Jobys POV:
Me and Kairi are put in the same room in the Justice Building. Katniss and Peeta are the first to see us, even though they are our mentors. I drag Peeta to the other side of the room.
"Me, you, and Katniss need to talk when we get on the train," I say in a hushed voice. He nods and then for some reason four girls come in and hug me. I know there from my grade, but I don't know their names. They each give Kairi a dark look. I look at her and I know that she's not happy with me.
Were then forced onto the train and I'm in my room with with Katniss and Peeta. "We have to make sure that Kairi wins. I will make sure it's the both of us in the final two and I'll do something to kill myself, so she can win. No exceptions, I wanna get her out and so do you." I say only loud enough for them to hear just incase Kairi was snooping around. Me and her always played soldiers, so we knew all the signals and hot to very quietly creep up on enemies.
We soon got ready for dinner. Rosado was there, teaching Holly how to use a fork instead of her fingers, the bad thing was I had to sit between Kairi and Holly. "Just kill me now!" I thought noting want to eat dinner tonight because I had to sit between these two.
I eat some lamb stew. Katniss told us stories how she used to only eat this in the Capitol. This was her favorite food and she was already on seconds before I finished my first bowl.
I excuse myself from dinner to watch the other reapings. I know a few of the other Victors. The one from last year and the year before that. Another one that is 18 and he won 3 years ago at age 15. We get two volunteers in District One and Two. Great so that means the Career pack is going to be even worse, this year I think in my head. I cover my ears trying to pretend there is no games and me and Kairi are not on our way to the Games. Holly then came over and sat really close to me and Kairi gave her a really ugly look.
"Hi Holly..." I said quietly.
"Hey Joby" she said and her eyes were fixed on mine.
She leaned in and kissed me. That's when Kairi snapped. She came across the table and started to yell "Who do you think you are?"
" I happen to be his girlfriend" Holly shouted.
Kairi stared at me then took off to her room in tears.
Holly looked after her and then looked at me. "What's wrong with her?" She asked.
Aero chuckled and then quietly went back to eating. I sigh and get up from the couch. Aero sat there watching everything go down, but his face was emotionless now. I walk to my room and hear Kairu crying and Katniss trying to calm her down. I walk in to see Peeta standing there waiting for me.
"I know, I know. Kairi likes me," I sat hoping not to get yelled at. "But I love her too. But I can't choose which one. Why did I have to be born?" I say.
