The Mountain Between Us Page #4

If we stay here, we're safe. If we leave...

Look, I don't wanna die up here

because you're too scared to take a risk.

Hey, I'm not gonna fall off a mountain

because you're reckless and selfish.

What?

You know what? You're absolutely right.

You did get me into this.

I was trying to be nice.

- Wait a second. No.

- I was trying to help!

- I was trying to help you.

- No. Hold on a second.

You weren't trying to help me.

You know, I could be married by now.

Do you ever think about that?

Is that what we're talking about?

Your ceremony?

My God, poor Mark!

What about my patient? You think about that?

Yeah? Do you think about my patient?

Don't blame me for your f***ing problems,

'cause if it wasn't for me, you'd be dead.

You're the lucky one.

Unlike me. I'm stuck with you.

I would've had a much better chance

if I didn't have you around, honestly.

Okay.

Let's go.

He's probably gonna eat you, anyway.

We'll find something. Just keep walking.

Alex!

No.

Okay.

Hey.

Smile.

Don't give up.

Don't give up.

Alex!

Alex!

You could have said goodbye.

I had to try.

I had to try my way.

I'm just so glad I found you.

Me too.

So...

do we go back?

No, we wouldn't make it back.

We have to get down to the tree line.

- Keep moving.

- Okay.

Okay.

Tell me something. Tell me something.

What?

Tell me about your wedding.

My wedding?

Yeah.

Didn't you hear?

I missed it.

Yeah.

No... can't talk. You tell me something.

Tell me, what...

what kind of a doctor are you?

- Oh.

- Um...

I'm a neurosurgeon.

Oh, yeah? Yes.

Yeah. Brains. Why brains?

It's an intense responsibility,

you know, to...

cut into someone's brain.

It's where their perceptions are...

their intelligence...

their emotion.

What about the heart?

Huh?

The heart's nothing but a muscle.

That's it, boy.

We made it to the tree line.

Let's find shelter.

I think something's here.

This cave will work.

Come on.

Yeah. Yeah.

- Here.

- Ah.

I know.

Oh, jeez. It's freezing.

Quite a bit of swelling there.

- Any better?

- Yeah. That does look better.

- Look at that bandage.

- Yeah.

It's holding up actually.

Hey, you know what would be funny?

If you weren't really a doctor.

Why would that be funny?

Well, you'd just be doing all this

so you could see my fancy underwear.

They're not that fancy.

All right.

Thank you.

It's okay.

Where's your gloves?

God, Jesus.

Sh*t, you're freezing.

Here, come on.

There.

Better?

I owe you an apology.

I did find that beacon.

I saw it.

It was smashed to pieces.

No, you didn't know that

when you came looking for me, did you?

I think we should stay together.

I mean...

stick together.

- Mm-hmm.

- Yeah.
