(A/N: This is the first of this ship that I know of, so I don't have much to go on, but still, enjoy!)
I awake from a horrible nightmare, of which, I forget as soon as I see the light of day. I also feel a splitting headache, which I know to be from a massive hangover. I remember puking it all up last night.
I see a man in the bed next to me, in which I groan in disgust, one of my many Capitol lovers has made his way into my hotel room.
Even though Finnick gets a lot of lovers, I still get a fair share of the Capitol crawling to my door with a note from Snow. I know this man is from the Capitol because I can blatantly see the Capitol insignia stamped on the paper. I bet Snow put that on there with glee, which makes me hate this man even more.
I nip at his abs to wake him up. He smiles, and slaps my back.
"Ready for round two are we?" He purrs, drunk in the lust that now fills his eyes.
"Get out of my room." I snap sharply.
"Let's not play like that, ok, Glossy?" He smirks.
So I pick him up, which shocks him. It shouldn't shock him, I'm from a Career district, dammit! I open the door and throw him into the hall and lock the door.
I look out into the hallway through the circular peephole. He is standing up now, motioning for me to give him his clothes, since his bare olive skin is showing in the hallway.
I quickly chuck his bright colored clothes into the hallway and slam the door, having enough with Capitol people today. I throw myself on the bed, trying to get some more sleep.
I get about a half hours worth of sleep when a knock rings out through my door. I honestly don't have the heart to answer it, but I get up anyways and slip on a pair of pants and a shirt, then look through the tiny peephole. I see the flowing blonde locks of my sister, Cashmere, who impatiently starts knocking again.
I open up the door and she saunters in, looking as if she's had a bad night herself. She plops down on the bed, either ignoring the smell or she just has gotten immune to it. She just leans her head on my chest, stroking my hair, like we were fourteen again and she wanted to skip training.
"I hate it here." She scowls.
"Well, the joys of being pretty, am I right?" I respond sadly. All she does is nod her head, which is the usual.
"We have to go to the main hotel again." Cashmere states, as if forgetting it while she was here.
"Oh yeah, I about forgot, let me put on some underwear then." I quickly change into some underwear while my sister goes hysterical on my bed.
"That's so FUNNY!" She shrieks. "Just like so many times before, my brother!"
"You've done it, too!" I laugh, patting her shoulder.
She slaps my thigh and opens the door as I slip on some sandals, not even bothering to put on some socks.
The ride to the Tributes Hotel is very silent, us both sobering from the moment we've had before. Our stretch limousine is acquired to fit all six mentors, which I sit against the window, when we pick up Brutus and Attica, the mentors this year from District 2.
I feel bad for Brutus, since the person who usually mentors, Sander, backed out at the last minute. You can do that, but it's not technically legal. But it happens all the time with Careers.
Attica gets into the seat next to Cashmere as a shirtless Brutus lumbers into the seat next to me.
I don't know why he is shirtless, but it's kind of putting me on edge, and I find myself staring at his very prominent abs, but for a second, nothing that Brutus would notice, but my sister did. She gives me a somber look and goes back to her conversation with Attica. Finnick and Librae finally arrive as we are officially escorted into the District 2 suite.
All six chairs are prepared around the television, I see the tributes are already standing on the pedestals. Many of the tributes have a daunting look on their faces, knowing it might just be the end in less than a minute. The television splits into sections for us as our tributes get ready to leave the pedestal.
Brutus clutches my thigh then.
"Good luck to you all, may your tribute survive." He says kind of loud, and I smile to him then get to the screen.
Marvel is situated in between the cripple boy from District 10 and the girl from District 9, who both have a daunted look on their face.
The gong sounds as Marvel runs into the bloodbath, immediately running in for the bulk of supplies. I hear a tiny cannon as I see the boy from 9 slumped over on Attica's screen.
"Hand over the money, guys, Clove got the first kill!" Attica laughs.
We all hand over the twenty bucks to her as we get to the screens again. I see some prominent figures in the bloodbath, the boy from District 8, Ben, is very large, the size of Cato even. Thresh is also Cato's size, but more careful, not going into careless fights.
Marvel eventually gets his first kill when he finds the girl from 7 behind a crate. He quickly jabs her with the javelin and moves on. That's when a major cannon rings out, as I see on Finnick's screen, the boy from 8 looming over his tribute, Brench. He throws his controls on the ground, and my sister starts to comfort him. Cato takes out Ben as he is still over Brench, and his screen is covered. Librae's tribute Marina takes out the girl from District 9 in the forest then the cannons start to come in.
I look down to see Brutus' hand still clutching my thigh. He looks worried for the tributes, so I clutch his thigh as well, which makes him feel better, I see his blue eyes soften and he smiles, something that almost never happens.
I also get a feel of his thigh, very muscular and pleasing, almost nothing like my Capitol visitors.
That's when I feel the rush of blood toward my pants. My god, I'm having feelings for Brutus.
This never happens with guys, its usually one night and there gone forever. But Brutus must be different, his tan skin, but not too tan. His dark blue eyes shimmer, and I just want to stroke his bald head, and feel past his very muscular abs...
I see that my erection is showing now, but no one seems to notice, except Finnick. He grins then goes back to another screen, looking the Careers.
They get to quick work, setting up the pyramid for a long time, then going into the forest to scour for victims.
The only injuries are that Cato got a small cut on his arm from the boy from District 6, and Peeta, who got a hammering from Ben until he started to fight Brench. That's when the deaths come in
First is the girl from District 3, I don't remember that death at all. Next is Brench. Then the boy from District 5, and both from 6 and 7. Ben. Both from 9 and the girl from 10.
Everyone leaves as I notice the nighttime reigns now. I bring along my screen to see if any more deaths happen. Of course, none happen until I get asleep. The death of the girl of District 8 wakes me up. I see Peeta over her, with a sword in hand.
That's when I see a person in the corner, how did that person get in? I move the screen to show who the person is.
That person is Brutus.
