The Mating Games Cherryle's Story

Part 17

Cherryle's POV:

Training,

I train in the weight lifting section first,
I win bets with arrogant men and win myself $20.

I train with jungle gym,
I do flips, pull ups, one armed monkey bars,
And stretch.

I train with bow and arrow,
Eat the given apple and shoot through my first arrows.

I train with blades,
I have to make my own dummies to practice on in the end because I tore through the originals in every possible angle.

I train with moving targets,
Shot through the targets and almost hit a frail blond girl across the gym.

I run on the treadmill, but after 20 minutes the bell goes to leave the gym... that aspect is going to be my demise, the fall of my strategy; if is a fault at all that is.

When I'm back in my room I shower,
I scrub my body with the loofa until my skin is pink, wash my hair thoroughly and turn off the shower tap.
I open the shower door and feel the harsh cold air on my sore body.

I quickly get accustomed to the breeze and check the bag of clothes after I've towels off.

The bag contains the outfit for my last meal before The Games tomorrow:

And shoes to match;

After I put them on I looked in to find another two objects.
I pulled one out to find a new mask, clearly the bag had been specifically designed for me.

I pulled out the last item to find a hair pin of white flowers and a note;

'Gifts are meant for use, and this one comes with a no return policy, my Lady.
                            Sincerely, 'Yours''

I read it aloud to myself before I clued in that I couldn't turn down the mask.
Even though it was much more showy, it was mandatory.

I called in my friend (maid) and asked her her opinion, to which she declared she would do my hair and makeup.

So she did my hair:

And added some mascara, eyeliner and eyeshadow to give me this look;

I stopped her from doing much else but she ended up giving me a indigo coloured lipstick, and highlighted my face;

I thanked her and I sneaked a dagger into my bra strap when she wasn't looking, and so we left.

A/n;
Exited for the feast? Me too!
I have an idea of how I want this all to go but I have an open mind for suggestions!
Love you all sooo much, I can't believe how many views I've gotten.
And I LOVED piecing together the outfit, do you like it? I think I'll be attaching photos of her outfits and scenery more.
Thank you sooo much for reading.
