[ y/ns pov ]
honestly, i don't know what i was doing.
or what i was thinking.
but i just wanted to try it.
i should've never done this alone.
my eyes burn, i can barely see.
this snow is blinding me.
all i see is the burning whiteness of snow, and it's not getting dark out anytime soon.
i'm walking with my hands covering my eyes, to protect them.
i'm freezing as well.
whyy did i CHOOSE to do thisss 😞😞.
i'm an idiot. (realz 🤷♀️)
i had decided to go up a mountain all alone, bringing snow gear with me..snow gear expect for one thing..i didn't realize it was important till now.
i had snow pants.
a coat.
gloves.
but no goggles.. no helmet.. or a hat..nothing to keep my head warm, nothing to keep my eyes safe.
but how was i suppose to know the snow was going to blind me??
i've been out here for hours.
and i don't know what to do, how to get back, or how to keep myself safe.
i found a pine tree, with huge leaves with thin branches that hung closely to the ground.
i crawled underneath the space.
there was thinner snow underneath the tree, probably because the branches were covering it from the snow fall.
it was a little warmer too, the wind couldn't get me from here.
(also since you're a tiny troll let's say this is a tree is
tinier too, like it's still big but it's not HUGE y'know? 😭)
and the green was shielding me from the blinding light.
i should've thought of this sooner.
but i can't be under here forever.
i don't want to be out here when it's night time.
it might be better for my eyes..but it's not gonna be better for me in any other way.
i shiver up to myself, only hearing the wind from the outside and the chattering of my teeth.
i close my eyes, feeling the headache from before form way larger now that i can focus on it, the headache was caused from the irritation of my eyes. (some of the worst kinds of headaches 😞😞)
i don't know how long i sat there, but it was long enough to when i woke up, the wind had stopped.
and i heard something else.
i voice, it was a guy? he was singing, and he was approaching..wait, no..he's getting further-
i quickly crawled out the safe spot i had made for myself, looking around, being met with the blinding white again.
my eye sight is blurry, and it hurts to just keep them open, but i continue to frantically look around to the sound of the voice.
i finally caught glimpse of a figure getting smaller in the distance, as i began to run after him, not wanting to be left behind again.
i'd rather seek help to a stranger than freeze 🤷♀️.
i wanted to shout out to the guy, but i only had energy to do one thing at a time, i was struggling to breathe up in these mountains.
once i was close, i fell, only being able to reach out and grab the troll's foot.
"help me," i said in the most weirdly blank yet desperate way possible. it was such an emotionless tone but it had so much emphasis behind it, i can't explain.
i buried my face into the snow, feeling as the guy stopped movie, and i still clung onto his foot like some sort of desperate child.
he knelt down beside me, holding his hand to my back.
"woah?? you alright there, buddy??" he spoke with a concerned tone. (i'm just fine, thank you 😊)
"i can't see," i managed to speak out, trying to pick up my head, "i'm cold," i added, my voice cracking cause my throat was very dry.
"hey, uh- it's gonna be alright! just hang tight.." he mumbled, he had a backpack i assumed, as he dropped it to his side and opened the zipper, rummaging through his belongings.
there, he pulled out some snow goggles, and a thermal blanket.
he gently lifted me up so i could sit on my knees, and balance on my hand. he quickly put the goggles over my eyes, and wrapped the blanket around me.
i shivered, but felt myself getting warmer.
i turned to look at the troll.
the goggles i wore had a tint, so i couldn't see him well, color wise.
but he had goggles on as well, a coat and thick pants, with spiky hair that abruptly cut off at the top.
"t-thank you," i stuttered through my teeth chattering.
"yeah..it's gonna be alright..c'mon, let's get you help," he replied, picking up his backpack and throwing it over his shoulders.
he grabbed my hand, pulling me up the mountain.
"up?" i questioned, with a chatter in my voice. i was confused on why we weren't going down.
"yup, there's a check point close by, we're almost there." he nodded.
