weeks go by and we seem to have found a routine ,everyone seems to be at peace and are actually starting to enjoy being here but sam is worried he has been sending simon and wolf out more and more and has even got me going on patrol from time to time ,hes worried about what the president is planning ,so far we have seen soldiers but they only come into the forest so far and we cant understand why they haven't come in farther ,Wolf thinks the President has just let us go but Sam says "the President isn't going to let his best soldiers go free if anything he would want to execute us just to show he cant be beat ", and if im honest im with Sam he seems to be talking sense ,Wolf on the other hand has become careless he seems more interested in "having a laugh" as he keeps saying , he's always trying to get me fooling around and to play silly games ,i find im going out hunting more and more and always seem to find myself back at the lake looking up at petas window then when its too dark to see i head back to camp only to find wolf trying to get a very uncomfortable Ellie to fool around .
After another morning of listening to Danlow prattle on about snakes and watching Wolf try to convince us girls to all play hide and seek in the trees, sam huffs a command to Simon and they both head out for patrol and i get up to go hunting, i have a headache and i want to murder someone either Wolf or Danlow will do, so i grab my stuff and start to leave "hey where are you going baby girl?" "don't call me that "i snap at Wolf "ok ok but i thought we were going to play hide and seek, we can hide together if you want", i shake my head "no you play,im going hunting" "ok ill come with you then "he says " no wolf, i just want to be alone " i snap before stomping off, leaving wolf watching after me.
i set traps and again find myself heading back to the lake like i usually do, iv found a perfect rock that's hidden by trees which means i can sit a look up at Blake's room and think about him without being seen, i come here most days just to be alone with my thoughts, i find i mostly think about Blake while im here i think about the time in the lift, our shopping trip and the most perfect picnic iv ever had and the way he kissed and held me, its while im having these thoughts that i look up and there on his balcony is Blake himself and i swear he is looking right at me, but that's impossible how would he know im here surly he cant see me but he's staring right at me and i cant look away we just continue to stare until the light starts to fade.
After getting my kills i head back to camp to see Wolf standing watching me with his hands on his hips i guess he's mad because i was short with him this morning so as i head towards him i decide to apologize but before i can say anything he spits "so where have you been ?" "err hunting, i told you that this morning" and i hold up the rabbits' iv caught to emphasise the point "oh yeah and i suppose you went to the lake to moon over lover boy too " i just shake my he and go to walk away,im really not in the mood to fight but then he grabs my arm "well weren't you? i try to shake him off, everyone's looking at us so mow im embarrassed so i shove him so hard he slips and falls, i glare down at him and he must realize his mistake because he says "Lissa im sor" "get stuffed Wolf " i say and storm to my tent,im fuming he dares lay a hand on me, as i enter my tent i go to fling myself on my little camp bed but the velvet little box on my pillow stops me in my tracks.
