I followed Pranet because I had no where else to go and I said, “I sometimes hope that things that happen are a dream but they never are.”
He turned to me and said, “Yes I know.”
I can tell he’s felt the same way, when his dad died, he pulled away, from everything and everyone.
“Funny how things work out though, they push us back together, to die.”
He looks at me, and says, “You’ll live.”
“And you?”
“I’m ready to die if I must.”
“Pranet.”
“Yes?”
“You still are my best friend even if 你 did pull away.”
He looks at me and says, “Do one thing for me.”
“What?”
“Live.”
“Why?”
“They need to realize that pushing kids together in a war isn’t the way to handle things, someone has got to 显示 them, you’ll have to be the one to do it.”
“Why me?”
“You’re the strongest, you’re the most talented, and you’re the most desirable.”
I stared at him and said, “And you?”
“I’m damaged.”
“And I’m not?”
“How’ve 你 been damaged?”
“My brother told me to kill to win and I once had friend who made all the wrong choices, and wants to die, I’m damaged because of you.”
“What’d I do but pull away?”
“You made me care” I scream, “you made me care about you, from the moment we met we were 老友记 and now 你 expect me to win, to kill you.”
“Maybe someone will do it for you”, he says stubbornly.
Then I hit him and he starred and he said, “won’t be too hard to kill me will it.”
“I could to anyone, anyone else, no loyalties, no guilt, nothing.”
He stared and 说 “living’s better than dying until its not.”
I stared back too and then we heard a clap of hands and turned and saw Elisabeth.
“You guys friends”, she seemed afraid of the answer so I said, “apparently not.”
Then I walked out I couldn’t kill him, I could have if it had been anyone, anyone but him.
I run into Thayer he’s just eighteen he won the games when he was our age, he’s handsome, bronze hair, bronze skin, and forest green eyes. He’s not six foot but he’s tall and muscular with dark eyelashes that are long and frame his eyes, those beautiful dark green eyes.
“Sorry”, I say.
He smiles, its 心 faltering and beautiful, like it’s made of pure white pearls.
“It’s okay”, he laughs and says.
“I was just…”
“Running away from Pranet”, he says.
I laugh and say, “I guess it could seem that way.”
“You’ll need him 你 know as an ally, he’s strong, handsome good for sponsors, I mean look at me I would know.”
He’s not cocky no he’s joking, I know of Thayer, he was always the 流行的 kid in school, a jock as fast as he was strong, girls threw themselves at him he almost got married to a girl name Dalhia Grope but she had the same bit of luck as me and Pranet, she got called to the games she was only sixteen, she was our girl tribute the 年 after Thayer, but she didn’t have the same bit of luck as he did, she was the eleventh tribute killed that year, when one of the trees fell on her and two other tributes.
He was never the same for a while didn’t talk to many people but its been a 年 now and he’s making progress.
I laughed and said, “Yea sure.”
“What 你 don’t like this?” he says gesturing to his body.
“It’s not my place to answer that”, I say.
“Oh don’t worry I won’t tell”, Thayer says winking at me.
“Yea sure yes your body looks great and so does your face now can we 移动 on.”
He smiles and looks at me beneath those eyelashes, that look could charm anyone, easy.
“Thayer are 你 teasing the tribute”, says the woman who came from the capitol.
“Not at all, Winnie”, he says winking again.
He’s handsome, too handsome; sometimes they sell tributes for their good looks in the capitol.
He smiles at me and says, “Sit 下一个 to me at dinner.”
I look at Winnie closely she has fluffy platinum blonde looking hair and pale gray eyes. Her body is curvy and plump in the chest. Her nose is long and thin and her lips are too.
She had a devils chin too that I don’t find very attractive.
She also has a small sequin tattoo going down the side of her face.
“Don’t let Thayer fool 你 with that act, he’s broken inside, besides 你 may not live any way”, Winnie says, and then she turns on her heel and leaves.
Does she want me to die 或者 does she just like Thayer, she looks as if she must be Mikey’s age but with all that plastic surgery she could easily be thirty.
When 晚餐 comes I sit 下一个 to Thayer like he asks and he smiles but Winnie isn’t happy at all.
Thayer passes me the rolls, the 食物 in district one isn’t bad not like some of the other districts but nothing beats capitol food.
“It’s good isn’t it”, he says.
I nod putting their fancy mashed potatoes with cheese, bacon, and onions on 最佳, 返回页首 along with some gravy.
“You two look like significant tributes, healthy, both of 你 got some muscle, Pranet 你 have some height, both of 你 are good looking. Lyric 你 seem to have a lot of strength in your hands, what’s your weapon of choice?” Elisabeth asks.
“Bow and Arrow.”
“She hits on target every time”, Pranet mutters.
“Well what’s your weapon”, Elisabeth asks pushing her curly blond hair out of the way.
“Sword”, he grunts.
“He fights hard, even if he’s not trying”, I say.
“How are 你 at hand to hand combat”, Thayer asks?
“Good”, we both say, we both have siblings that we can wrestle with so we’ve learned rather well.
He turned to me and said, “Yes I know.”
I can tell he’s felt the same way, when his dad died, he pulled away, from everything and everyone.
“Funny how things work out though, they push us back together, to die.”
