Chapter 71

Henri stepped out a few moments later with a bundle of clothes in his hands, he intended to change out of his sweaty clothes into fresh ones after his swim in the lake.

"We'll get started on dinner before you return," Louis informed him. "Do you want me to walk you to the lake?" He offered.

Henri looked around the campsite, the others were slowly rousing from their naps as well. Seton was nowhere to be found but his tent was zipped up so there was a high chance that he was just inside it.

The sun was setting a little bit too fast and although Henri preferred this because he needed the cover of darkness, it was a little scary.

"Thanks." He muttered, leading the way there.

"I'll hang around," Louis said with a hint of nervousness when they got to the lake. "Just call for me if you need anything."

He didn't want to intrude but he didn't entirely feel comfortable leaving Henri alone at the lake while it was starting to get dark.
