#week2day4

Outside, Flynn and Brad are chatting with Raphael about last nights dumping. 

Flynn: Do you see yourself trying things on with anyone else?

Raphael: At the moment, not really. I know everyone in the villa right now, and I know none of them fancy me. 

Brad: What about Abbie? Did you speak to her much?

Raphael: Not at all. So, she probably isn’t even thinking of me romantically. [He lowers his head and sighs]

Flynn decides to play cupid and let Raph know what Abbie actually thinks of him.

Flynn: I heard from Aurora that Abbie said she thinks you’re one of the most attractive flats in here.

Raphael: Wait, really? When?

Flynn: Last night. So, you’ve got a chance with her.

Raphael: I don’t wanna get my hopes up... Let’s see if she asks me on a date today.

Flynn: Yeah, of course.

Raphael: But that is some good news.

Flynn: Brad, who are you thinking of asking on a date? 

Brad: [Confidently] I’ve definitely got my eye on someone.

Right as Brad says this, Minkie walks across the garden and towards the pool. Brad turns all his attention towards her.

Brad: Wow, Minkie really walks around like she owns the place.

Flynn: I know right. It’s pretty iconic.

Brad: Hell yeah. I think I’m gonna go talk to them. 

Flynn shakes his head and gestures to Connor who is sat nearby.

Flynn: I wouldn’t do that right now. Maybe when you-know-who isn’t right behind us.

Renee, just like Jade, also heard the scream come from inside the villa.

Renee: Did no one else hear that?

Flynn: Stop messing around girls. You’re gonna freak people out.

Jade: No, there was genuinely a scream. I’m gonna go check it out. 

Renee: I’ll join you.

Renee and Jade head up the steps and into the villa. Flynn still just thinks they’re joking around. He rolls his eyes and heads over to Ellie.

In the villa, Jade leads Renee to where she left Minkie, who isn’t where she left her.

Jade: What? They were just here?

Renee: What is going on around here?

As Renee says this, the same man the attacked Minkie walks up behind them. Renee spins on her heel and squeals with fear as she sees him.

Jade: Who the hell is that?!

Renee: Someone playing a prank?

Across the villa, Daisy, Codi and Georgia chat about how they’re all feeling after last nights dumping.

Daisy: It’s actually so crazy that Elliot is dead. I almost kissed that guy.

Codi: Isn’t it odd to think that if you were coupled up with him he might be alive?

Georgia: What the fuck, Codi? That’s not a very nice thing to say. Besides, he was dumped because he failed the challenge. Nothing to do with who he’s coupled up with.

Codi: Yeah, sorry Daisy.

Daisy: Nah, it’s fine. I’m not sensitive like that. 

Daisy: You know, I was terrified standing in that tube.

Georgia: Imagine how it felt to get dropped into the water. Before I saw Elliot next to me, I for sure thought I was going to die.

Codi: I thought you were two. It was the lowest I’ve felt in here.

Georgia: It felt like I was falling for 5 minutes. Slowly imagining the faces of everyone who voted for me to die.

Daisy: I wonder who did vote for you? 

Codi: Raphael, I bet. And Merylee.

Georgia: Hey! [Coming to Merylee’s defence] Merylee’s kind and sweet. She’s been so misjudged in here.

Codi: Anyway, enough about who voted for you. How are you feeling about everything now?

Georgia: Still shaken. But calming a little. I’ve never been that close to dying before. 

Welcome to Week 2 Day 4 in the Sims Love Island villa! 

Yesterday we lost Elliot but gained a new heel, Abbie and flat, Brad. Today they take a few lucky islanders on dates as they adjust to life in the villa.

It’s the morning, and everyone is getting up. Jade seems to have really gotten up on the right side of the bed, as right when she wakes up she’s greeted by the smile of Flynn.

Flynn: Good morning.

Jade: Morning!

Nathan scowls behind her. Flynn notices this and walks off to get on with his day.

In the dressing room, Renee and Abbie get ready for the day ahead. 

Abbie: I’ve probably gotta try and look my best today.

Renee: That’s how I feel everyday.. [Drawing on her brows]

Abbie: Yeah, but today I need to look extra good. It’s my first full day in here. So, I’m probably gonna get called to go on my dates.

Renee: Oh, I completely forgot about those! You have an idea of who you’re going to pick?

Abbie: Hmm, I think so. But there are just too many people in here I wanna get to know!

Renee: That’s exactly how I felt! There is so much choice. It’s like trying to find the perfect movie on Netflix. There are just too many good options you end up scrolling forever!

Abbie: That’s so true.

Renee: Damn. Now I miss Netflix.

Abbie: Me too. It’s all I thought about when I was stuck in my hotel room for a week before getting into the villa. All I had to watch was the Sims Love Island episodes! It drove me a little mad.

Renee: I know right! They gave me a few books but I hate reading. So, I just sat around doing nothing all day.

