not just a pretty face - love island 2020

06

It gets so hot as we sunbathe that I consider getting into the pool a couple of hours after the girls have both gone. But then my phone goes off.

Oh my god.

'IVE GOT A TEXT.' I shout, Paige squealing for me as I hear the boys run over.

'Saoirse, SAOIRSE.' Paige laughs. 'Connagh has chosen you as his second date. Please get ready to leave the villa. #atleasthesnotascaffolder #willyoumakemoves.' I scream, then Paige gets a text and we scream again, Paige being chosen by Finely.

We rush off to get ready, Callum and Connor following us. 'Who've you got a date with?' Callum asks me and I try not to smirk.

Oh how the tables have turned.

'Connagh.' 'Ahh Connag. Connag. Make sure you fuck his name up when you go in there.' I wink at Paige, who's jaws dropped.

'Nahhh. I've got a weird name I wouldn't do that to him.'

I grin as I make my way to get ready. 'Oh he's so bothered.' Paige whispers and I smirk.

'What should we wear? We don't wanna go hoe straight away. But we wanna go I can be a hoe.' I look through my wardrobe, laughing as we pick out similar outfits.

I change into denim shorts and a white puffy sleeve corset top. That I may or may not have stolen from Perrie when we spent Christmas with her and Alex, whoops. Sliding on some high wedges as I plait two dutch braids into a half do to keep my hair out of my face.

'Oooh! LOOK AT YOU.' Everyone cheers as Paige and I walk towards them holding hands.

'Hope they like boobs.'

Paige yells and I laugh. 'Sursh, more hip, more hip.' Mike yells and I play up to it, swishing my hair around. 'There it is!!' They all laugh. 'Wowww!' Leanne hypes us up, grinning. 'Well damn girls.' Nas does too.

'You're impressing them boys ain't ya.' Connor says. 'Are you's nervous?' I laugh loudly. 'Oh I'm shitting myself.'
'Right come on then.' Paige says and we give everyone a hug.

'In a bit. Have a good date.' Callum says as I hug him. 'Thankyou.' I grin. 'But don't.' He mumbles, but I hear him. 'See you in a bit.' Paige waves and we head off to get our water bottles and go.

'Did you just hear Callum? He said have a good date...but don't.' I tell Paige quietly and she gasps, laughing. 'Is that what he said to you!?'

We get to the date and I see the boys, hoping I'm with the guy on the left; which, thank god, I am.

'Hi I'm Saoirse, nice to meet you.' I greet him warmly, he was definitely incredibly hot. 'I'm Connagh.' He kisses my cheek. 'You ok? You look amazing.' I blush. 'Thankyou, so do you.' I sit down, smiling widely. 'Oh Thankyou.' I grin as he pulls my chair out.

'So tell me a bit about yourself.' He asks me and I smile. 'Well, I have a bit of an oddly spelt name too.' I laugh and he grins. 'There we go, good start isn't it.' He smiles. 'As soon as I heard your name read out on the text I was like 'it's Connagh. The G's silent.' He laughs. 'It's like a sixth sense.' He laughs again.
