense.
Yeah, so were you, did you, did you finish the trail?
Cool.
How's, how's he, how's the sights?
Were they worth it?
Awesome.
Oh, what, oh yeah, um, I wasn't, no, I wasn't planning on walking on the lake.
I know, I know it's deceptive and really, I know it's been warm.
Don't worry, I'll be safe.
Yeah, um, I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep going.
It was nice, um, running into you.
Yeah, I want to finish this with the sun up, so, okay, well, maybe, maybe I'll see you around.
Cool.
Yeah, I, I didn't get a cabin here, but I might be back again.
Yeah, well, um, bye.
Okay, that was, god, fucking, that was such a fucking door.
What did I even say?
Okay, oh, he's fucking never gonna want to see me again, so let's.
Let's keep going.
See the fucking end of this thing.
Well, is this well worth it?
He didn't lie.
I should get going.
Oh fuck, oh fuck.
Okay, okay, okay.
All right, it's okay, it's okay.
I'm.
Oh, that hurts.
Holy shit, okay.
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Oh fuck, okay.
Okay, that's.
Oh, hi, hi again.
I thought you were, I thought you were heading down, but I'm, thank god you're here.
I twisted my ankle a little bit.
I don't, I don't think, I don't think I can walk back.
I'm fine.
Could you help me, please?
I, it, it really fucking hurts.
Thank you.
I would really appreciate that.
Yeah, this one.
Okay, okay, yeah.
Oh, oh, okay.
This, this works.
This is easier than you helping me walk.
You just carry me, that's great.
Yeah, just, just please be careful with that.
Thank you.
So, I thought you were, I thought you were heading, heading back to your cabin.
You, you wanted to see me again.
Why?
Why?
I mean, thank you, but, wow.
How on earth could that leave you wanting to see me again?
And now, now I forced you to carry me back.
Oh god.
Is this a meet-cute?
I think it might be, right?
This is one of those.
You could have just waited for me to make my way back.
You wanted to see me right away.
You're sweet, aren't you?
Yeah, you're sweet.
No, I like it, I like it.
It's nice, it's nice to have sweet sometimes.
If you weren't sweet, I would be hobbling back in the dark.
And I'm probably twist the other ankle, so I'm, I'm very grateful for a sweet right now.
I'm very, very grateful.
And you're warm.
Oh, I was getting pretty chilly.
This is nice.
Almost, almost makes me forget about my ankle.
Almost.
Oh, fuck.
Oh, fuck.
I, I can't drive home.
Like, I cannot drive home.
Fuck.
Oh, shit.
Really?
Uh.
Oh.
Um, sure.
I, that, yeah, please.
I would, that would be, god damn it.
Yes, yes, yes, that'd be so sweet.
Please.
Thank you.
I, yeah, just, I'll, I'll just stay in your cabin until, until I can actually drive.
I'm sure just some ice, some elevation, and a little Thailand all around will, and I'll be ready to drive.
Thank you.
Oh my god.
Oh, fuck.
I made it.
If you weren't here, I would have hobbled back, twisted my other ankle.
And then I wouldn't even be able to drive.
I would have crawled into my car and freeze to death overnight.
It's not funny.
It's not funny.
It's not funny.
Oh my god.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Okay.
Your cabin's close, right?
I might be laughing because it hurts so bad.
Oh my god.
Okay.
I'm gonna shut up.
I'm gonna shut up until we get there.
Let you, let you walk in silence, okay?
I'm quiet.
I'm quiet.
I'm quiet.
Shh.
Okay, I'm quiet.
I'm quiet.
Okay.
Oh.
No, you are warm.
Oh my god.
We are making some pace.
Goodness gracious.
Okay.
Oh.
Is this it?
Oh, thank you.
Okay.
Oh, this place is so cute.
Oh my god.
Is this a rental?
Nice.
Oh.
Yeah, I think, I think if you set me down, I can, I can hobble a little.
Just set me down and you can unlock the door, okay?
It'll be fine.
It'll be fine.
