Before he had been called back to his room, Calcifer had seen the faint blush upon Skye's cheeks, which made him blink yet again. After he said goodbye to her, he frowned as he left the training room and followed after his stylist, and only then did he notice that his heart was fluttering like the beats of a humming bird's wings. Surprised, Calcifer stared down at the ground as he trailed behind his stylist, who was much, much shorter than he was.. The stylist must be at least five seven, over a foot shorter than him.. Heh, looks like Calcifer towered over everyone.
Sighing under his breath, Calcifer strode into his room, where his stylist and mentor started talking to him about the scoring.. They told him that he should use the ax since he is the best at that and one of those heavy, at least four hundred pound metal balls to toss. Calcifer could lift more than that definatly, having a District record of eight hundred on a home-made bench press.. Maybe he could get the heavier load.. Just to impress the Capitol people, or whoever will be scoring him. The entire time that his mentor and stylist were talking to him, Calcifer was thinking about Skye, feeling his heart ache as the seconds ticked by...

---

Calcifer had been up well before dawn, unable to go back to sleep. His brief dream, which had ended only moments ago, had been of Skye.. It had been going perfect, until it came to the Games.. Calcifer knew that one of them would have to die.. Or both of them would... The thought of it made his gut twist sickeningly, making him frown even more. His mentor immediately noticed Calcifer's down mood and asked him what was wrong, and Calcifer knew that he couldn't tell the truth, so he came up with a lie...
"I'm.. nervous about the scoring.. Can I go train some more? Alone? I need to.. be alone to focus clearly.." He spoke in a low tone, and when his mentor and stylist agreed, he let out a breath of relief. He was hoping more to see Skye.. But he could train a bit more as well, just to make sure that his mentor and stylist didn't catch him lying to them.
After eating the small meal that was given to him, and downing down a cup of coffee, Calcifer strode out of his room and walked down to where the training room was, and he was relieved to see that it was empty.. Everything was at his disposal to use. Seeing that Skye wasn't there, he frowned a bit, sighing as he strode into the training room and went to the station with the axes. He took one, then chucked it at one of the targets. His aim was precise, and his skill with the ax itself was at an adept level... He didn't need to train.. He just wanted to see Skye again.. Tomorrow they would be in the arena...

Skye was on her way down to the training room, the one where they would be scored. She heard someone practising and frowned... What if they were in that allied group of careers? She just sighed, knowing that she could be brought down by most of them...
But she had her knifes here, and if she was sneaky they wouldn't notice.
So the blonde headed girl peaked around the corner, hearing the grunt she had yesterday. She smiled wide and ran inside. She slowed her pace when she got to Calcifer, not wanting to scare him, her footsteps were quiet... The scary thing was that when she meant quiet, she meant silent.
Absolutely silent... Unless she was running, which she had been, so she was sure he would hear her. "Hey," She said happily, just in-case he hadn't.
She couldn't help but hope he couldn't hear her heart beat, it was beating loudly in her chest, not because of her running, but because of him...
She knew she would have to let him know before the games...
Or she might never get to tell him...

Calcifer could feel his muscles start to burn again as he repeatedly threw the axes, all of them landing on their target except for one, which had missed the target narrowly. He sighed and wiped at his forehead, twirling one of the ax's in his hand while he glanced around the room. His last day to train before the scoring.. And before he would be taken to the arena. Once in the arena, everything was life or death. And he couldn't afford to let himself get killed off easily... He also couldn't let Skye get hurt. If she was hurt in the Games...
He was soon dragged out of his thoughts when he heard footsteps running into the room before everything went silent. He stiffened up at once, not knowing who it was at first.. For all he knew, it could have been one of the Careers that wanted to come back to get revenge on him for what he did to them the previous day. Thankfully, it wasn't one of those Careers. Instead, it was the one person, the one girl, that was able to make his heart hammer in his chest. Skye. As soon as he heard her voice, Calcifer felt as though he would drop to his knees right there. He had been longing to see her, or at least hear her, the entire night...
Letting out a breath, Calcifer turned around a bit so he could see her, a small, hesitant smile appearing on his lips, something that he rarely does. "Hey.. You got me worrying that a Career came into the room.." He said with a slightly teasing edge to his voice, his vibrant blue eyes glinting with amusement. He could literally feel his heart slamming up against his sternum with each beat, and he was surprised that he could hear himself breath. He was so happy to see her.. Just seeing her makes his heart leap and his spirits soar.. He truly has fallen for her..
But they're doomed anyway to the Games.. Calcifer didn't know if he should tell her or not.. What if she didn't feel that way about him? How would they be able to be together anyway? They're from two different Districts, and there is only one district that could win.. Not two.. One. One of them would die, or they both die... Calcifer hated to think about that, so he shoved thoughts thoughts away for now.
"Training to be better during the scoring?" He asked her as he looked back at the target and chucking the ax that was in his hand at it, and the ax's blade thudded into the head of the target. He gave a slightly bigger smile of approval, running a hand through his hair as he looked back at Skye.

