15; YOU AND GEORGE?!

nothing else really happens the rest of the night and we all head to bed early for a long day of content tomorrow.

i wake up the next morning and get semi ready for the day before heading to the communal kitchen. i walk in and it's only grace and george that are awake, i can hear them talking but as soon as i arrive, they stop. "hello?" i say slightly confused at the sudden silence, way to make it obvious guys. i was worried what grace might have said because i don't want george to know i told her anything.

george's pov (flashback to 5 minutes ago)

i couldn't sleep very well last night due to the heat so i was first awake in the kitchen. i was up for about 10 minutes before grace joined me in the kitchen. "morning, is it just you?" she asks. "yeah is that alright?" i laugh. "yeah s'alright was just half expecting you to wake up with elena" she smirks. "what makes you say that?" i ask. "i see you two, flirting. i can tell you like her" grace says teasing me. "who said that?" i look around jokingly. "come onnnn, you need to ask her out. you two would be a fit couple" she nudges my side. "yeah but i'm not sure she wants me like that right now" i shrug. "shut the fuck up. you and me both know she'd get with you in a matter of minutes if you asked" she says, grabbing a glass of water. "how do YOU know that?" i ask. has elena told her about her feelings. as if on cue, elena appears and we both go silent. "hello" she says but it comes out more like a question.

back to elena's pov
"morning babe" grace responds. "did you sleep alright?" george says. "yeah not too bad" i smile. he had his arm resting up on the chair and so badly wanted to go over and hug him but i was conscious of grace stood staring at us and i know if she caught any form of PDA she wouldn't let me live it down so i just stayed away. we were told to help ourselves to any food so i began to make some food. "go sit down, i put some extra toast in" george says to me. "oh, thank you. you didn't have to do that" i laugh, not expecting him to make me breakfast. "see, husband material already" grace winks and i laugh. grace and i head outside into the garden area and wait for george to finish making breakfast. grace didn't want toast so she made herself some cereal. the three of us sat and spoke for a while before the others all started slowly waking up and joining us. we were told we had 30 minutes before we needed to be down at the beach so i went back to my room and go changed into some more appropriate clothes, all jack wills branded of course and we headed down. they wanted to film a love island style slow mo video of us all jokingly running down to the beach. it was funny until i tripped over the step and almost fell. luckily i grabbed onto george's arm but i knew that was going to be clipped and posted to tiktok fan pages later on.

we spend most of the day on the beach getting all sorts of content for the jack wills socials and website.
when we get back to the villa i check the comments on what they had already posted and it was just everyone shipping george and i which made me laugh. like yes, i grabbed his arm but other than that there's not much proof of us spending time together online so it's funny how they ship us automatically. it's like they just know.

i have a shower and get changed into a dress as we were having a party this evening with a surprise DJ. i was sat on the floor in front of the mirror, doing my makeup when there's a knock at the door. "come in" i shout. it was george, topless and suddenly the room is getting a little warm. "hello" i turn around and smile. "hello, you don't happen to have any aftersun do you? my back is killing me, i can't even move without feeling like my skins gonna rip off" i laugh at him stood hopelessly in my door way as red as a lobster. "yes, come in" i laugh. i search around my bathroom and find the aftersun i remembered to buy in the airport. "thank you, you're a lifesaver" he says and starts applying it to his front. "do you want a hand with your back?" i ask. "if you wouldn't mind. thank you" i squeeze some lotion into my hands and begin rubbing his back whilst he finishes his front. he eventually turns round and says, "thank you". i look up and smile. we make eye contact and before i know it, we're kissing again. however, we suddenly broken apart by the noise of a phone dropping on the floor. i look up and grace is stood in the doorway of the corridor between our rooms, mouth wide open and she's stood in shock which caused her to drop her phone. "i feel like i just watched my parents make out!" she shouts in shock. we both just laugh and break apart, i do begin to look at the floor in slight embarrassment but grace breaks the silence once again, "if you're gonna shag please give me some warning so i can put my ear plugs in" "for fuck sake, george is leaving now anyways" i raise my eyebrows at him and laugh and he gets the signal. he doesn't say a word, just laughs and leaves.
"what. the. fuck" grace says. "why are you so shocked? it's happened many times before" i laugh. "HAS IT? i didn't realise it was that serious. i thought it was like flirty banter, not THAT" she's acting like we'd just shagged right in front of her face. "we just kissed!" i laugh. "i know but it's like, you AND GEORGE. like my george, george clarkey. i never thought i'd see that crossover in my life!" she's still in shock. "me neither to be honest" i laugh and continue getting ready. "anyways, i wanted to borrow a hairdryer but i got a lot more than i wanted to see there" she says, walking into my bathroom. "please don't tell anyone, literally no one knows" i say, applying my mascara. "i won't but i feel like people will catch on soon and make sure no one else catches you out" she points her finger at me, just like my mum does. "well i didn't even hear you coming otherwise i would've stopped!" i laugh. "hmm sure. too busy having a good time" she smirks. "right! get out now, come on" i laugh, pushing her out the room jokingly.

