A/N: Hey there everyone! I have been thinking about this idea for some time. This is one of those stories where The Hunger Games never happened and how Peeta and Katniss end up together without the games but I didn't steal anything Hope you like it, review :D
The Everdeen household was filled with people, mostly women. They all spoke and giggled and congratulated Violet Everdeen. The house hadn't been this blissful in ten years, since the death of Jonathan Everdeen. A wedding was taking place and it had the whole Seam in a jittery mood. Everyone was happy, well everyone except the eldest of the Everdeen girls.
Me, Katniss Everdeen.
I mean I am happy Prim is getting married, even though she is far too young for my taste. It's alright though, she's always known what she wants and Rory has turned into a wonderful young man. If that where it I'd be completely happy, but people are people and they never change. From the moment Prim got engaged all eyes were on me.
They all found it outrageous that my little sister was getting marries before I did. Almost everyone else my age got married after their last Reaping, even reserved Peeta Mellark. I am among the few who has remained solitary, and now I stand out like a sore thumb in this wedding.
Just then my mom knocks on my room lightly.
"Katniss are you ready yet?" she asks happily. I open the door and she beams at me, which makes me sick to the core.
She hasn't smiled like this in ten years. "I'm ready" I mumble.
"Honey, you look gorgeous" she says. I nod and walk out, the ceremony will start soon.
I'm wearing a knee length blue dress that hugs my waist and then falls loosely and black flats. It's the dress Prim choose for her bridesmaids. She wanted her eyes to stand out which of course they will with all the hints of blue. Me on the other side, I look dull with my grey eyes and dark hair. I see her then, she's standing at the door in a white, puffy dress. Her hair is up in a fancy bun and she's wearing some makeup. Her eyes shine when she spots me.
I try to hide my face behind my hair, I hate crying in public. Of course she comes to me.
"Katniss? Is something wrong?" she asks, concern spilling all over her voice. I look up and smile.
I pull her into my arms and hold her there without saying anything for a while.
"I'm sorry Prim, It's just I'm going to miss you. Remember you'll always be my baby sister" I finish whipping my tears and laughing. She laughs with me.
"Katniss, I am so thankful, if it weren't for you I'd never made it this far or had such a pretty wedding. I can't wait till you get married" she says on the verge of tears.
My smile fades, "I'm not getting married Prim".
She doesn't back down thought, she takes my hands and pushes me to our couch, we sit together.
"Katniss, I know how you feel about love but I want you to try. You're 21, how long before the guy you want leaves or moves on?" she says.
"I don't like anyone" I whisper.
"And I'm not saying you should marry someone who you don't love, but at least promise me that if you find the one you won't push him away" she stares at me with her pretty blue eyes.
"When did you get so big?" I sigh. She laughs and shakes her head, and then she looks at me. I know what she wants.
"I promise" I sigh.
Well what do you guys think? This is barely the beginning and I have a plan for Peeta don't worry, this story is PeetaXKatniss
