A/n: This high school is based on Australian high school but with cheerleaders and football players. Technically we have football players or Rugby players.


'Red'

(Taylor Swift)

Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street
Faster than the wind
Passionate as sin, ended so suddenly
Loving him is like trying to change your mind
Once you're already flying through the free fall
Like the colors in autumn
So bright just before they lose it all

Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never met
Loving him was red
Loving him was red


(Katniss' POV)

I don't know what other people does when they find out their best friend is a bitch who will try to steal your boyfriend, who happens to be her ex-boyfriend, but didn't move on after two years. But in my book it's something that I don't just let go. I wouldn't be queen of Panem if I don't take justice for treason. Don't take my word for it; the last girl messed with me was Delly Cartwright. She told Gale that I rigged the draw. I did it for the right reasons, I know it should be his call but he asked me to help him and knowing Gale, he would insist on staying close to me instead of going to the college he wants. But back to Delly, I did everything to find a way to take her down, I even fought her but it wasn't enough so I tormented her on a daily basis.

I don't take these things lightly. If you Googled revenge you'll get KatnissEverdeendotcom

I'm not even kidding. Johanna and I made it for those seeking revenge. And it's a hit! I help a lot of revenge seeking daily, but my posse operates it. But this revenge doesn't just need KatnissEverdeen. It needs so much more than that. I love Madge. We've been friends since we were children. And I have had enough of her betrayals. Betray is in her nature and it's about time I put a stop to it. But knowing Madge for all those years she's going to know my moves, she's going to get away and move schools I know that for sure because she's coward. She runs away from her problems. But if she comes back, I'm going to make sure she regrets it…

I swung my legs off my bed throwing the blanket off of me. I made way to my bathroom and got myself ready for school. I did my hair in my everyday messy side braid. My makeup wasn't much, just a mere foundation, blush, lip gloss and a brush of waterproof mascara, and no eyeliner. Because it would just smudge off if I cry by any chance. And slipped into my cheerleading uniform; It's really unnecessary to wear it but we cheerleaders make sure to rub off to people that were cheerleaders. And slipped into my own letterman jacket; I recently received for getting captain in the varsity squad. And Gale's one is already displayed in my wall of fame.

I really love my uniform, hell it was earned with blood and sweat during practice. The former captain was a total bitch; she made everyone's life a living hell, and on school dances, the people without dates always end up down the bottom of the pyramid. She hated me but I had a boyfriend and she never got to put me down. I was shocked when I got captain, because she hated me and loved Madge. But she was a really good captain; we won most cheer comps when she was on the spot.

A properly fitted midriff sleeveless top and worn without leotards but only bra underneath. The team's logo is featured in the center of the top. The top ends right after the bra-line leaving my entire stomach bear showing my navel piercing. The bottom of cheerleading uniform is pleated skirt that starts right below my belly button. It's supposed to be on the natural waist line but it looks tacky so I always pull it up and also to make it shorter. And the squad just follows. And I wore spankies underneath my skirt.

And then went downstairs to eat breakfast by my lonesome. My parents divorced when I was just eleven years old and my sister Prim was nine. Prim's only two years younger than me but just like our parents, she's never home because she goes to a boarding school in England. Mum's living somewhere in Berlin or was it Paris now? And my father's somewhere I don't know, probably with his 100th girlfriend since his divorce with mum.

With my family money is never a problem. I could shower with money every day and never run out. My father Callahan Everdeen has shares with the biggest businesses in the world, whether it is; Record labels, hotels, Microsoft, etc. And my mother Sophia Rose Celeste was an heiress of the Celeste family, my mum's side that I never even have met. My mother was, is, very beautiful and vain. She used to tell me how horrible it was being pregnant with me. She never met any single one of my teachers, she constantly forgets my birthday, and she only comments about my appearance when she has something to criticize. And Prim, my sweet little sister. She's the perfect one and I'm the bad egg. But still, she's only one I have. I sweet as my dad is, he's never around and same goes for my mum…

Once I finished my salad, I got up and made way to the garage, hopped in my baby; my red glossy Ferrari California coupe-convertible. I got it the same day I got my permit from my uncle Brutus and his wife Enobaria. Clove's parents.

I dialled Johanna's number and put my Iphone5 on the compartment and I began to drive.

(Bold Johanna and Italics Katniss)

"Hey Sluzza."

"Hey whore."

"You do have the details on Madge?"

"She left as like you said she would."

"She's such a coward! But we need to take her down if by any chance she comes back."

