They spent time with the others, playing games and eating and chatting away, whilst it got dark outside. Most of the older young people went to the pub since it was nearby and so James and Eleanor are left alone again since Rosie went out for a meal with her family. They are wandered around the building looking for things to do, when they noticed a curtain they never paid much attention too before. They looked behind it and found a door which wasn't locked so it wasn't a bedroom or a staff area. They opened it and saw a set of stairs and, in the mood to explore, they decides to follow them to see where they lead. When Eleanor reached the top and opened the door the door there, she breathed “Oh wow.” James followed her out and saw why she was so amazed. They had found a little balcony, where you can see the lights of the town and the stars in the sky. “This is so cool” James said “Shall we stay here?”

“Shall we grab some blankets and Hot chocolate first?”

“Great idea.”

 

Once they were all settled in with their blankets and Hot chocolate, they decided to play Truth. They slowly learnt more about each other and as the night gets later they just started talking. Eleanor suddenly gave a yawn and James mock-scolded her “You should be in bed. Come on.” They cleared up their stuff and James slowly walked her to her door. They hugged and then Eleanor softly said “Goodnight.” James said it back to her and watched her open the door and slip inside. He kept staring at the door long after she had disappeared through it. He shook his head and went off to his own room. That night both of them dreamed about the other and slept soundlessly.

 

In the morning everyone was busy packing and clearing up so they spent less time with each other. It calms down and James took Eleanor to a quiet place by a fallen log. He told her “You made this weekend amazing for me. I thought I'd hate it but it turned out I loved it. Since we got to know each other much better, I think you should have this.” He wrote his number on her hand and then bent down and kissed her on the cheek. They both looked into each others eyes and then kissed fully, her arms winding around his neck and his pulling her closer by her waist. When they finally stopped, she rested her forehead on his and whispered “You made this the best weekend of my life. I never want to forget it.” He smiled at her and took her hand, she grinned back at him and then they both ran towards where the group photo was taking place wanting to remember one of the happiest days of their lives so far.
