Notch's P.O.V.
I don't appreciate what Mr.Hughes tried to do to me a few days ago. The way his fist charged at my face was unforgivable. The anger in his eyes knew that I was making the right decision to bring him into these games. At first, it was just a hunch. But eventually, he doesn't suspect anything will happen for that ignorant attack on me. But I shall worry not. Has he forgotten who he's messing with?
Your P.O.V
Day 2
A fluttering sound in front of my face awakened me. A blue butterfly landed on my nose. It's wing looked bent. I raised my finger to my face as the creature crawled onto my finger. Suddenly, it's wing straightened and it took off into the trees.
I felt a presence on my hips which made me jump.
"Mitch! Oh sorry I forgot you were here" I said with relief.
He giggled and untied us from the tree. I ate two melon slices and gave the others to Mitch. We slowly made our way down the tree and continued on a journey.
I can't help but get that girl Jen out of my head. The way she just looked a t Mitch set a bomb off inside of me. The flesh of my insides boiling at the thought of her. I shook her from my memory. She isn't going to come between us.
We slowly walked along the forest as dirt covered our shoes and leaves flew in the wind, never landing on the ground. We didn't speak any words. Mitch and I's hands were holding each other's as we made our way through the arena.
The sound of a leaf crunching got our attention. Immediately, Mitch pulled out his sword and I readied my bow. We slowly tiptoed as we moved our heads left and right. Nothing was heard except the wind blowing. But Mitch and I were not to be messed with.
Back to back, we now were in a deadly alliance. The leaves crunched around us. The silence was too silent.
An arm sprung in front of my face, colliding with my face and I feel the warm liquid rush down my cheek as I fall to the ground. A bloody brown fist is visible in my blurred vision. A man was there, he seemed to be wearing nothing but brown. Mitch gazed at at him with a jaw dropped. He immediately dropped his sword and started whispering things to the anonymous being.
Mitch then took two blows to the face and one to the gut. He then fell to his knees, doubled over in pain. My vision began to clear for a second and I saw the face of the mysterious person. Jerome.
I barely had time to react until I completely blacked out.
*****************************************************************
A liquid was poured into my face which awoke me. I shot up to see a blond-haired boy pouring water into my face. His back was facing mine and he seemed to be brewing a potion. He found a brewing stand? In a chest? Now way he probably mined and cheated. But Notch won't care. He created these games. He must've known that this was bound to happen if it hasn't already.
I sat up and reached for my backpack to grab a sword. I inched over as to not make a sound and opened the pack. There wasn't a sword in there. I questioned myself.
"There's nothing in there. I cleaned your weapons even though there was no blood" the boy said as he turned around.
I took in his features. His blonde hair was messy and wavy, kinda like Mitch's but in a nicer way. He had no facial hair, but his beautiful blue eyes made up for it. His smile was straight and white followed by dimples. My weakness.
I noticed he stared at me like I did at him. He eyed my body and giggled. Oh how his laugh was enchanting.
"Sorry I should introduce myself. I'm Shawn" he said in a nice voice with a hand held out. I took it and told him my name.
"Thats a nice name" Shawn complimented.
"Thanks" I responded. "How did I end up here?" I asked realizing I was in a cave.
"I found you laying in the ground in leaves. There was blood on your face and an outline if a body near yours. I suspected whoever they were left you. I was thinking about killing you but I couldn't harm a beautifully stunning girl. You looked lifeless. So I picked you up and took you to my base and treated you. Notice the band-aid under your eye?"
I reached up and felt the material and blushed at this compliment.
"Well, thank you and all but I really should be getting back to.....a friend" I said not opening myself up to this stranger. Although he is adorable.
He grabbed my arm gently. "You need to stay! Well, I mean until you have rested enough and are ready?"
I smirked and said "Are you trying to flirt?"
He shrugged. "Is it working?"
"Kind of" I reply. "Fine I'll stay. But only until I am strong enough to run and hunt".
He nodded and handed me a regeneration potion. I drunk it and I instantly started to begin healing. Shawn walked away to a different side of the cave.
"How'd you get these potions?" I asked before he was gone.
"I know a guy" he responded with a grin which made me giggle. I turned towards the cave entrance to see a sunset. Before I sleep I need to think about where Mitch and how Notch got Jerome.
How'd they get Jerome? Take him? No, that bacca would put up too much of a fight to be contained. Then again everyone has their weaknesses. What about Mitch? Where is he? He seemed pretty beat up from the looks. I don't think he would've just walked off without me. Then again, this is survival games. He could've just been trying to help me. But how? Leaving your lover unconscious on the ground is pretty shallow. He does need to survive. I would rather have myself die then let myself live through the misery knowing I could've saved him. All these thoughts are ruining my brain.
I snuggle back on the rocks with a blanket. I can't sleep. Mitch could be in trouble. But that doesn't stop me from closing my eyes. I feel breath in my head and flash my eyes open. It's Shawn.
"Sorry! I was just trying to kiss your forehead" he yelped with a worried look.
I snickered "Its ok that's sweet"
He smiled. "So who's that friend of yours?"
I don't mind telling Shawn about Mitch. I am starting to trust Shawn now.
"Where do I start? He's my boyfriend and I am absolutely die hard in love with that boy. He makes me feel like the world has stopped spinning just so we can spend more time together. He's cute, funny, smart, adorable, and I could go on forever literally. Oh and when we kiss. Sparks fly through my body and I feel the electricity between us. Bounding us together, not wanting to be separated. The way he touches me sends gret chills down my body and I return the favor. He's just amazing" I tell Shawn.
His expression is slightly sad. "I'm gonna give you that kiss now" he states.
I close my eyes and say "Knock yourself out"
He smiled and brought his lips to me. I felt their softness and warmth which allowed me to sleep a little more peacefully.
