FIJI, SOUTH PACIFIC: Rob Rausch was originally partnered with Leah Kateb in 'Love Island USA' Season 6, but Liv Walker stole him away. Rather than being enthusiastic, Rob appears to be cautious.

Viewers do believe he may wish to return to Leah, but only time will tell. After the second episode that aired on June 12, Leah, who is officially single on the show for now, has lingering feelings about Rob.

Throughout the episode, Leah berates Liv, even though not in person. She has started to doubt Rob's intentions with both girls, even though he assured her, she was the one he wanted.

She didn't want to put the blame on Liv entirely wondering why she would pursue Rob if he hadn't shown any interest.

As the cast waits for Night 3, Rob asks Leah to sneak out so he can surprise her with a date. He soon realized that he and Liv had very little in common, which made him go after Leah.

In the beautiful setup, the duo shares a kiss, leaving viewers with a question: Will they get back together?
