Mia brought me to my room and was organizing it 'better' while I got dressed into something more comfortable for me. When I was done we both sat on my bed and talked. We talked about the chariot and our outfits. We talked about what I would be wearing for the interview, even though we had NO idea yet!!! After a long time we started talking about sponsors and how to get them.

"So, I do believe that you both have a few sponsors already from your chariot ride. Many people loved you guys. In fact I think Damien is dealing with those people as we speak," Mia said looking into my eyes. I looked away as I said, "Well, whats the point for sponsors anyway? Im going to die in there! I just know it!" "Dont think like that! You are very smart, and you look very strong! You could win this," Mia almost yelled at me. "But all of the sponsors are going for district twelve probably! You saw them today! Their outfits were breathtaking," I blurt out. Oh no I just showed Mia that I noticed something other that what I should have. I was suppose to block everything else out but me, Cato, and the crowd! Im so stupid!

There was silence for a wile until Mia said, "Well we better get going, food is probably ready." We both stood up and I followed Mia out into the hallway, closing my door behind me. As we walked back down the hallway I could smell the aroma of all different foods mixing. It filled the air.

When we got to the table Damien, Amangela, and Cato were already eating the delicious looking food that was layed out on the table. As I sat down Mia said her goodbyes and stepped into the elevator. I heard the clanking on plates and steady breathing, but nothing else for about ten minutes after that.

When I was done with my first plate I finally broke the silence by saying, "So Damien, Mia said we already have sponsors! Is that true?" He sighed and said. "Yes that is true, and I just met with them. There are three so far, but that doesnt mean that you dont need more! You do!" with a mouth full of food that was almost flying out! "Damien! Manners! You know how the capital is," Amangela's silly accent rang out. "Well well! I know! Anyways just keep doing what your doing and you will have sponsors lined up," Damien said almost happily. "Well it looks like dessert is coming," Cato said trying to change the subject. And he did!

The cake and ice cream looked so good! I could hardly hold myself back from eating it all myself! When I looked up at who was serving us it was the same avox who was in my room! I had almost forgotten about her! "I know you right," I blurted out to her without thinking. I know im not suppose to talk to avox's, but I needed an answer! Everyone gave me a concerned look except for Cato who was studying the girls face. She just shook her head and left before I could say anything more. Silence filled the room as I turned to face everyone.

"How could you possibly know an avox Clove," Amangela asked me. "Uh... I... dont really know her. She just looks really familiar," I stuttered back to her. "Well even in that situation! You cant be talking to them," She almost yells back at me. Cato stands up to protect me, I think, and says, "I know who your thinking she looks like!" He winks at me and I said, "Oh yeah! now I remember that girl from history class! Right!" "Right," he says smiling at me. He really saved me!

"Well! as long as its just her 'look alike' then its okay... i guess," Amangela said almost sadly. About twenty minutes passed with us eating in silence. "Okay! Im heading to sleep! And you guys should too," Damien said pointing at me and Cato. "Yeah, sounds like a plan," I said yawning. We all got up and left the table.

As we were walking to our rooms Cato said "Were you on the balcony yet?" All I did was shake my head no. Im so stupid! shaking my head instead of just saying "no, I didnt" ugh im stupid, stupid, stupid! I kept telling myself this as Cato pulled me outside.

It was chilly and, the chime hanging off the edge was moving alot and making a lot of noise. "Well, isnt it beautiful," Cato said with a bright face. I looked passed all of the people partying and the bright lights, and I really did see something beautiful. The amazing sunset! "Look out there! Passed all of this nonsense," I said looking into Cato's sparkling eyes. "Beautiful," he said almost in his former twelve year old voice. I heard voices way above us, I think it was on the roof so I said, "Hey Cato, Listen! There is someone on the roof!" We both stood in silence listening.

It was the district twelve tributes, Katniss and Peeta. I heard Katniss saying something about hunting outside of the gates, some 'Gale', a net, and someone screaming!? hmmm... I wonderd what she was talking about. Well I guess it wasnt important. I started to shiver and Cato put his arm around me. Omg! omg! omg! I was now warm and fuzzy inside.

A half hour passed as we stood like this and, I finally heard the roof door close. They must have left. "We better get some sleep too," Cato said to me as he gazed into my eyes. "Yeah I guess so," I say smiling at him. We both walked into the building still very close. Cato walked me to my room and said "Well ill see you in the morning then!" "Yeah, see you then," Is all I could stutter out. "Night," Cato said and, I whisper "Night," back to him. As he walked down the hallway I entered my room.

When I walked in I found the avox cleaning my room. "I know im not suppose to talk to you, but you shouldnt have tried to run away," I manage to say to her before she left. The avox WAS the girl from history class! She had tried to run away and the capital caught her, im guessing, and wanted her to suffer.

I start to think about the first day she wasnt in school. Thats probably when she was running away. I push these thoughts out of my head because im so tired, and hoppped into bed without changing. The jeans were very uncomfortable, but I was too tired to even care.

I just stayed there for a few minutes. I was thinking about training and how I would get my score. I wondered if I would get a high or a low score. My tiredness over came me after about twenty minutes and I finally fell asleep. My night was very quiet and I had no dreams, that I remember.
