Blake pulled Verene into the suite a little harshly and let go of her hand. why had he suggested this? it was going to suck but hopefully would make it so Verene went home. "the press is insane" he said quietly walking over to the window to watch the city
"Really I haven't notice after someone tried to grab onto my shoe." Verene said rubbing her arms. She looked around the room. "I guess we are now in a lovely cage for all too see." She walks over to Blake and looked out the window to see the reporters.
"you don't think someone trying to grab your shoe is a little crazy?" he said looking at her when she was beside him. "we will be in a cage for the rest of our lives" even if one of them managed to make it out the press and the cameras wouldn't stop
Verene laugh. "I think a person grabbing my shoe is the least of my problems. I do have to worry about killing 23 people to be the winner." She laughed again and pat her hand on his shoulder. "Well I am beat. I am going to take a power nap before the chaos happens." She then took off a pretty locket on her neck and placed it on the table. Then headed over to her room.
blake nodded as she vanished into her room. he didn't want to be nosy but he gently picked up the locket and looked at it. it was beautiful. he set it back down gently and wandered into the suite to find his room.
Verene open the door after 30 minutes of sleep and looked out to the window. She saw there were still reporters. She put back her necklace on her neck and looked at the picture of her mother and of her two dead siblings. She prayed a silent prayer to keep Ren safe from the harm her dad put her in. When she was done she heard commotion and saw a reporter shouting to her all the way to her window.
The Peackeepers then shoot him. Verene stepped away from the door and fell to the ground and hold on to her locket. Then she saw Blake and looked away. She hates being vulnerable. Cause being vulnerable was what cause her siblings to die. She stood up and went to get a glass of water.
"Yeah." Verene says. "Just never actually saw a stranger getting killed except my sister. Who was killed by the Peacekeepers. Sorry I probably should go and lie down a little bit." Verene went back but before she could reach her room. Caleb entered.
"Wow there I was just talking with the officials and there will be interviews right after d1." Caleb got a glass of whiskey and poured it in a cup. Verene looked at him with disgust. "That still doesn't give you the excuse of not being here with us." Verene says stepping to him with anger in her eyes. "Wow deary you finally are brave enough to talk to me. At first I thought you were the pathetic girl your sister was." Caleb says to her. "And I can see your the pathetic boy my sister told me about. The one who was petrified of being chosen the one who barely made it to the Hunger Games." Verene said.
blake wasnt quiet aure what the probelem was between them but he needed a plan and what better distraction from one problem then planning for another? "ok so we've started to figure out how we are going to survive but that hasn't gone beyond pretending we are a couple for the sympathy" he paused looking at Verene then Celeb " so what else are you going to tell us? or is that it?"
"That's it. Now you both can head to the training center." Caleb just left. Verene stared at his back as he left. "So... do you want to head to the Training yard?"
"Sure," he said walking to the door and pulling it open for Verene. "after you my love" he said with a laugh.
he laughed pulling the door closed behind him and walking into the elevator that takes them down to the training center.
Verene went and took a small shower to be presentable without all the sweat. She came out with a pair of leggings and brown t-shirt with her long hair cascading her back. She put her locket on and said a silent prayer. All she needed to do is now wait for Blake.
"Blake we need to talk strategy. D4 tributes are playing the same game as us. We need to be more. We need to show more affection especially in public. And we need a sob story to get them to sponsor us in the games." Verene said and walked to the window and saw April and Marcus kissing. "They put on a good show. But we can put a better show." Then she looked at Blake.
"you sound like you have an idea of what we should do," he said walking out in a pair of dark sweats and no shirt drying his hair off with a towel. He threw the towel over a piece of furniture and got comfortable on the couch. "what is it?"
Verene Headed to the couch opposite of Blake's and sat down. She looked at him and said, " We need to make a sob story something to do with family and crap like that. we need to sound like we are our family's life support. And we need to up our game cause Marcus and April look so convincing. While all we are doing is calling each other pet names." Verene then looked away and looked at the window. "We should head down there into the reporters and give them a show. It will be plaster all over the Capitol." Verene then headed to the door. "Ready to put on an amazing show my love!" Verene says with a twinkle in her eye
"you bet, babe!" he took her hand and closed the door behind him. while the elevator was going down he pulled Verene close to him wrapping his arms around her in a hug and kissing the top of her head.
