1x1 With Sweet Pea

[x Mafi]

Seth smiled softly.

[ Do you want to timeskip to where Lily goes into the Games? :3 I have to leave tomorrow so I'll be gone for a while but I'll be here for tonight. ^^ ]

[twofrogsinacoat]

(Sure! (: How long will you be gone? ): )

--skip--

Lily's stomach dropped, her eyes widening as the color drained from her face. "Seth," she whimpered, grasping his hand tightly. She'd just been called back to the Games.

[x Mafi]

[ Probably until Sunday.. D: I'll be with my Grandpa and brothers fishing at our camp. ]

Seth froze slightly in alarm and frowned grimly, immediately grasping her hand and pulling her protectively against him.

(Awwwwwww okay ): )

The guards stepped towards them, and everyone's eyes flicked to the pair. "No no no, I can't go back, no!" she whispered in horror, clutching onto Seth.

[x Mafi]

Seth frowned, staring at the ground. "You don't have a choice, Lils." He mumbled in shock, glaring at the guards angrily when they started forward.

A tear ran down Lily's cheek and she forced herself to break off from him, slowly stepping towards the guards. They picked her up roughly by the arms and brought her to the stage.

[x Mafi]

Seth clenched his teeth angrily and glared after them with cold eyes.

Lily stood on the stage, trembling in fear. She looked out over the crowd, feeling like she could faint. All those nightmares, all those nights waking up screaming. It would all come back, if she made it home. Even so, the chances were slim.

Cole tensed rigidly when he heard his name called, his jaw clenching as he stared at the ground with wide eyes. So much for keeping a low profile and out of everyone why did he have to be paired with this girl?! He groaned quietly and closed his eyes, blowing out a low sigh and opening his eyes when one of the guards started towards him. "Don't touch me." He growled, shoving past the guard before walking up to the stage.

Lily stared at Cole, her heart pounding rapidly. Could she trust him? He'd let her go.
