'A Bit of Me'

SUMMARY: The dolls are returned to their cribs, but the Islanders aren’t in the clear yet… The public has voted for the most compatible couple in the Villa. The winners of today’s challenge have proven their strength as a couple and are safe. Tonight, the couple with the least votes will leave the Villa tonight.

🤍BH Grace and Gary:

You lean into Gary, eyes sparkling with mischief. “Let’s go pram shopping as soon as we’re out!”

Gary's eyes go wide. “Hah! Calm yourself.” He stares at you, mouth gaping, before recovering. “I get the feeling that a doll and a real baby are very different.” You let out a soft, teasing laugh at his reaction. He laughs, warm and rich. “Why don’t we make it out of here first, yeah?” His smile widens, and it gives your stomach a little fluttering feeling.

🤍BH Chelsea and Henrik:

“Chelsea really put in a lot of effort trying to be a good mum,” Henrik praises her.

Chelsea gestures wildly with her hands, entirely serious. “I mean, she was a princess for a reason, and she was the best-behaved and the cutest, and she had the best parents. So, I mean, it was a recipe for success from the start.”

🤍BH Lottie and Bobby:

Lottie admits, “I have really bonded with Larry. It was nice to have a pretend baby.”

Bobby leans in, a teasing smirk on his face. "Says the one who was so knackered they had a nap." 

Lottie swats his arm playfully. "It was a power nap so I could double down my focus on being the hottest mummy!" 

Bobby chuckles, his eyes crinkling. "I reckon you smashed it, babe!"

Missing LITG S2 as I played new seasons.

S2 Day 27 Pt2 Hush, Little Baby

SUMMARY: There's no rest for the wicked! While the girls get a beach break from the dolls, Daddy Daycare is in full swing! What mischief will the boys get up to?

LITG S2 Canon based + Love Island TV series Baby challenge.

Elijah looked down at the plastic infant in his arms. "I am not the stay-at-home dad type."

"Today, you are," Bobby chirped, his eyes flashing with mischief. He rocked his doll with enthusiastic, sweeping motions. "Just imagine what we'll get up to together!"

"Kicking the football around..." Gary chimed in from the edge of the daybed.

"Baking cupcakes together..." Bobby added, his face lighting up.

Elijah walked over to the mini rebounder trampoline, stepping carefully so he didn't jostle his doll. He laid Dale down right next to Bubbly. "I'll put them next to each other."

Henrik, with his long blonde hair tied back, adjusted the dolls' hands. "Hold hands. Then they feel comfortable."

Noah stopped. "Now, that's next level."

"This is daddy-ing 101," Gary quipped back, not breaking his rhythm for a second.

Amid the scattered hair straighteners, rogue bottles of aftershave, and piles of clothes, Bobby and Henrik have taken their parenting duties to a questionable new level. "Maybe some of this."

Bobby lifts Larry high into the air, adopting his high-pitched girl voice again. "Hey, boys!"

Gary's jaw drops, his eyes widening as he takes in the sight. "Holy fuck," he gasps, before bursting into cheers. "We got new bombs, boys...!"

"No way! This is sick!" Elijah cheers as Bobby and Henrik reach the decking.

BOYS: WHOOPING AND CHEERING

Bobby and Henrik give their dolls a dramatic twirl.

DAY 27 Pt 2.1 Hush, Little Baby

SUMMARY: There's no rest for the wicked!

NOTE: In this parenting simulation, the couples will be given their own bundle of battery-operated joy.

BOBBY READS ALOUD: “Boys, it’s time to get your tan on and make a splash as you head to the beach!”

Hope's hand flew to her mouth. "What the hell?" she breathed, barely audible.

Jo's jaw dropped. “Are you joking?”

HE CONTINUES TO READ ALOUD: “Please hand your doll to your partner and  head to the jeep outside. #lifesabeach #sunsoutbunsout”

Narrator, Iain Stirling: "The boys leave the Villa for the beach.  What mischief will the girls get up to?"