"Are you sure you want to Kat? She's your best friend."

"She's no anymore, but your right. We'll do it when she comes back. I have to go, I'm driving."

"I'll see you at school."

Maybe I'm a little hesitant about this but Madge will pay. I don't know how but she will. I parked my car on my reserved lot. I stepped out and another convertible parked next to mine. I admire the car; it's obviously new, Ashton Martin. I looked but didn't touch. I wouldn't want anyone to touch it if it was mine. The owner stepped out; Finnick Odair, the new quarterback. I had my posse snoop him yesterday and he's a Leo, and he shagged half the girls in his old school twice. I'd say he's quiet the charmer.

"Is that Aston Martin V12 roadster?" I kinda felt insecure standing next my Ferrari while he stood next to a charcoal black convertible.

He raised his eyebrows out of curiosity but nods one. "You know cars?"

"Yes!" I exclaimed excitedly. "My father collected the miniature toys of the classics and I took interest."

"But you're a girly girl." He muttered.

I grimaced. "That's a bit sexist don't you think?"

He wrinkled his nose. "Now that I think of it, yeah. Sorry."

I just rolled my eyes.

"I almost forgot. Where do we go on mornings? "

"The group usually go out in the field to kick a few balls or help us with come up with routines. But you can do your own thing. If you please. But since you're new you can just come with me."


Finnick's pretty funny, he's charismatic, and a total flirt! We pretty much goofed around outside together. And he's an amazing football player. He showed proper tackles, demonstrated it with the other guys.

The way for a one on one tackle, with a person coming at you and not even trying to make a move, is to square your shoulders, plant your feet, get as low as you can, and go for their thighs or lower, remembering to wrap up.

Or cheek to cheek with your shoulder going into their stomach.

I even tried it with the guys but that obviously fails but when I tried with the girls. I nailed it! We hung around until the bell for roll call went off and we were off... For the first time after a very long time I went to the first two periods, straight. Without Madge to go behind the bleachers with to smoke, I'm stuck in class until I find a new wagging partner.

I would never ask Johanna, she's already addicted to weed, and I won't ask her to smoke with me. And Glimmer is always too busy hooking up with guys in the janitor's closet or the projecting room. Cashmere will hog it. Gloss is already my tonsil hockey partner. Marvel's gone as well with his sister. And Peeta's a hypocrite. Clove is my cousin and I don't want to encourage her smoking even though I know she already does. I'm not close enough with Cato. And the others aren't important enough. And Finnick is the only who I could try it with.

I'll ask him later and right then the bell of recess rang and I ran out, to the cafeteria shoving people out of way. But when I got there the ramp was still empty. I sat on my usual chair alone for a few minutes until Finnick came talking to a copper brown haired girl. It must be the new girl. She's pretty and innocent looking with that copper brown hair that flows past her shoulder with an Amy fringe. And her green eyes to match Finnick's. If you replaced her jeans and T-shirt into something more hottish then she could definitely be popular material. And then and there I was off getting Finnick as my wagging, slash, smoking partner. I can just easily replace Madge with the new girl.

I rushed over to them, interrupting their conversation. It was rude but who cares! I'm about to recruit the new girl. "Hey, I'm Katniss."

"Hi, I'm Annie." She replied bashfully.

She held out a hand but I ignore it and pulled her into a hug. "Were going to be the bestest friends!"

"Okay…" She said awkwardly, patting my back.

I pulled away with a big smile plastered on my face; it almost feels fake, because it probably is. But I need a reason to give her a makeover, and so I decided I'm having a sleepover. "So, I just decided to have a sleepover, why don't you come?"

She bit down her bottom lip, looking unsure. "I don't know… It's a school night and I won't be allowed."

"Please? Finnick will be there." I say in an attempt to tempt her.

"I will?" Finnick asks.

And I just nodded.

"Won't your parents mind having a boy over?"

I took a deep breath. "I live alone."

"I'm in then." He stated.

"So it's official! He's coming and you're coming. I'll see you there?" I didn't wait for an answer. "Great, be there by 7:00 O'clock." I said and began to walk away to invite more people, ignoring her protest behind me.

"Come over mine tonight, guys?"

"For what?"

"Sleepover with the new girl!" I said excitedly, taking a seat next to Gloss, who began peppering kisses on my face. "So are you in?"

"In your house? Fuck yeah!" Glimmer says.


