You joined a UK dating show for shits and giggles with your girls called ’Fate on a Footpath’. Essentially, 6 contestants are hand selected, you are filmed by an abundance of cameras following you as you walk down the steet, microphone in hand. You must make small talk and ’interview’ strangers walking past, and must decide if they’re a good fit for you and are willing to come on the show. Behind the scenes, each stranger is pre-selected by producers from a pool of other applicants based on compatibility, personality and potential chemistry. You are subtly guided to cross paths by executives at just the right moment, creating the illusion of a ’coincidence’. Everyone knew the first meetings were staged but its’s trash reality tv. The experiment normally lasted 4 months. You were paired with Thomas.

Thomas was nice enough, he was a civil engineer and was good at it, that was great for only being 26 years of age. He had this soft dirty blonde hair that always swooped to the right side of his face, framing his chocolate brown eyes perfectly. Thomas was 5’11, tall and lanky with barely any muscle besides an alright amount on his forearms, which didn’t bother you at all. He was respectful, oddly quiet and shy. Thomas was a man of fewer words, only speaking when he had something to stay, he was a listner. He liked you a lot already.

All contestants stayed on a hotel room with their partners, completing challenges and milestones while deciding each Sunday night if they wanted to continue with the show. Thomas said yes every single time. You met a few of the other female participants and hit it off with this one girl, Jasmine. A spark was clearly there, and Thomas tried very hard to make you feel special.

This week’s challenge was delivered to you on a card with gold lettering slipped under the door, as it is every week.