Beach: Lads' day The jeep pulls up to the beach, spraying white sand in all directions as it stops. The boys pile out as one and sprint into the sunshine. WHOOPING AND CHEERING Henrik shielded his eyes and looked out across the sandy beach toward the ocean. "This is the life," he said, something genuinely wistful crossing his face beneath the grin. "Wish I had my board." Bobby shouted, “Last one in the sea has to suck a lemon!” The boys sprint off and dive into the crystal-clear water.

Villa: Mums’ Relay Race!

Alec looks at you with frozen eyes. You lay Alec in his pram and line up with the other girls. Jo is to your right; Chelsea is to your left. There's a pram run to a changing table, followed by a beanbag obstacle course.

Hannah explains, “Whoever changes their doll's nappy and makes it back through the bean bags first will be the winner.”

Lottie steps forward into her new role as official referee, holding a hand high in the air as she eyes the lineup. "Alright, you lot ready?” The girls dig their heels into the ground. "Three… two… one…" Lottie counts down, her voice echoing in the sudden silence of the garden. "Go!"

The race begins. 

New Chapter available on Wattpad and A03. Links below.

SUMMARY: Day 27 in the Villa. The sound of crying in the Villa can only mean one thing… babies! 

NOTE: In this challenge, the couples are each given their own baby doll to look after. This parenting challenge is set to put the couples to the test, leading to some difficult conversations. The baby would be fitted with a speaker and sensors that would allow the doll to react to its surroundings.

“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!” The cries of infants rouse our other Islanders from their slumber.

"For me, it's kind of at a crossroads now. And now it goes one of two ways. Either it gets better... and that's good. Or it goes the other way, where we both realise we're both not into it as much as we thought."

"I started my journey with him, so I'm gonna to miss him. He's one of the cool ones."

"I don't have any regrets. I've definitely been true to myself, and that's all I could do. Such an experience. I've literally loved it, so good."

"It's been great. Zero regrets," he said with a beaming smile. "Stayed true to myself to the end, and I'm glad for that."

Narrator, Iain Stirling: Six couples are left. The Islanders are aware that in only a few short days, a winning couple will be chosen. Who will be the next to leave?

Season 2 Day 26 Pt3.1 'The Mind Of Love'

SUMMARY: Did someone say... date night? The Islanders chat date tactics.

"Islanders, the public have been voting for their favourite couple. The couple with the least votes will be leaving today."

"The Villa just won't be the same if one of the OG Islanders gets the boot. Like, that's a big deal."

You lay your head on his shoulder and felt your throat tighten. You blinked hard, wiping away a tear. He tightens his grip on your waist. You look across at the only couple still standing. Another beep rings out, interrupting the silence. 

"It's a really bittersweet moment that she's going home." SHE SNIFFLES. "It's heartbreaking. It genuinely is heartbreaking."

"You don't come in here for opportunities, you come in here to find someone you love. Obviously, I'm gutted, leaving the Villa. I've been in here from the start."

LITG S2: Day 26 (EP 34) Pt 2. 'Couple Trouble'

SUMMARY: Who thinks what about who in the Villa? The 'Couple Trouble' challenge is a pivotal game, serving as the 'final test' before the grand finale. Islanders will guess what the public thinks about their couple across various categories.

NOTE: Due to the length of this chapter, I have broken it into three parts. OG S2 had only six categories. I have added four more based on the actual Love Island (UK) TV series and other LITG seasons that featured the ‘Couple Goals’ challenge. Inner thoughts are shown in italics.

🤍 🤍 🤍

"Islanders, it's time to find what the public thinks of your couples in today's challenge. You will each be guessing what the public thinks about your pairings. #coupletrouble #publicapproval"

"Which couple is the loudest in bed?"

"Who will tie the knot first?"

“Which couple is the most boring?”

“Which couple will just be friends as soon as they’re out of the Villa?”

“Which couple is most likely to model in the nude for a life drawing class?”

“Who is the hottest couple?”

“Which couple is in the most one-sided relationship?”

“Which couple has the worst dress sense?”

“Which couple is the most annoying?”

“Which couple is most likely to cheat on each other?”
