Connie P.O.V

The banquet was amazing, free of turkey testicles, maggots and other bush dishes! I feel so full, and having the privilege to eat it with my favourite people was amazing.

We all walk back into camp soon enough, and as soon as me and Sam walk in hand in hand, Carol, Scarlett and Lisa are all over us!

"AAHHH!" I squeal as I pull Scarlett into a hug with the rest of the girls, all jumping up and down.

"It's nice to have our two back!" Carol comments.

"Yeah! Nice to see you too Carol!" Adam says as he pulls Martin, Danny and Larry in for separate handshakes, Jordan receiving a full on bear hug.

"How was dinner?" Lisa asks reluctantly.

"Amazing!" I say, giving her a separate hug and sitting with her on the lit fire. It's pitch black now.

"Wait." I clock on. "If we've won immunity now, then I guess the first person to leave will be leaving tomorrow morning." I say. Everyone sees what I mean, as we all look around shocked. I don't wanna leave yet. I'm not ready to go. No-one is.

"So this is our last night together." I add lowly. It goes silent. Everyone crowds around the fire, full of food as the others had their rice and beans whilst our banquet was in progress.

"Yeah, I guess it is." Martin says. I feel Sam pull me in for a side hug as we all stare down into the fire. No one says anything.

"I can't believe, how amazing this has been." Sam comments.

"I know. Absolutely life changing." Wayne adds on.

"I'm never ever gonna forget this. I just wanna say, thank you to everyone around this fire now for making this experience so special." I say. I get a wave of "aw" and a side hug from Joel as he kisses my temple, rubbing circles into the side of my arm again.

"I feel as if independently, we can be really rubbish, but when we're a team, we're amazing." Joel says.

"Like the power rangers!" I smile earning a few laughs from Larry and Jordan.

"Yeah I mean-" Martin starts,"- you guys were already such a tiny group, and for you guys to welcome me and Danny so warmly into camp was just amazing, so thank you so much for that." He finishes as Lisa pats his shoulder.

"We've been so lucky to do this." Danny comments. "And we will never be able to do this again."

"To be with so many people who are kind, funny, respectful and just great people is just a blessing. This experience would have never been the same. Thank you." Carol says as I spot tears welling in her eyes. Scarlett pulls her in for a hug as we all applaud.

"Yeah, I mean, everyone in here is incredible in their own way." Joel starts. "We are the class of 2016, and I never ever thought that I'd come in here and make 10 brilliant friends." Joel says as he stands up for something.

"10? But there's 12 of us, you included." I ask as Joel takes my hand. He guides me onto my feet and takes both of my hands in his. He stares me in the eyes.

"I know I said 10-" he starts as I look over to every other campmate. They are all listening with open ears and massive grins, some look like they know what Joel's about to do.

"Because I was hoping that the 11th person could be more. Connie, you have been my rock and my best friend in here. I feel every time I'm away from you I'm missing something. As everyone has said, your kind, funny, respectful, talented and unbelievably beautiful. So Connie Richards-" he says as he squeezes my hands tighter.
