Following My dreams Chapter 2: The Results, a hunger games fanfic

PREVIOUSLY ON FOLLOWIGN MY DREAMS

Oh, this is just a dream
Just a dream
Yeah, Yeah"

We walk off of stage and are told that we are going to be showed at the end with all of the other competitors. We stand around and are goofing off listening to the rest of the performances until we are needed again. Soon we are done and Marvel and I are on the couch watching our performances critiquing our own voices. It is almost one in the morning when I finally decide to go to bed. Marvel leads me to my door and right before I am about to go inside he grabs the side of my face and smashes his lips to mine.

I don't know what to do or how to react, but I do know that this is the best feeling I have ever felt. This moment right here is what I never thought I would experience. So I do the only thing I can think of and I put my arms around his neck and kiss him back. Only if Madge could see me now. When Marvel pulls back I pout and this causes him to chuckle.

"I'll see you tomorrow Kat." And without saying anything else he walks down the hall and into his own room.

"Katniss wake up we have to get ready the results are tonight." I smile as his voice once again wakes me up, but along with the smile come nerves. What are we now that he kissed me? How do I act? Do I bring it up or do I let him? I really wish I had a friend here to help me sort my thoughts. I know how I feel but I don't know how to act on those feelings. So I decide tomorrow I will try and make friends with the other contestants seeing as it will be a bonding day for the remanding 11. That's right someone is leaving tonight.

I get out of bed and walk to my bathroom and step into the shower and turn the water to an icy cold. It sooths my body and I feel my muscles relaxing already. After I am done I dress in a pair of dark shorts and a green tank top that matches Marvel's eyes. I pull on a pair of black vans and head out to the dining room for breakfast.

"Good morning Marvel. How did you sleep?" I ask trying to sound as nonchalant as possible. He smiles up at me as if seeing my attempt.

"I slept well. How about you?" I look up to see the mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Well I slept fantastic. I'm nervous about tonight." I admit sheepishly knowing that he can tell I am working on keeping the conversation going.

"Well you shouldn't be. You have the best voice out of all of us and you looked better than any girl I had seen last night. Or any night before that. You will be safe for sure." I blush at his sweet words knowing he wouldn't lie to me but still doubt both statements.

"What song are you singing for the results? I still am stuck between two." I ask trying to move the conversation to him.

"It's a surprise. You will like it I'm sure." His comment confuses me but I decide to let it go because I can't dwell on what he is planning. I decide that I will practice both songs once again and see how it goes then make my final decision. I excuse myself from the table and walk my way to the sound booths down stairs.

I am standing next to Marvel holding his hand as we wait to hear the fate of two of the pairs. This is how they do it. They you who is safe and not. It is always two boys and two girls. Everyone will perform one song on their own and then the bottom four will perform a life saver song that will give the audience one last look till they get to vote who will go home.

Both of the pairs are safe which worries me on its own because that just means there is more of a chance I will go home or Marvel will. The next thing I know Marvel is on stage during the commercial getting ready for his solo. He is ready and I am standing on the stage giving him thumbs up and only a minute before the show is back on the air he runs over to me.

"You really think only thumbs up will make me feel better?" I giggle as he traps me in a hug "Listen to the song carefully this is for you." I don't get a chance to question him as he runs out on stage."

"Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Yeahh

I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me "Do I look okay? "
I say

When I see your face (face face...)
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are (are)
And when you smile (smile smile...)
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are (are)
Yeah

Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday

Oh you know, you know, you know
I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are (are)"

Marvel was in the middle of the stage singing his song when the rest of the contenders came over and pushed me out to him. He grabs my hand and spins me and then sings his last part. And throughout the verse his hand is resting gently on my cheek

"When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are (are)
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Yeah"

And on that last note he kisses me in front of all Panem. It is short and sweet nothing inappropriate but all the same filled with feeling. When he pulls away he smiles down at my shocked face and says the words I never thought I would have been asked in front of the entire nation.

"Katniss Everdeen will you be my girlfriend?" I can't help the smile that breaks out onto my face, and I can't find my voice to speak so I just nod my head vigorously and jump into his arms for a hug. There is applause and I smile up at Marvel, my boyfriend.

