Gay Island

Day Sixteen New Paradise Part Three

My eyes opened the following morning and I felt a little rough around the edges. It appeared I was the first one awake which was unusual. I sat up for a moment resting my head against the wall. Soon, Tyler whispered to me from his bed, "Can we chat outside?". I shrugged and then nodded, Tyler and I left the bedroom letting the others sleep. 

Tyler made us both a cup of tea and we sat out on the loungers in our underwear. "I haven't slept all night," Tyler told me as he sipped his tea. "What's wrong?". "I'm not really sure, I'm in a strange mood. I was tossing and turning all night and barely slept a wink. Today is going to drag for me, even if we don't do a challenge" Tyler sighed as he laid back shutting his eyes for a moment. 

Suddenly, we both heard a noise coming from the villa. "Looks like people are getting up" I laugh. "And so it begins" Tyler sighed as we both strolled up to the dressing room to get changed. 

We walked into the dressing room at the exact moment Hugo was asking s****l questions. "What I want to know is, has Grant parked his ship in your dock?". Everyone laughed while Tyler and myself wondered what we had walked into. "If you must know, we have had a little play but that's all the information I will give you". "Well, I'm having a lot of fun with Manny! He's so dreamy!" Charlie cheered. "What about you Jake, how is Chris?" Hugo asked. "We've kissed and made out which is fun but nothing more" I replied as I placed my tea on my dressing table and sat down. "I thought you were staying loyal to Matt?" Tyler asked. "I haven't slept with Chris, besides Matt and I were torn apart remember?". "Cut it out Tyler" Hugo advised. "Perhaps but everyone knows the two of you are still emotionally together," Tyler told me. "Moving on, my head is telling me to stay with Tom. Alberto and I have been hanging out, he is nice but perhaps not for me" Tyrone explained. "Or perhaps you're not over Sam yet?" Tyler suggested. "It could be a factor" Tyrone sighed. "Me and Karl are pretty solid so far I think. I'm not sure where we are going or what we are doing but all in good time so they say" Tyler explains. "I quite like Freddie, he's so much fun!" Hugo tells the group. At this point we heard a phone vibrate on a surface. 

It was Tyrone's, he had a video to play to us. "Bottoms, as it's your last night away we thought you deserved an insight to what has been happening while you've been away". He pressed the play button as everyone stood around to watch it.

The video started with Matt talking to Corey in the kitchen in private. "I tell you what, these boys are hot. Definitely f**k-able". "I know, they are a good bunch we've been given" Corey replied giving a wink. I noticed Corey's left eye was dark, I wasn't completely sure but I wondered if he had a black eye. Matts lower lip looked swollen as if he'd been hit.

The video cuts to Sam talking to Tom in the gym in private. "Don't you think he looks really similar to Tyrone?". "I can certainly see a resemblance".

Next, the video cuts to Hayden laying on the daybeds with one of the new bottoms. He had brown curly hair, blue eyes with freckles. He looked quite cute and innocent facially. His body had a perfect amount of meat, to keep himself slim but toned. "I love your body shape". "How sweet, but I think you can give better compliments than that. Look at this fine form" the boy giggled and winked at him. Hayden smiled and it appeared the two leaned in for a kiss. However, this was not shown, as the next clip played.

Corey was sitting on the steps in the shallow end of the pool with a Latino boy with tanned smooth skin sitting on his lap as the two passionately kissed one another. "Yes mate!" Hayden cheered, while himself and Tom stood from afar looking impressed. 

Next, we cut to Sam speaking to Matt both in underwear, giving the impression this was an early morning conversation. "Ok, I'm putting it out there, s*x on the first night. Changes everything". 