i sigh and finish getting ready. we all head out by the pool and the party had been set up all nice for us and it was truly impressive. we had as much alcohol as we wanted and trust me, it was a lot. i was already quite drunk but i was having fun which is all that matters. the surprise dj was now about to appear and we all gathered around for their arrival. it was then revealed to be fred again and george baggs lost his mind. he kept going up to him and telling him he loved him and he was his favourite dj of all time.

i didn't know many of his original songs but he played mainly popular music just mashed up so i knew most of the ones he played. i was beginning to feel a bit tired so i went and sat down at one of the tables that was laid out for dinner earlier. "where's she off to?" i hear george say to grace. "no clue" grace shrugs, too busy sipping her vodka cranberry. i sit down and i don't feel too great. "you alright?" i hear george say as he joins me at the table. "no" i say with my head in my hands. "do you wanna go back to your room?" he asks. i look up and nod. "come on" he says and helps me up. i can hardly walk in a straight line but thankfully george guides me in the general direction.
we make it back to my room and i immediately tell george i need to be sick. thankfully, i make it to the bathroom with george's help and he holds my hair back as i'm being sick, in true boyfriend fashion... even though he's not my boyfriend. i end up being sick 3 times before standing up. "feel better?" george asks. "a little bit, but i want to go bed" i slur my words. "okay, come on then" george says and leads me back to my bed. at this point it was sensory overload and my adhd couldn't handle it. i just wanted to rip all my clothes off. i started aggressively tugging at my clothes "off" was all i could say. "do you want me to help you?" george asks. i just nod. "are you sure? you're okay with me taking off your clothes?" he asks as if he hasn't already seen me naked but i respect him asking regardless. but in all honesty i didn't care how the clothes got off me as long as they were off. i wanted something lightweight and baggy to wear to bed and none of the clothes i packed were that. "can i wear your tshirt?" i asked george, my speech barely comprehendible. "yeah i'll go grab you one. are you okay on your own? stay exactly like that" he says and quickly leaves the room. less than an minute later he returns with a tshirt for me and i smile as he helps me put my arms through and now i'm more comfortable. i climb under the covers, ready to sleep. "i'll go grab you some water and then call it a night" i just nod. a few minutes later, george comes back in with a glass of water and places it on my bedside table for me and gets up to leave the room. "no" i cry out. "what's wrong?" he comes over, stroking my face sticking out of the duvet. "you have to stay" i whisper. "what is it a legal requirement?" he jokes. i just pout and eventually he gives in. "fine" he sighs but really he was happy that i asked. he gets into bed in his boxers and i roll over and cuddle into him and within seconds i'm fast asleep.

the next day, i'm awoken by a knock on the door. i groggily open my eyes, "come in" i saw through a yawn. between the door opening and my response i feel george on me and quickly yank the covers over his sleeping body. the thought of suffocation not even crossing my mind, as his body was endoused in bed sheets to hide the fact we were in bed together. "you need to come down within 5 minutes. breakfast is ready. oh and also, have you seen george he's not in his room?" max asks peering through the door. "no i haven't, maybe he's gone for a walk or something. know what he's like" i try to laugh and play it off. "bloody idiot he is, i'll have a look. see you in a bit" max says as he closes the door.
as soon as the door closes, george rises from the covers, "trying to suffocate me?" he exclaims. "sorry, i didn't know who it was at the door" i say through laughter. "maybe we need to make an announcement because i don't want to die keeping this a secret" he laughs. "i'm sorry" i say, leaning into his chest. "please forgive me" i pout and look into his eyes. "i suppose so" he rolls his eyes and kisses me on the lips.
