Not one to sit around for too long, Levi got back up, pacing the floor near her. “Okay I’ll bite. What do you do?” He patted down his pockets in search of something, squinting up at the sun beaming down on them. “We allowed to smoke in here?” Not that not being able to would stop him, he’d go and find some place to smoke even if they weren’t. “And I don’t really care for the cameras. They’re gonna censor and cut out anything too wild that goes on anyways. Daytime television,” he wiggled his brows. “Appreciate the offer, but I doubt your little slip of fabric could contain my junk comfortably.”

“I’m an interior designer,” Izzy said softly, watching as he kept pacing up and down. “I don’t know, I’m sure they’ll stop you if they don’t want you to,” she shrugged her shoulders. She didn’t mind if he smoked, she dated plenty of guys who had in the past. His comments, however, caused Izzy to raise an eyebrow. “You have a lot of faith in your junk there, also in the fact that they won’t just keep it in to get viewers.”

            “no, no, not the army,” noel quickly corrected her. “i was – AM a police officer.  “

“The police? Well that’s very admirable,” Izzy nodded, smiling. “Bet you’ve met some very interesting people.”

Ethan looked at Izzy, she was definitely attractive and it was a plus she was trying to engage with him. “It’s terrific,” he laughed. “Well at least I’ll be able to have a snuggle buddy.” Ethan joked. 

“ A snuggle buddy?” she laughed softly, smiling at him. “Is that you volunteering yourself?” Izzy raised an eyebrow at Ethan. He was cute, and although she was scared of falling back into old habits, she needed to put herself out there.

“You one of those workaholic types?” He couldn’t imagine what kind of work she couldn’t put off to be in a game show, curiosity got the better of him but Levi didn’t ask. “Well I don’t have a bikini on under this, but I’m sure we could work something out,” he teased, his little innuendo probably going amiss.  On first appearances alone, she looked innocent and wholesome, if flirty. 

“No, not really. But I have a business and a client base that I like to be able to keep in contact with.” She shrugged the question off, not really wanting to bore anyone with talk of work. Each of the boy’s overtly sexual comments made her more and more unsure of his true intentions, but Izzy knew that she needed to give everyone a chance. “I mean you probably want to rember tha there are camera picking up everything you do,” she laughed softly. “I’d also be very concerned if you did have a bikini on. I can always lend you my spare if you feel so inclined.” She laughed, knowing that probably wasn’t the way he usually liked to get into girl’s bikinis.

“Oh, your phone, huh. Thought those get confiscated,” he answered. He hadn’t read up the rules thoroughly (or at all), so he really had no clue.  Levi came round to sit beside her, crossing his legs indian style. “You’re dealing with the worst guy in this entire batch, I’m pretty sure,” he answered, eyes flickering. “But the water’s warm. The weather’s nice. I thought you’d want to get a little wet?” 

“I know, and I let them take my personal cell, I just really needed to make some work calls,” she shrugged her shoulders, hoping that he wouldn’t rat her out to anyone. “The worst of lot, huh? Well, I’ll be sure to keep that in mind then,” she raised an eyebrow. Bad boys weren’t usually Izzy’s type, but then again she was here to open her eyes to different guys. “Are you really wanting to go for a swim? Because I definitely have a bikini on under this.”

Once conversation started turning a little too dull for his tastes, Levi made his way around the rest of the compound, familiarizing himself with his new homebase for the next ten weeks. Seeing one of the girls by the edge of the pool, he slunk up silently until he was standing right behind her, looking down at the brunette. “How much would you hate me if I pushed you into the pool right now?” Despite the mischievous grin on his face, he didn’t really mean it, his voice light as he chuckled.

Izzy raised an eyebrow at the boy, shaking her head as she let out a soft laugh. “Well, if you pushed me in when my phone was still in my pocket, then I really don’t think I’d be able to talk to you again,” she smiled devilishly, placing her phone on the poolside. “You know, just as a precaution since I can’t be sure who I’m dealing with here.” She knew the boy was joking, but playing along was fun. “Shouldn’t I at least know the name of my bully?”

franklin-ethan:

Ethan knew he sucked at relationships. He wasn’t the smartest and didn’t really get girls and their social cues. But he wanted to. He often came across as a clown because of his awkwardness, but here he was in Hawaii ready to give MTV’s “Are you the one” a whirl. He walked into the house and foolishly grinned.

