The next morning, after a few hours of sleep, he rose and headed out down to the ocean. Finding a path to reach the beach from the cliffs, he walked along the sand and then stripped off his shoes and socks. The morning was cool yet and the water would be freezing, but one of the doctors had mentioned that swimming would help strengthen his leg. Heâd do whatever was necessary to return to the army, this was the least of it. Drawing in a deep breath, he stepped into the water. Besides, the cold would like help with his constant state of arousal.
âFor feckâs sake, what are you doing?â Drew called from behind him.
He grimaced, not looking at his brother as annoyance prickled along his skin. âMind your business.â
âI wonât.â Drew called and then went silent.
Harry turned to see his brother stripping off his clothes. âWhat are you doing?â
âGoing in with you. Itâs bloody cold. What if your hipââ Then Drew stopped.
âIâm not an invalid.â Harry grumped. He resented that his brother thought he was. But his shoulders relaxed. âI am simply exercising my hip in a way that takes some of the pressure off. If I donât do more activity, I wonât heal.â
Drew grimaced as the cold water swirled about his knees. âYou must be serious about going back if youâre willing to tolerate this.â
âI am,â he said as he moved into deeper water.
Drew followed, sucking in deep breaths. âI still donât understand. You can live a disciplined life full of work here. Bar does. Heâs the most serious person I know.â
Harry drew in a deep breath as water swirled about his chest. âI should have died that day, Drew.â Then he dunked under, allowing the cold water to clear his head. When he resurfaced, Drew stood in chest-deep water a foot away. âAlfred is the only reason Iâm here. He pushed me out of the way. He died defending this country and his last act was saving me.â
Drewâs face pulled tight before he dunked down under too. When he came up, he gasped in a breath. Scrubbing his face, he looked at Harry. âTell me more.â
Harry shrugged. âThere isnât much to tell. I owe him my life and I intend to repay that debt by first making certain that Sophieâs future is secured and then by beating the piss out of the French.â
Drew gave him a long look and then kicked off the bottom. âEnough talking. You need to swim? Iâll race you to those rocks.â
A race. Sounded good to him.
