The girls were upstairs doing their finishing touches on their outfits. Amelie had opted for a sea green halter dress with white pearl heels and she had left her hair in it's natural curly state and did a half up do. She opted for minimal makeup excluding the brown lip combo she chose. One by one the women went downstairs and sat with their partners. Amelie was last to go down, she held the bottom of her dress as she walked down the stairs.Rob stood there in a simple white button down shirt, black dress pants and a black suit jacket, "You look, wow." Amelie grinned as she did a quick spin, "Thank you boyfriend." Rob grinned as he interlaced their arms, "I will never get tired of hearing you call me that." Amelie grinned as the pair made their way to the fire pit where the remaining islanders sat.
Miguel spoke as Amelie and Rob sat down, "You guys, we clean up good." Rob nodded in agreement, "We really do."
JaNa spoke as the islanders gravitated towards the island in the garden, "Champagne!" The islanders sipped champagne and enjoyed each other's company before it was time for each couple to do their speeches. Serena and Kordell were up first. Serena got a little choked up as she spoke, "You saw something in us before I could even admit it. And lord knows how happy I am that you never gave up. No matter how many times I tried to escape my feelings for you, I always found myself drawn back to you. You got me!"Amelie clapped with a smile as Serena and Kordell sat down and JaNa and Kenny got up for their speeches. JaNa spoke with a hundred percent genuineness, "Words can't describe
how grateful I am for our paths to have crossed. You're the sweetest, most kindest soul I've ever met. As our connection started to grow stronger and deeper, my self-doubt of deserving happiness and my insecurities slowly started to fade away." Amelie gasped in awe as JaNa began to speak in Spanish. As she sat down all the women cheered. Serena spike causing all the women to laugh, "Bilingual queen!"It was now Miguel and Leah's turn to do their speeches. Amelie smiled widely as Miguel began, tears of happiness for Leah began to fill Amelie's eyes as Miguel spoke, "I know that to you, there are sides that perhaps you are even ashamed of. But to me, there's a blinding light that far outshines all of those shortcomings." Amelie smiled softly, feeling immense happiness that Leah found someone who got her and appreciated all the sides of her. Leah began to speak as her speech, "If you would have told me that I was going to end up here with the guy who came in and made out with every single one of my friends, I would believe you." Amelie bursted out laughing as Leah spoke, "You know I like them a little toxic. Just kidding."
It was finally time for Rob and Amelie to give each other their speeches. Amelie was slightly nervous as Rob smiled widely at her as he began to read what he'd written. "Ames, my beautiful, genuine, kind, loving and incredibly intelligent girl. I walked in the villa on day one and I saw a beautiful woman in a blue dress laughing and I knew. I knew I wanted-no needed to get to know the girl in the blue dress. 6 weeks later I stand in front of the girl in the blue dress. I have never known someone with such a fiery personality and yet such a loving soul. I do not know what I did to deserve to be loved by someone like you but I will spend the rest of my life trying to find the way to return even a fraction of the love you have shown me."
Amelie smiled in awe at him as she sniffled as tears filled her eyes, "Rob.." Rob smiled softly at her, "I love you Amelie." Amelie smiled as the seated islanders shared smiles with each other at Rob's speech. Amelie smiled as she nervously laughed, "Okay I guess it's my turn now." She unfolded the paper and cleared her throat.
"Rob, I grew up in a loud family. My five siblings, 8 Tia's and Tio's and more nieces and nephews than I can count. So calmness and quiet wasn't really something I experienced growing up." Amelie's eyes began to water as she continued, "And for most of my life I truthfully thought that I was unworthy of love, I've only been in one serious relationship and that changed my perspective on what love looked like and what I deserved. I came into this experience and compared myself to a venomous snake, then I coupled up with someone who catches snakes and moves them to more hospitable habitats. I soon realized that you did it with me as well. You picked me up and changed me. I know now that I am worthy of love and someone will love me." Rob looked like he was about to start crying, "Are you serious? A snake metaphor? You really are the one for me." Amelie laughed as she kissed him.
