Love Island

5

Things are slow going this morning, there seems to be an issue with the wardrobe, luckily that is not my department, but Molly is on the case to get it solved.

Savio and myself have been busy getting the extras in place and making sure nothing is out of place.  The atmosphere around the poolside this morning is not the best. After last night I’m sure Payton has heard about Andre and his conquest.

“Did you hear?”  Savio whispers to me. I shake my head, not sure if we are thinking about the same thing.

“Spoilt Princess walked in on Andre and some blondie”  he chuckled.

“Well, she was brunette not blonde, and Payton didn’t walk in on them. They were on the balcony, most of the villas heard and saw everything”  I told him. Then instantly slam my hand over my mouth.

“How do you know that?” Savio stops me from walking away.

“Don't tell Molly but my villa looks over to his”  I huff hanging my head. I was hoping to keep that information to myself for a little while longer.

“O.M.G. girl. Why are holding on to that information to yourself?”  he whisper yells.

“Seriously, I will get no peace if Molly finds out.”  I whisper back to him.  I know Savio will keep this to himself. He knows how much I love Molly, but he also knows how much I like time to myself.

We quickly change the subject as Payton strolls past us with her stupid heels clicking along the pool edge. I so wish I could push her, so she flops in the water, but my job is more important than some spoilt little brat like her.

I have no idea what Andre even sees in her. I mean I am not being big headed but I kind of feel I am better looking and have a better body and most definitely have a nicer personality than her, but I guess they both swim in the same circles.

Payton is still so young, but she acts and behaves so much older. I wouldn’t be surprised if she ends up pregnant and her acting career will be over with before it really gets started. The sudden thought of Payton pregnant with Andre Bello’s baby makes my stomach twist with jealousy.

I seriously need to get my act together. I can’t let my jealousy get the better of me. I mean Andre would never look twice at me. I will just be a silent observer while we are here and the minute, we get back home I can forget all about him and his delicious body.

Talking about delicious bodies, here he comes. All sexy looking with oil all over his body. Every female and even some males, stop what they are doing to check him out. I’m not even sure he realises just how hot he is.

“Morning Darcy”  he says as he walks past me.  I’m too shocked for it to even register that he just spoke to me.  I mumble a morning back to him and quickly make my escape.

The director and the script writer head to where Payton and Andre are to go over lines and stage directions.

“He knows your name?”  Savio squeals in my ear once we are far enough away from the rest of the crew.

“I have no idea”  I tell him as I keep my eyes on Andre.

The first day of filming was a huge success, we manged to get ahead of schedule and luckily with no more hiccups this evening’s filming will go just as well.

As they act out the scene, I can’t help but watch the man himself. He really is amazingly talented. The way he looks into Payton’s eyes would make any woman swoon. Even Payton has to fan herself once a scene is finished.

The second the camera stops rolling, his own demeanour changes. I hadn’t noticed it before now, but he is stiff as a board when Payton is standing near him. He doesn't look at her with love like the photos in the magazines have shown.

Maybe the argument the other night was bigger than it seemed. I wonder if they can come back from it. Not that I should be encouraging the relationship between the two. I seriously need to get these thoughts out of my head. I mentally shake myself and get on with the job at hand.

“That’s a wrap for tonight guys.”  The director calls, making the crew cheer.

“Excellent job Andre. Just need a word about tomorrow’s schedule”  he says walking across to him and Payton.

I slip away after clearing up my stuff and head back to my villa. Passing Savio who is on the phone looking all lovey dovey clearly, he has managed to sort out whatever the issue was with his man. He gives me a little wave and blows a kiss.

The second I get into my villa; I slip my clothes off and head for a shower. I have been on location a few times with my job, but this has to be the hottest location ever. Not that I am complaining but I will end up with tan lines.  I knew I should have worn a bikini with a cover up for during the day.