The video ends and for a moment everyone is silent, in complete shock. It seemed that the tops were having more fun and felt a lot more romance with the new bottoms in the villa. "What the actual f**k? Which one of those boys is f*****g then Matt!" Charlie yells looking annoyed. "To be fair, I know Matt well and he says that when he not that interested in a boy. He will happily sleep with most twinks but the ones he cares about are treated differently. Not that Sam feels the same" I pointed out. "Screw Sam, who was that w***e with Hayden?" Tyler yells sounding angry. "Corey seemed to be rather happy sucking the face of that slut" Hugo pointed out. "To be fair guys, we have only seen clips. We don't know what happened around those snapshots, they could have been taken out of context" Colin advised us. "I can't believe Matt is sleeping with someone else" Charlie panicked. "Why do you care? You like Manny and also you've been with Matt for all of five minutes. Matt only chose you because he couldn't have Jake. You're his second choice!" Tyler yelled at him. "This is true, I hate to break it to you but if he's been faithful he's done it for me and if he's cheated on you it's only because that's his window for freedom," I told Charlie who looked upset with us both. "It's the principle of the situation!". "Come on guys, how can we expect the boys to be plain Jane when we are here flirting with the new tops. If we have this video of the home villa, imagine the video that the tops have been sent highlighting us" Hugo told the group. "Hugo is right. The new bottoms are only doing what the new tops are doing" Colin agreed. "I'm not having this! Manny is just a bit of fun, I still like Matt" Charlie yelled as he stormed out the door. "And the Oscar for most dramatic actor goes too..." Hugo sighs. "What a drama queen, I don't know why he's acting out when Matt made it perfectly clear he wants Jake," Tyler told us. "I think Charlie genuinely likes Matt. Perhaps he was hoping the two would lose feelings for one another and he could have a try with Matt. Besides, Charlie didn't steal Matt from Jake" Colin pointed out. "I've spoken honestly since the start of our trip. If Matt has cheated I won't be annoyed because he's not with me at the moment, if he wants a freebie while he has the chance he can. If he's been faithful, like I said, I believe he did that for me" I explained. "I believe Hayden is faithful despite the video. He's my friend and we might not be that romantic with each other but he wouldn't hurt me" Tyler told us with hope in his eyes. "Sam seems to have had his fun, I guess I've had mine too. The conversation he had with Matt doesn't prove he had s*x, it could have been a general conversation to look like he's done something" Hugo pointed out. "Tyrone your pretty quiet what do you think?" Colin asked. "I'm stunned by what Sam said. Hugo could be right but what if he's wrong?". "Can we all take a moment to think about why George wasn't in the video at all?" Colin asked. "He's right. He wasn't even in the background or anything" Tyler said sounding puzzled. "Knowing George he's sat by the front door waiting for us to return" Hugo laughed. "Well he better have made dinner, that's all I'm saying" Tyler laughed. 

At that moment Charlie walked back into the room. "Oh goodie, the queen graces us with her presence again" Hugo sighs as me and Tyler smile at his comment. "I'm sorry, I'm not usually like that. Matts behaviour just got to me". "Hun, if I'm ok with it you can be too" I sighed. "I say we call a little bottom meeting. I propose that to get back at the guys we should all get with our tops" Tyler suggested. "That's it? That's your plan?" Colin asked. "Why what's wrong with it?". "It doesn't sound as full-on as usual". "Wait you want us to get with the tops? Like give them our holes?" Charlie asked looking confused. "Well maybe that's too far but I mean kiss them. Show them more affection and romance. Make the tops back home really jealous" Tyler explained. "That does sound like fun. I'm in!" Hugo called. Charlie agreed afterwards looking revenge thirsty. "Fine, why not? I'll join this game" Colin told us. "I don't know if I want to kiss all the boys. I'm happy to watch you guys though" I said declining the offer. Tyrone also agreed with me. "Suit yourselves guys. I guess this concludes our meeting" Tyler says wrapping up our chat. 

Everyone walked outside and split into smaller groups. I decided to sit with Grant, Colin, Karl and Tyler over by the pool. The tops told us they were chatting about Freddie and how they were not warming to him. "He's not even a DJ, he's a club promoter and he told Karl that he could learn a thing or two from him. How rude is that? What are your views on him?" Grant asked. "He's alright I don't know him that well" I replied. "What were you boys doing upstairs for so long?" Grant asked. "We were chatting about Charlie and his outburst about Matt. I bet he's still going on about it" Colin explained as he dipped his legs into the pool. "Oh we saw the video you guys watched too. I guess it was to show us our competition or something. It seemed to us like the tops at the other villa have let you boys down" Grant told us. "That's appreciated, I'm sure many agree with you," I told him as Grant smiled. 

