Flora Wheaton's POV
Kale and I walked to the Reaping together, I didn't have any family, and he had been in a fight with his brother yesterday. He was wearing a light blue sweater, and he had actually combed his hair. Kale was in my year at school, and at times you could tell, he had a huge crush on me. I was wearing a green dress; it came down to my knees, was cinched up in the middle, with straps. I was also wearing a silver choker Kale gave me.
When we arrived at the square, our annoying escort was telling stand-up. I looked to Kale and we both laughed, not because he was funny but simply because he was telling stand-up. We went to sign in expecting to be sent to the school or another public place, but I was told I had to stay in the square, and Kale was sent to a small bakery to watch. I was a little worried because, in District 11 they do a pre-drawing. Of course they don't choose the tribute; they chose 200 girls, and 200 boys to stand in the square. I wasn't too worried, I was 17 and had long legs, and was a little muscular, "Time to reap our female tribute!" he ran over to the reaping ball and chose a name⦠"Flora Wheaton! Where are you?" I glared at him and walked defiantly to stage. "Now to reap our boy... Gossan Kissite!" a large, black haired boy walks up to stage, and you could see the hatred on his face. "Let's have it for the tributes of district 11."
Gossan Kissite's POV
I sat in the dark room where I would say goodbye to my family and my friends. Goodbyes were almost worse than games. I couldn't wait for it to end.
My family came in first; my parents, my brother Amos(20), my brother Silas(15), my sister Yvette(12). I passed around hugs and lecture Silas and Yvette about how I might be back and I might not. Silas was more concerned than Yvette, Silas saw Amos and me as his role models, and Yvette is a tomboy from hanging out with all her brothers. My mother cries.
"Just try son, that's all we could ask for." My father usually has words flowing from his mouth, but that day he could barely utter a sentence. The guard came and they were gone.
My best friend, Erasmus, came in. He had been my friend forever. "Gossan, just win and I'll"
"Let me win a fight for once?" we know each other very well. We can read each others minds. He smiled.
"Yeah, please come back." I gave him a hug and he gave me a fist punch. The guard came and he left me.
Flora's POV
Kale came to say goodbye, and he got plenty of time, he was my only visitor. I ran into Kale's arms and tried not to cry.
"Don't worry, Flora. I'm sure you can win, you can, I know it."
"I wish I believed you." A tear escaped my eye, and he just held me until the guard came and Kale left.
I hope I did a better job on grammar and spelling this time, if there are still some mistakes I apologize, I'm terrible at editing. Please review.
