After saying goodbye to Connor and watching him leave the villa. Daisy and Miguel walked up to soul ties, lying against the pillows. Miguel sighs sadly, "When I first expected to do this shit, I didn't think it was ever going to be that deep. I didn't feel like I was actually going to make friends out here, like, close friends like that." Daisy smiles at him sadly, "Yeah, he's a great guy and I just feel bad for him."

Miguel shook his head, "You have nothing to feel bad about. I guess it's just the way things work around here. I am very happy where I'm at right now, though." Daisy let out a small laugh as she squinted her eyes at him jokingly, "Yeah, I would hope so." He laughed at her words before looking at her seriously, "No, but genuinely you're a vibe-y girl. Like, you make me laugh. Just so easy to talk to. You're very beautiful."

Daisy looked away from him as she blushed ferociously, he quickly added, "You got eyes I can just look at all day." She rolled her eyes playfully, "Stop. I feel like I'm permanently blushing whenever I'm near you." He rubbed her back softly while smiling softly at her, "That's cute." Daisy turned to look at him as he continued, "You got a whole lot, a whole lot about you that I like." She gasped at him playfully, "You like me?"

Miguel shook his head at her antics before grabbing her face softly and pulling her closer. Daisy closed the gap between them, pulling him closer by his shirt. She felt him smile into the kiss before pulling away, pecking her lips a few times. Miguel laid back on the pillows as she spoke up, "Well, I'm definitely happy." He pulled her closer, laying her head on his chest, "I'm happier." She looked up at him with a cheesy smile, "That was cute."

Daisy in the beach hut:
"I really like this man and it's actually a little scary how quickly things have progressed between us but I'm definitely not complaining," She smiled widely.

A while later, Daisy and Leah are sitting on the dock together. "I'm honestly so happy for you. You and Ezra are so alike in many ways, I'm surprised it took this long to happen," Daisy said while smiling widely at the younger girl. Leah looked at her with a big smile, "I'm really happy where I'm at with him. We had talked before but after everything with Connor and Nicole, we kinda unintentionally distanced ourselves."

Daisy pulled her jacket closer as the cold wind hit her skin, "Yeah, Ezra was sorta weird during the whole love triangle with Nicole. I've barely talked to him anymore since I coupled up with Miguel." Leah leaned back before jumping up, "Oh! I almost forgot but, like, Ezra told me he talked to Rob about the challenge. He told him he overheard our conversation on the balcony and that the words I had told Rob were being twisted."

The older girl gasped and let her jaw drop, "No fucking way. Is that why he and Rob haven't spoken since?" Leah nodded her head rapidly, "Rob was pissed but, like, it's true! I'm really glad Ezra stood up for me. Like, it means so much and that's something Connor would've never done." Daisy looked back at the water as she added, "Yeah, and if you think about it, Ezra is closer to Rob since they've been here since the start."

Leah tilts her head to the side, "True!" Daisy looks back at her, "I'm glad Ezra did what all the other guys couldn't. Kendall apologized to Rob, even though he didn't say anything that wasn't true." The two girls continue talking before eventually heading inside to get ready for bed. They each walked into the dressing room and began their night routines, Daisy taking a quick shower.

She came back into the dressing room, sitting down on her chair so she could do her skincare. JaNa looks up and sees Leah applying a bit of concealer, "Wait, are you putting makeup on for bed? Just to impress him?" Leah laughs and turns away as the rest of the girls watch in surprise and awe. Daisy laughs as Leah looks embarrassed, "That's so cute!" JaNa covers her mouth in shock, "Bitch, you're lying!"

Cassidy walks up to Leah and wraps her arms around her as Leah covers her face in embarrassment. Daisy shakes her head with a small smile as she puts her hair in a braid. She walks out of the dressing room with a few of the girls, all ready to head to bed. They walk into the bedroom and Daisy heads to her bed, finding Miguel already there. She takes off her mic and sets it on the nightstand, before getting under the covers.

