Table for Two

Day 2: Dates and Fates

Morning

I rolled over and noticed Jasper wasn't in bed any more. Most of the others were still in bed. I wondered where he'd gone.

A few moments later, he walked in all cheery and bright eyed, "morning everyone, I've made coffee."

There were several groans in protest, Mason told him to pipe down that some of us were still trying to sleep.

Jasper ignored him and said, "come on it's a beautiful morning, rise and shine breakfast will be ready in ten minutes."

Everyone began lifting themselves out of bed. I looked over at Jake and Talia's bed, Talia still had the duvet pulled up over her head, Jake was sitting up with his hands behind his head, staring off into the distance. I couldn't help but stare at him, he looked like he was posing for a photoshoot without even trying. The duvet was laying right below his abs, and he had one leg poking out of it. Every inch of his body looked like it had been chiseled out of stone, there wasn't a single flaw on him. He was the most handsome man I'd ever seen. I didn't even realize how long I'd been staring, but I finally looked away when he stood up and got out of bed, as he walked into the dressing room he looked back over his shoulder...was he looking at me, did he notice me staring at him the whole time, was he checking to see if I was still staring....he was so hard to read. I finally decided to get up and head into the dressing room to get ready.

As I walked in Erikah, grabbed my arm and said, " OMG, come with me now." She pulled me into the bathroom, "Listen to this," I could hear Tim's voice coming from the shower, it sounded like he was rapping. He was...he said a few verses and Erikah couldn't help but laugh..."funniest thing ever," she said in between her laughs. She was trying so hard to hold it in so Tim wouldn't hear.."shall we sneak a peek?" I nodded and she continued, "ok, here's my idea for the best way to do it, we stand on either side of the shower door, and then join in on his rap. He'll be surprised, he'll open the door to see what's what." I nodded again and we both made our way over to the shower and Erikah began to rap.."Tim's love island representing" I quickly followed with, "His rhymes are devastating."

Erikah's plan had worked, Tim said, "hey, who's out there?" and began to push the door open.

Erikah yelled, "surprise" and pushed the door all the way open revealing Tim standing there, completely naked and posing like he was on stage.

He looked embarrassed and was like, "er, hey guys."

Erikah burst out laughing...but I wasn't laughing. I was looking down in shock at Tim's package...rapping must not be his only talent.

He noticed me looking and quickly grabbed a towel to cover himself up and said, "Like what you see, Gianna?"

Erikah said how funny and cute it was and how we couldn't resist taking a peek. I said I was quite impressed with the many talents of Tim the MC, so impressed that I thought we should call him Big T. Erikah laughed again and agreed, and that's how Tim got his nickname. Erikah and I made our way into the dressing room to get ready. The other girls were already in there rummaging through their luggage picking out something to wear. I pulled out the first bathing suit I could find, it was purple with gold straps that accentuated my curves in all the right places. All my bikinis were killer so it didn't matter which one I had on, I knew either way all eyes would be on me, but I didn't care if the other boys had their eyes on me, the only eyes I was interested in looking me up and down were Jake's dark eyes.
