Chapter five

By the time everyone left the table it was past seven-thirty, they all stayed behind to catch up with each other. 

  

“You seem very quiet, are you alright?” Reece whispered into my ear.

“I’m fine, just listening to people’s convocations.” I said looking him in the eyes. They are so captivating it’s hard to stop staring into them.

“Did you want to go for that walk now, before lights out?”

“Sure.” I said nervously.

“Beth, it is okay you can trust me.” He said standing up.

He excused himself and drew me away with him.

“So, is this your first camp?” Reece asked me.

“No, I’ve been coming here since I was thirteen, so about four years. What about you?”

“It’s my first, I’m seventeen and you must be sixteen or fifteen?

“Sixteen.” We fell into a long silence as we walked over the small bridge.

I could hear the rushing water below us.

He looks so beautiful, with his back slightly arched as he looked down at the water. Can I really like this guy even tho we’ve just met?

In the light of the moon I could see his reflection in the rippling water. I don’t know how long we stayed there for. All of a sudden it got quite cold, and little goose bumps appeared on my arms.

“It’s getting cold, I think I might go to my cabin now,” I said lightly touching his arm to get his attention. 

  

“Okay, I’ll walk you back.” He said, turning my direction.
