A Defining Mistake

Chapter 6 - Reunited (part 1)

Am I Enough Winners Together Again?

Two months after the disastrous finale of Am I Enough? it seems the ill-fated winners Ada Thorne and Luke Webb have reunited.

Eagle eyed fans of the show saw Luke arrive in Colchester's coach station on Friday night with a suitcase. He was collected by Ada in her recognisable purple mini often spotted on her Instagram.

The two of them then drove back to Ada's three bedroomed house and didn't emerge for three days. They were then spotted out for brunch, holding hands and kissing in a local Bill's restaurant.

Back in March, during the finale of Am I Enough? Ada and Luke were easy winners, winning with a 70% share of the votes. When they got to the final challenge, one reserved for winners only, Luke decided to steal the £100,000 cash prize from Ada while she chose to share it.

Post Am I Enough?, Ada has been focusing on her YouTube channel and it was recently announced that she would be joining UK band The Heap on the rest of their UK Tour. Luke has been touring the country's nightclubs for meet and greets with rumours of him being on the upcoming season of Celebrity Therapy.

"They've really missed each other," a source told us. "Their relationship only existed on television. Luke Luke and Ada have been uncharacteristically quiet on their social media accounts since they were spotted together on Friday night.

Both Ada and Luke's representation have declined to comment.

Ada sighed, aggressively scrolling through her Instagram feed. She'd just posted a picture of herself in a new pair of maroon jeans and without realising had caught Luke's shoes in the picture. Of course, her followers had noticed and were speculating wildly in the comments. She had been half tempted to take the photo down but knew that would only make it worse. They might not have picked up on it if she hadn't been spotted picking him up from the coach station.

"What's going on?" Luke flopped onto the bed, dripping hair spraying everywhere.

"I put a picture on Instagram and ya damn feet were in it," Ada nudged his feet, wiping away the droplets of water he'd flicked over her. "I didn't realise till it was too late and the comments have gone crazy."

"So?" Luke towel dried his head. "We're gonna have to announce it eventually? Can't just hide here forever and have no one know."

"Easy for you to say. You can't see the things they're saying."

"Is it bad?"

"Basically, they're all saying I'm a stupid mug."

"Babe," Luke pulled Ada into a hug. "I am the stupid one. I almost threw away everything for what? A dumb attempt to make us more famous. I'm the luckiest man in the world that you have given me another chance."

"Well what you said made sense," Ada sniffled into his shoulder. "We were the first couple not to split the money and were offered the most job opportunities afterwards."

"You were anyway," Luke replied, unable to fully hide the bitterness in his tone. He quickly recovered. "That was all I wanted. For us to be set for life. The prize money is child's play compared to what you've earned since we won. That's what bringing Tammy back was about as well, securing the win. Viewers love a journey and need to physically see the ups and downs to believe it. I would've told you what my plan was but I wasn't sure how to without it being caught on camera and besides, your reaction needed to be convincing."

"Yeah I know." Ada nodded, dropping her phone to pick at a hangnail on her finger.

"Don't listen to them babe," Luke kissed Ada on the forehead before releasing her to get dressed. "You and I know the truth and if we're happy then it doesn't matter what everyone else thinks. Don't look at the comments."
