I woke up to watch the television of Katniss and Peeta in my district. I am from district 10 and my name is Lily Stones. I am in the capital all alone though, because after I finished my first games. Snow came to visit me and said to come to the capital and see people for jewels and riches. When I said no, he killed my mother and father. Then threatened to kill my brother. So I left and have been visiting many different people. My brother hates me for leaving him, but what he doesn't know is that if I didn't leave. He would have been killed. He thinks mom and dad just killed themselves. Anyways back to the television. "Katniss and I want to share with you our victory. And our gratitude to the capital for bringing us together. It was the bond of love forged in the crucible of the games that was our greatest prize. For it is love and true love that allows us all to bear our hardships. That mends the heart and banishes loneliness and gives meaning to our lives." Peeta said and I felt sorry for them. It was obviously snow forcing them to say this stuff. He forcing the threats he has and can't get rid of to be hated. I was one, they were two. We were rebels. Well at least till snow took what we had and burned it. Leaving us with the ashes left behind. "We also want to share with you the sorrows of your losses. The tributes of the..." Katniss started, but stopped as she watched to people get pulled away to their death for symbolizing rebellion. I quickly turned off the t.v. wanting to see no more. I heard a knock on the door and walked over to open it. "Yes?" I asked. "Your to be on Caesar's show in 40. So get down there to get dressed." Todd my body guard said. I nodded and threw on some shoes walking back to the door to leave. We walked throughout the hotel I was staying into. Fans started to crowd around me as we walked, but I just kept chin up and kept a straight face on... When we arrived at the make-up room. They threw me in a dress and threw make-up on. Pushing me to the stage as fast as they could. The music started as I walked on stage. I sat down in a seat next to Caesar. We waited for people to stop clapping before we talked. When they finally did Caesar said "So lily we've heard you been traveling through the capital visiting many of your fans. Is this true?" He said smiling. "Yes, it is." I said stated simply. "Well if you will tell us and your fans how they could get you to come visit them." He said. "Its supposed to be a secret thing, but I mean if you have questions for me please. Ask away." I said. "Your brother, Sam is it?" He asked making me nod. "Well since you've been gone from your district for the past 8 years from him. How has he been?" He asked. "Oh well me and him haven't really talked in a while, but I would guess pretty good." I said, but I was really scared of how he was actually doing. I send him all the money I get. Which is a lot. So I would hope he is doing good, but at the same time. He is all alone since mom and dad are dead and I'm gone. "Well next time you see him. Tell him Caesar said hi." He said showing a sad face, but I knew it was fake. No one really actually cared about anyone, but their selves in the capital. "So the presidential palace will be having the party of the year. Will you be there?" He asked. "Yes, I would be dumb not to." I said making everyone laugh, but the truth was that I would be dumb not to. President snow would probably kill my brother for me not going. "Well there you guys have it. If you want to see Lily in person. Now you have somewhere to do it." He said smiling and all of the lights went off. Telling us we were done. We both got up and walked our separate ways. "So where to next?" I asked my body guard. "A guy named Aden has bought you for an hour." He said with his voice monotone. "Please stop saying it like that. I cannot be bought." I said walking off to the car and frowning... I knocked on the door and my body guard told me he would return in an hour. A guy in his late 20's opened the door and had a tux on. "Lily its nice to finally meet you." He said holding out his hand. I took it to shake his hand, but he pulled me into his chest and shut the door slamming me into it. "I only have you for an hour and president snow said as long as I pay you your for me to do as I please." He said running his down my cheek and breathing down my neck. I flinched away by turning my head. "Oh come on don't be like that." He said sliding his hand up my thigh. "I'll make sure you feel good too." He said kiss my neck up to my jaw. I let a tear slip down my face. Do it for Sam. I have to do it for Sam. I don't want to lose my virginity this way. Plus last time I refused to do it. Snow had the peacekeepers beat me till I couldn't get up. He started kissing me on a lips. Trying to get me to kiss back, but I wouldn't. "Kiss me back." He said gripping my thigh so hard. I knew it would leave a bruise. I whimpered and he grabbed me by my arm pulling me to a room. Where it had a king sized bed. He pushed me on it and took off all his clothes except for his black boxers. He went to climb on top of me, but I tried to crawl away. I felt like I was about to quit breathing. I was so scared. He pulled back down to him by my ankle though. "Come on I was promised an hour. If you want to do it the hard way than we will." He said. "Please stop. You don't have to pay me anything if you just stop." I said as he pulled off my shoes. "I'm not that bad looking am I?" He asked kissing up my legs. It felt good, but I felt really scared at the same time. I'd rather the beating than this. I thought as I kicked him in the chest and ran out of the room. I quickly opened the door to come face to face with snow. I gulped as two peace keepers showed up and grabbed my arms. "How many times do we have to do this, lily. This time will be your last beating, because I'll be sending back to your district after the presidential party. I have a big surprise awaiting you." He said and walked off back to that guys apartment. I trembled as the peacekeepers shoved me into the car and we drove back to the hotel. Where the beating would await me... We finally made it back to my hotel suite and they started beating me with the metal sticks and kicking and punching me. When they left, they had my make-up people come in. So for the party I would show no signs of bruises or blood. I spit blood out of my mouth as they helped me up. "Here take it show. Save all your energy for later." They said. Their names were Flaire and Glinte. They were my make-up people from the games. "Thanks." I said as they put me in the bathtub and drawled warm water to wash away the blood.