"Keep it up cause we are going to be surrounded by reporters." She then kissed him deep right when the door open and a crowd of cameras surrounded them. She the whispered into his ear, "Get ready for your interview." They both headed to the dining hall.
he laughed into the kiss and pulled away with a gaint smile. he pick Verence up bridal style and started walking out of the elevator like he was carrying his bride over the threshold of their new house. "oh I'm ready. Are you?"
"Wow Romeo how long did you wait for doing this to me." She laugh which brought attention from the public.
"figure in front of the reporters is the best." the reporters kept yelling questions at them but he only responded to one. the reporter asked how he was feeling about being a tribute. he stopped in front of that reporter and said. " i had already been planning on staying all i could but when V was drawn there was no chance i was letting her go with out me" he looked at Verene the whole time trying to sell it a bit harder
"I love you sweatheart." She wrapped her arms around him and kissed him. She knew they were selling it.
"And you are my world Blake Swan." She kissed him. Then she felt a small tap on her leg. She turned away from Blake and saw there was a girl. She knelt down to be eye level and smiled. "Why hello there. What's your name?" She asked. The girl then said, "Violet!" "Well hello Violet what may I do for you?" Verene looked at her. "I just wanted to say hi. My parents are betting on you to win and I been wanting to see you. You are so pretty." She says. "Oh sweaty you are so pretty too! And thank you that is huge." Verene then stood up and took blake's hand and they headed to the dining hall.
"That was adorable," blake said leaning down to Verene's ear. He opened the door to the dinning hall and released a breath quietly "good job. you were perfect out there."
"WHAT IS HAPPENING BLAKE!!" Verene yelled when they entered. "We had a plan and it was to be engaged not married for god sake." Verene was angry, very angry as she stormed into her room. Mumbling under her breathe what to do next.
Blake didn't hesitate to follow her in but he stayed very calm "It would look like we were just coping with Marcus and April. being engaged can mean shit in this situation so going further and saying we did it is something they cant." He never yelled, never raised his voice trying to calm Verene down
"Ugh, well it will all do something in the the endgame." Verene said then looking at Blake. "You know what you need to do right. You need to get both of us now rings without any suspicions." She then went and got a book she read last night. But her mind was too filled with plan b, plan c, and so many plans. So instead of reading she went out of her room and went to the window instead. She like seeing nature from the window. It reminded her of her sister her kind loving sister. "I will win this for you." She whispered under her breathe.
"of course, I will." He walked out and tried to think where he could subtly get rings. Celeb... he should have connections. He watched Verene leave her room and followed her out but went to his room to give her some space. He left his door open so Verene could come in if she wanted to but he also knew that everyone needs space
Caleb came into the room where Verene was. " You foolish girl do you know what mess this is. You and Blake Married that is absurd!"
Blake heard Caleb walk in and start yelling at Verene and immediately got mad. he stormed out of his room and started yelling at Caleb himself "Why are you yelling at her? She had no idea about that. It was all me. I sprung that on everyone" He was pissed at Celeb
"Well then tell me ring leader why when I came out of a meeting did reporters sprung on me and asked about my tributes marriage surprise. Tell me what driven you to do such a thing." Caleb said.
"Because D4 had just gotten 'engaged'" He put engaged in quotes not believing that they were "And we planned to have me spontaneously propose then but then D4 did and we had to be above them."
"So then Mr. and Mrs. Swan where are the rings huh. You can't get rings without being notice. Heck the whole capital knows about you two marriage now." Caleb said getting really mad at Blake.
"I was hoping you could help with that. You've got to have connections. Even if you can't get any here is there any way to get something from other districts..." he knew his family had a set of rings set aside for him and if he could get them...
"Fine I will make a call to my sister who can make you rings by tomorrow." Caleb left the suite to go back to his. "I hate him." Said Verene.
"I'm guessing you hate us both right now," Blake said glumly "Have I said I'm sorry? Cause I am. But I couldn't think of anything else"
"I forgive you it's fine. I was just overreacting so I guess I also should apologies." Verene said sitting down at a couch.
"I still shouldn't springed that on you. It wasn't fair nor what we planned" He sat at the other end of the couch curling his legs underneath himself