Johanna and I headed over to my house right after school. She's been staying over a lot lately. Not that I mind, I actually love having her over because it's less scary and boring. Her parents took her car, and her credit card but she still have a lot of money because she has a savings just in case her parents does this, So she can still go shopping. And her grandparents hate her parents so they always side Johanna.

Anyway I asked Carmen; my nanny since I was a little baby to buy us underage teens alcohol and she does! She loves me like I'm her own daughter and I certainly love her more than the woman that calls herself my mother. Carmen is a loving, open minded person, she understands how it is being a teenager and doesn't disapprove of anything as long as it's safe. Anyway, I gave her a night off for a night after she returns with the alcohol and junk foods.

It's only 6:15 PM and Johanna and I were already wearing our nighties. Johanna wore her red cheerleading spankies and a white tank top with the school team name written on the center top. And I was the same, wearing my old cheer uniform, midriff tank top and my red shorts and over it is the school team jumper.

"Hey Kat, check this out."

I walked over where she's plopped and is on her laptop. I looked at the laptop and on it was a photo Gale outside a frat house holding beer with topless girls surrounding him and some of familiar faces from Panem. Johanna clicked on next photo and it was Gale snogging some blonde. There is an ache, a deep ache from the core of my body out of the. A gut wrenching feeling and it's not jealousy, its guilt. Because he wouldn't meet that girl if I chose to rig him closer here and we wouldn't be over.

"Are you okay?" Johanna asks sounding regretful for showing me the photos.

I licked my dry lips. "Yeah." Nodding I stood off my bed and fixed myself up avoiding looking on the mirror and see how pathetic and weak Gale makes me feel. "Let's go wait for the gang downstairs and maybe Carmen's back."

Everyone started arriving 5 minutes before seven and I put a movie for starters as we wait for the others to arrive at exactly 7:05 everyone arrived but Annie. But I didn't really care. After seeing that photo I only wanna top his photos with something worst that snogging and it's not topping kissing with sex. Just Kiss more than one guy and have a photo of it. And Johanna knows this too. Because if she and I have anything in common. Its revenge.

The group decided to play 'I never have ever' and we all gather up in a circle, the rules didn't need to be explained because we played this a thousand times. And go along to the right and Glimmer started, knowing her it's going to be sexual. "I never have ever got poison ivy for having sex in nature." Glimmer stated gulping down her vodka cruiser.

We all just looked at each other as she drinks, snickering and she stopped and when she noticed our stares she blushed.

And then it was Peeta. "I never have ever had to pick pubic hair from between my teeth." Everyone had to stop themselves from suppressing a hard laughed and for me I laughed so hard my stomach began to hurt. "That's disgusting!"

Johanna was still laughing and took a shot of her beer and laughed again shooting the liquid right on Gloss face and she laughed even harder and so did I.

Gloss didn't react; he just filled his mouth with beer and deliberately spat it on Johanna's face. The group just watched the two spit at each other laughing until they finished. "Just go Johanna." Gloss says irritated wiping the sticky liquid of his face.

"I never have ever skinny dipped with an opposite sex?" She said unsure.

I picked up my absolute vodka and skolled three mouthfuls. Just to be clear I did it with Gale. We used to do everything together… And I mean everything.

And then Clove. "I never have ever acted out sex scenes with Barbie and Ken."

I, Johanna, Glimmer, Cashmere, Fox and Clove drank leaving the guys with mouth agape and wide eyes. "We had a wild imagination!" Clove said.

And then Cato. "I never have ever hidden porn under my bed and my parents finding it." Just like the Barbie and Ken situation it was us girls. "We had a wild imagination!" Cato mocked Clove's words earlier earing a hard slap from me and he just grimaced.

And it was me; I was battling on whether 'having sex on a national park or in a sleeping bag but I settled on. "I never have ever have sex in a sleeping bag." I gulped on my drink to avoid their reactions

But I still heard Johanna exclaimed. "You're not a virgin!"

I felt my face heated up as I put the drink down on the carpeted floor. I shook my head.

"Since when?" Cash pried.

I thought back? I don't even remember when. All I know is that Gale and I just did… Oh no wait… It was when Gale first said I love you and I said it back. But I don't wanna tell them that, I couldn't they'll just feel sorry for me. "It was at this party. You get drunk and don't remember anything after that. You know the drill."

"It's unromantic, that doesn't sound like Gale." Clove says.

"Not everything has to be a romantic notion, Clover."

I stood off from where I'm standing. "I'm hungry is anyone else hungry? Come on, let's eat."


That's it...

Review please it keeps me motivated and I will be updating the river in riverse tomorrow...
