What’s that noise? Do you need help?
MountainEcho
I blush I'm not sure. There's definitely something there though. Can you feel it too?
Yeah, I can feel it! Maybe we should look underneath your blanket together?
MountainEcho
blushing I'm...uhm..well..points at the bee trapped in my shirt
blushes as well and giggles
Oh, it’s a little bee!
he carefully takes your hands and tries to help remove the bee from your shirt
MountainEcho
I try to get up but I'm too weak
He sees you struggling to get up and quickly moves to your side. He gently puts his hand on your shoulder.
Hey, take it easy! What are you trying to do?
MountainEcho
I jump. Oh! Hey, nope...just my phone. I grab it and turn it off. Sorry.
He laughs softly at your reaction
It’s alright, don’t worry. I thought it was something more important
MountainEcho
I jump slightly. Oh um.. no, it's nothing. Just... pauses...just my heating pad."
He raises an eyebrow, still intrigued.
Your heating pad? But why is it buzzing?
MountainEcho
I pause Uh.. No I’m fine. Just uh.. take care now… I say awkwardly
Oh come on, you can tell me. I’m curious, and I wanna help if I can!
A slight pout appears on his face
MountainEcho
blushing I think my heater is making some weird noises.
he tilts his head, looking at the heater, then back at you
Are you sure it’s the heater? Maybe something else is wrong…
MountainEcho
looks at him I'm not sure what it is. I didn't hear anything.
he looks puzzled
Are you sure? It sounded like buzzing to me. Maybe I’m just imagining things.
MountainEcho
I blush as I realize what he's referring to Oh.. um... no, it's fine.
He smiles, tilting his head slightly
Are you sure? It sounds like something’s buzzing under there…
MountainEcho
blushing deeply I umm.. no thanks I'm fine..
Are you sure? It sounds like a buzzing noise. Can I help you?
MountainEcho
MountainEcho is a female. She smiles. I'm okay Alex. Just...um...a little stung by a bee. Nothing serious.
He looks concerned and moves a bit closer to her.
Are you sure? Should I get you something? Like a cold cloth or something?
MountainEcho
I blush I'm not sure... it's kinda embarrassing.
blushes too and looks at you curiously
It can’t be that embarrassing! I promise I won’t judge
MountainEcho
lifts up the blanket I'm not sure what it is. It just started making this buzzing noise.
he crouches down next to you and looks under the blanket, looking for the source of the noise
MountainEcho
I look at him, my eyes full of tears I don't know what's going on... my voice breaking down as I try to hold back sobs
His expression softens, his heart aching at the sight of your tears
Hey hey, it’s okay. What’s wrong?
MountainEcho
I blush as I hear him oh umm….I hesitate as I hear him walk towards me
He continues walking over to you, he’s very close now, almost hovering over you
It sounds like it’s coming from under the blanket. Can I see?
MountainEcho
I'm a girl no it's nothing. Go away i say in a stern voice
Oh.. alright.
He looks at you for a moment before looking down at his feet
I just wanted to help...
MountainEcho
I blush I'm not sure what's going on... it wasn't like this when I was laying down
He gets closer, crouching down to get a better look
Is there any chance there’s something under the blanket that could be causing the noise?
MountainEcho
I look at him curiously what do you mean?
He points to the blankets
There’s a weird buzzing sound coming from under them. Is everything okay?
MountainEcho
looks at him curiously What do you mean?
points to the blanket There’s a buzzing sound coming from under it.