Yeah, I got one good ankle thanks to you.
I'm good.
I'm good.
Don't worry.
Thank you.
Yeah.
I'll just, let me just, I'll just take your arm or something.
You don't have to pick me up again.
It's super not necessary.
Yeah, I'm good.
I'm good.
Oh.
Oh, it is so nice in here.
Oh my gosh.
This is, oh, this is cozy.
Mm.
Mm, this is so much better than out there.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Yes, please.
I, I really need something.
Some ice, some pain meds, if you wouldn't mind.
Is there, is there somewhere I can lay down and elevate?
No, you don't.
I can, I can take like a chair or I can put my leg on the table or something.
Really?
Isn't that weird?
A stranger in your bed?
Okay.
Yeah.
Lead the way then.
Okay.
I'll just need to, oh.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
All right.
I'll just be here.
Waiting.
Oh, thank you, thank you.
I'm a little tired.
Is that a good Tylenol?
Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you.
And ice.
Oh.
Oh, it's cold.
Okay.
And let's, let's get some pillows under there.
Keep it elevated.
Here we go.
I will be right, that's right.
Just a little bit.
Thank you.
Thank you.
From me.
Oh my goodness.
Oh my goodness.
I'm tired.
Holy fuck.
I took a lot out of me.
Do you mind if I just close my eyes for a little bit?
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, thank you.
Seriously, thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
Okay.
Oh my God.
What time is it?
Where is he?
Okay, let's...
Oh, it's okay.
Okay.
Oh, thank God.
Oh.
That's okay.
All right.
Now, where is he?
Oh.
What a sweetie.
Oh, he's sleeping on the couch.
Let me have a pet.
Oh my God.
He's too sweet.
Oh, he's too sweet.
Oh, he's too sweet.
Okay.
Oh, fuck.
Hey.
Hey, wake up.
Hi.
Yeah.
Hi, hi, hi.
You remember me, right?
I'm the girl you let sleep in your bed.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, it feels...
It feels a lot better, actually.
I think I'm pretty much ready to go.
But it's like the middle of the night, right?
I don't want to...
It wouldn't be safe to get in the car right now in the dark in an unfamiliar place, right?
It wouldn't be the safe thing to do.
No.
I'm sorry I woke you up.
I just...
I woke up and saw how late it was, and I was kind of surprised you weren't in bed with
me.
Yeah.
I kind of figured you thought that, but I want you to be in bed with me.
Yeah?
Mm-hmm.
I'm going to kiss you.
Come to bed.
Come to bed with me.
Mm-hmm.
You've already let me sleep in your bed.
You might as well let us just sleep with me now.
I, of course, mean it in the most innocent way.
Just in the bed together.
Sleeping.
What do you think?
All right.
Come on.
Let's go.
Come on.
Take my hand.
Will you follow me this time?
Mm-hmm.
My ankle's much better.
Barely hurts at all?
No.
You took some time.
You took such good care of me.
Saved me.
From my own.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Seriously.
I just, I would be in so much trouble had I not run into you.
And now.
What do you mean?
No.
No.
You're not in trouble.
No.
You're lucky, too.
You're lucky to have met me.
Mm-hmm.
Let's get into bed.
Yeah.
Oh, gosh, you are so warm.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can, I can feel it.
I don't mind.
Why do you think my ass is pressed against you?
You see, you've fallen right into my trap.
I have you right where I want you.
Not exactly where I want you.
Let's get out of these clothes.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
That way we can be more efficient in our warmth sharing.
Obviously.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Come on.
Let's get them off.
Yes.
All of them.
Mm-hmm.
I don't want a single thing.
One single thing between us right now.
I just want to feel all of you.
I just want to feel all of you against me.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Isn't that what you want?
Good.
I thought so.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
I'll just lay on top of you.
Grab my hands.
Mm-hmm.
And around you and just, oh.
Lay on this chest again.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I feel so fucking absurdly lucky right now.
Mm-hmm.
You too?
Ah, good.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I can feel your calm spilling out.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Ah.
