Heron Lake Plateau plan b

Eljay unknowingly made his way down to the lake -- if he'd known what awkward situation he may face, Eljay might have stayed away. As he passed Raven as he got close to the lake Eljay greeted her with a smile, and he trotted down to the lake. Not far off he noticed a hole in the lake. Raven must've just gone for a sip, he told himself, and with a smile Eljay made his way to the lake, happy that he was so lucky today.

Only as he got closer did Eljay notice Towhee and the packmate he didn't instantly recognise. They were all huddled close together... "Oh," Eljay said as he approached, then, as he realised that they might've been, you know... snuggling up all close-like, he repeated with more urgency -- "Oh!" Eljay instantly felt awkward and tried helplessly to fix the situation, "Oh goodness, uhm, sorry, I didn't realise — I'll just, uhm..." Not sure what to do with himself, Eljay started to shuffle away in hopes they and he could all just forget what he had potentially been seeing. Why did it have to be Towhee? She already hated him, he really couldn't use doing another Dumb Thing in front of her!
