When we get back Effie, Haymitch and the stylists Joba and Miriam congratulate us on our scores and our fake relationship.
I say I am feeling tired so I can go to my room and get some sleep. I slip my high heels off and try to undo my dress but it won't unzip itself so I leave it on and lay on top of the covers. After a few minutes someone knocks the door, I don't have enough energy to answer so I just lay there but whoever it is walks into my room anyway,
"Hey darling it's me" Alex says
"Oh Hi" I reply
"Why don't you put something more comfy on, hmm?"
"I can't undo my zip!" I say
"Do you want me to help you?"
"Okay" I say tiredly
He walks over in a dressing gown, it's not tied up so you can see his pants and the rest of his body but he doesn't seem to care. He gently pulls the zip down and I slip out of my dress, he stands there looking at me in my underwear smirking,
"Well when I first met you I didn't think I would end up seeing this much of you baby"
I go under the covers and reply,
"Same here"
This makes him laugh.
He slides under the covers on the other side of the bed and lets out a sigh,
"Who said you can sleep in my bed!" I say
"Well I thought seen as we are in a relationship I could sleep next to you"
"Well your thought wrong!" I reply.
He moves over to me and facing my back he puts his arms around me. I struggle and tell him to get off but he stays put for the whole night.
In the morning I wake up with Alexander's arms still wrapped around my waist, I struggle but eventually get myself free of him. I decide to have a shower, get dressed and then call room service for breakfast.
When breakfast arrives I take two trays with plates on for me and Alex, I walk into the room to see Alex sat up waiting for me,
"Hey sweetheart!" He says,
"Hey I brought you breakfast"
"That looks delicious!"
"Yes it does I have got to agree!"
After breakfast I take the trays back out whilst Alex gets dressed. I see Effie, Haymitch, Joba and Miriam at the table eating breakfast. I put the trays on the table and walk out the door to the pool and bar balcony. Soon enough Alex joins me and we start to talk,
"I saw your interview last night you seemed quite scared of the Capitol in a way"
"Well I said I was… I wouldn't lie to you would I?" I reply
"No, but you just seemed-"
"Okay I seemed nervous I get it"
"What's wrong?"
"The only reason I went through with this was because Caesar Flickerman told me to and I had to agree, I am so sorry"
"It's okay and we can talk about this inside because I think there are cameras about from the Capitol magazines!"
"No, because I don't care about them, I care about you. I am telling you the clear truth but you don't seem to care! Every time I pour out my heart for you, you just ignore me … What have I done wrong for you hey?"
"Charley wait…" He says as I walk out of the balcony to the District 12 room. I walk through my bedroom door and lock it behind me, Alexander is shouting and banging on the door but I am not going to open it to him or anyone right now. I hear Haymitch shouting at Alex,
"What have you done wrong now?"
"Nothing you old codger"
"Don't you old codger me"
"Oh shut-up! Charley let me in, I'm sorry I should have listened to you, it's my fault!"
"I thought it was your fault"
"Oh shut-up Haymitch will you, look I know you don't like me but I love Charley so please leave me alone!"
"Whatever!"
I didn't come out of my room for food, I stayed there all night, I wanted to stay there for a day or so but I was getting bored of my room and my window wouldn't open for fresh air. It only opened when Alexander tried to open it, which was one of the many reasons I really liked him, he would do anything for me even if it was a ridiculous request. I tried to open the door but something or someone was lodged in front of it, I kept on pushing until I woke him up. He moved out of the way and stood patiently waiting for me to come out. I came out slowly with my hair looking a mess; he grabbed my hands and pulled me close,
"I am so, so, so sorry Darling, I love you so much and I should have listened. I knew that Caesar put you up to it and I don't care because I get to spend more time with you"
"I do know how I feel, I feel not ready for all of this but every time we kiss I feel like my heart belongs with yours … So I decided not to mess you around, I love you and we should officially be in a relationship so we are!" I answer
"Okay my lovely girlfriend!" He replies.
After our conversation we sat on the Capitol sofa talking about Effie's Makeup and laughing at her crazy wigs but Haymitch walks out so we bring this to a stop,
"Right time for your two all day training session"
"Two day training session?" I reply
"Yes honey, you stay at the training centre for two days" Alex adds
"Well obviously! And you stay there over night sweetheart"
"Oh okay, I will pack my things"
"No need, you will be given your training outfits and that's all you will have. They will make you all stay in one room so you will have a mini hunger games. It's like the hunger games but you can not actually hurt each other because it's not allowed and it's outside … whatever the weather. There are going to be real trees and bushes. Oh yeah and there's going to be baby Tracker Jackers and poisonous berries but they wont kill you they will just make you quite ill now come on lets go!"
