Tris POV:
"I'm still betting on you, Snow Queen." Cinna whispered in my ear as I greeted him. Those seven words bring me so much hope. Cinna takes the six of us down to a basement where we can hide out until tomorrow. We're finally safe for a few hours without worry. I hug each of them." I'm so sorry guys." I take a seat on a wooden crate. "What are you sorry for? None of this is your fault" Peeta says sitting on the floor next to me. "Don't you see? All these deaths are my fault. I didn't have orders from Coin to kill Snow. It was all me. My plan, my fault. These deaths are on me." I say looking down at my hands.
"We know." Belle says, causing me to look up. "We knew you'd want. We didn't come here because of the footage Coin wanted. We came here for you." She finishes and I look at Four.
"Did you know?" I ask him. I need to know if he intentionally put himself at risk again for me.
"When you came here, Coin was furious with you so she sent me and Peeta in to diffuse the situation for the Capitol. She sent me in to get at Snow and punish you. So yes I knew what you were doing. I would've known even if I weren't sent in." He says. I get up and hug him tight. "You're an idiot but I love you." I whisper. He holds me tight against him. "I love you too." He whispers back.
After eating the last of our food, we sit around the crate and look at the map spread out on it. "How are we going to get to the house without being seems and without and pods going off?" I ask the small group.
"That's it!" Belle says excitedly and we all turn to look at her. I've never seen Belle get excited about anything. "What?" She asks and I shake my head in disbelief. "The president will want to protect those closet to him. He's disabling all the pods on his street. If we blend in, we could get a clear shot. Me, Peeta and Four will wait here because they are most likely to get recognised no matter what disguise they have on."
Once we've planned out the finer details, we make makeshift beds and settle in for the night. It's going to be a long long night.