Miguel pulls her closer, wrapping his arms around her waist while she lays on his chest. The lights turn off as she feels him draw small shapes on her back, making her smile softly at the tickling sensation. Daisy slowly falls asleep to his soothing touch, lulling her into a deep slumber. Miguel watches her with a small smile, leaning down to press a soft kiss on her forehead before letting the drowsiness overtake him.

The bright lights of the villa turn on as the morning creeps in, waking up the islanders for a new day. Daisy rubs her eyes as Miguel wraps his arms tighter around her as he groans. The two slowly get out of bed stretching before walking to the bathroom. They do little dances together while brushing their teeth and washing their faces. Daisy jumps onto Miguel's back as he takes them to the kitchen.

Daisy makes her mango smoothie, pouring a cup for herself and Miguel. He hands her a plate with scrambled eggs over some toast with avocado and tomato on top, "Wow, this looks delicious!" Miguel cocks his head as he shrugs, "I am a man of many skills." She smiled teasingly at him, "Oh really?" He kisses her lips softly before she pulls back, "I have to go get ready but I'll come down in a bit."

He nods his head and pats her ass twice gently, letting go of her so she could walk towards the dressing room with JaNa. Ezra looks over at Miguel, who's staring at Daisy's retreating figure, "Man, you are whipped!" Miguel looks back at him and just shakes his head with a small smile. Ezra lets out a small laugh as he sees the older boy's ears turn red, "You can't even deny it!"

Daisy is lying on her stomach, in between Miguel's legs on a pool chair. They were talking when Liv, who was sitting by the pool table with Nigel, yelled out, "Daisy put a muzzle on it!" The brunette burst on laughing, turning back to see an offended look on Miguel's face, "That's so rude of her." Daisy laughs at him, "You were snoring very loud..." He squints his eyes at her while she continues laughing.

"Don't worry, it didn't even bother me," She said once she'd calmed down. They continued talking, asking each other random questions, "You like scary movies, right?" Daisy nodded her head as he continued, "What would you say is your favorite one?" She tilted her head in thought, "That's a hard question, I don't have a main favorite. It honestly depends on what I'm feeling at the moment."

Miguel nodded his head in agreement, "My OG one is Jeepers Creepers." Daisy gasped as she hadn't even thought of that one, "That one's so good!" His jaw dropped in surprise, "Have you seen it?" She nodded her head, "Yeah, of course I have." He sat up more, shocked at the news, "No way." Daisy let out a small laugh, "Yeah! I have the biggest obsession with horror movies or any genre in movies, honestly."

He leaned back onto the chair as he smiled widely at her, "I fucking love movies!" She laughed at his excitement at the news of something more they had in common. He looked over the kitchen, "So, where would you say your head is at with us?" She smiled softly at him, "I like where I'm at with you. We don't move too fast but we also aren't going at a slow pace. I know that I do really like you, like more than I would've expected to."

He smiled widely at her, "Oh really?" She pushed his head back as she rolled her eyes playfully, "Yeah whatever, don't let it get to your head." Miguel laughed loudly at her before pulling her closer, "I feel like we're on the same page on that. You are the only one I want to get to know in the villa. I don't think my head could easily turn if I'm being honest."

Daisy in the beach hut:
She let out small squeal before looking at the camera with a straight face, "It's not that big of a deal, honestly."

Daisy raised her eyebrows in surprise and tried to hide her small smile, not letting it get to her head. He let out a small laugh as he watched her expression, "What? You don't believe me?" She shook her head, "No, it's not that. I just don't want to read too much into it, get my hopes up too much, you know?" Miguel cupped her face gently, "We'll be okay, no matter what happens. Like you said, I know that I really like you."

"That should be enough for us, right now. Just have to live in the moment, not overthink the future," he finishes. Daisy smiles softly at him, "You're right. We both really like each other and that's enough for now." He nodded and slowly closed the gap between them, sealing their words with a passionate kiss. She sits up more, moving from her laying position to straddle him.

