"Good morning, islanders!" Kaylor says happily as the electric blinds roll up like they do every morning.
Normally I would get up to start getting ready for the day while Leah and Elena talked, but this morning felt different. After telling Elena I was starting to fall in love with her- I didn't want to be away from her, but at the same time I'd be lying if I said Andrea wasn't on my mind.
"Well, good morning love birds." Leah says smiling as she made her way to the bed, and sat down. "Rob I love you like a brother, and it's because I view you as a brother that I want you to listen to me when I say this" My heart was pounding. I had no clue what she was going to say- if it was good or bad. All I could do was nod my head to insure her I was listening. "If you hurt her in any way- I will never forgive you, and I will make sure you have no chance in Hell of Elena ever coupling up with you again." She says while looking directly into my eyes and she ends with a smile, but I know without having to think much of it- not a single part of her was joking in any way though I was a little confused as to why she'd say something like that out of the blue.
"I may have told her about our conversation form last night." Elena says clearing up my confusion while laughing.
"Well it's a good thing I don't plan on ever hurting her, or putting anything involving her or our connection at risk." I say, but I can't ignore the striking feeling of guilt in my chest. I am starting to fall in love with Elena, but the fact Andrea is clouding my thoughts right now is causing the guilt. "I should go catch up with the guys, and get ready for the day." I needed an excuse to leave the conversation, and not be questioned. It wasn't an entire lie though- I did have to get ready for the day.

Nearly everyone was outside at this point except for Leah and Elena, and that didn't come to a surprise to anyone at all. I was sitting on the bean bags with JaNa and Serena while they tried listening in on the conversation between Connor and Andrea that was happening at the fire pit not too far from us.
"Act normal. They're coming over to us." JaNa says causing me to laugh, and Conner pulls a bean bag next to JaNa and plops down putting his arm around her shoulders.
"He's basically in love with you, JaNa. You have a keeper for sure." Andrea says as she walks by, and she sends me a small smile with a wink before finding someone else to talk to.
"How was your talk with her?" JaNa asks Connor, and he shrugs.
"It was fine I guess. There wasn't much to it with her and I- the connection just isn't there." He says making JaNa smile. "You though" I look up to see Connor looking directly at me. "She has her mind set on you, bro. After I told her I didn't feel the connection with her- she went on to say that are her number one, and she will "do whatever it takes to get you" and she sees serious about it too." He says. I can't help but welcome the smile that creeps on to my face. I have an attraction to Andrea that I can't explain, but at the same time I also have Elena who I truly am falling for.
"Where are you going?" I ask confused when I see JaNa stand from her bean bag.
"I'm going to find Leah and Elena." She says while fixing her swim suit cover up. "I, uh, I want to make sure they're okay." She's lying- I can tell by the way she hesitated in her sentence. I know she's only going to find them to tell Elena about the conversation Connor told us about, and I'm even more certain of that thought when she takes off running to the staircase that lead up to the makeup room where Elena and Leah sat together.

At some point in time some of the producers and crew had come to the villa to set us a huge breakfast for us, and we were all ready to dig in. There was food and fruit covering the counters, and all kinds of drink options in the coolers beside us- once Elena, JaNa, and Leah came down, it was time to eat.