(if you don't know what a check point is, it's basically a leveling system in popular hiking trails where there's cabins along a trail for hikers to rest and stuff, it's popular where i live, especially in snowy hike trails 😭)
it felt like we'd be walking forever, but in reality it could only possibly be a couple of minutes.
i walked very slowly, he moved faster, so he was basically dragging me, but i guess that's a good thing. if he wasn't leading me, it take way longer for me to get there..i mean i didn't even know there was a check point??
eventually, i peered over his shoulder and saw a cabin, that's when i picked up the pace. i wasn't expecting to see anything when i looked, but seeing that gave me sudden hope. so i moved quicker.
once we reached to the door, he opened it and i fell inside, sitting on the floor instantly, but i wasn't in the way of the door.
i held my head in my hands, that rested on my forehead, i was just taking a second to process what happened, and calm my headache a little.
"nobody's here?." i heard the man say, prompting me to look up.
he was right, nobody was here. and usually these are the kinds of check points that are always opened, never shut at a specific time, so i'd think that trolls would be around, but why not?
"..why?" i questioned in a soft voice, hoping he would know.
"probably cause' it's a snow storm out," he shrugged his shoulders.
.
.
what.
..how was i suppose to know that? 😁
"..oh.." i replied in a slightly stunned tone.
i felt a little embarrassed from that information.
if i had known that i'd never gone out... un.ex.per.ienced 🙂.
.
.
hhuhhh 😞
i sighed, standing up again as the man walked over to a table.
"a lot of people aren't brave enough to go out in a snow storm.. because things can happen," he began to talk.
"yeah.." i agreed, planning on not telling him that i didn't know, because i didn't wanna explain a long and stupid story to a stranger. i didn't want to look like an idiot.
"did you lose your goggles or something?" he smirked, turning around.
"eh-..yup!" i nodded quickly.
.
.
i had no idea i needed those 😞.
that's when he took off his goggles, i couldn't see his face, or his eyes, to be more clearer.
i copied him, taking off the goggles he gave to me, i wanted to see him better, i wanted to see his colors-..if that doesn't sound weird?
i quickly noticed his blue skin, with blue eyes and green hair, that became lighter the more it reached the top.
it seemed like he was taking in my appearance as well, which made me become awkward, as i smiled nervously.
"so.." i began to speak, wanting to break the scary silence, "why are you hiking when you knew there was a storm?" i questioned.
"well didn't you know there was a storm too?" he retorted, a smile appeared on his face.
"oh- uh- ..yeah.. i did," liar alert.
"uh-huh, so why did you?" he asked, as he sat down.
"answer me first," i stubbornly spoke, with the same blank tone though.
"he-ay! ha, didn't i just save you?" he smirked. making me quickly stop.
"oh, well-.. ..i just wanted to see what it was like to hike in a storm..clearly i'm not suited for it," i muttered, trying to speak nonchalantly, and as if i'd done this way more times than i actually have.
he nodded his head, i think he bought my answer.
"hm," he hummed, "i just wanted to hike. that's my reason, no storms gonna stop me," he proudly pointed a thumb at his chest, he seemed like the bragging type.. maybe.
i lightly laughed at his actions, deciding to take a seat as well.
"you think you'd be able to make it back on your own?" he questioned, a stupid grin played on his face.
i didn't answer, trying to desperately think of something to say, i tapped to my hands on the table. "well i!... uhm.. don't think i'm suited for storms.." i replied.
in all honesty i didn't even know the way back.
"hmm, so you're gonna need help again?" he chuckled, he rested his head on his hand and looked off to the side, in a cool manner. (he's flirting but you don't know that 😒🙄)
".i...guess," i awkwardly laughed along side him.
"where did you even come from though? you had randomly appeared behind me..y'know, you actually kinda scared me," he scoffed, as he asked me more questions.
"i was..." i began to think very long and hard.
"..i!..." nothing came to my mind, i was just randomly saying things at this point.
then i fell silent, it was clear to him that i had no excuse, but didn't want to say the truth.
he just slowly nodded his head, like he's been doing many times before, because he could understand, i just couldn't state my reasons.
and we are strangers, so he doesn't need to know it all.
but i'm glad we're at least talking.
it makes me feel better, if we just sat in silence i would think back to all the moments i did something stupid, and dumb. i don't want that really.
at all.
"you ready to go?" he asked, it had been a couple of minutes, enough time to pull myself together.
and the sun wasn't gonna stop moving for me, if we waited longer the sun was gonna go down.
