SOFIA AND TOM'S MANAGERS DIDN'T LIKE THAT THEY RUSHED INTO FAKE RELATIONSHIPS. When they told them that it had to start with a friendship, they meant for them to post funny videos or photos together, go out for a walk together. To let the world know they were just friends "for now" as their managers said. Sofia was forced to deny the kiss between her and Tom, even though they thought it was better for the publicity.

Addison had sent an email to both her and Tom, with a schedule when they had to post or do something together outside filming the movie.

Sofia decided to act nice around Tom, for her own sake and the movies sake. She wanted this to be a good experience, something she'll remember for the rest of her life. She felt the tension on set this week. The chemistry that was supposed to be there, was gone. Tom was definitely surprised when Sofia didn't respond to some of his comments. It bothered him that she didn't take notice of him anymore. Maybe it's better to be a little nicer- he thought.

The tension was gone at set today. So filming today was gonna be a hell lot better than before. The scenes of today were, the one where Snow falls into the zoo cage with Lucy, and him bringing the food to her after he leaves the cage.

The set was actually outside in an old park with a big cage in the middle of it. The weather was sunny but the temperature felt like autumn, so the sun didn't do much for temperature change.

"Sofia and Tom, are you ready for the "fall" out of the truck into the cage?" Francis asked the actors. They both didn't know what to expect, the two were locked with a rope around their waist, and there was a ladder. "Sofia, when you fall grab his hand okay?" She nodded.

"Action!"

The doors of the fake truck opened behind them, and people in the back rolled out of the truck into the cage. Tom held tight to something, while Sofia was screaming, with a white rose in her hand. He let go after a couple seconds letting the two go down as smooth as possible. Sofia already had her arm around his waist, but grabbed his hand midway going down. They rolled down the "Stones" and fell down next to each other.

"Cut! Let's go to the next scene please."

Everyone got up when action was called again. They first filmed lucky flickerman's part, and then changed the angle to Tom. His blonde hair was messy and he looked confused. Sofia was surprised his wig was still on after that slide. She was happy her own wig was still on.

"Own it." I grabbed Tom tightly by his arm and looked up to him.

"Lucy Gray Baird, may I introduce you to my neighbours?" He asked her, Sofia gave him a nod.  Tom grabbed the rose and snapped the end off, but not succeeding, making Sofia laugh.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." She giggled to herself, she didn't meant to laugh, but the rose looked funny when he snapped it in half.

"This is seriously hard Sofia." He held the broken rose up to our faces, making Sofia laugh even harder. The corners of his mouth turned up.

"Let's do that part again! And cut!"

Tom snapped the rose in half again, this time perfectly. It felt kind of magical holding that eye contact for so long. A week ago they both would have hated it, but they were professionals, they could keep their act up. The crew has to believe that they are friends. Tom put the rose behind Sofia's ear. Tom offered his hand to Sofia, she took his hand and they walked up to Lucky flickerman.

"Who are you sir, why are you in the caging?" He asked Tom confused. But Tom's eye contact wasn't focused on the interviewer, it was on two little children.

"Hi. How do you do?" He asked the children "My name is Coriolanus Snow... and this is my tribute Lucy Gray Baird from district twelve."

"Hi there." Sofia nailed her southern accent "What's your name?" She asked them. The children introduced themselves. "Nice to meet you, is this your sister?"

"That's Venus, she's only four." The boy says.

"Well I think four is a very smart age to be." Sofia lowered herself to the height of the child.

"Where did you find that snake?" The girls asks.

"He found me, must have been a music lover, my singing calms them right down."

"Can I touch your dress." The little girl asks with a beaming smile. Sofia adored this little girl.

"Of course, I like your dress too."

The scene ends with Lucy asking who lucky is, and her introducing herself to him. Lucy introduces Snow then to the interviewer. Sofia's arm wrapped around his arm until he got away.

"Get us some food please, we haven't eaten since the reaping." Sofia asked him desperately while he was taken away.

THEIR DAY WAS ALREADY EXHAUSTING AFTER BEING ON SET ALL DAY. But the schedule from the two actors told them they weren't free yet. After removing the makeup, wig and move clothing, they changed into their own casual clothing, and took an uber to a restaurant together. Their managers insisted that they'd make content together. The restaurant wasn't crowded, but there were enough people to photograph the two.

"I can't believe we have to do this?" Tom sighed looking at the menu. He clearly hated the idea of this fake relationship. Sofia didn't think he was wrong, but she wanted this movie to succeed so bad, and her manager told her that this was gonna help. So she did as her manager knew best.

"You can keep saying it, but it doesn't change the situation Tom." Sofia hovered over the menu, nothing on the menu looked good to her. Her appetite wasn't that large, so she ordered some fries and a soda. Tom didn't have much of an appetite either, so he ordered the same as Sofia.

"I shouldn't have signed that contract." He muttered to himself. "Why did you even sign this contract?" His voice was agitated.

"Addison, told me this was gonna be good for the movie. So that people wanna watch not only because of the franchise, but also about us." Sofia explained to Tom, he didn't believe it.

"Don't you believe in yourself for it to have success without having this stupid stunt? Do you think low of yourself Sofia?"

"No I don't th- "

"Because you're a great actress, we don't need this stunt." Tom was right. They didn't need this stunt for the movie to succes. People have been waiting years for another Hunger Games movie. But Sofia was curious how this pr stunt would evolve. Would this create a friendship between the two?

"Let's do everything the opposite of what our managers want, forget that contract. We do this our way." Tom suggests.

"Deal."
