Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll
David:
The Laramie Saga's final chapter......
Ennis wakes up rubbing his eyes. He notices that he is shivering. He sits up and notices that he is in a tent.
Huh? Am i out camping again with Ellery? he thinks to himself.
He steps out of the tent and looks over towards the campfire. A figure turns to greet him.
"Good morning Cowboy" he says. It is Jack Twist!
Ennis nearly faints. He slaps his face to see if this is a dream. (slap)
"Whatter ya doing?" Jack says.
"Am I really here Jack?"
"Ya sure are." So are the horses and the trucks."
Ennis looks over and sees Jacks last truck.
Jack says: "Ennis you were tossing and turning like you have something on yer mind. You finally looked peaceful so I let ya sleep in. You ready to get some something off of yer chest?"
Ennis then realizes that the Laramie months were just a dream. Jack is alive. It is still 1983. He has been given a second chance yet again.
Ennis walks over to Jack by the campfire and gives him a dozy embrace. This time facing him.
Ennis grabs both sides of Jacks face and gives him a warm kiss. "I love you Jack."
Jacks eyes are closed and he begins tremblling.
"Now I must be dreaming" he says.
"Nope. I'm finally awake. Ya think we have time to pack up and drive to Lightning Flat? We have some talking to do with your Ma and Pop".

This is a great chapter. Ennis of all people to give Dupree advice, it may turn out that Dupree is not queer but as Ennis has been in the same confused state when he was young, he's the most suitable person for Dupree to seek advice. He really has come a long way and be able to help others.
