Author's Note: So, this is my newest story and my first story about Hunger Games. I had this idea after I realized that I only had Harry Potter stories. So, enjoy and favorite!
Disclaimer: I don't own Hunger Games. I own this plot, but that's it. The rest belongs to the magnificent Suzanne Collins.
Chapter 1:
Katniss opened her eyes to see the light streaming in through the window in her bedroom. Well, her and Peeta's bedroom, that is. She sat up on her elbows and looked around. The covers were neatly made around her, but Peeta was nowhere to be found. She sighed and threw the covers off of her, only to get up and put them back nicely. She grabbed her favorite sweater and walked drowsily down the stairs, where she found Peeta sitting quietly at the kitchen table with breakfast and a newspaper.
"Hey, Katniss," Peeta said, looking up. Katniss smiled and walked over to Peeta.
"I was wondering where you were!" Katniss said before kissing Peeta quickly. She stood up and walked into the kitchen to make herself some eggs when Peeta turned to look at her.
"Oh, you can't tease me like that!" Peeta said.
"I didn't tease you last night!" Katniss said, winking. Peeta smirked and went back to his breakfast.
"So," Katniss said after minutes of silence. "I have to go today and try on wedding dresses. I called my mom, but after she moved to district 3 she hasn't really been in contact. She said she would come, but we'll see. I invited Johanna and Annie too." Peeta nodded. Annie and Johanna had been coming by a lot more now and he was glad Katniss had some more friends. After losing Gale and Prim, Katniss had been pretty reliant on Peeta for company. Not that he minded. The only problem is that he can't always be there.
"That all sounds good to me!" Peeta said. "Well, I have to get going to the bakery. We have a big cake order going out tomorrow and I don't think that Penelope or Rayne have gotten very far on it. See you later." Peeta went to go get his jacket, and then yelled, "Oh, if you need anything like helping picking something out or anything, just call the bakery. I'll send Penny or Rayne down to help." Then, Peeta left. Katniss sighed and went upstairs to take a shower and get ready.
Katniss sighed. It felt good to have the hot water running all over her. She washed herself all over and shampooed her hair before shoving her head under the water. She was sure that there were wrinkles underneath her eyes and she wanted them to be gone. After finishing in the shower, she got out and stepped into the body dryer that came with the house. There were definitely perks to living in the victor's village. After 5 minutes, she was completely dry and stepped out into her bedroom. The blinds were no closed, but the light was still streaming in. She walked over to her closet and found a sweat shirt and jeans to put on. Then, she put on her favorite hunting boots and went into the bathroom to French braid her hair and put on a little make-up. On her way downstairs, she glanced at the clock to see that she had 2 hours before her appointment. She smiled and went to the closet to pull out her favorite bow and arrow set and her old game bag. She locked all the doors and went out the basement door that had a direct route to the woods. Once inside the woods, she sighed and a huge smile spread across her face. She loved being in the woods. It relaxed her and lately, she could use a lot of relaxing. For weeks she had been feeling like something was missing from her life. She didn't know what it was, but when she entered the woods, it all went away. She breathed in the cold winter air and set off to the depths of the woods to find a nice deer or a rabbit or two. Then, just when she was losing hope in finding anything, she saw a huge deer sniffing the forest floor just feet in front of her. She smiled and shot the arrow she had kept loaded for so long. The arrow hit the deer right in the eye. That was he signature spot. Katniss smiled and hit the deer again, this time in the heart and then ran over to get the deer and her arrows.
After hauling the deer back to her and Peeta's house, Katniss put it in the basement and went to go get ready for her appointment. She had been gone longer than expected and hoped she wouldn't be late. After changing her shoes and re-doing her hair, she was ready to go and practically bolted out the door to go to her appointment.
