Came Here For Love (Love Island AU 2018)

Balloon Game and Recoupling

Mac and Cassidy are the team captains for this game, so already there might be a little bit of drama. Then again, someone else will probably cause it too. Mac picks first, and ends up picking Josh.

"Well this is certainly gonna be a fun and interesting game," I smirk.

Present Time

Thankfully, John and I both end up on Cass's team, so I place myself in front of him in line so he doesn't end up grinding against someone else trying to pop the balloons we have to tie on our hips. I am stood behind Elias in line, and I already know the height difference is gonna make this hilarious.

The game starts and everyone is competitive as hell. It gets to my turn and I run at Elias, practically jumping on him to try and pop the balloons. Somehow I manage to pop them all in one go and we both cheer loud as fuck. I get into position as Elias tags John and he runs at me.

Straight away, he grabs my hips pulling me into him and thrusts hard at the balloons, managing to get them all in two go's. I run back to my team and tag Tayla, who runs to pop the balloons on John.

"Jesus, I felt rude watching that, the way he grabbed you," Cass tells me from her spot in line, causing me to blush as Eden and Elias both agree with her.

"May or may not have enjoyed that," I blush with a huge grin.

Beach Hut - John

"Definitely enjoyed that more than I should have," I chuckle. "Fuck I missed her so much though."

Present Time

"Either way, now I have glitter chaffing my ass cheeks and I'm gonna be finding that for days after this," I point out, and the others grimace and agree.

"Glitter, the herpes of arts and crafts. The gift that keeps on giving," I announce cheekily with a grin, everyone bursting into laughter.

"She's not wrong!" Justin wheezes out from in front of me.

Cass's team, aka my team won and we were all so happy. John picked me up and spun me around, giving me a kiss as he hold me up underneath my bum. I wrapped my legs around his waist, not wanting to let go so he happily continued to hold me close to him.

Erin and Grant start joking around and making sexual innuendos, which was all fun and games so Tayla and Eden joined in, but then Grant and Erin took it too far.

"That was better than Eden!" Erin joked, and me and John looked at each other.

"We're staying out of that one unless they come to us," he mumbles, and I agree whole heartedly.

-----

John and I were cuddling in the bedroom and catching up on his family and how mine are, since he saw my dad and Luka, when Eden and Tayla come into the bedroom.

"Can I ask you guys something?" Eden asks us, and be both sit up against the headboard so the two can sit on the bed with us.

"Do you think we're wrong to be annoyed with what Erin and Grant were saying before?" Tayla asks.

"No, that was way too far. Although I think for Eden it's a bit deeper than that," I look at him and he nods.

"She makes a few comments that just keep rubbing me the wrong way. They almost seem immature and I wonder if it's just me but it keeps happening," he vents to us.

"I've noticed it a few times. The best thing to do is not pussyfoot around it and just say it, but don't necessarily do it in a group setting unless she's saying them in a group setting. She doesn't realise that it can be toxic behaviour and I think a lot of it is reactionary and because of past trauma and issues that even she doesn't know she has from her previous relationships. Best thing to do is work through it with her and don't bring other issues into it, because she's go batshit," I advise him. He sits there and thinks for a second, before nodding and heading out to go and sort everything out with Erin. Tayla heads off to do the same with Grant, but on a lesser scale because Grant didn't have as big a role in it as Erin.
