After so long, couples were beginning to show. However they were afraid to admit. It was quite obvious to the rest that some were having the hots for each other. One pair was Kunimitsu and Erin and the other was Jake and Lene. So someone (not telling you who) came up with a plan. Though they were simple, they were effective.
First, Erin and Kunimitsu. The main person here would have to be Teri since she was the most thick-skinned, creative and persuasive. Both were invited to dinner by her saying it would be fun so they both agreed but for Kunimitsu, it was a little unwilling. So on the night, they were all dressed their best as they were going to a fancy restaurant. Kunimitsu wore a suit while Erin had on a red dress with black heels. When they both reached there, they saw her and went to sit down. However both were surprised that each other was here. No one spoke and Kunimitsu kept his usual stoic expression. Teri could feel the tense atmosphere so she tried starting a conversation.
"So...erm are you enjoying yourself?" asked Teri. They both sat there doing nothing. Teri soon got irritated. "Ok. I know both of you have feelings for each other so admit it already." said Teri in a loud voice but no one else could hear it except the both of them. Then they both blushed. Kunimitsu tried to keep his cool but could not. "Ok now my message has been said so I have to go. Bye." said Teri. They both tried to get her to stay but she was long gone by then.
What both of them did not know that a group of teenagers were sitting close by and filming the whole scene. Soon Teri joined their group.
"So how is it going?" asked Laura.
"Well, let's just say anything is possible and it can go anyway." said Teri.
"Shh. Look they are saying something." said Sk. Everyone focused their attention on the couple.
"I..." They both said at the same time.
"You first." said Erin.
"Thank you. Well I have liked you since I talked to you on the plane. You make me feel that I can be myself when I am around you and I don't have to be my serious self. You make me feel comfortable. That's why I have fallen in love for you Erin Wilson." said Kunimitsu. Erin blushed even harder. The people in hiding let out an "aww". Actually only the girls did. The guys thought it was cheesy and they got a light smack on their arm for their comment. They could not be hit hard in cause they made a loud sound and were noticed by some people.
"Well. Actually I like you a lot too. I feel very happy that you feel the same way. My heart always beats very fast whenever I see you actually." said Erin. Having both admitted their feelings, they felt that a ton of weight had been lifted from their shoulders. They spent the rest of the meal talking. Soon the group got bored and left quietly back to the house. Erin and Kunimitsu both felt tired and soon went home to. When they passed through the front door, unsuspectingly there were some people up and waiting.
"Tell you the truth, my heart beats very fast whenever I see you and did I tell you that you looked great in that dress?" said Kunimitsu. She blushed and she could feel her cheeks growing hot but it was too dark to see. Then he pulled her in for a kiss. Erin was shocked at his actions but soon accepted it.
'Who knew that the serious man was capable of such actions.' Erin thought. When they broke off the kiss, the lights were suddenly turned on and the word "Cut" was emitted through the corridors. Then they saw the faces of Jake, Teri, Grace, Syusuke, Kimiko and Yuuta. Erin now blushed like crazy and Kunimitsu was actually angry but there was a tinge of pink in his cheeks.
"Ok. Nice shot. You." said Jake as he pointed at Kunimitsu. "You can date my sister. Hey sis what is this about your heart beating so fast." he said teasing her. Erin was ready to pounce on him.
"I'm going to sleep." said Kunimitsu again in his strict tone. He walked up the stairs and disappeared.
"Sis, how was the kiss?" after hearing that comment, she quickly ran after her brother. Soon she jumped on him and tackled him to the ground. She poked his thighs with her heels making him cry out in pain. It was such a funny scene that Teri and Grace started taping it on film and Syusuke started snapping a way with camera. Yuuta could only shake his head and wonder why he had agreed to this in the first place. Kimiko who was holding on to Yuuta could only giggle at the scene. Both sadists could only think that this would make such great blackmailing tools and both let out a smirk.
The next day, everyone was already filled in on last night's events. Next on target were Lene and Jake.
Letters were written to these two people and were told to meet each other at the beach at 11 tonight. Each had thought that the other had sent the letter but it was written by the scheming people in the house. At 11, both went to meet each other.
"So what did you want to talk about?" asked Jake.
"Me. I thought in the letter you said you wanted to talk to me." said Lene.
"What letter? I never sent anything to you." said Jake.
"Then who did?" said Lene. Both started to scan the surroundings but could not see anything. Luckily the "stalkers" were hidden cleverly so they could not be seen. With the help of night, it proved even harder for the couple to spot them.
"Well. Whoever sent that letter must have wanted us to talk about something." said Jake. Then both went silent remembering what had happened to Kunimitsu and Erin. Then Jake smacked himself on the head realising the thing he had to talk about. The group of "stalkers" had all their attention on them. "Well they won't let us leave till we talk about it." So they both sat on a huge rock facing the sea. As the tides rolled in, it started to feel chilly. Then Jake put his arm around Lene seeing that she was cold. "Erm...I have to tell you this." he started.
"This pair is definitely more willing to talk than some others." said Teri with some sarcasm.
"Quiet. The show is about to begin. " said Erin.
"Erm...well actually I..Ilikeyoualot." said Jake as he tilted his head down. (For those who cannot see it is: I like you a lot.) Lene turned her head away from Jake and pushed his hand away. She got up and started to walk towards the sea. After a few steps, she stopped and breathed in some of the fresh ocean air. Then she turned around to face Jake and said, "I wondering when you would say that. It was love at first sight. I thought it was a simple crush but I couldn't stop thinking about you. Then that night on the plane I was so happy when you pulled up my blanket for me.""You knew." said Jake."Of course. I have good reflexes you know so I know anyone who touches me even in my sleep." said Lene. Then Jake walked towards her and planted a kiss on her and she kissed him back. They could see flashes and sounds of a camera clicking but they ignored it continued kissing. Soon their lips parted and they walked back to the mansion hand in hand. Before they could go to sleep, they had to get the cameras. (One is digital cam and the other is video cam.) So they went to Lene went to Grace's room and the same with Jake and Syusuke. When Lene opened the door very quietly, she could see the outline of two people sitting on the ground and watching something. Lene suspected one of them to be Grace since this was her room. The two people turned their heads around and said in a low creepy voice, "What do you want?" Lene was shocked and gave a small scream and she quickly turned on the lights. Jake heard her screamed and went over to Grace's room. "Its you. What are you doing?' asked Lene."Well we were reviewing some shots we took." said Grace and she started making a kissing sound at her and Jake who just appeared. They both blushed. "If you were looking for this", she pointed at the video camera, "You can't have it." They both walked out with their heads down and sighed at their failed attempt. "Well at least we tried." said Jake. Then she gave her a goodnight kiss and returned to their rooms.-End of Chapter-
