I sat there, staring intently at the boy on screen at the interviews. He had a brown, shiny suit that was gorgeous, and it fit his frame perfectly. I had to laugh when he walked up to Caesar. He was about a foot and a half taller than him. at first when they lined up, the tributes, he was the tallest by far, but he was one of the skinniest. Yes, he had muscles and looked rather intimidating, but not as intimidating as the tributes from seven, one, two, and four, all careers.

Since we didn't have a TV, Victors parents let me watch with them, knowing I was friends with him. his tall muscular brother sat next to me the whole time during the parade part of the games, and I must say, WAY to close. Our hips were touching. Maybe Its because I was wearing stuff I wouldn't usually wear… I had a skirt, and a tank top on, I never had that kind of stiff on, but I felt like wearing this for Victor. I am going to start a fund for him, maybe he'll get back… my attention was thrown back into the interviews when he sat down next to ceaser.

"nice to see you Victor! Wow! What a coincidence of a name! I wont even ask if you want to be one," the crowd laughed at such a lame joke, even Victor laughed a little.

"yeah, that would be GREAT," the crowd laughed again. He was obviously nice, likable and funny.

"so anyways Victor, tell us more about you," and so he did. He talked about his family, and when he said their names, they all sat a little taller, but had a little bit of sadness glued onto their faces as well.

"so Victor," Caesar laughed, getting back to the subject, "got anyone special back home you want to get back to in a-" he elbowed him, winking, "hurry?" Victor had to laugh, I couldn't blame him, the way he said it probably made half of panem laugh.

"yeah…sort of," he blushed a little, and now I couldn't stop staring.

"well who! Details! Details!" he smiled.

"she…she isn't like other girls… rather different, in a good way. I like her a lot, but haven't had the guts to tell her to her face, and when I tried to last time…I kinda got interrupted…" he made an exaggeraged head wave to the right, and the camera followed his nod, finding a peacekeeper…but not just any peacekeeper, the one that dragged him out of the room a day and a half ago.

I blinked, my mouth hanging slightly open. The camera's circled the audience, watching them laugh.

"so royal…who do you think he is talking about?" I was elbowed in the ribs, as I turned to my left, I found myself only about an inch from Victors brother, coil.

"no not really," blushing, I turned back to the TV, hearing him snicker at my reaction.

"more Victor! Tell us! How did he interrupt you?"

"by barging into my room when she was saying goodbye to me…" I had to gasp, knowing who he was talking about now.

"whats her name?" Victor looked dramatically into the camera, and a small childish grin spread over his face.

"her name… is Royal Clearwater…" my eyes shot open, and I looked around at his family. His parents were smiling at me in a shocked kind of way. His little sister, and older brother were both just shocked. I couldn't look at them anymore, I stood, and walked out of the house. It was raining again, as I looked up into the sky, tears merged with rain and as I stood there, I felt the sadness of reality sweep over me.

"VICTOR! YOU HAVE TO COME HOME!"
