We got off the train and speedwalked to where the high ropes was. You could see a bit of the course before walking in the entrance and Tommy didn't describe where it was or what it looked like so I was quite surprised at how big the area was l.
"Hello, we're here to go on the high ropes course," Tommy said to the staff member at the front desk.
"Have you booked a time slot online," the staff member asked.
"Yep," Tommy replied, showing them a screenshot of the booking from his phone.
"Alright, follow me then. You need to watch a health and safety video first," they said and led us into a room before leaving.
Tommy, Tubbo and Ranboo watched the film while talking but I was staring at the video closely listening to everything the safety video said. The video made me feel more nervous and as we were walking to the start of the course, I zoned out staring at the ground. "(/n), (y/n), you okay," I heard Tubbo say.
I looked at the others worried faces and smiled weakly, "I wouldn't go on the course if I didn't want to," I said, "Now come on, let's get the safety stuff on." The three nodded.
"You all ready for me to start filming," Tommy asked.
"Yeah," Tubbo, Ranboo and I said (me being slightly hesitant compared to the others).
"Alright, here hold tha camera for the intro," Tommy said, passing me the camera, "Gentleman and woman, today were getting high," he continued. I hoped that I was keeping the camera still for the vlog but my nerves were making me a bit shaky.
"Hi," Someone on the course said.
"Oh my god," I said quietly realising how high up the course is as Tommy dubbed the person 'sky women'.
We stopped filming for a few minutes while the workers helped us get into the safety harnesses and left us alone to do the course, after all they could trust us to take safety seriously right... nope. The second they left Tubbo started pulling on the rope attached to Tommy's harness, Tommy started making jokes about hooking up with Ranboo, I was staring at the course and panicking and Ranboo was trying to encourage me while telling Tubbo to stop pulling Tommy's rope.
We eventually got to the ladder and Tubbo somehow got competitive which turned into mild death threats towards Tommy worrying quick.
Tommy was the first person on the ladder and was struggling a little to get up, this didn't fill me with much confidence considering I was already feeling dizzy just by looking up despite still being on the ground. Tubbo climbed up a ladder on the other side at the same time and when he was up, Ranboo climbed up as well.
"It won't be bad when you're up there," I said, giving myself a pep talk, "you'll be fine. You'll get up there, have fun and completely forget your fear. Right here goes nothing," I said, shakily climbing up.
I got up the ladder quicker than I expected, but when I was on the platform I backed up as far as I could, hugging the tree and refusing to look down. Meanwhile, Tubbo and Ranboo were already walking across a rope with Tubbo trying to kick Ranboo and them off ballance.
"Do you want me to help you keep your balance," Tommy said holding his hand out. I grabbed his hand and slowly moved away from the tree, "Oh my god, This is so romantic," Tommy joked.
"No it isn't, I'm gonna fucking fall," I said standing on the rope. Even though Tubbo and Ranboo were on the other side, all three of them look at me silently, even Ranboo swears off stream occasionally but since I never swear they all could tell how much this was effecting me. I looked at their faces and could have laughed at their expressions, a mix of worry and shock. I stopped moving and closed my eyes while slowing my breathing to try and calm down.
"I'm being irrational. I'm perfectly safe, I have the safety harness on. I'll be fine. I can do this," I said to myself while I slowly walked across the first rope.
N/a and positive rant: woah it's already been a year of writing this story. I'm surprised that I've written for so long about one thing, if I didn't publish this story here I probably would have gotten bored and stopped writing it but I'm happy people enjoy reading it and I like reading the comments (especially the couple ones about future chapters. I get why Ranboo thinks it's funny to be obscure about referencing their future projects now lol). Thank you all for making my first year posting on here a good one :)
