Camp Closeted novel Chapter 27

I couldn't help but worriedly glance at Benny as he was breathing so loud. "Are you okay?" I asked, the sun hitting against our faces.

Benny coughed out of his anxiety as he barely looked at me. "I'm fine. It's just canoeing. Meaning boats, meaning water, meaning seeing fish, oh my god I'm about to pass out." He gagged.

"Benny we don't have to do this if you feel uncomfortable." I replied, gently putting an arm on his shoulder. 

"No, no, I'm fine." He quickly shook his head as he wiggled his hands to shake any fear away. "Bad bitches don't get scared, let's go." Just before I could've replied, a womanly voice had finally spoken out loud.

"Morning boys! It's a gorgeous day today!" She cheered, twirling a strand of blonde hair around her fingers as she literally looked like a human Barbie doll. "My name is Natasha and I'll start off by putting you guys in groups of 5! I'm surprised all of you guys decided to participate, the turn out is incredible!" She cheered, waving at some of the boys.

I anxiously chewed my lips as I too was very shocked to see everyone here, hearing Natasha speak again. "Okay so let's look it here." She glanced down at her clip board. "Jesse, Logan, Rama, Sascha, and Keanu, you guys are a group!"

She continued to announce the groups as Benny and I stood close to each other, distant murmurs and whispering quickly emitting around us.

"Ashton, Jhin, Miles, Tristan, and Nikolai, you guys are a group!" She exclaimed every name very bubbly, continuing to speak again. "Dallas, Trevor, Leo, Andrew, and Romeo, you guys are a group!" She smiled, waiting for the boys to huddle up together.

Benny and I let out a sigh of relief as we find out that we're in the same group, hearing the girl speak 1 last time. "The last group is Benny, Micah, Cadence, Posh, and Milan!" She breathed out. "Alright guys, safely get in your boat and make sure to follow the curvy lake. Do not go off track!" She posed, watching everyone scurry off to their large canoes.

Oh my fuck.

The canoes were gigantic. They were all set up next to each other and I couldn't help but examine each 1. "Benny I'm kinda excited. This is gonna be the first time that I'll ever be canoeing. I'm shocked I even wanted to do it because I hate the outdoors."

Benny breathed in and out as if he hated the feeling of water hit against his feet. "I can't relate. You know how dirty this water might be? Fish shit, animal shit, maybe even human shit mixing in together with the soil." He gagged as I rolled my eyes at him.
