A/N A new story for you guys! Let me know what you think and if I should continue. It's a little shorter but if you want me to continue, chapters will be longer.

Oh and when they are singing Katniss' part is in normal writing, Peeta's in italics and both of them in bold :)

Disclaimer: I do not own The Hunger Games or any unoriginal content used.


Chapter 1: Audition

Katniss POV

I laugh hysterically as Peeta and I recall memories of our youth. He has blonde hair and blue eyes and a smile to die for. He is my best friend and I love him with all my heart.


Present Day

I wait anxiously back stage as Cinna, my stylist, makes the final adjustments to my hair and make-up before turning to Peeta beside me and doing the same. I've done these stupid interviews for years now but there's something about this one in particular. Caesar Flickerman is doing a three-hour special on Peeta and I due to it being our 10th anniversary of winning the musical talent show that he hosts and we were somewhat memorable contestants, being the first duet act to win the show. The music to the opening credits starts in the background and a minute later I'm lead onto the stage with Peeta holding tightly onto my hand. We greet Caesar, and he shakes Peeta's hand and kisses my cheeks before sitting down on the comfortable red sofa. Caesar and Peeta start their usual banter and the audience responds well.

"Well, Katniss, Peeta, you've come a long way in the past 10 years," Caesar says.

"Yeah, I still sometimes wake up and think it's all been a brilliant dream!" Peeta replies.

"Let's talk about where your journey started - your audition..."


10 Years Ago

A man with a clipboard and headgear comes up to us and tells us to go through to another room. The three judges, Alma Coin, Coriolanus Snow and Seneca Crane look us up and down apprehensively and Peeta begins to speak.

"Hi, I'm Peeta Mellark and this is Katniss Everdeen and we'll be performing a duet," he tells them. Snow nods and Peeta picks up his guitar and begins to strum the opening chords.

Where she walks no flowers bloom,

He's the one I see right through.

She's the absinthe on my lips,

The splinter in my fingertips.

But who could do without you?

And who could do without you?

She's the sea I'm sinking in,

He's the ink under my skin.

Sometimes I can't tell where I am,

Where I leave off and he begins.

But who could do without you?

And who could do without you?

Oh, aren't we a pretty, pretty pair?

Yes we are.

All, all the king's horses and all his men,

Couldn't tear us apart.

Oooooooooh

Aaaaaaaaah

Oooooooooh.

Dancing with a ball and chain,

Through it all we still remain.

Butterflies around a flame,

Till ashes, ashes we fade away.

The room is silent until the noise of applause fills the air.


Thanks for reading! The song I used was Birds Of A Feather by The Civil Wars