He deepened the kiss before pulling away slowly, pecking her lips multiple times. She giggled quietly before going to lay back down but Miguel held her in place. Daisy looked at him in confusion and he looked away nervously, "Just give me a minute." She looked at him confused still before looking down and back up at him, "Miguel!" She bursted out laughing as he looked up at the sky, trying to distract himself.

The girls are getting ready for the night, talking amongst each other. Daisy was applying her eyeliner when Kaylor looked at the girls with a small smile, "So, Aaron and I had a really good conversation today. I told him like, yeah, like, I'm falling, like, for sure." They all cheered happily for the blonde, glad her connection was progressing. Daisy continued doing her makeup before Serena spoke up.

"So, obviously, I really like Kordell but, like, I feel like I'm not showing him enough. I'm scared to, like, let a guy in. But, like, at the end of the day, like, I really like the man," Serena said with a small smile. JaNa smiled widely at her, "We love to hear it!" They all cheered happily for her, also glad that her connection was finally getting to the pace it needed.

Daisy finished her makeup before straightening her hair. Once she was complete with her hair, she changed into a white two-piece. She added a cute black jacket over it, completing the outfit. The girls all finished up and took some pictures together before heading downstairs. The boys clapped for them as they walked down, meeting their couples.

Miguel smiled widely and he looked over her entire figure, "You look absolutely stunning, this outfit might be one of my favorites so far." Daisy laughed silently before wrapping her arms around him and kissing him softly. She pulled back and smiled softly at him, "You look quite handsome, orange suits you." He smiled at her before the two headed over to the drinks table.

They made a small toast, raising their drinks together and clinking their glasses. Daisy sat on Miguel's lap as they
talked with Serena, Kordell, and Nigel. A phone behind them chimed and Nigel turned, pointing at Nicole, "Uh-Oh!" Nicole smiled widely, "I got a text!" The islanders all turned towards her and got closer as they cheered. "Islanders, please gather at the fire pit immediately. #RealTalk."

They all let out loud groans as they headed to the fire pit, already expecting the worst. They all sat down with their couples, Daisy and Miguel held each other's hand nervously. Serena's phone chimed and she read out the message, "America has been voting for the most compatible couple." Daisy took a deep breath as Miguel threw his head back, knowing where this was leading.

Rob's phone chimed next, and he took it out of his back pocket, "Those with the fewest votes risk being dumped tonight." Daisy scoffed in annoyance, "No fucking way." They all stood up, silently hoping to not go home tonight. Kordell received the next message, "In no particular order, first saved couple is... Leah and Ezra." They both looked at each other in surprise before kissing and sitting down happily.

Nicole's phone chimed next, she sighed as she read out the text, "The next couple saved is... JaNa and Kenny." JaNa gasped in shock as everyone clapped for the new couple, glad the girl was getting the treatment she deserved. They sat down with wide happy smiles, grateful to be saved. Daisy's phone chimed next, she closed her eyes as she let out an anxious breath.

"The next couple saved is... Kaylor and Aaron," She read out. She smiled softly at the couple as they shared a kiss, quickly sitting down after. Aaron looked over at Daisy and formed a small heart with his hand. She smiled at him, appreciating his silent comfort. Serena's phone chimed next, "The next couple saved is... Daisy and Miguel!"

The islanders all clapped for the couple as Daisy gasped, turning around to kiss Miguel softly. The two smiled widely as they sat down, thankful they weren't going home tonight. They looked back at the four couples still standing, feeling scared once more. Kendall's phone chimed next, he let out a sigh as he read the text, "Only two more couples are safe. The next couple safe is... Serena and Kordell."

