After us, Jack and Dani went and their speeches had me very close to tears. It's amazing to think that they've been together since the very start and they're still together now
Last up was Josh and Kaz, and knowing that this was our last night in the Villa broke my heart
When all the speeches were finished, we headed onto the dance floor and danced the Salsa, I was very impressed with Sam and his moves
Natasha: This has been one hell of a rollercoaster ride, I have seen people who I love walk out that door, like Georgia, Rosie, Ellie, Charlie, Eyal, Steph, Wes, and Alexandra, and now I'm in the final with the boy I love and my best mate. I have had the summer of my life but now it's nearly time to face reality again. I thought I would be scared of it, but I'm not because I know that as long as Sam is by my side, I'll be fine
Dancing with Sam was loads of fun and it was the most fun party ever, we were all laughing and having an amazing time. As soon as the beat was going to drop in the song 'This is What You Came For' I grabbed Sam's hand and we jumped in the pool
Sam: I can't be more thankful to have met this amazing girl and I am completely in love with her, but now I get to experience life with her outside of the Villa and I am beyond excited for our future together
After the party, we were all soaking wet and were sent inside to change into other clothes

"Let's do this, lads!" Josh clapped and we walked outside together, hearing the crowd cheer. All of us made our way to the firepit and we sat in our couples with Caroline
"Here they are, our Love Island finalists!" Caroline announced us "So Sam, how was the final night in the Villa?"
"It was insane, I just think everyone has been on such a journey in here and tonight was all of us sort of just showing how far we've all come together and now people are leaving in relationships and in love" He winked at me
"And how did you find his speech, Tasha?" She asked me
"It was so amazing, I've never had anyone say such nice things about me and actually mean it, he had me in tears, honestly" I shook my head and laughed before looking at the other girls "And I won by the way"
"Won what?" Jack asked
"We had a competition to see who's speech would make their boy the most emotional, and I won" I winked at Sam and kissed his cheek
"Fair enough, you did" Dani laughed
We sat there listening and laughing as Caroline asked the other Islanders questions about their experience in the villa, and when she asked Josh what he would miss the most he answered
"Waking up next to these people, because they are my friends for life now, we have such a close bond and despite everything, this has been the best experience of my life. So I'd say the challenges and waking up next to these guys every day, especially Tasha who's been in the bed next to me for nearly 2 months"
"Awww" I teased
"Well good luck tonight guys" Caroline clapped "So the DBS have done their final bits and now it is time to pack our suitcases, say goodbye to the villa, and carry them home, well Tasha's going to have to carry 2" I laughed slightly "This has been an unbelievable summer so now sit back as we watch the best bits, this is the story of Love Island 2018!"
We turned our attention to the screen and saw a video being played of our experience in here
"Oh my god" I wiped a tear after the video "That was so good"
"I can't believe how much we've been through" Sam kissed my cheek "But we've done it all together"
"And I wouldn't have it any other way" I grinned and turned my head to kiss him
"Guys, we need to stand" Josh hissed, so Sam and I hurriedly got to our feet and stood in line with the other Islanders, when Caroline stood to face us
"Dani and Jack, Kaz and Josh, Laura and Paul, and Tasha and Sam. I can reveal that the couple in fourth place, is" I held my breath "KAZ AND JOSH!" I cheered and moved towards Josh, pulling him into a tight hug
"I'm proud of you boo" I laughed
"Good luck with Sam" Josh kissed me on the temple and followed Kaz over to Caroline, while I returned to Sam's embrace. We stood there as they spoke to Caroline and watched back their Villa journey
"So" Caroline stood before us again "Dani and Jack, Laura and Paul, Tasha and Sam. I can now reveal that the couple in third place, is" Sam planted a light kiss on my neck "LAURA AND PAUL!" I clapped for them and moved away from Sam to give Paul a hug, and then Laura
"Well done guys!" I clapped as they headed over to Caroline and sat down to talk and watch back their best bits. When they were done, Caroline stood up
"Before we reveal the winners, we are going to chat to our 2 final couples, first up is Natasha and Sam, let's take a look at their summer of love"