"Give it up for the new couple of this season. After the break we will be hearing the powerful voice of Katniss Everdeen. See you when we get back." The voice of Caesar says and I smile and wave at the camera.

"You know if you weren't so cute I would have said no for embarrassing me on live television." I say teasingly as we walk off stage holding hands.

"Oh so you like me for my looks? I see how it is. Here I was thinking that you thought I had a nice personality." He says faking his sorrow. I giggle and give him a quick peck on the lips and smile at him.

"I like everything about you so don't get your boxers in a twist." He laughs and gives me one last kiss and I walk out onto the stage to get my microphone. My heels are making my feet ache but I know that it completes the outfit. My hair is in loose curls and my dress is white and has a bunch of loose chiffon strands of fabric that make up the skirt. I look almost as good as last night. Soon we are back on the air and it is my turn to sing.

"Bring the beat in!

Honey, honey
I can see the stars all the way from here
Can't you see the glow on the window pane?
I can feel the sun whenever you're near
Every time you touch me I just melt away

Now everybody asks me why I'm smiling out from ear to ear (They say love hurts)
But I know (It's gonna take a little work)
Nothing's perfect, but it's worth it after fighting through my tears
And finally you put me first

Baby it's you.
You're the one I love.
You're the one I need.
You're the only one I see.

Come on baby it's you.

You're the one that gives your all.
You're the one I can always call.
When I need you make everything stop.
Finally you put my love on top.

Ooh! Come on baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
You put my love on top.
Ooh oooh! Come on baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
My love on top.
My love on top.

Baby, Baby
I can hear the wind whipping past my face.
As we dance the night away.
Boy your lips taste like a night of champagne.
As I kiss you again, and again, and again and again.

Baby it's you.
You're the one I love.
You're the one I need.
You're the only one I see.
Come on baby it's you.
You're the one that gives your all.
You're the one I can always call.
When I need you make everything stop.
Finally you put my love on top.

Oh! Baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
You put my love on top.
Oh Oh! Come on baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
My love on top.

Baby it's you.
You're the one I love.
You're the one I need.
You're the only thing I see.
Come on baby it's you.
You're the one that gives your all.
You're the one I can always call.
When I need you baby everything stops.
Finally you put my love on top.

Baby, you're the one I love.
Baby, you're all I need.
You're the only one I see.
Come on baby it's you.
You're the one that gives your all.
You're the one I can always call.
When I need you everything stops.
Finally you put my love on top

Baby.
'Cause you're the one that I love.
Baby you're the one that I need.
You're the only man I see.
Baby baby it's you.
You're the one that gives your all.
You're the one I always call.
When I need you everything stops.
Finally you put my love on top

Baby.
'Cause you're the one that I love.
Baby you're the one that I need.
You're the only one I see.
Baby, baby, it's you.
You're the one that gives your all.
You're the one I always call.
When I need you everything stops.
Finally you put my love on top"

When I am finished I walk off of stage and Marvel is standing there just like last night waiting to congratulate me. We wait for us to be called onto stage and it is agonizing waiting to hear how we did last night with the votes, but eventually we are called along with a girl and boy who appear to also be a couple.

"Last night we heard Katniss' powerful singing 'unfaithful' but was her power enough to keep her in this competition? We also listened to Marvel sing 'How to Save a Life' and he showed off his charm through his voice but was that charm enough to get the votes. Together Katniss and Marvel showed their undeniable chemistry when they sang 'Just a Dream'. Well apparently the charm, power, and chemistry worked in their favor because you are safe!"

I let out a breath of relief knowing that neither Marvel nor I will be leaving this week. The couple beside us is not as lucky, unfortunately both of them are put into sudden death. The rest of the show goes by quickly and I am more than happy when we can finally go back to our floors. A man names Blight was sent home and his partner, Johanna, didn't seem to mind at all.

Marvel and I settle down in our room for the night cuddling on the couch. It is relaxing and I know if it was possible I would be perfectly fine staying in his arms the rest of my life.
