Joel Dommett - Jungle Love (I'm A Celebrity Fanfiction)

The final trial

Connie P.O.V

I end up just messing around with Adam for the next half an hour whilst Joel is doing his trial.

"How do you think Joel's doing?" Adam asks me as he tries to sit on the air filled ball without toppling over. I run at him and jump on the ball as well, so we just end up piled up next to each other laughing on the floor.

"Oh I'm sure he's doing fine." I say as I take his hand and pull him up from the ground.

"Hey hey hey!" I hear Adam shout over my shoulder. I look over to spot Joel walking through the trees, his hair ruffled up and his skin a little pale.

"I feel so sick now." He exclaims as he reaches me and hugs me into his chest.

"Bless you. You had the eating trial didn't you?" I guess as he takes a swig from his bottle.

"Yep." He replies. He explains the trial to us as I fill my water bottle at the water bags and get ready to leave camp myself.

"Fish eyes, gross!" Adam says as he bounces up and down on the yoga ball.

"Did you get all 5 stars?" I ask.

"Yeah I did!" He exclaims as I go up and he gives me a side hug once again.

"Well done babe." I say as he kisses my forehead and walks over towards Adam.

"It's my turn! Whoopee!" I say as I throw my hands in the air sarcastically.

"You got this Connie." Adam shouts.

"Connie, Connie, Connie!" They chant as I stroll down the path.

I walk across the bridge, looking over the lower canopy of the jungle. It's beautiful up here. I can feel my heart inside my chest and my blood pumping through my veins as I reach the end, and take the short walk to the clearing.

"Hello!" I say as I spot the two presenters.

"Hiya Connie." Dec greets as I stand opposite them. I look around past a rock face and through the trees. No big contraptions, no underground stuff, no water. Just a rock face.

"So how are you?" Ant asks.

"I'm alright, nervous. Amazed that I'm still here, I mean, I never thought I would make the final three, ever." I say.

"This is your final trial." Dec says.

"Yeah I know. It's gonna be so hard isn't it. But I'm gonna do it. I mean, the boys have brought back all the stars, so I can't let them down now."  I say.

"Ok, so shall we explain to you what the trial is?" Dec asks me.

"Go for it!" I answer.

"Ok, so this, is 'Cavern of claws'" Ant says.

"Right." I say anxiously.

"What will happen, is you will lay inside the cavern behind you. You have 5 minutes to find the 5 stars hidden inside the cavern in the dark. The first star is for your dessert. The second is for Adam's and the third is for Joel's. The forth star is for a drink for yourself, and the fifth is for a little treat. It's pretty straight forward, but obviously, there will be some critters in there with you as well." Dec tells me.

"It's your last trial ever, do you wanna do it?" Ant asks.

"Yeah, lets go!" I say. I feel my heart speed up again and myself start to shake. I'm doing this for Joel and Adam, and all the other campmates that have won me food over the past 3 weeks. I can't let them down now.

I'm given a pair of goggles and I slip them over my pony tail and place them over my eyes. A ranger lifts the door off of the cavern. It's pitch black in there.
