your fingernails dug into your lip and your brow furrowed

"It isn't...right." you mumble, Clemmy turns to you, jaw open as she stutters

"w-what? how!" she almost stomps, rolling the poster as you bit your thumbnail

"the colors." Lysistrata says simply, you peek at her as she mindlessly scribbles in her journal while Clemmy has her temper tantrum

"you guys! I was working on it all night!" she huffs, glossy lips parting to arrest her case but Sejanus steps in

"I think, sweetie! they're saying pink isn't the most...hunger game-y color..." he says as softly as he could

you practically gag at the nickname, you turn to Lysistrata as she wears an embarrassed smile for the couple 

you fall into the chair next to her as you watch the lovers fight like it's your own personal play

last week, Mr. Highbottom announced we'd be mentoring the tributes of this year's hunger games. The reaping is this weekend and the class still doesn't have a poster.

Clemmy's prototype poster fell from her painted fingers and unraveled right at your feet as you stared into the drawing

tributes were crawling and pushing their way to a winning bow that had "10th annual hunger games" written above it. When you look past the pink and purple colors, It's actually a pretty good poster.

picking up the parchment you waved it in front of the couple as you called for Clemmy

"It's a great poster, Clem. we just need to figure out a different color scheme" That stopped the fighting as the group began to think...until Lysistrata spoke up

"Why not our schools colors? Red and blue." 

It was perfect. Clemmy even smiled as she took her parchment and gave Sejeanus a peck on the cheek before sprinting out of the classroom

you giggled at the ecstatic Clemmy and began to leave as well, mumbling goodbyes to your friends as you left the classroom.

once you closed the door though, you were forced into a dark and cramped space with someone holding you tight

you were about to scream, but, a familiar orange light flicked on and Coryo laughed above you

you hit his chest playfully, about to yell at him for the prank before he caught your lips in a kiss

"missed you all day today" he mumbled on your lips, you felt your cheeks grow hot as you wondered how just a few weeks ago you were trapped in this very closet with him and you weren't even on speaking terms, and now this...

It only proves how fast things can change.