Abbie: I feel bad for the people stuck in there right now. Poor future lovers...

Renee: Future lovers?

Abbie: You know what I mean!

Renee: No I don’t?

Abbie: Soon they’ll be in the villa with us and I could potentially date them! So therefore they’re my future lovers.

Jade and Minkie are called from the villa by Abbie and Brad. They’re the next two Islanders they’re taking on dates. Jade is going with Abbie and Minkie is with Brad.

Brad: Hey, how’re you feeling?

Minkie: I’m great! Are we roller skating?

Brad: Yep! You any good?

Minkie: Nope.. I’m awful.

Brad: Then this will be fun!

Minkie and Brad put on their skates and get on the rink, as Jade and Abbie take their seats.

Jade: I’ll be honest... I thought it would’ve been Brad asking me on a date. I’m actually not into girls.

Abbie: Oh, that’s awkward... We can still have fun though? Can’t we?

Jade: Sure, I guess. I feel bad that you wasted a date though.

Abbie: It’s fine. I’ve got plenty of time to get to know everyone. 

Jade: I guess. Who would you have picked if you didn’t pick me?

Abbie: Ummm, probably Aurora. Or maybe Nathan? I’m not actually sure.

Jade: Ooh, okay. I kinda see you with Nathan.

Abbie: Really? Or is that your way of getting rid of him?

Jade: Rid of him? What do you mean?

Abbie: Come on, babes. You don’t have to lie.I saw your face when I picked Flynn for a date. You like him.

Jade goes all quiet and takes a sip from her drink, it’s really strong, she takes a bigger sip.

Jade: Okay, fine. Maybe I’ve moved on from Nathan. I’m just stuck on what to do. How do I tell Nathan?

Abbie: Not sure I can help with that one..

The rest of the date is really awkward and mostly silent. Jade and Abbie end up just watching Minkie fall around the roller rink. 

Minkie flies onto their back. Brad comes straight over and checks if they’re okay.

Brad: Oh my god! Are you okay?? [Helping Minkie up] Do you want some water? 

Minkie: Haha, you’re cute. I’m fine, it’s okay. But thanks for being worried.

Minkie rises to their feet and joins Brad in skating again, this time Brad stays super close just in case they fall again.

Abbie struts into the garden, grabbing basically every bodies attention. 

*Ding* Then her phone goes off.

Abbie: I’ve got a text! Oooh, I’ve always wanted to say that!

The islanders all rush over to hear. They all know what it’s going to be.

The Text: “It’s date time! Abbie and Brad please select the first Islander you will each take on a date!”

Abbie looks at Brad and gestures for him to go first, he clears his throat and proudly says..

Brad: I’ll take Renee. If that’s okay?

He turns and sees Renee is pulling a slightly uncomfortable face. 

Brad: Oh, what’s wrong?

Renee: Nothing! I’d love to go on a date with you. [Straining her brows again] I’m just kinda surprised someone picked me...

She looks back at Nathan who awkwardly looks away. Abbie notices this and breaks the tension with her answer.

Abbie: I pick Flynn for my date!

This however, adds far more tension. Behind her, Jade scowls.

Jade: Hope you two have a fun date! [She sarcastically says]

Flynn smiles, rubs his back then follows Brad, Abbie and Renee inside to get ready for his date. Renee and Abbie go upstairs to the dressing room, whilst Flynn and Brad go downstairs to the bedroom to get dressed.

Nathan crosses the garden and finds Renee sat by herself on a daybed. 

Nathan: Mind if I join you?

Renee: Not at all. 

Nathan sits down next to her and lays it on thick.

Nathan: Before I start, I just wanna say how beautiful you look today.

Renee is a bit confused by this.

Renee: Thank you, but, what do you mean by ‘start’?

Nathan: Like.. Start talking.

Renee: Oh..? But you had already started talking when you said that...

Real smooth, Nathan, real smooth.

Nathan: Uh... I-

Renee giggles as Nathan gets all flustered.

Renee: I’m just kidding! I knew what you meant. I was just pulling your leg.

Nathan: [Laughing] Thank god! You had me worried there for a second! I was really stressed.

Renee: Hehe, I know. It was super cute.

Renee and Nathan stare into each others eyes for a moment. It’s sweet.

Renee: Wait, I’m confused. I thought you were with Jade?

Nathan: I am.

Renee: Then why are you flirting with me? You haven;t given me any attention since our first date...

Renee looks down at the ground, remembering how he had ignored her.

Nathan: Thinks between be and Jade are probably not going to work out. I’m just trying to keep my options open.

Renee: So I’m a second choice? Again? God! Why does this keep happening to me! 

Nathan: No, no, no.

Renee: No, you’re right. I’m not second choice. I wasn’t even being considered until you realised you might get dumped!

Nathan: Renee, that’s not it at all.

Renee: Sure it is. I wasn’t born yesterday! I’m not stupid.

Nathan goes to speak again, but Renee has already stormed off.
