Quick note for you all:
This is my first FanFic, so please be easy. I know this chapter is a little slow, but I promise it will get better!(: I suck at summaries by the way, so please don't mind that. I hope you all enjoy! (:
DISCLAIMER: I am not Suzanne Collins ; therefore I do not own the Hunger Games or any of it's amazing characters. (:
"Katniss! Wake up; we're going to be late for our first day!" Prim said as she jumped up and down on my bed.
"Huh-wha-?" I said as I opened my eyes.
"We're going to be late! Mom has breakfast ready downstairs, you need to get changed! I laid some clothes out for you. You're welcome," she said as she walked out of my room.
Slowly, I got up out of my bed.
I looked over at the rocking chair in my room and saw the outfit that Prim had laid out for me. It was a pair of jean shorts that ended mid-thigh and had rips in them, and a dark green, plain t-shirt.
I put on my clothes, brush my teeth, washed my face, and then pulled my hair back into a loose braid that fell over my shoulder.
Today is my first day at a new school here in District 12. I used to live here, but then I moved to District 2 for a job that my father was offered. But after 10 years of living there, he was killed in a tragic car accident, and I still can't talk about it to this day. Finally, after about 2 more years, we finally decided to move back here because being in Two just reminded us all of him, and we didn't need that sadness.
I walked downstairs and joined my mother and sister at the table.
"Are you excited for today, Katniss?" my mother asked me as I ate some toast.
"I mean, I guess. I don't really see what there is to be excited about. No one is going to like me."
"Katniss, honey, don't say that! You are a lovely girl. You have to be more confident in who you are. They're going to love you!"
"Yeah, whatever…" I mumbled.
"Well you girls better get going. You have to walk there, and it's already 7," my mother said.
As we were standing up she then said, "Oh and Katniss… Make sure you pick Prim up at the end of the day! You two can walk home together too."
"Okay," I simply said as she came to hug us both.
"Have fun today girls."
Prim and I walked out the front door and started heading down the street.
"I'm so excited Katniss! I'm going to get to meet so many new people! And so are you, that is if you talk to people! Katniss, please try and be social here. It's a new start. I hate seeing you alone all the time, it makes me worry," she said as she turned to me and frowned a little bit.
"I will little duck, just for you."
"Thanks Katniss. They're going to love you!" she smiled as we walked up to the front of her school.
I kissed the top of her head, and then said goodbye as I started heading towards the High School.
I started get more and more nervous and I got closer, but I really didn't have anything to worry about. I barely even talked, so I would go through the whole school year without being noticed, and that would keep me out of drama and everything else. But I promised Prim I would try to make friends.
I sighed as I walked up the path to the entrance and reached to pull the door open, the moment I have been dreading for weeks.
This is going to be a long day.
Well, there you are! Chapter 1. I know it was a bit slow, but as I said before, I pinky promise that it will get better! (:
Please review! It would mean the world to me.
Thanks for readingg (: x
