Chapter 1
When I wake up I realize it's the first day of school. I'm 15 years old and the kids of Katniss E. Mellark, the E standing for Everdeen, and Peeta Mellark. I get out of bed and get dressed. Then I do my hair when my mother yells "Ashlyn, hurry up! You're going to be late!" When I finish my hair I go downstairs. I hear in the hallway my dad whispering to my mom. He's telling her that it's going to be okay but I don't know what he means. I had recenty saw something in a book about them being in the Hunger Games but that's not what we are learning. We are learning about the 64th Hunger Games right now. I don't know what's so important about it though.
"Morning. I'm meeting Skylar. Bi, love you.
"Goodbye, have a great day!" Says dad.
I walk down the block to her house. "Hey Sky," I say.
"OMG, I love your outfit! You always have to look stunning don't you!"
"Haha, you look better than I do, come on or we are going to be late." I'm wearing my high waisted shorts with a white tank top, blue sweater, white sandals, and a white headband. When we walk up the steps we go to our homeroom we get our locks and decorate our lockers. The high school and middle school are combined so we will have these lockers till we graduate. "Where's your locker?" I ask Sky.
"By history, yours?"
"By the music room." "Are you kidding? Those are the best lockers in school! Lucky. I have to go hunt mine down, have fun decorating.
I walk to my locker and start to decorate the inside. I put up my organizer, mirror, dry erase board, and some colorful magnates. Then I grab my schedule and go to 1st period. "Morning students. This year we will be learning about exciting things! We will have fun at times when we do projects but we will work work work!" My teacher is way to perky but she's really nice. The rest of the day is pretty dull until I get to lunch.
"Hey Sky."
"Hey, how was your classes?"
"Fine, but bio is so boring. I wish I didn't have to take it."
"That's what you get for being good at it." I laugh. So far we haven't had any classes together. "Why is everyone whispering and staring at us?"
"Not at me, but at you. Rumor is, Cameron is going to ask you out."
"What? I thought he was dating Jewlz."
"He was but he dumped her because she found out she was cheating on him."
Why me? He has always hated me, or at least I though he has. Maybe he was just pretending, but then again, could it be true? I never really gave much thought into him because he was always mean but deep own inside, could he be sweet and sensitive and caring?
