Away From Reality - Jack Maynard - IM A CELEBRITY - COMPLETE

Jamie & The Shower

"Well, take you and Holly. You are always together because you have so much in common, and honestly, I think you're starting to feel for her. Now you've been split up, its a bit like half of you has gone. And I bet Holly is feeling the exact way you are right now."

"You think so?" I ask, and Jennie nods, giving my leg a gentle squeeze of encouragement when standing. "Let's get some sleep ok?"

"Yeah." I huff, forcing myself up from my comfortable position in my own arms. Trundling across the rocky floor to my hammock, it only dawns on me that Jennie is 100% correct, when I look to see Holly's empty hammock.

I miss her so much.

Jack P.O.V

"Good morning campers!" Dec cheerfully exclaims when walking into camp alongside his TV presenting partner. "Well done all yesterday with the trial. You've won one campmate's care package. Now the public has been voting for who they want to face the next bushtucker trial. Whoever has been voted will go up against a member of Snake Rock. That member is chosen completely by you. So... in no particular order...

Jack... It might be you,

Dennis, It's not you,

Iain, It's not you,

Jennie, It's not you,

Shappi, It's not you,

Which means Amir, it might be you."

"The person voted to face today's trial, the fright house, is... Amir. Please chose who you would like to face Amir in the trial, Prime Minister Iain please make your announcement, and then make your way to the clearing. Everyone else, good luck with the challenges."

"Cheers." I echo when they leave. Discussing it all between us, we come to the conclusion that Vanessa will be the best to face the trial, and after making the speech across the radio, Amir runs down to the clearing.

"Good luck!" We exclaim, clapping and waving when the two girls walk him to the bridge. Following their movement, my eyes fall on the treehouse, a place I haven't been to yet.

Making my way up the ladder and into the treehouse, it's extremely isolated but peaceful. You can see the whole jungle, and its almost like I'm the God over the rest of camp. Watching Dennis and Iain talking as well as Jennie and Shappi walking back down the pathway, the only thing that I wish I could see in this moment is Holly.

Holly P.O.V

"I just don't get it," I repeat. "Why wouldn't they want us to eat?"

"There has to be a reason why," Becky says as we lay on the uneven floor smothered in all sorts of animal entrails. "Like Iain would be derogatory, Dennis I don't think would care, Amir wouldn't understand, but Shappi and Jennie?"

"And Jack?" I add. "Like why?"

My stomach feels awfully painful, like intense cramping and rumbling. Sounding like a wild bear all the time when feeding on beans and rice, I don't know why the other camp wouldn't want us to eat.

"Maybe there is something in it for them?" Jamie suggests.

"What? Other than cake and a full meal for everyone?" I complain.

"Jack wouldn't do this to you Holly," Kez adds. "I mean I only saw you two together for like 20 minutes, but he does have a little thing for you."

"And I thought I had a little thing for him too," I admit honestly which expands the grin on Jamie's face.

But not forfeiting the food for us bearing in mind they'd just had a large meal? It's like they don't even care about their other campmates.

"Maybe, maybe Jack just isn't the guy I thought he was."

Jack P.O.V

"I got it! I won!" Amir screams like a little girl when waking me up from my daze. I'm still sat in the allotment, in the exact same place for 2 hours with the exact same girl on my mind. Her hair, her body, her personality, her humor, and her bright blue eyes.

"What are you doing Jack?" I whisper to my internal self when climbing down from the treehouse. Stopping myself to paint on a fake smile when walking over to Amir and his two silver tickets, that are given to Iain, it only takes a second for my frown to crack again.

"I'm gonna take a nap." I flatly speak. "Well done mate."

Jogging up to 10 Downing Creek, I close the door behind me and slump down onto the bed. "Jack mate." I curse to myself. "Just get a grip."

"I don't think you need to get a grip. I think you miss her." A deep voice answers my external thoughts. Raising my head above the pillow, I look up to see Iain staring right back at me.

"Hey mate."

"You want to talk?" He offers to which I just shrug. "Look, Jack, I know you really miss her. But she will be more than ok. Remember, Jamie is there with her. He will take care of her for sure."

Jamie P.O.V

"Jamie?" Holly asks me as I've dozed off on top of my allocated mat. "I'm gonna shower, could you pour the water for me?"

"Are you sure you aren't more comfortable with one of the girls doing it?" I assure. "I mean -"

"It's ok if you don't want to-"

"No I want to - " I stop her, but end up just embarrassing myself.

"Um, ok. Cool."

Following Holly's slim figure down beside the creek, and watching her strip down to her bikini, I begin to collect the water in one of the pots we have our food in, and feed it down the spout.

"That is so cold!" She squeals in a high-pitched British accent. With the water running down the curves of her hips, over the bright red fitting bikini bottoms and down past her chest, I have no choice but to stand and watch.

As the water drips through her hair, the colour changes from caramel to a dark brown colour. Each and every single drop plastering her face as she massages her body with the tip of her fingers, she does look incredibly attractive.

"Thanks, J." She shivers, hugging her arms as I jog to grab my towel and lay it around her shoulders.

"Anytime babe," I tell her, bringing her slim frame into a hug. Patting down her back and burrowing my face into the top of her hair, my fingers play with the strap of her bikini when she pulls away from me.

"What was the hug for?" She giggles as we walk back over to our main sleeping area where Becky and Vanessa are laying, and by Vanessa's expression, it's obvious the trial wasn't successful.

"I just think you're great." I smile, taking her into my chest again and placing a light kiss on her scalp.
