Distance

[Katniss]

"Of course!" Ember said. "I love weddings! I've been trying to plan mine and Ashton's but he is usually too busy to talk about it so I'm kind of on my own. But I don't really mind." She said with a shrug.


"Oh. Well congratulations Iggy!" Ella said with a forced smile. Luckily Iggy couldn't see the disappointment on her face. "It seems like me dying really affected how things turned out!"

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"It's nothing. Just come with me to get your eyes fixed! You can surprise your fiancé!" She said.

"I don't know..." He said.

"Just come to the office with me and at least talk to her." Ella said.

"Just try Iggy." Fang said. "You've lived long enough without your sight. It was stolen from you. You deserve to see."

"I guess. I will try." Iggy said.

Ella smiled and grabbed his arm before heading out.

[Chloe]

Aven laughed slightly and smiled at her. "Well I'd be happy to help you out Ember. If only to be a spring board to help you along. I know how Ash can be."

[Katniss]

She smiled slightly. "That would be great. He's a handful, but I love him."

Ella was walking Iggy down the street and they passed Ember and Aven.

"Was that Iggy?" Ember asked looking back.

[Chloe]

"It was," Aven said with a frown. "Who was that girl he was with? Ember? Would you mind if we went and said hi?"

[Katniss]

"I've never seen her before." Ember said. "And no I don't mind at all!"

Iggy and Ella kept walking. "So when did you get engaged?" Ella asked.

"A few months ago." Iggy said. "I've known Aven for a while now. She helped the flock out a lot. They all love her. Angel especially."

[Chloe]

Aven hurried after Iggy and placed a hand gently on his shoulder. "Iggy? I thought you were going to be with Fang all day."

[Katniss]

"Aven? Hi! I need to talk to you about something." Iggy said.

"Iggy I thought you weren't going to tell her?" Ella asked.

"I want to talk to Aven about it, Ella." He said.

"Fine." Ella said trying not to sound jealous.

Iggy pulled Aven aside to talk to her. Ember stayed over by Ella so they could talk alone.

"Aven, I was with fang but then Ella randomly showed up. She's an old friend of the flocks." He said.

[Chloe]

"Alright," she said carefully, keeping her finger's lightly on his wrist so he would know where she was. "What weren't you going to tell me?"

[Katniss]

He stayed facing her. "Ella's mom is a doctor. She claims that she has a way for me to get my sight back." He said. "I wanted to do it, but I wanted to know what you thought."

[Chloe]

"oh. Really?" she said frowning slightly before tilting her head to the side. "Well honestly Iggy, it's up to you. I love you either way."

[Katniss]

"Thanks Aven." He said. "I just don't know what to do. I've lived practically my whole life without sight. The thought of being able to see again is just crazy to me. I could see you and I could see our first child and watch them grow up. So many things could be different."

[Chloe]

"That's true," she said biting her lip slightly before reaching up and touching his face. "Go talk to her about it at least. I'll support you no matter what."

[Katniss]

He put his hand over hers. "I love you Aven." He kissed her quickly.

[Chloe]

She kissed him back and smiled. "I love you too. Don't be late to the rehearsal alright?"

[Katniss]

"I won't I promise." He said with a laugh. He listened for Ella and ember talking and walked back over to them. "Let's go give this a try." He said to Ella.

Ella nodded and started walking again. Iggy waved in ember and avens direction before walking with Ella.
