Hunger Games: Secured

Secured: Chapter Eight

The ride home was mostly quiet other than talking here and there, I sat beside Mrs. Botch with Best to my right, he thought he was slick because he was rubbing my thigh a lot, I glared at him and he smiled at me as he moved his hand away from my thigh. Luckily, it was dark in the shuttle and you could only see our faces as we passed light post, it was really dark, I almost jumped out of my seat when Best tried to put his hand behind my back and touch my butt, he was enjoying the enhancements the best he could.

"Stop." I whispered close to his body, but I didn't move my hand.

"You're not stopping me though." He whispered back, moving his hand closer to my butt as I allowed him to.

It hurt me that after I changed my body that he found me attractive, he reached forward with his other hand and grabbed one of my jumbo braids, I looked at his hand as he allowed it to slip from his fingers. His hand moved lower until it was now resting on the top of my butt, I leaned into his chest and rested my head on his chest as he moved his hand back up to my back and gently rubbed me there, making me feel comforted the best he could, Best was always the best.

We used to have a gamer team, the ones that were good in sports used to stay on the team while others came and went every other day. Someone on the team would make up a game and there was always a gift if you won, Best always got the gifts, I'd come and watch them usually play football with a throwing ball, usually the ones that didn't have much to do used to work in the farms.

"So, Greier," I perked up as Mrs. Botch called me," what do you want to do when you get out of the arena."

I was happy that she was saying it as if I was going to win, I smiled at that.

"I'm going to move on a ranch, have my own animals." I said, sitting up and smiling at the air as I thought deeply about it. "And Gaius with me."

"Really?" Rockro asked, cocking his head in amusement.

"Yea, I'll have baby sheeps and cows, even a dog. And I'll have my own family, I'll make sure they'll never have to starve ever again."

"So, a future with a husband and child?" Mrs. Botch asked, leaning forward and touching my thigh as I nodded. "Beautiful... just one child?"

"No, I'll get the ones from the orphanage I was raised in and raise them myself." I vowed, staring at her as she nodded before turning to Best.

"What about you?" She asked him.

"I... I don't know yet, I haven't really thought about it but... I'll probably run my Uncle's farm or so and sale to the Capitol for a good price, I'll have money for sure."

"Farmer and a Rancher, cute... perfect match." I was sure that if I heard "Perfect Match" one more time, I'd go berserk.

"Yea... perfect match." I muttered, turning to look out the window as Best's hand slid down my back once more and I responded by pushing back against his hand, telling him to go farther down.

He listened as his hand rested on my butt and I laid my head back against his shoulder, I knew that once we got home, all this cute 'lovey-dovey'ness would have to go right out the window because he was probably going to run to the bathroom and clean his mouth out with soap.

"We're home." It was quicker than it took for us to get to the ceremony, I climbed out first and headed straight toward the entrance with Best right beside me.

He was holding my waist and I was a little thankful because I liked him being close to me, not to mention that since the ceremony was over, cameras could record us all they wanted and we had to hold that image we just created together.