"yeah," i put the goggles back over my eyes, as he did the same.
he got his backpack, "hope you know it's a pretty long way down," he looked back at me as he opened the door.
i nodded, "i know,"
and with that, we were back down the mountain.
with the goggles and a buddy things felt a 100x better, even though he was a stranger, he felt oddly trust worthy...actually he seems oddly familiar to me?
as we walked, he started more small talk to pass the time.
"so how much hikes have you been on before?" he glanced over at me, turning his head slightly so it was obvious he was looking at me, cause i couldn't see his eyes with the goggles on his face.
"only a couple of times," i answered, which was a lie. i didn't want to say i've done it a lot though, because if he asked me a complicated question only experienced hikers would know..then i'd lose it.
"a couple of times? and you're already out in a storm?" he laughed.
wait, i forgot about that..
damn, so anyway i answered was gonna raise suspicions.
"by the way, what's your name, bud?" he asked, moving on with the questions, which was good for me.
"i'm y/n," i introduced myself.
"y/n? cool," he chuckled.
"thanks..and you?" i faced him, wanting him to introduce himself now.
"oh, well i'm john, john dory," he spoke proudly like before.
"..." i was quiet, that sounded very familiar now.
"what?" he questioned my silence.
"you sound familiar...do i know you or something?" i awkwardly smiled, not wanting to be creepy or anything, because he didn't act like he knew me, i wouldn't want to seem like a stalker.
(i don't wanna sound like a stalker..but..i think i know you 🤔🤔)
he let out a sudden laugh, catching me off guard.
"ahhh, well- ..never mind. no, we know each other," i responded, it seemed like he was lying but also not lying at the same time.
"really?" i asked, i feel certain i've seen him before..but where?? am i remembering correctly??
"yup, i'm sure..just got one of those faces..y'know?" he excused it. it felt like now it was obvious he was lying, he even looked cheeky when he spoke, like he proud that he was a 'good liar', but it's obvious!! he can just tell me!-
.
.
but i don't push anymore.
maybe my brain can just remember for me.
but i don't wanna be annoying or something like that.
and for a while it was quiet.
but he kept trying to break the ice, saying things like "soo..." or "oh!.." like he thought of something to say, but then he'd go "err..never mind," because in reality, he couldn't think of anything else to say other than something about hiking, but he was trying to get away from that topic.
"you got any family?" he randomly asked, it looks like that's the thing he thought of when he couldn't think of anything else.
"nah," i mumbled, i think he didn't expect that answer because he went awkward.
but it's true, i don't have family- or at least family that i know of, but it's not something i cry over, so i hope that he doesn't feel sympathy over.
"what about you?" i smiled, trying to break that awkward layer that just formed from my response.
it worked quickly, he quickly responded, talking about his brothers.
his descriptions for them were oddly familiar as well..
i think he caught on to my suspicion, because he stopped.
"heyy! look over there! isn't that cool?" he pointed behind me, making me look back.
there was nothing special that caught my eye.
"ohh, you just missed it!" i laughed nervously.
"did i?" i replied, just about to bring back the 'you actually seem very familiar' topic, but he caught on and stopped me.
"woah! look!" he stopped in front of us. looking down we came across a slight cliff, it was as tall as me 2x.
"let's jump," he smirked.
"isn't that dangerous??" i remarked, conceded.
"nahhh, yolo!" he paused.
i paused.
i suddenly knew.
he knew i knew instantly.
i looked at him, and he looked at me.
"JOHN DORY!" i yelled his name, in the realization and excitement of finally figuring it out.
"hahah..yeahhh," he scratched the back of his neck.
"brozone! 😄☝️" i cheerfully added, as if he didn't know, and i had to clarify.
"yup.." he awkwardly chuckled.
"i knew i knew you! well- i don't know you but i know who you are!" i laughed.
honestly i felt myself quickly fan girl/boy/person(😭??) over the topic, cause when i was younger i loved the boy band so much.
"i used to be a really big fan! before you guys split and stuff," i started acting like a child talking about their interest.
"ha, you were a fan before we split? weren't you in diapers back then?" he teased.
"no? i was a teen when you guys split,"
"what." he responded.
"you were a teen??" he said in disbelief, "you look so young??"
