Hey guys!

A bit more comments would be nice, it works motivating and makes sure I write sooner and with more pleasure. I hope you all enjoy the story. Here's the next chap!

"Spin the bottle? Are we twelve?" Aiden huffs as they get told what to do in the evening.

"You shouldn't be surprised this is included. It's a classic." Louis shrugs. "So, has everybody brushed their teeth? Aten a mentor? Or a mint?"

The group laughs and nods so they are going to sit down, bottle in the middle.

"Who is going to start?" Sara asks.

"I'll go first!" Kendall suggests. She spins the bottle and it lands on Aiden. They kiss quickly and they go on like that for a bit until there is said by one of the crewmembers that this is the last round and they are free to do whatever they want to do.

"Okay, Danielle, spin it!" Louis cheers on. During the game he has kissed both Aiden and Sara. They were nice snogs."

"Alright, here I go." she says out loud, but leaning close to Louis as she whispers that she hopes it stops at his end.

"Taylor!" Kendall cheers. "Go kiss her, girl!" Danielle walks over to Taylor and cups her cheek, kissing her softly. They have a good snog and both girls blush when their lips disconnect.

"Good job, guys!" Jamie, one of the crewmembers, says. "Now the bar is open and feel free to party and get to know each other more."

The cameras still stay of course but Jamie is off, not having to give orders anymore. They are free now to do whatever they please. Danielle walks over to Taylor and they move to the side of the swimming pool while Aiden walks up to Louis.

"Hey there." He smiles "I forgot to tell you; you look nice."

"Cheers mate, not looking too bad yourself." Louis winks.

"I got you a drink." Aiden offers Louis a purple cocktail and Louis gives him a thankful smile, accepting the drink.

The two of them chat until Kendall walks over to the two of them, stealing Aiden away for a chat.

Louis turns around and decides to join Harry, Sara and Mitch. The three of them are laughing and it seems the most fun to be right now.

"Hi there, mind if I join?" Louis asks, taking place anyway.

"The more, the merrier right?" Mitch smiles and Sara giggles, literally giggles and so she does apparently with every single thing Mitch says. They are still sitting together, the four of them, but Mitch and Sara only have eyes for each other.

"They are really into each other already, huh?" Louis whispers into Harry's ear while playing with the straw of his cocktail.

"They are not the only ones. I'm pretty sure we're very single after the next couple up." Louis doesn't understand what Harry means but when he follows Harry's finger he sees Taylor and Danielle making out at the border of the pool, feet in the water.

"Damn, I think this is the fastest I have been dumped. Painful." Louis puts his hand on his heart, acting over dramatically. He is happy for Danielle though. He didn't feel anything romantic towards her, he never does really, he is just upset that she was supposed to be his safe 'get laid' option and now she is indeed getting laid but not by him.

Harry chuckles at Louis' statement but then his face turns serious.

"I'm scared I'm going to be out soon. Look at how everybody has found their person?" Louis looks around and indeed he sees what Harry means. Sara is hanging at Mitch's lips not literally, Taylor does literally at Danielle's lips and Aiden and Kendall seem to get along as well.

"It's pretty soon to find your person." Louis says. "This is what? The second day? Soon there's going to be someone new as well and then everybody gets broken up."

"Not if they have found their soulmates."

"What's the chance?" Louis rolls his eyes. "We have been here for two days, Harry. You are stressing too much."

"I'm not because right now if someone new walks in, I'm single and I have to go home."

"Or I have to."

"Do you want to go home?"

"Obviously not, do you?"

"No, I'm not going home with my prince or princess charming."

"Cute." Louis chuckles. "Hey Curly, we're friends, right?"

"Right." Harry nods.

"Why don't we make an agreement?"

"Agreement?" Harry raises his eyebrow.

"Yeah, an agreement. We always choose each other during the coupling up so we can stay on the island as long as possible."

Harry seems to think about it, finger resting on his chin but then he looks at Louis.

"But what if you or I find someone new and we fall in love? I don't want to risk to miss out on love because of this arrangement, Lou."

"Well, no strings attached." Louis shrugs "because it's not like we are a real couple. We just choose each other as long as neither of us has found someone. If you find someone, I'm happy for you, no hard feelings."

"Same goes for you." Harry nods. "So we're doing this then? We're going to couple up next round?"

"Yeah and don't worry about loyalty, mate. If you want to snug someone or whatever that's totally fine. We're just each other's insurance. Is that okay with you?"

"It is fine for you that we don't couple up if I have found someone?"

"Of course that's fine. That's why you are here."

"Why are you here then?"

"Drunk night, signed up by friends." Louis laughs, the memory vivid in his brain.

"I feel like I'm using you." Harry sighs. "I don't want- This show is about love, Louis and we don't love each other."

"Yeah but how do you have the chance to find love if you are out immediately? Come on, Haz, don't overthink it." Louis really hopes the curly boy agrees. This is perfect. Like this he is sure that he will stay for a while, there is no strings attached so he can do whatever the fuck he wants without worrying about his spot on the island.

"I guess you are right. So we are really doing this then?"

"We are." Louis agrees.

"Alright, we will couple up."

A huge grin appears on Louis' face and he raises his glass, gesturing at Harry to do the same with his. The glasses touch as Louis speaks.

"To the best holiday ever." He says staring at Harry's green eyes.

"To finding love." Harry speaks before drinking up his glass.