Once washed and moisturised I slip on a thin dress for dinner tonight. I know the director likes us all to eat together, work is never over when you are doing this kind of job. At dinner it's normally the actors and script writers throwing ideas around, not to change the whole story but to help the movie along.

Let’s just hope that it's plane sailing tonight, no drama and everyone present, unless something dramatic happens to Payton then all will be well, and I can get some time to ogle Andre in peace.

Heading out of my villa I stop dead in my tracks. The sight infront of me is not one I want to see again. This will not be the first time I have walked in on them doing anything but outside my villa is a no.

“Seriously Molly” I scold and storm past.  Yes, Johnathan has Molly up against the tree right outside my door, his pants at his ankles. “f*****g unbelievable”  I mutter to myself as I storm down to dinner.

I can’t even look at them when they walk in, Molly clearly didn’t look in the mirror before she came to dinner.

“Suggest you check a mirror toots” Savio says to her as he passes her and comes to sit with me.  The look on her face says it all as she rushes out the room with Johnathan following her.

“I love them both, but I think that image will be in my nightmares tonight” I tell Savio as I glance around the tables to see who is and isn't here.

Payton and Andre sit beside the director, Payton has her hand on Andre’s arm, but something doesn't look right. His face is grimacing. He looks disgusted at her touch, maybe their disagreement isn't over just yet.

“You could have said something”  Molly scolds me as she sits down.

“Don't you dare blame me. You were right outside MY villa. Seriously, you pair will get shipped back home if you are caught by someone else”  I tell her off.  She hangs her head but agrees and says sorry at least ten times.

“Just don't do it again. I don't want to see his ass when I open my door”  I tell her being serious.

“I have a nice ass”  Johnathan says in his defence.

“Oh, babes, I know you have a nice ass. I bet you work on them buns all day long” Savio says grinning and running his finger up Jonathan’s arm.  He blushes and moves his chair over just a little to get away from Savio and his suggestive looks.

I shake my head at the pair, Johnathan knows Savio is only pulling his leg, but he gets a little uncomfortable sometimes, you wouldn’t think it after what I witnessed outside my villa. He is normally a private person, but I suppose Molly brings out the beast in him.

As the waiters bring out the drinks for the table, Andre slides his chair out rather harshly and stomps out of the room. I wonder what has happened this time. Not two seconds after I had that thought, Payton leaves also. We all share a look between us, clearly a lover’s tiff.

The room is quiet as the directors and other producers huddle together, clearly discussing the scene. It doesn't take long for them both to return, Payton pouting and Andre having a smirk on his face.

“Let the drama begin” Savio whispers in my ear, making me chuckle, which in turn earns me a glare from Payton.

They eventually sit down at the table, being stopped several times on the way over by some crew members and of course their adoring fans.

The meal itself was delicious, light and surprisingly filling and the drinks are just as good. Everything about it screamed exotic and paradise.

Throughout the meal I get the feeling that I am being watched but when I look around me, I can’t see anything. The eyes burning into the side of my face are making me so uncomfortable.

“Someone is watching you” Savio whispers in my ear as he reaches over the table to refill his drink.

“Who?”  I ask as I look around, trying to not make it too obvious.

“The main man” he snickers. The second he says that I can’t help but check it for myself and he is right, Andre is sitting staring with a little smirk on his face.

He could be looking at whatever is behind me but then I realise I am sitting with a wall behind me, so really, he can only be looking at me.

I glance over every so often and he is still looking at my direction. Payton on his side is talking animatedly but he clearly isn't listening to her as she storms away in a mood.

“Oh, I do love the drama” Molly exclaims as she laughs at a retreating Payton.

“She will get nowhere in this world if she keeps acting like that” Savio says swirling his hand around in the air.

Most of the crew and actors have left the area and are all retreating for an early night as we are up for a sunrise shoot in the morning.  Just as I am heading back to my villa, my I hear my name being called making me stop in my tracks.

The deep and sensual voice belonging to Andre Bello himself.
