Connie P.O.V

I wake up slowly. As I look into the sky, it's only just becoming light. It's not pitch black, and not bright. It looks like the sky would at around 7am.

I shut my eyes for a while, but I can't drift off, so I swing my legs over the side off my hammock and walk down to the dungy.

After I've gone to the toilet, I brush my teeth and splosh my face with water, before trooping back towards camp at the sound of the morning jungle creatures waking up. When I get back to the camp, the boys are still sound asleep, so I start playing around with the utensils we've been given for cooking as I sit on the jungle floor.

I put them down, and go to pull my shorts up a little, but realise the black stuff on my hands. The charcoal from the fire. I stand up and walk past Wayne who's sound asleep in his hammock, but then I remember.

The boys need a little payback.

I stand by Wayne and whisper his name a few times to see if he is awake. No reply. I then reach down, and draw warrior paint on his cheeks. I would of drawn something rude, but we are going to be on national TV with Ant and Dec in an hour, and I don't know how easy it is to get this stuff off.

After drawing ridiculous warrior paint on his face, I run up to Adam's hammock and see if he's awake. When I realise he isn't, I do it again to him, and the same for Joel. I quickly run to the dungy again to wash off what I can of the black from my fingers so they don't suspect it was me.

When I come back, I see Joel sat beside the fire. It takes everything not to laugh at how he hasn't noticed, but I walk over naturally with a different plan.

"Good morning sunshine." Joel says to me as I sit beside him and he pecks my lips good morning. I pretend to look really confused as I gesture at his face.

"What's with the black paint?" I ask him suspiciously. "Adam?"

"What paint?" He says as we wipes his face and looks at the black now on his hands.

"Adam is so god damn annoying!" He exclaims as I just giggle.

"Who's annoying?" I hear a morning voice say. I turn to see Wayne stretching beside his hammock before sitting beside Joel and me in the red chair by the fire.

"Adam got you too then." I say and gestures towards his face and then at his own. It takes everything not to laugh this time.

"Oh he's gonna pay for this." Wayne says as he realises and I just smile down at the ground. "Hey Adam." he shouts over to his hammock.

"What?" I hear a croaky voice shout from his own bed.

"Care to explain?" Wayne says as he points to his face and Joel's.

"What you on about. Whoa, what happened to you?" he says as he sits up. Joel and Wayne just look over at Adam and then at each other when they realise he was the warrior paint on too. All of a sudden, all three boys slowly look over at me and I finally break into fits of laughter.

"Oh my god Connie, you sneak!" Joel exclaims as he finally realises and pulls me into a hug.

"That's why you don't hug me whilst your soaking wet." I say as Adam joins us beside the fire.

"I quite like it actually." Adam says proudly.

"Yeah, your just lucky I didn't draw anything rude!" I say, making all of us giggle. Joel reaches over and wipes his fingers on the utensils. He then reaches back up and paints the warrior mark on my cheeks and forehead too.

"Loving it!" I smile as we all just discuss random topics afterwards, waiting for the two boys to arrive.

"Hello celebrities." I hear a Geordie exclaim as I turn to see the two boys. As they approach, I see the confused looks on their faces, but they stay professional.