The two shared a kiss before sitting down, the rest clapping for the couple. They all watched nervously awaiting the next message, Liv's phone chimed. Daisy bit her lip as Liv read out the text, "The fifth and final couple safe is... Nicole and Kendall." They all clapped as they embraced each other before sitting down. Two couples were left standing now, making them anxious

Cassidy received the text message, "Liv and Nigel, Cassidy and Rob, please stand in front of the fire pit." The two couples walked towards the front, standing in a row. Leah's phone rang, signaling a new text, "Cassidy and Rob, and, Liv and Nigel, as the bottom couples in the public vote, you are now vulnerable." Cassidy's phone chimed again, "However, only two of you will leave the island tonight."

Daisy tightened her grip on Miguel's hand, as they all wondered if it meant two people or a couple. Nigel received the next message, "Who goes and who stays will be decided by your fellow islanders." Daisy and Miguel threw their heads back, not wanting to do this once more. Kordell's phone rang, "Safe islanders, you must now decide who you want to save by standing behind that islander."

Daisy's jaw dropped as she covered her mouth in shock, not expecting something so mean. "The two islanders with the least amount of people standing behind them will be dumped tonight," Kordell finished reading the text. Miguel shook his head in disbelief as Daisy leaned her head on his shoulder, "That's just straight-up mean as fuck."

Serena received the first message, asking her to stand behind the islander she would like to save. She chose to stand behind Liv, which was no surprise. Kordell went next, choosing to stand behind Rob. JaNa was next up to choose, standing behind Liv. Kenny stood up and chose to stand behind Nigel, supporting his closest friend.

Kaylor went up, standing behind Liv which was expected. Daisy began to feel horrible watching Cassidy stand on her own. Aaron stood up next, immediately walking over to stand behind Rob. Nicole was up next, she stood up and walked towards Liv. Daisy shook her head, the guilt creeping up inside of her. Kendall was next to choose and he stood behind Rob, dabbing up Nigel before.

Daisy stood up next, she looked at Liv mouthing 'I love you, pretty girl.' She walked over behind Cassidy, rubbing her arm softly, "I got you, baby girl." The blonde smiled sadly at her before looking back in front. Miguel stood up next, he dabbed up Nigel before standing behind Rob. Leah was the last girl up, she looked over at Cassidy, "I love you, Cass."

The tall blonde looked over at her as she watched her stand behind Liv, mouthing an apology. Ezra was the last islander left to choose, he slowly made his way behind Rob. Cassidy's phone chimed, "Cassidy and Nigel, as you have the least amount of people standing behind you, you are now dumped from the island. You have thirty minutes to pack your bags and say your goodbyes. #BackToTheMainland."

She immediately turned around, embracing the brunette who stood behind her, "Thank you so much for standing behind me." Daisy rubbed her back softly, "You don't have to thank me, this was so unfair to you." She pulled away, letting her say her goodbyes to the rest of the islanders. Daisy felt Miguel hug her from behind as she leaned back, "Fuck, I feel so bad for her."

The girls walked up to the dressing room, watching as Cassidy packed up her things. They all felt so bad for the girl and knew she felt embarrassed. She grabbed her things from the bathroom and pulled Leah for a chat on the balcony. Cassidy walked back in after a while, "Hey, Daisy? Can I talk to you real quick?" The brunette immediately stood up and walked out behind her.

She sat down on the couch as Cassidy teared up, "Thank you. It means so much that you stood behind me. I felt humiliated for a moment because I was completely alone until you stood behind me." Daisy pulled the girl into an embrace, "This was so incredibly unfair to you, you had just gotten here and were barely exploring. I didn't want you to feel like none of us cared for you because we do."

Daisy in the beach hut:
"Cassidy is the sweetest girl ever, she definitely deserves the chance to find love too. It just sucks that she didn't get the chance to find it here," She smiled sadly as she looked down.

The two talked for a little more before walking back in. Cassidy finished packing and walked downstairs meeting Nigel at the front. Nigel smiled at them all, "You guys are all so fucking amazing. Every single one of you guys, like, I wish the best for all of you guys, I really do." Cassidy blew them all a kiss, "Love you, guys." They all waved as they watched the two walk out, Daisy and Miguel smiling sadly.
