Chapter 7- Anger

(Btw no one's guessed correctly yet. I knew District 13 would be too obvious which is why I DIDN'T choose it! :P)

Joey's POV

We were rushed off to get makeovers again. I had Julianna again. It was nice to see her.

Joey: Hi!

Julianna: You're back...

Joey: What's wrong?

Julianna: Nothing...

She didn't smile and she lacked her normal attitude. She seemed depressed instead of happy. I just sat quietly until we put on my outfit.

Joey: Wow. I love this! You're really talented!

Julianna: Thank you.

Joey: Seriously what's wrong?

Julianna: I'm not supposed to get attached to the Tributes. You probably won't make it out this time.

Joey: I know but no need to act weirdly about it.

Julianna: Well good luck.

She flashes a smile then walks out.

Shane's POV

X: You're so hairy. This stuff grows really fast.

He looks at me disgusted. I know I'm hairy! No need to point it out. Then he pulled some wax. I know what's coming.

*Hours later*

They ripped the last wax strip off of my leg. I've been grinding my teeth, trying not to scream.

X: Finished. Finally...

They throw me into my outfit them shove me over to the area with the horses.

Joey: Shane! Why are you pouting?

Shane: The past few hours they've been ripping hair off of my body.

Joey: Aww. Sorry.

Shane: Whatever.

Joey: Do you know any other Tributes here?

Shane: No. How would I?

Chad: You guys ready? Remember. Play it up.

We nod and get on our chariot. I grab his hand as he looks down at it He smiles then looks up at me.

Joey: Don't be afraid to kiss me.

He winked. I smile then kissed his cheek. We watched the chariots take off one by one until it was us.

Shane: I might make out with you. Be warned!

He laughs as our chariot takes off. People are cheering and chanting "Shoey". I grab his neck and kiss him for a bit. Then I let go and we smile at each other. The crowd goes crazy.

Joey: This is working!

Shane: I know babe!

He blushes which obviously caught on camera.

Joey: Babe?

Shane: Yeah. And I got a perfect reaction.

I pointed to his face on camera. He blushes again. Everyone is eating it up. This might work. Let's just hope Chad is reliable. If not then I hope Joey will be spared.

We get into the circle and we're getting stared down by most of the Tributes.

Joey: I have a feeling they hate us.

Shane: What gave it away?

Joey: Rude!

I roll my eyes at him while he laughs. The President Tube walks out and I see him glare at me for a second then begin his speech. I ignore it and look away.

Joey: What's wrong?

Shane: Nothing.

Joey: Really?

Shane: Yes Joey.

He nods but I know I this will come back up later. But I can't tell him about the plan. He'll stop it and ruin everything. I can't tell him. It hurts me but it's for his own good.

Joey's POV

We went up to our floor. Sam hugged us.

Chad: Good job Shane.

Joey: What about me?

Chad: Well Shane was the one charming you and the crowd.

Joey: But- You're right. Good job Shane.

Shane: Well your reactions were priceless. That was great!

We laugh then I drag Shane to my room. I sit down on the bed. He joins me smiling.

Joey: So will you stop lying to me and tell me what's wrong?

His smile drops. I know he's lying to me. And he knows that I know.

Shane: I'm fine. Just a bit nervous going into the Games again.

Joey: Why don't you trust me?

I tear up. Am I not trustworthy?

Shane: I- you- I just can't tell you.

Joey: Why not?!

Shane: Trust me-

Joey: How can I when you won't trust me?!

I shove him onto the wall. I'm full of anger and I have to take it out on something. I shove him out of my room then slap him. I left a red mark on his cheek.

Joey: Goodbye Shane!

I slammed the door in his face then jumped onto my bed. I start crying and eventually fall asleep.

Shane's POV

Man he was strong!

And I think we just broke up...
