I was finishing outing my hair in a side braid when Jordan walked in. The dreaded reaping day had come and I was not happy about it.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcrKeF4j6n

We headed out the door and walked in silence towards the town hall. We were almost there when Jordan stopped me and dragged me into an abandoned alley way. 869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuN35ODXDv

"Jordan what are you doing?!?!" I asked worriedly.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdeba28qNr

"This," he said and grabbed me by the shoulders and kissed me square on the lips. At first I was frozen, but then I melted into the kiss. OMG I'm kissing the guy I like. We stayed like that for a little bit, until we had to get some air. Stupid air.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlekyIDJwPS

"That was.." I said.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJyxdP9Nk4

"Amazing," we said together and started laughing. 869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKu7EYJhXo

"Lilac, I've had a crush on you for a couple years now, and I am finally working up the courage to ask you out. So please say yes," he said.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElyVLSIN9j
869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYl5pO5yc7
"How about yes," I said smiling. All he did was smile back at me and pick me up and spin me around. 869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsJE4YuQTH

"Thank god you said yes. In my head mind I was imagining you laughing in my face," he said. All I did was smile and say, "As much as I'd love to stay here and talk with you, we have to go to the reaping before peacekeepers find us and drag us them themselves." All he does is nod and we walk in a comfortable silence.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD2Fl3vOXg

After I'm checked in I go stand in my age group area. I was one of the last people to head in, so as soon as I'm done I hear the capitols fanfare. I really hope this goes by fast and neither me nor Jennifer are reaped. I look at the stage and see Anika, the person who's our districts. I'm really nervous since two GIRLS are gonna be reaped this year. Yes, they announced it yesterday and now I am terrified. We all watch the video they show every year of District 13 and how the Hunger Games were started, blah, blah, blah. Like anyone cares about this stuff. Then Anika talks.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0HutZGLa9

"Welcome everyone to the beginning of the 71st Annual Hunger Games," she says, but no one cheers. Why would they. It's just a sick form of entertainment for her people. Anika actually seems really nice. A few people from our district have won many years ago, but no one has won in the past 10 years from our district. So our odds are pretty slim.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2iB4zt4v0

She goes over to the bowl with all our names in it and sticks her hand in. She digs through the bowl and finally picks out a name. She walks over the microphone and says the name.869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgZMyBaHmP

"Our first tribute is none other than Maisie Spencer (@fangirl-musician)" A girl my age with long-ish dirty blond hair walks up to the stage and stands next to Anika. Anika then walks over to the bowl again and picks out another name869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUFQtKh0si

"Lilac Hadden" she said and I froze. What this can't be happening. Everyone realizes that its me and makes path to the stage. I slowly make my way there and I can see everyones eyes on me. I look back at Jennifer and see that she's about to cry. I continue walking to the stage and stand next to Anika. 869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6ty92lOrd

I look at into the sea of people and I see my parents and Jane crying. I keep on trying to find Jordan, but I can't see him anywhere. What? Where is he?869Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbZUhqqCUU
