《When we meet again》25. The guilt is eating me alive

"Hey."
"So, how hungover are you?"
"It's not that bad actually, I've had worse. Unfortunately, I have to admit that I remember our phone call and I want to apologise."
"You get pretty emotional when you're drunk."
"I know."
"You were right, though. There has been distance between us. Do you remember when I was acting distant and asking for space? And then I told you I had my reasons?"
"Yeah, I remember. Of course I do."
"You told me to wait until I was ready to tell you."
"Yeah."
"I'm nowhere near ready. But I don't think I'll ever be, Finn. You should know. I've got to tell you."
"Don't rush it for me. I can wait."
"No. It's too important. It can't wait anymore. The guilt is eating me alive, Finn."
"Okay, tell me."
"You know when we talked about meeting and I started freaking out? And a day after I started to wonder if things would've been different if we had known each other."
"I remember. But what does that have to do with anything?"
"That first call? It wasn't just a random prank call, Finn. Calling you that first time wasn't an accident. I knew it was your number, or at least, I hoped it still was your number. That's also why I hung up the first time, I didn't know what to do when it was actually you."
"What do you mean?"
"Do you remember when you told me that you seemed to recognise my voice, but you thought that would be impossible?"
"What are you telling me, May? Do I actually know you?"
"May isn't my name either. Or at least, not my first name."
"What the hell? Who are you?"
"... It's Ella, Ella Young."
"What-"

Alexa González is alone. That’s fine. Following the sudden loss of her long-time gaming partner, Alexa has fallen back to old, nasty habits; namely, wielding her independent nature like a weapon.

As a long-time streamer, Justin’s never played DUSKFALL without an audience to keep his attention off the demon-infested forests and brutal violence. But hastily chosen teammates in a world gone sideways can have more repercussions than a few bruised feelings. None of this is fine; not remotely. If either is going to survive, they can’t do it alone, they can’t do it lightly, and they have to figure it out soon... before it’s too late for either of them. Guaranteed Wednesday updates.Contains light LitRPG elements
