hey so here is the first chapter i hope you like this Disclaimer: i own nothing in this story!

"KATNISS WAKE UP WERE GONNA BE LATE TO SCHOOL" my sister, Prim yells from downstairs.I groan as i get up i really don't want to go to school today or any day for that matter i would rather spend time with dad out hunting and then come home so he can help me with my singing, but no i have to go to school.I get up and put on a green t-shirt and jeans and braid my hair in its signature braid. "finally" prim says as i reach the bottom of the stairs "well sorry,are you ready little duck?" i ask "yes I've been ready for like forever" she says "k just a minute i need breakfast" i get some toast from mom and tell her and dad bye and we leave.

The first thing i notice is the 'SOLD' sign on the neighbor's lawn i guess they sold the house finally"hey, Katniss who do you think lives there now?" Prim asked i shrugged "don't know but if i know mom shes gonna have them over for dinner soon" i said "yeah"Prim says back.

I drop prim off at her class and make my way to my friends "hey Katniss" i hear one of my friends, Madge say "hey Madge"i say "hey did you hear that they're having a singing contest soon maybe you should sign up"she says "you know i cant and yeah i heard its soon but its a duet thing and i would have to sing with a guy and i don't think the guys can sing and so if i do it which im saying im not who would i sing with?" i say "i don't know that's the fun part just will you try and if the person it is not the person you want to sing with you can quit before the actual contest just say you'll try" she pleads "if i say yes will you leave me alone"i say and she nods "fine" i groan and walk into the school.

I walk to my first class which is english and i sit in the back cause none of my friends are in this the bell rings and as the teacher is about to close the door a blond guy comes in "oh your late mister" "sorry" he mumbles "yes now go take a seat" she says oh great i think there's only one spot left and its next to me. he sits down and turns towards me "hi um i'm Peeta, Peeta Mellark I'm new here" he said holding out his hand "Katniss Everdeen" i say and give him a small smile and he gives it back.

At the end of class i get up and leave until i hear someone call my name "wait, Katniss"what a surprise its Peeta "yeah" i say when he reaches me i now realize his ashy blond hair is almost covering his amazing blue eyes and he has abs poking out of his blue t-shirt that goes with his eyes wait. did i just say 'amazing' blue eyes? and why am i looking at his body? "i was just wondering if, um you would, uh show me where the science room is?"he stutters "here let me see your schedule" i say he does as i say and takes a folded up paper from his back pocket and hands it to me. i look at his schedule and he has every class with me how is that possible? "well it kinda looks like we have every class together so i guess ill just be your guide i mean if you want" i say handing him his schedule "thanks but you don't have to do it if you don't want to" "no its fine just follow me" i say smiling, he smiles back and i feel my face heat up why am i acting like this i just met him!

This is what i do all day ill go to class and Peeta will follow me and ill sit with my friends but during lunch of course Madge knew about him "Hey Katniss have you met the new kid his name is Peeta Mellark and he just moved here isn't that cool he moved from district 1" but before i can speak Annie comes over "i met him i thinks he's kind and sweet" She says "look here he comes" clove says who has been quiet this whole conversation. sure enough Peeta is coming over "hi girls do you mind if i sit with you today" he says flashing his amazing smile oh my gosh somethings wrong with my head then again it is amazing what am i talking about no it's not shut up brain "hey Katniss"Peeta says and sits down by me oh great here comes the teasing from them later i think"hey Peeta"the next thing i know the guys are coming over "hey catnip" i hear Gale say "hey Gale" i say as he sits next to Madge who automatically turns red and i fight not to smile how red she's getting.I look over with Annie who is already sucking faces with Finnick and Cato who is sitting next to clove. i now realize that i am a third wheel even though Madge and Gale are not dating they should that just means Peeta and me are the only loners i guess or you could be dating him no i tell myself if anything he's a friend or not even that that's why you get to know him but i don't even have to do that cause Peeta leans closer to me and speaks "are they..."he points to Cato and clove "and them.." he points to Finnick and Annie still making out "and them..." he says pointing to Madge and gale whispering in my ear "um those two certainly are.. that's Finnick and Annie" i say pointing to Annie and Finnick STILL making out "they are...and that's Cato and clove" i say pointing to Cato and clove and she is now laughing at what Cato said in her ear "and they are not but i think they would look cute together that's Gale and Madge and i can just tell they like each other by the way Madges face got red when he sat down and how his eyes just.. like.. light up when she's near him" i say back to him "how long have you dealt with this"he says quietly using hand gestures to represent everyone at the table "at least a year or so" i say, he laughs quietly man his laugh is perfect what are you saying its just like any other laugh no it's not its his laugh i hate you brain just shut up no i will never shut up "hey Katniss?" Peeta says as i look st him his eyes are filled with worry "yeah" "sorry you were..just.. like staring of into space for like 5 minutes" he says "oh sorry ill try not to do it anymore" see what you did you got me in trouble were the same person,Katniss "Katniss you're doing it again" Peeta says bringing me from my thoughts "again im sorry" i say blushing "its ok" he says smiling his amazing smile again and just when i'm about to argue with my self over thinking he has a 'amazing' smile the bell rings, i get up with Peeta still following me but not before standing in front of Annie and Finnick STILL making out and smacking both of them to break them up and i hear Peeta laugh but then cover it up with a cough and we start walking to our next class.
