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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3NbqNKgbu

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. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3CWtjLU4Q

"Jordan what are you doing?!?!" I asked worriedly.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFATGKVjnEZ

"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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17Ogi2nSvS

"That was.." I said.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0F3QOdZcK

"Amazing," we said together and started laughing. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXZV4i6Ol8

"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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtOWpB6vJq
809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxELFJqQqJT
"How about yes," I said smiling. All he did was smile back at me and pick me up and spin me around. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIpt4gk7Ik

"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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIBRBidz4L

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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6W3Ampv6p

"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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnAYvAJXMy

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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oH4NT12UD

"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 name809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Qh8xc6epq

"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. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhTr8InsPO

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?809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXSIXy02vp
