Serena's POV
"Oh my gosh"! I shriek "that was awesome!" Alexis smiled and said "yah, I know". She goes to sit down and my name is called. I walk up to the stage and Cameron guides me to my chair. "I know how to walk!" I snap and he lets go. We sit down and he begins asking me questions. "So," Cameron says "how does it feel to one moment, be living in the presidents mansion, then the next, being put into the games?" Seriously? I think. I decide my angle is going to get me pity points. What? It works. "Oh, well it's very different. I mean what Loelle said was true. Us kids did nothing. But what can we do about it?" I add a few tears to add affect. "I mean, it's just so hard. It's not even fair! I wanna go home!" I cried. The audience sighs and I hear some crying too. This is too easy, I mean, How pathetic can you get?
Cameron wipes away a fake tear and calmly pats my back. "Well Serena, good luck. And may the odds be ever in your favour!" Just then the buzzer goes off, I curtsy and walk off stage. Alexis runs after me. "Omg!!!!" She squeals "that was so good! Nice tears"! I smile and fix my makeup "why thank you, I am quite the actress". We both laugh and head to our rooms. Tomorrow is the Games. Am I really ready for this?

Katniss POV:
I turn off the TV after Serena leaves the stage, put my head in my hands and sigh. "What are we doing Peeta"? He puts his arm around me to try and calm me down. It's a nice gesture, but won't work. "I don't know Katniss" he whispers " we are in way over our heads. To be honest, I don't want to be here". I look up at him and say a bit to harshly " Well no shit Peeta! Neither do I! Do you think I want to plan the deaths of 23 innocent children?!" He just sits there looking at me with empathy. "I know Kat, it's hard".
"I'm sorry Peeta" I apologize. He just hugs me and whispers in my ear "I love you Kat. We can get through this together."
"I hope you're right. I love you too Peeta".
Please be right Peeta! I don't know if I can do this alone. Am I really ready for this?
