Ch. 3: Ryan
I am clearly asleep, but my dream takes me back to the arena. "Mary!" I holler. "Come on Raynor do something!" The look in his eyes told me and I just broke down right there, "NO! Raynor you son of a bitch! Get Mary!" but Raynor has already left me and comes back with Audrie. I awake confused, and don't know where I am. I sit up and wince. My stomach is bandaged and my leg is wrapped up too. I see someone on the corner of a well lit room because of the fire. I can see the figure move at the sight of me awake. The figure rushes towards me and I am embraced and smell some kind of flower, a scent I know too well when she hugs me tightly and says that she was glad she got to me before the wolves did. Mary, the only girl from my district that was in love with me the way I love her. She kisses me and after I ask how she survived! She just can't answer because she is to busy trying to keep me down on the table so I don't strain myself. She just smiles and asks if I am glad to see her. I tell her that maybe she should come closer so she can hear me incase my voice isn't working. She smiles and bends down, ear to me lips but I just turn her head and kiss her. She's startled at first then relaxes and kisses me back. Then she breaks off and tells me that I should rest. I watch her go move a bed close to the table I'm on and she hops in the bed and turns from me. I know why she is doing this, it was me after all who is to blame for her almost getting killed.
