Chapter Text
Your concentrated eyes once again hung over a screen of blocks, frantically swinging at a pure black creature with glowing purple eyes. 

"I swear if you die now-"  George began.

"Aghhh!"

You huffed as 'YOU DIED' lit up the screen in red, knowing that a similar message appeared at the left corner of George's. 

"Seriously?!  We're literally in the End!"  George exclaimed.

"I'm sorry!!  Those things were too fast, I couldn't kill them all!"  You cried in protest.  Those stupid endermen; you'd had full diamond and were so close to beating the game with George.

"It's fine, it's fine.  Good thing we set our spawn- just go through the portal again and grab your stuff.  I'm almost done getting the crystals-"

"Right, got it."  As you clicked the respawn button you were suddenly back in the creepy stronghold, and hopped through the ink-black portal.  You were ashamed to admit that sweat had begun beading on your forehead from all of this gaming- you'd spent at least the past 2 hours, maybe more, gathering materials and learning how to play the game all for this moment.  "Don't kill it all the way," you reminded George. 

"I won't, although I might if you keep taking your sweet time!"  His voice always softened when he made a joke like that, as if worried you might get offended this time despite having gone at each other for two hours. 

"Oh I'm sorry, it's almost like this is my first time playing!"  He laughed sharply in concentration as you heard another explosion through his headset. 

"Boom, there's the last one," he said as you picked up all your stuff from where it was left in the middle of the circle of obsidian towers.  You put on your armor as fast as humanly possible with your small amount of experience, and met him at the bedrock portal that lay in the center.

"Alright, so the dragon's gonna swoop down in a few seconds.  Remember those beds I gave you?  Place one down right there."

You followed his instructions, placing a block in front of it like he told you to. 

"Now when I say go, click the bed.  Can you do that?"

"Yeah," you said determinedly.  "Won't that blow up though?"

George chuckled.  "Yep.  Go!"

You clicked it right as the dragon appeared and-

Boom!   It's already halfway empty health bar lowered down to zero as it exploded in a flash of white and purple. 

"Let's go!!!" you both cheered, giving each other a virtual high-five punch in the game.

"We did it!" you said, pumping your fist in the air.

"You did it, congrats on your first win!"

"Oh, like I could've done it without you, George!  You basically did it yourself- I just get the credit!"  You both laughed wholeheartedly. 

The sun had set, stars were up and barely visible through your window.  The sound of your fan, George's voice and the game were all that filled your bedroom and the dim lamp and computer screen were all that provided light.  You were practically sealed to the chair after having sat in it for so long, but you didn't mind.  It'd been hours but felt like minutes, every moment of giggles and sarcasm cherished in your heart.
