66 - Hike
Riker wanted to go hiking, so you agreed to go with him. As his girlfriend, you got roped into a lot of random things he wanted to do.
You guys had been walking for hours, and were getting towards the bottom of the mountain you had hiked up.
"Ok, be careful. This part looks steep and slippery," Riker says, holding onto a tree.
"I will."
You grab a tree, and start slowly going down. There are loose rocks and dirt everywhere, and it's almost a little bit dangerous.
All of a sudden, you hear a lot of rocks moving, and see Riker go sliding down the hill.
"Riker!"
Once he gets to the bottom, you hear him groaning in pain.
"Riker! Are you ok!?"
"No, not really!"
"Hang on! I'm coming!"
You grab another tree and slowly make your way down to Riker. He was wearing shorts, and you can see that his legs are all cut up. There's blood kind of everywhere.
You take off your backpack and get out the first aid kit.
"This is probably going to sting. Try to stay still."
You rip open an alcohol wipe and start cleaning Riker's legs. He squirms in pain the whole time.
"Rik, it actually doesn't look too bad now that all the blood is gone. You're just scraped up a little."
You put a few bandaids on him, and then pack up the first aid kit again. Riker's sitting there, staring down at his legs.
"Well the good news is that we made it down without dying, and we've got to be close to the bottom now," you say, helping him stand back up.
You hold his hand the whole way to the bottom of the mountain. You guys walk back to his car and get in. Riker sighs and closes his eyes.
"You ok, Rik?"
"It's just been a long day..."
