BOBBY

I squint at the morning light after Gary yells that he has a text. "Islanders, today the girls will be returning from Casa Amor. This morning your new house guests will treat you to brunch and then you'll be taking a trip to the beach. This evening you'll decide if you want to stick with your partner or to switch with one of the new girls. The girls at Casa will be faced with the same decision. #EndOfTheLine. #AllChangePlease. #WelcomeHome."

Jessa's coming back! I leap out of bed with the renewed energy I've been missing. I can't wait to see her again. I just need evening to get here fast. But what about the guy from the video? What if she picks him? What about Hendrick? Does she have any feelings for him?

The girls run off to prepare brunch. I can't even get excited about brunch because that was my first date with Jessa. All I can think about is her smile while I serenaded her. I want that moment back, not this.

We find the girls wearing skimpy maid like outfits to serve us brunch. Jessa would do a number on me in that outfit. "What can I get you, sir?" Bella asks me.

"Umm. I'll have french toast and tea please."

"Sure thing." She returns with both of our breakfasts and sits down with me. "I can't believe this is already over. It went by so fast. I've had such a good time, I'm sad it's over. How are you feeling?"

"I'm excited to see the other girls again. No offense."

"Hopefully I make it into the Villa so I can meet them," she hints to me with a smile. "Just remember everything I've said to you. Remember the video. I really like you. I just want you to make the right decision for you. Plus, you're not even coupled up with Jessa. Bring me back to make sure you're safe." She is technically right. I'm not partnered with Jessa. What happens to me if Marisol brings that guy back? Though what will happen to Jessa if Hendrick picks Blake? I move the conversation away from this evening and we finish up brunch with small talk.

"I've got a text!" I yell as my cell sounds.

"Islanders, it is now time for everyone to pack. Girls, please pack up your stuff. Boys, please pack an outfit to wear for tonight. You will be getting ready away from the Villa. #PackPackBaby. #BeachVibes."

I run off to pack a small bag. I put a lot of thought into what to wear tonight. In the end, I decide on classic vacation Bobby. I grab a blue, Jessa's favorite color, Hawaiian floral shirt that I'm pairing with light skinny jeans.

The boys are waiting for the girls outside and we head to the beach. It's a blast. We have a sandcastle competition. We soak up the sun. We swim in the waves. I love a good beach day but I wish this was something I could experience with Jessa. She'd look sexy in one of her skimpy bikinis. I can just picture the sand clinging to her glistening skin. Ugh. I run back into the ocean to hide my erection. I wonder if she's back at the Villa already.

JESSA

"I'm so excited to go back to the Villa!" Chelsea gushes.

"I thought you were having so much fun here," I say as I make sure all my stuff is packed. I didn't really unpack because I didn't want this to be long term. I triple check that I have Bobby's shirt and socks.

"Oh I've had a blast. I just feel like I was hardly there before we were whisked away. I probably know these Casa boys better than I know the original boys now."

"So are you sticking with Gary or picking Elijah?" Lottie asks.

"I legit have no idea what to do. I'm torn. I just haven't had a chance to properly connect with anyone yet."
