~Jason's POV~

She's here. She actually came. Oh god. What am I going to say? Jason don't embarrass yourself...OMG. Wait what am I doing again? Oh yeah.

"Hi." I finally managed to get out.

"Um...hi? Are you ok? You look...well pale."

Oh no she noticed. I guess that's what you get for asking a very smart and cunning girl to come meet myself infrount of an elevator.

"Yeah I'm fine." I lied.

"Ok, so what did you want to talk to me about."

"The Hunger Games."

"Uh. No duh. So what about the Hunger Games?"

"Are you really a 'slayer?' I burst out.

I immediately covered my mouth as soon as I saw her hurt expression, and I could just tell that something personal has happened to her about this 'slayer' thing.

"I'm s -sorry! I-I didn't mean f-for it to be personal!" I stammered.

She looked at me and grinned sadly.

"It's okay. I'll tell you about it."

I stayed quick for the whole story while she told me about her brother Jerome, and everything else.

"--- I mean what they say is not wrong, that I could trow weapons well and that I'm quick, but everything else they say is a lie."

I sat there speechless, looking at the ground. I had no idea she's had it this hard.

"Thank you." I finally managed to say.

"Well I guess your just going to use that against me now."

"Why would I?"

"Jason. Don't lie. You all know that all those tributes out there upset Mitch want to kill me."

I paused. I remember all those dirty looks she got from the other tributes at the tribute parade. I swear I also heard a tribute, Amy I think sneer: "look at that snuck up snob. She's just doing all this for the sponsors. Then she's just going to kill every last one or us. She'll show no mercy. She's just a brutal bitch."

"Hello? Earth to Jason! You still there?"

I snapped out of it. "Um yeah right here."

She looked at me with those beautiful green eyes of hers. Oh how I could just tell her my feelings for her and we could live happily ever after! Then I noticed something...was she blushing? Does she like me?

No Jason No.

No possible.

Right?
