Clio-The 56th Hunger Games

Chapter 2

The artificial light from the train wakes me.

I've got basically 1 more full day until we reach the Capitol. Home of freaking stupid people with alien skin, wigs and too much money. I can't wait... Not.

The bed covers are so warm I don't want to get up, but there's a clock next to me that says 10:38am so I get up. I push off the covers and stand in the compartment looking at a clothes catalogue, where we are supposed to pick our clothes for the day. I choose a light blue dress that is shortish and flowy. Simple and perfect. I like it. I tap on it and within seconds it comes sliding onto the wardrobe rack.

Once I've gotten dressed, I brush my hair, put it up in my bun, rinse my face and brush my teeth.

I walk out to the breakfast table and see Leo sitting their alone. Then I remember last night.

He spots me and I blush as u walk over to him, putting a large scoop of cinnamon oats, mixed berries and a piece of buttered toast on my plate.

"Morning," he says blushing too.

"Morning. So what's today?"

I say.

"Travels, mainly and we will watch some replays of some Hunger Games."

I agree and shove a big spoonful of oats into my mouth. I smile at him as I put another spoonful of berries into my mouth.

"What?" I say as I see we are both staring at each other.

"Nothing," he says grinning. I shove his arm playfully. We continue with breakfast until Craig appears followed by the rest if them.

The day goes by quickly, nothing too exciting.

"Dinner!" Calls Noley.

We all hurry out and grab a ceramic plate from the stack. I put on a groosling leg, a piece of grainy bread, a large spoonful of pasta and a spoonful of tomatoes on my plate. I sit down at the table and eat. It's pretty quiet the whole way through dinner until I Finnish and sit back in my chair. I see Leo finished too.

"Come with me Clio." He says, his hand out stretched. I grab his hand and he leads me out to a room where it's all windows, with only a couch in the middle.

We both sit down. "How are you liking it so far?" He asks

"Well I pretty much know my life is doomed, even if I do make it out I'll be damaged-" he cuts me off short. I look at him for a while and then I look out the window. He means how do I like him. Duh.

"Your pretty nice." I say smirking at him.

"Is that true he says, planting a kiss on my cheek. I blush and raise my eyebrows. "Well, I'm not that nice!" He says, picking me up and flinging me over his shoulder. I slap his back a couple of times and shriek at him to put me down. He plonks me in my bed then kisses me again.

"Night." He says as he leaves.

I wake up to the sound of Noley tapping on the door. I get up and choose a brown dress out of the catalogue. Once my hair is done I wash my face and open the door.