I soon left the group to wander around the villa, next on my radar was Hugo and Freddie. I came and sat next to Hugo who was sitting on the bench watching Freddie do push-ups. "Want to mess with Freddie? Let's see who can get him more flustered" Hugo whispered to me and giggled. "Hey Freddie, come chat with us" Hugo called as Freddie got up. "We wanted to," Hugo said as I interrupted him. "See your body after your work out". "You thought you'd see my muscles under my meaty coat. You know I'm a lot stronger than these ripped boys you know. I might be meatier and less ripped but I'm stronger" he replied as he flexed his arms. "Careful babe you might take someone's eye out with those"  Hugo giggled. Freddie continued to show off as Hugo spoke again, "we can't believe your single". "It's my choice boys. Most can't handle a man like me and my crazy lifestyle" he says showing off. "And look at that sexy bum" Hugo called as he slaps Freddie on his right bum cheek. "Your so naughty" Freddie chuckled. "I'll raise that slap to a kiss" I call as I drop my knees and kiss Freddie's left bum cheek over his swim shorts. Hugo follows me and does the same to his right. Freddie then turns around seeing me and Hugo on our knees looking up at him. His eyes widen as he seems to not know what to do. From where me and Hugo were sitting he started to get a little excited down below. "We couldn't resist babe. Your too sexy, too much of a man" Hugo sighs looking like desperately needs Freddie. "Your too kind" he replied still seeming uncertain of what to do. "Would you mind filling my water bottle up, please? I'll make it worth it if you do" Hugo asked innocently showing a cute face.

Freddie almost immediately does as he's told as me and Hugo return to our seats. "Sweet boy but that was too easy" he laughed. "True, if that was Hayden or Matt they would have just pulled their p***s out and pushed both our mouths on it" I laughed while Hugo agreed. 

After my fun with Hugo, I walked over to the pool overhearing Charlie still moaning about Matt. "I'm like so over Matt. He can go to hell!". "I agree" Manny replied seeming a little bored. "He thinks he's so hot, well he's not! Nothing more unattractive than a cheater!" He whined. Manny nodded and didn't say a word. "I'm wondering if me and Matt are even worth it?". "Are kidding me, Charlie, you're still going on about Matt?" I call sounding annoyed as I take a seat sitting next to Manny by the pool. "You'd be an excellent person to ask about this Jake because of your history". I rolled my eyes and let Charlie continue to speak. It was lucky I didn't view Charlie as a threat towards Matt otherwise the two of us would have fallen out by now. Luckily he was far too self-absorbed for Matt to like him. "I was excited to get with Matt. I knew he had his moments, he's a player. He kissed Tyler that time too. I guess I thought he'd be faithful to me out of respect. Am I overreacting or not?". "Yes... very" I replied bluntly. Charlie looked unhappy with me and turned to Manny. "You agree with me right?". "Of course. Matt had his chance and blew it. You've got me now though". I rolled my eyes almost fainting from the cringe-worthy conversation. Charlie was being a drama queen and Manny was only scoring points, he couldn't have cared less about Matt. 

I left the two alone to gossip about Matt. I think I had heard enough without vomiting into the pool. I decided to approach Tyrone who was laying alone on the loungers. "Hey, hun. I'm coming to lay with you" I called as I lied down next to him. "That's fine. I'm just thinking about Sam. We broke up, I get that but hooking up with some boy on the first night is quite harsh don't you think?". "Well, we don't know that's what happened. He was chatting to Matt and him and Hayden put ideas in the other boys heads. It could have been a general conversation" I suggested. "Well, it makes me feel discarded. Like I've been tossed in the bin and no longer matter. I also wonder if what we had was even real, he could have picked me just because I was a safe move. Then Hugo comes over and messes with his head and screwed us over. I would like to think he would have still chosen me had Tom of not got there first. Now he's had a taste of another boy he will want others" Tyrone explained. "Maybe you're looking too much into this. It might not be as bad as you think. Besides you need to get over Sam. What's done is done, focus on the future and find the next boy, whether that's Tom or one of the new tops here" I suggested. "You know what? I think your right. Thanks Jake for being so supportive" Tyrone told me seeming pleased. 

I spent the rest of the evening relaxing in the sun until it was time to get ready for the evening. I noticed some bickering between Hugo and Tyler. I didn't take too much notice, it was easier for me to focus on getting myself ready and keeping my tan healthy by rubbing in, its daily lotion treatment. 

Once everyone finished getting ready, we started to make our way downstairs to meet up with the guys. Chris was quick to welcome me over to the group. "You look great tonight," he told me looking me up and down. "Thanks, you too" I smiled cutely. "Now that everyone is here. Me and the lads wanted to say to you that we've all enjoyed our time with all of you. We each have a favourite and would like to come back to your villa with you and make our temporary relationships into real ones" Grant explained as everyone stood around, listening to him. "We know you have other guys at the home villa but from what we have seen they've let you down. We'd love to come back and show them what they lost out on" Manny announced. "Aw that's so cute, I bet they worked on that together" Charlie called looking impressed. "I think it's a good start to our night. Let's make it a great one!" Hugo cheered. 