Skye smiled at him. "Uh... Yea, I guess... But I was really just trying to get away from the commotion," She said with a sigh. She looked up at him, her heart pounding in her chest. She had missed just being by him, she couldn't help but leave that smile that light up the room on her face...
She knew she would have to tell him sooner or later, she didn't want to die with that on her chest and she defiantly didn't want him to die without knowing...
Even if he didn't feel the same about her.
She picked up a few knifes and threw them perfectly at the targets, hitting each one on, or close to bullseye. She looked at him, as if it were some kind of playful competition between the two.
Even though it wasn't.
She knew cameras would be watching them, people from the capitol already were... They were alone, and people knew something was up with them, so they would be being watch right now...
But honestly, they were always being watched... Weren't they?

Calcifer smiled back at Skye, listening to her speak while he picked up more axes, doing the same routine over, and over again, his accuracy sharp and precise. "Yeah.. Big commotion going on with the scoring coming up soon.. Every tribute is a nervous wreck.." He murmured as he ran a hand through his hair, all the while keeping his soft gaze fixated on Skye. The longer he looked at her, the more he felt the urge to go closer to her.. His heart was starting to ache in his chest as he smiled at her once more, but this time, it was a bigger smile. A real one. For once in his life he was actually smiling..
He watched Skye throw the knives and was yet again impressed by how adept she was with those blades. She was certainly a better aim than he was with knives! He looked at her and met her eyes, his own having a little playful glint in them, like a challenge. He looked to the knife station and gave a smile, walking over to it and picking up a knife before walking back to where the targets were. "I'm gonna fail at this.." He muttered before he threw the knife, which hit the target about six inches from the bulls-eye. He was way off.. Calcifer smiled and shook his head, running a hand through his hair. "I suck with knives.. To me they're only useful when cutting something.." He murmured, looking up and glancing around. He wasn't sure if the Capitol was watching their every move.. Well, considering that they were alone, the Capitol probably was watching.. Probably looking to see if something will happen between the two. Yesterday they already saw Calcifer defend Skye, so they were obviously seeing something going on.. Eh.
Calcifer looked back at Skye, deciding to ignore the fact that the Capitol might be watching them.. He didn't care. Skye was here with him, and that was all that he cared about at the moment. Now he just needed to tell her.. Or show her somehow. He didn't want to end up dying in the arena without letting her know... He cared for her far too much to let that happen.. He hoped that if they were the last two standing that the Capitol will let them both win... He wouldn't be able to live with himself if he would have to fight Skye in the arena..
He shifted his weight a bit, not really knowing how he should even say or show it.. Does he just say so? Or does he do something to let her know? Crap.. He ran a hand through his hair, thinking..

Skye couldn't help but laugh at Calcifer's attempt, he laugh was one that made everyone want to be around her, it made everyone stop what they ere doing. not because it was loud, or obnoxious, or anything bad, but because like her smile, it was contagious, it made everyone in the room smile a bit more, it made people get quiet just to hear it. She stopped laughing and looked at him.
"You're doing it wrong, you gotta relax, and aim, then throw..." She said with that same smile that she had first shown him. She threw a knife and it hit dead centre of the bullseye.
She looked at him, knowing that they were being watched, knowing that they wanted to see something between them, but in her eyes she was completely oblivious to the fact he like her, so she kept her feelings hidden, she wanted to let him know and she knew she would have to let him know...
She didn't want to die without telling him, or let him die without knowing, and she knew if she didn't before the games that was going to happen.
No matter what, it would. even if she tried to find him, she doubted she would be able to before one of them was killed by someone else, and she knew if one of them was going to die.
She had the better chance of dying than he did...

