Tayshia Adams chose Zac Clark as her second fantasy date on 'The Bachelorette' Finale episode on Monday, December 21. The card she sent him had the words "Zac, let's explore each other." Tayshia said she was about to go on the kind of date that was reflective of her and Zac's relationship and individual personalities, something that was fun, messy, awkward, cute and sexy.

The duo stripped down to their underclothes as they slathered each other in colors and made some art with their bodies. The date really delivered on bringing in the sexual chemistry between the two. But many fans think that they are yet to see any love between them. "You in LUST not LOVE big difference #TheBachelorette," wrote a fan. "All I see is lust not love with Zac #TheBachelorette" tweeted another. "Well, #Tayshia is kissing Zac way more than Ivan. With Zac, she has more sexual chemistry. Will they end up together, not sure yet. Maybe it's mostly lust... We'll see. #TheBachelorette" read another tweet. "Tayshia and Zac are in lust #TheBachelorette," another fan noted. "With Zac, it just might be lust. #TheBachelorette," another tweet read. 



 



 



 



 

Zac and Tayshia regrouped that evening and before things could advance further, Zac told the cameras that it's time to get real, "stop being a jackass" and tell Tayshia how he felt. He said he's never fallen so strongly and quickly for anyone in his life but with Tayshia, he felt like a switch went off and he was "turned on". He told Tayshia that before coming on to the show, he had made a promise to be authentic and honest and he confessed that he loves her. Tayshia was in tears at that moment and said it back to him. It did feel sincere when both of them said their I love you's. However, it now seems like there might be some truth to what fans are saying.

Brendan self-eliminated in the episode because he felt his heart was not whole and he needed to heal and pick up pieces of himself before he could truly give himself to Tayshia, something that he wasn't ready for at that moment. Later on, Tayshia walked him out and confessed that he was the one that she was going to pick in the end. She also confessed the same to Bachelorette alum Rachel Lindsay who had come in, just to dole out some last-minute important advice before the final rose ceremony. During their conversations, Tayshia told her that Zac wasn't someone that stuck out to her on the first night but they've been having moments each day that helped build the connection. Tayshia proved that even though things were getting hot and bothered between her and Zac, her heart truly lied with Brendan. 

'The Bachelorette' finale will air on Tuesday, December 22, at 8 pm ET on ABC.