“Wow, this place.” 

Izzy wanted love, real love. She hoped that this show would give her the opportunity to meet the right guy - someone who could  treat her the way she neede  Walking around the house, she smiled as she bumped into a guy. “it’s pretty nice, isn’t it?” she said with a soft smile. “I mean the bedroom situation is like back in boarding school though.”

Despite being someone who found herself in lots of relationships, Izzy wasn’t sure she enjoyed big personalities and arrogance straight off the bat. So stepping outside for a second for some air, she sat down on the edge of the pool - feet dangling into the water. Her back was to the house, and it wasn’t until the sound of footsteps grew close that she realised she had company. “Sorry, am I in the way?” she asked, turning around to face the source of the noise. “I just didn’t think anyone would want to swim straight away.”

Ryder looked at the girl up and down for a moment as she spoke. He was sure that she was not just good looking but, hot. “Hi yourself” Ryder responded with his typical smirk. He looked at her for another moment before setting his bags down “Ryder” he said as he came closer to the girl “Have you been waiting for me long?” Ryder teased.

Izzy could instantly see that this guy was physically attractive, but his words seemed suggest an attitude that was very different from what she was used to. “Lovely too meet you, Ryder. But honestly, I could wait longer,” she joked, raising an eyebrow at him. “Where did you travel from? Somewhere where girls fall at your feet?”

With her bags now lying completely unpacked on her claimed bed there were now only two things on Karina’s mind. The first was winning all that cash, but to do that in the most efficient way possible they’d all need to get on the same page and then figure out if anyone in this house has studied a) psychology or b) mathematics. There’d be time for that later, Karina decided. ─ Then there was the second thing on her mind, which happened to involve a stiff drink. “So who wants to take a shot to finding true love.” Her eyes rolled at her own statement, her voice thick with sarcasm. “I need something to finally make me forget the hell that’s the LSAT.”

“LSAT? Girl, I think you’re going to need more than a shot to forget that one. I’ve seen grown men sob over the LSAT,” Izzy laughed, rummaging in her suitcase before  holding out a bottle of wine that she had packed. “I mean, it’ll do for now? It’s a nice bottle too,” she grinned at the other girl.

        “y’know, i KNEW that all of this was going to be televised, don’t get me wrong, but these mic packs really DIG into the skin. good thing i don’t  M I N D  a little pain. it’s not like a bullet to the shoulder. now THAT was bad.”

“I’m sure we’ll get used to it with time, but you’re so right - it’s pretty irritating. Hang on, a bullet to the shoulder? I can’t say that’s something I’ve experienced, or most people for that matter. Were you in the army?”

                  Making connections wasn’t entirely his forte. Even in friendship it wasn’t something he was used to. Now, standing in a house forced to listen to the sounds of voices and knowing everyone was doing a much better job than he was, he couldn’t help but feel he’d made the wrong decision signing those consent papers to allow him onto the show. Excusing himself, he heads to the kitchen surprised to find that someone else had already the venture here. “ Didn’t eat on the plane either? ” He asked the stranger.

For someone who was good at speaking to guys, it was perhaps surprising that Izzy was found in the kitchen. She was merely trying to talk herself out of letting get too hung up on anyone straight away, instead taking her time. The company, however, took her by surprise as she picked at some berries. “Oh, hi there,” she said with a soft smile. “Absolutely not, I hate plane food.”

When Ryder first got the call from MTV that he was chosen to participate on the next season of Are You The One. He wasnt sure how he wanted to react, should he be offended or honored? Truthfully he knew he SUCKED at relationships so he wasnt too surprised he was one of the contestiants. As the car dropped him off at the house, he knew in just moments he could be meeting some girl who would actually get him to treat one women with respect. He walked into the house looking around to see if anyone was there.

Having been single for a month, Izzy was excited for the opportunity to get to meet some new people. She didn’t think that she necessarily sucked at relationships, but she welcomed the chance to meet the right guy. So having settled in already, she found herself on the couch, waiting for someone to arrive. “Hi?” she called out, hearing footsteps. She soon noticed the guy walking around the house. “Oh, hi there! I’m Izzy.”
