Chapter 2 From his eyes
I woke up that morning with an excruciating headache. How did I get into my bed last night? Lets see, thaw last thing I remember is Effie coming to my door and us walking to the victors' banquet last night. The rest is a blur.
Maybe Effie escorted me to my house. Effie. Wait, did I really just think that?! What happened last night? Gah, those blue eyes get me every time! Am I losing my mind? Maybe a small drink of water and short walk will give me my sanity back.
I got a drink of water and got dressed. My headache was still aching like a fire in my brain. Unfortunately, pain killer is on a short in District 12 so I couldn't take any. I walked outside and thought to myself I will never drink again. funny. I almost convinced myself. I can't believe I am thinking about Effie, and about quitting drinking, I really must be going crazy.
As I walked, I realized where exactly I was walking: Effie's house. Her house was one hundered feet away. I tried to walk away, but I had no control over my own legs. I kept walking and it was like I was wearing someone else's legs. Effie's door got bigger and bigger the closer I got. When her door was finally in front of me, I stopped. Luckily, I kept myself from knocking and instead I ran-no-sprinted away.
Just as I got back to my house, I slammed the door shut and realized how bad the sound and the light hurt my head. Then I thought of Effie. For a second- just a second- my headache left my head.
I looked out the window just in time to see Effie walking out her door. She was wearing a bright yellow sundress that hurt my eyes and head. She was wearing a baby pink wig with it. She looked like a beautiful sunset. Gah, those blue eyes again! She bagan walking and heading strait for- my house? Yes. Uh oh.
I quickly walked to the mirror and looked at myself. Same old Haymitch. as I was doing so, I heard a soft, gentle knock on the door. I opened it and sure enough there was sunset Effie standing in front of me.
"Hey Effie. Can I ask what you're doing here?"
"that's funy. I remember yoU saying those exact words to me last night. I was just coming to see if you were alright or needed anything."
"I'm fine... Just have a really bad headache."
" I'll give you some aspirin." And she started rummaging through her purse and gave me two white capsules.
the next few moments we stood there staring at each other awkwardly. "Well I should be going. Goodbye Haymitch; I hope you get feeling better." And before I could reply, Effie was gone.
