Summer Camp - Leesa May (top ten books to read .txt) 📗

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.

We walked in awkward silence; he kept open his mouth to say something then changing his mind and shutting it again. My cabin wasn't too far away from his. After walking for a while we made our way to the door, “So, I guess I’ll see you round sometime?” he said leaning on the door.
“Yeah, I guess you will.” I said shyly.
“Beth, Reece, what are you two up to?” I was Jess that had opened the door. She must have heard us talking.
“Hey, I’m just saying goodnight to Beth.” He said putting his up in defense. “Night, Beth.” He continued.
“Good night to you to.” I said steeping inside the cabin. Jess closed the door behind me.
“I’m sorry for interrupting whatever was happening out there.” She said frowning.
“Jess, I've only just met Reece. Nothing was happening and nothing will.” My heart sunk when I said those last two words.
“I don’t think that’s how he feels about you.” She said lying on her bed.
“Who was the other girl that was meant to come?” I said staring at the bed above mine and changing the subject.
“I don’t know what her name was, but apparently she got sick or something and she won’t be here until Friday or something. I know what you’re doing trying to change the subject but you can run away from things like this.”
“Thanks Jess, but I don’t want just an eight week relationship with some random person I don’t even know yet he could be a total jerk.” I said putting my headphones in my ears, “Good night.” I heard her mummer something but I was too busy concentrating on listening to Escape The Fate.
