As nice as it was of Tilcott to say, Theo wasn't hugely reassured. He hadn't even mentioned the blunders he'd made...

Suddenly their conversation was brought to an abrupt halt as it seemed that the other man had collided with something, or rather, someone. "Who's there?" Tilcott had said Turner and Theo was pretty sure the name was one of the younger boys but he couldn't remember which. Oops. There was also the possibility that Tilcott had made a mistake in the darkness and it was someone else entirely.