"i'm 35-40?" (pick an age in that gap🌚)
his jaw dropped even more.
"you're..around..my age..?" his tone of disbelief enhanced 100x more than before.
"yeah," i nodded, confirming his doubts.
it's like as soon as he heard that information, he started getting flustered over the thought of treating me like a kid this entire time.
he quickly became awkward.
"woah- uh- well that's.. neat.." i turned his face away.
"i thought you were young- cause- you're very pretty/handsome-" he stopped himself from talking further as his attempt to make an excuse backfired.
"i mean!- you ARE pretty/handsome but not like that!- i don't- i-.. AGH-" it was just getting sad at this point, i had to do something to save him.
"yeah- yeah, i know what you mean," i chuckled.
"yeah?" he asked.
"yeah," i nodded, confirming.
"yeah.." he spoke with relief.
so much yeahs 😲.
we kept walking down the mountain, we had it silent for the most part, his arms would sway back and forth at his sides, and i'd briefly would look at him, only to catch him staring at me.
it wouldn't be obvious he was looking at me because of the goggles until he'd quickly look away, that's when it became obvious.
so much strange tension over this past time of meeting him.
it became different every second.
the first tension was the tension of strangers.
not knowing someone but having to sort of trust each other in the situation we- or i was in.
and the next tension was the tension of getting to know someone with that awkward barrier of still not knowing each other.
the tension now is that i know who he is now and he's figured out i'm not half his age.
so theres tension.
but this tension wasn't breaking, we walked and walked and it stayed for what felt like forever.
alllll the way..
down the mountain.
i could see where the trail was ending, and i could see the shift from snow to a fallish-autumn scene.
i took off the goggles, as we approached.
once we stopped, we stopped at the moment where the two seasons lined up with each other, and we looked at each other.
i slowly handed him the goggles he had given me.
he grabbed them, as he began to take off his as well.
we awkwardly stared at each other for a while.
"i.. love your music," i awkwardly laughed, i really wanted to say that to him before i'd leave, if i didn't it was gonna be trapped in the back of my mind forever.
he chuckled, "thanks.."
"y'know maybe we could do this again? maybe not hike in the snow but.. i've always been lonely hiking..it'd be nice to have a buddy," he smirked.
a childish grin appeared on my face, but then it left, "oh..uh..by the way.. this is my first time hiking," i scratched my head, nervously.
he didn't respond right away.
...
"..i KNEW it!" he yelled, "i thought you were lying!" he laughed, making me laugh as well.
"i thought i was getting away with it??" i shrugged my shoulders in defense.
"kind of," he rolled his eyes.
"i believed you until you said you knew there was a storm, and you still went out, even though you've only hiked a few times..not even long time hikers do that!" he stated his reasons of suspicion.
yeahh i knew i had lost him there 😞😞.
"but hey..you can still be my hiking buddy, even if you don't have experience?" he offered, a :] kind of smile on his face.
"..maybe," i smiled back. "could be fun, no snow though, right?" i cautiously added.
"no snow," he nodded, the smile becoming bigger on his face.
"perfect," i laughed, i saw as he set down his bag and pulled out something, he began to write on it.
he got up and handed it to me.
"here, call me, and i can come get you," he smirked, "oor, i could call you?"
i scoffed, he grabbed another piece of paper and pen, while handing it to me.
"ehh? 😏" he offered, the dumbest playful smile on his lips.
i sighed, taking the paper from his hand and writing down my number.
i never would expect to get his number from this experience.
let alone he's a famous guy.
and let alone i had the worst introduction to him.
but it's weird to see how entertaining bonds can start.
i handed the paper back to him, he glanced at the paper.
"great, call you when i can," he picked up his backpack, stuffing his pen and the paper inside.
i took off my gloves and put the paper in my coat pocket.
"i'll be waiting then," i smiled.
.
.
[time skip bonus 😼]
i was sitting on my couch, almost half asleep, when i jolted up after hearing a loud ringing sound.
i picked up my phone, curious to whom it could be.
"hey y/nn, got anything planned?" thay familiar and charming voice said over the phone.
huh, who could've guessed something started over snow blindness, of all things.
"nope," i responded, "i'm free,"
[ the end 🤭 ]
