Hi, this is my 3rd fanfiction story. I love all of the stories with the characters in 21st century high school. So I've decided to do that, but give it a twist. Trust me, you may have questions about it, but it will all be answered in later chapters.

"Ok," said Mrs. Smith, "your homework is workbook pages 37 and 38. That's due tomorrow." The bell rang as I grabbed my books and rushed out off to lunch. On the way I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see my best friend Gale Williams smiling next to me.

"Hey Catnip," he said.

"Hey Gale," I responded. Gale was two years older than me, but still my best friend. "You going to lunch now?" I asked him.

"No," he replied, "my lunch is 6th period remember?" I nodded and grabbed my lunch from my locker. I didn't have many pictures in it. There was one with me and Gale hunting together, one of the time I went to Disney, and one of my parents. My parents were nice people. My mother was a kindergarten teacher and my dad owned a sporting equipment store. That was probably the reason why I was kind of a tomboy. I didn't really resemble any of my parents to much, but genetics can be weird like that. I didn't have any siblings. Sometimes I did wish I had a little brother or sister to play with, but being an only child was fine too.

As I sit down at my lunch table, I saw my friends Madge and Foxface already there. Foxface's real name is Fay, but I had given her that nickname a few years back, and it kind of stuck. Plus it worked with her red hair and sly personality. Madge lives in a poor family with her parents and super annoying older brother. Foxface lives in an orphanage. Both are sophomores like me at Plainview High. Aka probably the tiniest public high school in West Virginia.

"So," said Madge, "we have something very important to discuss Katniss Green."

"What, something even more important than your latest scheme to get One Direction concert tickets?" I asked sarcastically. Madge has a bit of a 1D obsession. She always says that Harry is the hottest, but I personally like Niall and Zayn best. You can't make me choose between the adorable blonde and the cool dark haired guy. It's just too hard. Fay's favorite is Louis.

"No," said Madge, "something else. Foxface and I were going to get a big group to go to the movies Friday night. We wanted you to come with."

"Ok," I agreed, "who else is coming?"

"Well, right now just us three," said Foxface. "But we were hoping you could ask Gale and anyone else who wanted to come."

"Sure," I said, "what movie are we seeing?"

"Not to sure yet," said Madge. "I was thinking we could all decide once we get there." I told her that it sounded great and then went back to eating my lunch and finishing my late History homework. There was only a week or so left in March, which ment that 3rd semester report cards would be out soon. Madge read her gossip magazine and Foxface took pictures. She was a photographer for the school newspaper.

When lunch ended, I headed of to math class. However, once I was all settled down in my seat, my books were nocked off of my desk. I heard behind me the laughing of the careers. The careers were the bullies, the mean kids, and the popular group, all rolled up into four vicious teens.

First there was Marvel Stray. He was the class clown that every teacher hated. He would play pranks, call kids names, and just be a total jerk in general.

Then there was Glimmer Angels, the popular blonde hotty that most of the boys were in love with. However, she was a bit of an airhead at times. Even though she's dating Marvel, she flirts with basically every cute guy in our grade and has probably kissed most of them.

Then we have the vicious Clove Leena. She could find some twisted way to kill anybody with anything. She has four older brothers, so she's as tough as nails. Rumor has it that she's got a knife collection at home and she's an expert at throwing them.

And last and definitely least, there's Cato Amist. He's the star of the football team and is a classic 6'2 blonde jock. He's easily the most popular guy in the school, but also the meanest. He's one of those guys who can pick a fight with anyone. Cato was the one who came up with the name "the careers". Something he remembers from a while ago I guess. He and Clove have this on again off again romance. I think they're together now, but you can never be too sure about them.

I reached down to pick up my books, but when I went to grab my calculator, I felt another hand touch mine. I looked up to see a boy with crystal blue eyes and wavy blonde hair. He gave me a smile and handed me my calculator.

"Thanks," I said. "Peeta, right?" He nodded,

"And you're Katniss." I know our school is small and everything, but I'm surprised that Peeta Anderson knew my name. He was on the football team with Cato, but he doesn't hang out with those guys much. All I really know about him are his extremely wealthy parents. I think that they own this giant country club. He helped me get the rest of my books and then sat down in the seat next to mine.

"Don't worry about them. Those guys can be real jerks sometimes," said Peeta.

"I know right," I said. "The only "career" they're ever going to get, is first class idiot." He laughed.

"Then again," said Peeta, "I could see them working as fry cooks at McDonalds."

"Glimmer will eventually run out of guys to date and die alone, Marvel will probably end up in prison, and Clove and Cato will break up so many times, that it'll drive them crazy and they'll shoot each other."

"Hallelujah!" said Peeta and we both started cracking up. Then he calmed down and said, "You're really cool Katniss. We should hang out sometime." Wait, did Peeta Anderson just ask me out? I said the first thing that popped into my head.

"Well, a few other friends and I are going to the movies on Friday. If you want you can come." Peeta's face lit up.

"I would love to!"

"Cool," I responded, "I'll text you later. Wait what's your number?" He scribbled his number down on a piece of paper and I wrote down mine. We exchanged numbers just as class was about to start. Did I just arrange a date with Peeta? No, you're going with a group. It's just going to be like any other movie.

That's what you think Katniss. Please tell em what you think and if I should continue. I probably will cause I have some great ideas for the story. The next chapter will not be the movie, but you'll get to see some of Peeta's life. Please Favorite, Follow, and Review, as well as check out some of my other stories. Also, does anyone know any movies that were in theater the same time as The Hunger Games? Love you and your reviews.
