Nomination Night

"Theresa, please go to the Head of Household room." The announcer called over the speakers later the next day.

(This is it. Tonight, I have the power to choose who will be on the chopping block. Theresa).

Sitting in her private room, Theresa reads the instructions left for her on how to go through with the Nomination ceremony.

"Choose two people that you wish to nominate, and place their keys in the bag."

Looking at all the keys in front of her, Theresa comes across her two picks, and quickly places them into the bag. She then takes the remaining keys, and places them all in the key box. Sighing, Theresa gets out of her room, locking the door.

"You okay?" Whitney asks as she comes by Theresa.

"Yup. How are you doing?"

"Alright. Wish my life wasn't so complicated." Whitney says wistfully.

"You and me both, girl."

"Hey, Theresa, can I ask you something?"

"Sure, what's up?"

"You don't mind that Fox and I are flirting with each other, do you?" Whitney asks curiously.

"No. Fox and I had a great relationship, but we realized we weren't meant to be. We're still friends, and that's how it's meant to be. If you and he are enjoying each other's company, then who am I to go against that?"

"Thanks, girl." Whitney says, giving Theresa a hug.

"No problem."

They head off to the kitchen where they see Fox and Ethan talking at the bar.

"Hey, guys." Theresa says.

"Hi, there." Ethan says, smiling.

"Are you guys ready for tonight's nomination ceremony?"

"Yeah, I guess so. We know you'll make the right choices, Theresa." Ethan says with a wink.

(He's so cute. I try to ignore my attraction to him since Gwen is still here, but man, it's hard! Theresa.)

"I hope so, Ethan. I really hope so."

Later on at night, Theresa gets told to go get the Nomination box. Putting it on the kitchen table, she then goes outside to call everyone in. "Alright, guys, it's time!"

Waiting until everyone is sitting at the table, Theresa stands at the head of the table. "Alright, everyone, this is the first nomination ceremony. We will have one of these every week, where the head of household will nominate two people for eviction in a few days. The keys that you see now represent each house member who is safe from eviction. Once your name is called, you will take the key chain, and wear it around your neck. The two people that do not have keys given to them are the two members nominated for eviction. I will pull out the first key, and then the person whose name I call will pull out the second, and so on. This decision was a hard one to make, but I did it solely based on game strategy. Good luck." With that, Theresa begins to pull out the first key. "Fox." Handing the key to him, Theresa says, "you are safe this week."

Fox then places the key around his neck, and pulls out the second key. "Ethan." Ethan then takes his key, puts it on his neck, and calls the next name. "Whitney."
Whitney does the same action. "Chad." Chad then pulls out Mike's key. "Mike, you're safe."

Looking around the table, Gwen notices she doesn't have a key. "Gwen, Sarah. I have nominated you both for eviction. Sarah, I nominated you for eviction because I felt that as the quiet player, you wouldn't pose a big threat to me, and I wanted to play it safe." Sarah nods, then Theresa looks at Gwen. "It's no secret that we aren't getting along. I nominated you because you are a strong and powerful player, and in order to get through the game, you have to eliminate your strongest opponent. This ceremony is now concluded. Those of you who have a key, please place it back on the picture wall under your name."

Leaving the room, Theresa sighs. (That was a lot tougher than I thought. I want Gwen out of here, and I'm going to make it my priority that she leaves.)

(That tart thinks she'll get rid of me? Not likely! My name isn't Gwen Hotchkiss for nothing! That girl will get what's coming to her, and good!).