Calcifer heard Skye laughing at his attempt, and for some unknown reason, he had to chuckle along with her. If it was rare for him to smile, then it was even rarer to ever get him to even chuckle. Usually he would never even smile.. But Skye.. She was making him smile and laugh in a way.. He didn't know how she does it.. Amazing. He blinked slowly as she instructed him with the correct way to wield a knife, and he listened to each step carefully. "All right.." He murmured, just as he prepared for a second attempt.
This time he did relax, taking a careful aim on the target center.. And then he threw it. This time, the knife thudded about three inches from the bulls-eye. He did much better than before, at least. Calcifer was bulky and constantly dealt with axes, so he really wasn't made for throwing knives. "Eh, better than before. I'm not exactly made to throw light-weighted knives." He said with a slight chuckle, running a hand through his hair yet again. Yep.. Not made for throwing knives. But if the knives were a bit heavier, he may be more accurate. It seemed that with him, the heavier the object was, the more precise his aim was. But that was just him.
Calcifer looked up at the clock, seeing that they would have to return back to their rooms soon.. He frowned almost immediately, his heart sinking a bit. He hated it how time flew by when he was with Skye.. He wished he could stay with her much longer. And he better tell her what he needed to tell her soon, before he would be forced to leave the training room and go back to his own room and merely await his turn to go score and then sleep overnight and await the Games tomorrow... He didn't want to leave the training room without telling Skye what he needed to tell her.. Or he wanted to at least show her.
Again, he shifted his weight uneasily, letting out a breath as he looked down at Skye, his expression serious but soft at the same time, with a hint of concern.. "Skye.. There's.. something I need to.. tell or show you.." He murmured hesitantly, feeling his heart pick up the pace as he spoke. Oh great.. Other tributes were nervous about scoring, but he was more nervous about telling Skye something. God, he was pathetic. (xD) Time was soon going to run out, and he needed to let her know..

She looked up at him, smiling faintly until she realized that he was going to say something. She was a bit worried about what he was going to say for some odd reason... "What is it?" She asked, looking up at him, wanting to tell him how she felt but being to afraid too...
She then became worried, "Are you okay?" She asked, thinking he had gotten bad hurt from yesterdays 'little' fight...
The people of the capitol were obviously watching them, eagerly...
She could tell, the cameras were always on them but now more than ever...

| | It's okay. x3 | |

Calcifer swallowed thickly as he tried to piece together his words, wanting to have a good way to tell her without having her react in a bad way.. He didn't know that she had feelings for him as well, so it was even harder for him to say that he needed to. "Um.." He hesitated, biting on his lower lip a bit as he looked away for a few moments. Such a tall, burly man, and he was afraid to speak.. Wonderful. The Capitol was probably laughing at him right now for his coyness to speak to Skye. He seriously needed to suck it up and just say what he needed to.
When she asked him if he was okay, he nodded immediately, swallowing again. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine.. Just.. trying to think of a good way to.. tell you.." He murmured again, running his hand through his hair as he looked at her in an almost nervous way. "I..." He began, but his voice failed him. Obviously, it was going to take him forever to tell her. The easiest thing he could do right now is just show her.
He knew that the Capitol was watching even closely now, waiting to see what he would do..
Calcifer glanced up at the clock just as it struck time, and it was going to be their time to leave in about a minute.. He sighed heavily and looked at Skye. "Don't hate me for this.." He muttered under his breath simply before he went closer to her, taking her chin between his thumb and forefinger, tilting her head up just as he inclined his own head, pressing his lips to hers briefly before he could even think twice. (Woo! ;D)
Well, hell. He had no idea how this was going to end up. He could feel his heart hammering wildly in his chest with worry while his gut twisted into knots, nervous about seeing Skye's reaction. Just then, the announcer was calling them to go back to their rooms.. The scoring event was going to start soon..

Skye waited for what he was going to tell her, the suspence wasn't helping her feel any better either. Just as he kissed her her eyes widened, and she blushed horribly, knowing the cameras were on them, only made it worse.
She didn't know how to react... She just stood there for a moment, and then closed her eyes, wrapping her arms around his neck, standing on her tip-toes just so he wouldn't have to lean down so much. She heard the voice over the loud speaker but didn't register what it actually said.
She could feel her heart pounding in her chest.
She was terrified that he would hear her heartbeat. Skye had forgotten about everything that was going on...
No hunger games...
No scoring....
Nothing mattered right now... She didn't want to pull away. But she knew she would have to sooner or later.
