It is getting late, so standing up I make my way to the door and away from the party that everyone is celebrating. Yay, we made it this far, seriously don't jinx yourselves. Getting lost in my thoughts I was painfully unaware of the figure creeping up behind me. Well that was until they grabbed my shoulder and spun me around.

It was Eric Jerk Culter.

"Well done on getting through this stage" Erics says, smirking at me.

"What do you want, Eric" I say, ignoring his 'congrats',

He looks at me strangely before asking,

"What's wrong? What did I do?",

I sigh loudly and turn around, but he grabs my shoulder once again and spins me around.

"What did I do?" He asks again, though a bit more forceful this time.

"I don't get it. Why're you talking to me? Wasn't I just a one night stand?" I say, scowling at him.

He opens his mouth to say something, only to close it and look at me like I've grown a third head.

"Yeah that's what I thought" I say sadly before turning around and walking away.

As I got into my bed, I could still hear the pounding of the music from the dining hall. I slap my hand over my mouth as my sobs start to rip out of my throat. Why did it have to happen to me.

And that's how I fell asleep.

Crying. Over a jerk who just happened to steal my heart.

(Time skip)

Opening my puffy red eyes, I see everyone getting dressed and ready. I overslept? That almost never happens. Hopping out of bed, I throw on some fresh, crisp new clothes and leave for the pit. We were told yesterday that we had to meet here. Not bothering to wait for anyone else, I keep walking till I come across my destination. I almost stop and turn back around when I see who's there waiting. But somehow I manage to keep walking and stand in front of four.

It took about three minutes for everyone to get here and when they did Eric started his speech. This time I listened and focused without drooling over his perfect bod- brain stop.

At the end of his long speech we all learned that we were going to go through fear trials....once the list went up I groaned loudly. I was first up. Yay. Walking over to four I ask him,

"Is Eric going to be in there with us?"

He looks at me and shakes his head, and i sigh loudly in relief. I blush a red as he chuckles at me.

"It's just me in there with you....may I ask why? What, you afraid he's going to use them against you" he says, jokingly.

I nod my head, "yeah, something like that".
