Long-Lost Friend
Chapter one
"Mother! I'm going to Peeta's for some food!" Katniss yelled up the stairs. She waited, when she heard the muffled answer she quickly shuffled outside. It was a cold winter day in mid-December, when Katniss breathed out she could see her breath turn white.
When she walked the 9.7 yards to Peeta's house she could practically smell the muffins.
"Peeta!" She yelled, taking off her boots, "Do you have some muffins for me?"
Peeta chucked, "If I didn't, would I have called you over with the sweet aroma of muffins?"
She was just about to enter the kitchen and indulge herself in nice, warm muffins, when she heard the door bell ring. She turned around.
"Peeta, were you expecting someone?"
Peeta poked his head out of the kitchen
"No," he wiped his hands on his apron. "Can you check who they are for me? The muffins might burn"
"Yeah," Katniss went to the door and peeped through the peephole.
Katniss saw a girl about her age, with blonde short hair, mostly hidden behind her jacket.
Next to her was a tall, muscular boy, at least 3 years older than the girl. He had army cut brown hair, and a really muscular body.
Katniss could've stared at it all day, until the blonde girl knocked again impatiently and muttered "I'm freezing out here... Can't they hurry up?". Katniss quickly opened the door, before remembering the were strangers, it might have been mean to slam the door, so she kept it wide open.
"Hello, who are you?" Katniss asked.
The blonde muttered some words under her breath about the cold and the inhospitality, and something about a faction?
She quickly whipped out a paper and held it out in front of her so Katniss could see it. "My mother said to meet someone named," she looked at the paper again. "Peeta? Pet-a? Pit-a?" She's shook her head, thinking that it didn't sound right. "Anyway, do you know him?"