Everyone grabbed a drink from what was provided around us, champagne, cocktails or wine and we stood around in groups chatting. I was standing with Tyler, Alberto and Colin when Chris approached and asked me to go for a chat in private. He took me over to the bench we sat on the last time we had a private chat. "I know you like it here," he told me as he sat down. He put his arm onto the back on the bench and gestures me to sit close to him. I accepted his gesture and he carefully placed his hand onto my shoulder to secure me close to him. "I would like to have a chat with you. This isn't me trying to work out what's going on in your head. Instead, this is me telling you where my head is at" he explained looking me in the eyes. "Ok, what do you what to say?". "When I first joined the villa. Probably like all the guys, my main goal and all I cared about was getting into the main villa. I won't lie, I was prepared to get with anyone that liked me regardless of whether I liked them or not. Part of that is to do with Grant and his speech he gave us before we met you. He told us that we needed to impress you, be better than the original tops in the main villa, don't stick to one bottom, play the field and so on. However, Grant then met Colin, he's completely turned his head and fallen for him. In the same way, I met you and the same happened. I'm so grateful that we got together on day one" Chris explained slowly. I paused for a moment to think and then spoke, "Where is this coming from?". "From me, I'm being honest with you. I'm trying to tell you how much I like you. I would really like to spend the rest of my summer with you. So I guess what I'm asking is, when the time comes would you consider taking me back to the villa with you?". I smiled and replied without needing to think, "Yes, I would". 

The reason I didn't need to think was because the choice I would be making would be to either start something with Chris or stay with Corey. Fortunately for Chris, Matt would not be in the equation because if he was Chris would lose. This was how I felt currently, without speaking with Matt and knowing where his head is with me, Matt will always win. I knew, when I return to the villa and speak to Matt things may change. 

After hearing what I had said, Chris's face lit up and he soon replied, "I'm so happy you said that. What are you going to do about Corey?" He asked. "To be completely honest, I don't care how Corey feels". "That's quite savage. He seems like a nice guy from what I've seen of him on tv". "I liked him too but then he broke me and Matt up. Things change in here if you hadn't noticed". Chris chuckled and then leaned in to kiss me on the lips, then caressed my face. I enjoyed kissing Chris, something felt right about kissing him. We pulled away and rejoined the others at the party before people started to notice we were gone. 

Before we could rejoin the group Colin ran up to me and asked me for a private chat. Chris didn't seem to mind, he walked off to rejoin the others leaving Colin with me. "What's up?" I asked looking concerned. "I was looking for my flip flops I left outside and I happened to overhear what Chris was saying to you. I know you said you'd take Chris back to the main villa but I think I can help you make your choice final" he told me. "Right?" I asked seeming unimpressed he eavesdropped on my conversation. "I'm good at reading body language and reading between the lines and such, at the end of the day all the boys in here want a place in the main villa. So tonight they are going to be pulling all the stops to earn their place. What's tricky for us is knowing whether those gestures and feelings are real or fake" Colin explained. "To be honest Colin, your getting me confused with someone who has a lover to go back to, in the villa. Corey doesn't fall under that category for me". "You're being really hard on Corey. He's actually a great guy". "Yes, I thought that too. He's good looking and he's sweet. Sadly for him, he back stabbed Matt and back stabbed me, all because he wanted to take a risk. A risk he hadn't spoken to either of us about or had been given any impression he was allowed to make" I said sounding annoyed. "But Maybe Corey did you a favour?". "How did you come to that conclusion after what I just said?" I asked crossing my arms. "Well if you were still with Matt wouldn't you be having a worst time here. Not knowing whether Matt was cheating on you, not knowing whether to flirt with Chris or to stay alone. Face it, Jake, Corey made your life so much easier in here". I paused for a moment realising he was right, which I found frustrating, "Ok, your right. However, Corey didn't know we were going on this trip when he did what he did. Therefore he didn't do me a favour, I got lucky" I told him walking off, ending our chat. 

After our evening came to a close Chris took my hand and led me up to our bed to get unchanged to get into bed. We slide under the covers, I pulled Chris towards me for a kiss on the lips which soon lead into a full make out session.
