I'm A Celebrity 2019!

~ 14 ~

'OH MY GOD.' My jaw dropped. There were spiders and everything. I crawled in and waited, Ian screaming as he descended the ladder to his tunnel. 'Ian. Please stop.' I groaned.

'Okay.'

The claxon starts and I listen for Ian's voice, heading into the first tunnel with loads of green ants. Not too bad but quite painful.

Didn't stop me screaming my head off though. 'My god I'm being bitten aliveeee!!!!' I screamed.

We got the first two quite quickly, Ian not knowing where to go. The communication wasn't great if I'm honest. I went into 2 screaming, just crickets and cockroaches. Ian was screaming though and it was frogs for him. I laughed a little as he screamed, undoing the knots in my tunnel like I was freakin Lara Croft.

We went through the second tunnel quite quickly, heading into three. 'Okay Maia. 50 spiders in there now.' I whimpered. 'Oh my god.' I groaned, breathing deeply.

'Come on Maia. Come on.' I spoke to myself, ignoring everything except my own voice. I pushed myself forwards. 'Where is it? Where is it!!??' I screamed, nearly crying again, but focusing on the stars until Ian started screaming for his mummy. 'Is he saying 'Mummy'!?' I laughed slightly, it was distracting me to be fair.

'Let's go, lets go lets go Ian. I don't wanna be in here. Please, please, please. Come on Ian. Ian Wright Wright Wright.' I sang, not looking around, instead just closing my eyes until I felt the last star come through and getting the hell out of there.

That was it. The spiders were over. I could deal with everything else. The worst was over.

The next box was cockroaches and I was fine. We had better communication and so was able to enjoy Ian's screaming a little. 'Yeah I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road.' I hurried out of the cockroaches, unaware there was another star and Ian was shouting my name.

'Come on Mai I need you man.' 'Are you there already?' I screamed at the sight of about 30 snakes. Jord's one was fine but more than 5, no thankyou. 'No I'm in here. I'm still in here. I need you!' Ian yelled and I realised he was still in box 4. 'Oh shit! I rushed back in, grabbing the last star and moving back into the snakes.

'Three more to find Ian.' I crawled over to the end of the box, not as bothered once I was in, it wasn't too bad when I was still and they were still. 'What are these people doing to me!?' I laughed at Ian as he screamed about some crocodiles. He must've been in a load of water.

We got the first one quickly. The second, not so much. 'Come on Star. I'm one of you. I'm a star! Play with me.' I laughed again, imaging Ant and Dec wetting themselves.

'One more. One more in here Ian.' I get what I think is the last one, then get stuck in the hole, 'MaIa wHerE aRe yOu?' I here Ian shout, Ant and Dec laughing. 'Maia!' I head towards the exit, screaming as Ian comes and gets me, pulling me into a huge hug at the end.

'How was that!?' I shake my head. '50 bloody spiders.' I raise my eyebrows. 'Like it was nothing!' Dec hi fives me. 'Ian you're a bit of a screamer aren't you.' 'I'm a screamer.' He smiles innocently and I laugh.

'I swear to god. I went into one of em. I was gonna turn back.' I laugh. 'Mummy!' He laughs too. 'Yeah that one.' I clutch his shoulder as my knees nearly give out from laughing.

'Okay well we think you got all 12. But let's just count them to be sure.' I get them out. '1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12!' I squeal, hugging Ian. 'Maia that's a full house in every trial you've done!' Dec says, smiling.

'Hell yeah it is.' Ian gives me a hi ten. 'Right, go back and tell everyone the good news. Well done guys!' We sing the 'celebrate good times' song as we head off back across the bridges. 'It's so surreal, you've got Spiders all around you and then underneath Ian Wrights screaming for his mum.' We both laugh. 'Oi alright listen. I touched things in there that should never be touched.' I throw my head back, face palming.
