001. WELCOME TO LOVE ISLAND
⤷ Now, Juna wasn't going to sit there and lie. She was absolutely nervous. Truly freaking out. Smoothing out her baby yellow floral dress, Juna exited the Mercedes quickly, thanking the driver. The moon had quickly set over Fiji and the entrance of the Villa was littered with twinkling fairy lights. The moon had settled high in the sky, shining down at her. Juna took a deep breath, tucking a strand of her dark brown hair behind her ear as she mustered up the courage to walk to the front door.
"Hello?" A sweet voice called out. Following the sound, Juna neglected all other sights, walking quickly towards the kitchen area. "Who's there?" A pretty girl with vibrant blue eyes, and a matching blue dress popped out. Her red lips curled into a smile. "Hi!" The girl exclaimed, "You're so pretty. I'm Kaylor."
Smiling back sweetly Juna rushed forward, engulfing her in a hug. "Awe thank you!" Juna gushed. "You're gorgeous too babe, I'm Juna. Or Demitra." Kaylor furrowed her brows. Clarifying, Juna sighed. "My name is Demitra Juna, but most people call me either Juna or Demitra."
Nodding, Kaylor's smile brighten. "Nice to meet you, Juna." Holding hands, they walked further into the Villa together. Their curious gazes looked around before looking back at each other. Juna eyes flickered around everywhere. They first settled on the glowing pool, then the kitchen and then numerous seating spots. She couldn't wait until she could settle her feet into the grass and feel the summer sun on her skin. Juna was in desperate need for a tan. They couldn't help the grin that formed. "Wait I didn't get to ask you, where are you from? Your accent.. I couldn't really tell where it's from."
"I'm from North London, but I spent a bit of my childhood growing up in Australia so my accents kind of meshed together." Kaylor nodded, dropping their hands as she moved strands of hair out of her face. Juna's eyes raked over Kaylor. From the way her hair was curled, to her makeup, and the way the baby blue dress brought out her strikingly blue eyes. "And you? Where are you from?"
"Pittsburgh." Cutting their bonding session short, Juna spotted a neon green figure moving towards them. Moving forward quickly, Juna and Kaylor greeted the new girl warmly, both taking turns to hug and introduce themselves.
"I'm Serena! It's nice to meet you guys." Serena said cheerfully, moving her braids over her shoulder. "I feel like I'm in a literal barbie dream house." The three girls held hands as they moved towards the champagne bucket excitedly. Kaylor popped the cork and poured their drinks quickly, clearing her throat to make a cheers.
Clinking their glasses, Kaylor began, "Here's to hot ass men and being best friends forever, and memories!" Serena and Juna giggled simultaneously, with Juna leaning on Serena as she placed her drink down. "What do you guys do for work? I'm a student, well I just finished studying."
"Oh that's nice," Juna chimed in. "I'm an Art Curator, what did you study in?"
"Psychology, but I plan on going back to get my Masters in Austim behaviour analysis." Juna and Serena hummed in response, smiling at Kaylor. Even though Juna had only just met Kaylor and Serena. She could just tell their energy was so kind and welcoming. Yes, this was a summer for love, but platonic love was just as important as romantic. That was something that Juna had struggled to recognise in her former years, giving up almost everything in pursuit of love. She hoped to establish a good bond with the two girls, and the other ones to come.
