Love Island 2023

Morning 🌞

The bright lights flashed on signaling their second morning in the villa. As a result, the white walls reflected the beaming light straight into the islander's eyes as a good morning call.

 Jonathan moaned in discomfort as he slung his only free arm over his eyes to escape the rude awakening. If there was one thing he hated it was their unnatural alarm clock. He couldn't even throw the alarm out the window like he had down numerous times before.

Cherry buried herself deeper into Jonathan's side as Shaq bellowed out a cheerful good morning. Neither of them appreciated their early awakening, nor the loud volume of noise the other islanders seemed to enjoy making.

"Ugh!" Jonathan groaned pulling Cherry into a better position under the covers. The mother of two had yet to make a sound as she dozed off on his chest once again. 

They both stayed quiet as Ron questioned Tom on his first night in the villa. Jonathan smirked as the boy was being grilled left and right, they had only been in in the villa four hours before the lad. They knew as much as he did.

"Big decision today mate"

"I reckon he loves a bed for himself though" Kai chuckled over at the boy directly in front of him. 

"No, I miss a little thing in my bed, bro" Tom chuckled his eyes lingering on the red-haired angel in the bed beside his. He had the power tonight and all the boys knew it, Jonathan was more than aware of Tom's lingering eyes even if he was half asleep.

"Well it's a busy day for you Tom" Olivia smiled as she battered her eyes in his direction. It was clear to everyone Olivia was gasping for a conversation with the new hot bombshell. 

"Indeed it is" Jonathan muttered before looking down at the gorgeous girl who was letting out small tuffs of air onto his chest.

Half an hour later Cherry was pulled from her bed in a disheveled state. It had been so long since she had a lie in she forgot what it felt like. Usually Cherry would be up at six o'clock at the very latest, she had too many obligations to afford to sleep any later.

She decided then that she would lie in any chance she could get in here.

"Alright boys, how are you feeling about last night?" Shaq asked starting off the morning debrief with an excited attitude. 

"Will?"

"Do you know what, I am a bit worried" Will admits as he leans back onto the long sun bed. "I only chat with a girl that I like one hundred percent and with Olivia that's not there. So I have to go around and have a chat with everyone, I guess"

"Yeah, yeah"

"Good morning cutie" Tanyel cooed pulling Cherry into a warm hug as they settled down in the villa terrace for their morning girl chat. Cherry was the only girl who hadn't watched the previous seasons, she didn't know what the standard protocol was for anything. It was a learn-as-you-go moment for her.

"Hello Darlings, did everyone have a good sleep?" Cherry asked as she took a sip of her temperate water. 

"I had the best night's sleep! I can't believe I'm really here" Anna-May exclaimed pouncing on the last remaining space to Cherry's left-hand side, she was going to sit beside her role model any chance she could grasp.

"I felt bad for last night because when Will gave Cherry the foot massage, I kind of gave him a look saying not to come near me and that's why I think he went for you, Cherry" Olivia drawled out much too Cherry's confusion, she was watching the whole thing, and Will never made a move in Olivia's direction.
