" hello top two "

danny raised his finger in the air, his eyes locked with mine, and confidently declared, " yeah yeah "

i couldn't contain my excitement, so i blurted out, " just say it one more time please "

" hello top two "

" sup sugar " danny turned to the camera with a nostalgic smile, realizing that this would be our final storeroom interview together.

" how does it feel to be the final two of locked in season 4? "

i replied, speaking from the heart, " feels amazing "

danny grinned, his confidence shining through as he said, " it feels right, it was destined to be me and maeve " i couldn't help but smile back at him, grateful for his unwavering belief in me

danny chimed in, talking about our past nominations ," you put most dramatic and most entertaining together , you get me and vee "

" did either of you imagine being in the top two "

" not at all, i thought i was gonna get hate but i've been fine " danny placed his hand on my shoulder, giving it a comforting rub. he responded candidly, " oh, darling. yeah i knew i'd make it top two "

me and danny were lounging in the cozy living room, just enjoying each other's company. suddenly, sugar's voice echoed through the speakers, commanding our attention.

" maeve and danny, you are the final two housemates. please make your way to the challenge area," she announced.

danny couldn't resist adding a dramatic flair. " we're actually fighting till the death. " he exclaimed with a mischievous grin.

his comment caught me off guard, and i burst into laughter. " yeah, like literally swords and everything. " i chimed in, playing along.

danny, never one to back down, responded, " fighting till the death until there's blood. " we shared a laugh, fully embracing the absurdity of the situation.

with anticipation building, we walked into the challenge area, where everyone had gathered. as my eyes scanned the room, they landed on shannon, literally my person.

instantly, my heart swelled with emotion, and i couldn't contain myself. i rushed towards her, wrapping her in the tightest hug imaginable.

overwhelmed with happiness, she whispered, " i told you, babe, you'd win this. " her words filled me with a sense of pride, but k couldn't help but acknowledge her role in my journey. " if i win, you win because i had you by my side the whole time. without you, i wouldn't have been able to do it, " i confessed, gratitude evident in my voice.

danny and i positioned ourselves in the center as the other housemates took their seats. sugars voice rang out once again, requesting comments from the ex-housemates.

fu, always direct and honest, spoke up first. " maeve, we've been with you since day one, and i can't help but acknowledge your incredible manipulation skills. you played the game like a pro, and we're all proud of you. and my boy danny, personally i think your the ugliest housemate " he teased, "you brought so much life and energy into this place. your dog must be proud of you two. you both deserve to be standing there."

next, george had his turn. he turned to me and said, " maeve, we can definitely thank you for being the social butterfly of the house. you know how proud everyone is, and it's evident by you standing there. you should be really proud of yourself. "
