"Under the Starlit Skies A Night by the Lake"

Whispers of the Hidden Lake✨

Not everyone is a fan of camping, trekking spending nights in the woods, or setting up camps in unknown places, under the stars with someone by their side but a group of friends was different a young group of city dwellers always brimming with energy loved planning these camping trips they wanted nothing more than to visit every hidden corner of the world where they could pitch a tent by a serene lake witness a beautiful sunrise and rest in the wilderness that's all they ever wanted this group had been on countless camping trips together there were five guys and four girls and as with any close-knit group there were unspoken stories among them some secretly liked each other some had crushes that led nowhere and there were those who had casual physical relationships that no one else knew about these two kept their secret so well that even to this day, no one had a clue it was as if a snake had slithered through their tent unnoticed but this time the group's energy wasn't the same the camaraderie had faded and not many were excited about the upcoming trip however there were still a couple of them who would always be down for an adventure so three of the guys decided to plan an isolated camping trip in the woods one of them had read about a place that had him buzzing with excitement he was so eager to sit there just admiring the beauty of it all that he would have gone even if no one else joined him the location was breathtaking though remote and requiring a bit of a trek about one or two hours through a forested path it was well worth the effort at the end of the trail you'd come upon a magical lake with a stunning view of the valley the lake's waters flowing ahead into the unknown perhaps merging with a larger river somewhere beyond sight few people knew about this place not even the locals as they had never bothered to explore it but recently someone had stumbled upon it and posted about it online piquing the interest of a few adventurous souls still it wasn't popular enough for crowds to descend on it the next day behind the lake there was a stretch of land perfect for setting up a tent beyond that were dense forests with a solitary boulevard cutting through the dense woods didn't scare him, nor did the profound silence in fact nothing about this place scared him he was at peace a kind of inner peace that nothing could disturb
