Chapter 3: We meet... Kind of
Katniss Pov
I wake up to a beeping sound and I roll over to turn off my alarm clock. I moan and get up to check the time, it's 9am. I climb out of bed and check my roster sheet and see I have 1 class today, pe (sport) at 11 o'clock. "Why", I whimper not wanting to do lessons straight away. I force myself up and grab some clothes and a towel, then open the door and walk down the hallway to the bathrooms. I open the door which reads "ladies restroom" and to my left are cubicles and to my right are showers and changing rooms and straight ahead are lockers. First I go to the bathroom and then I wash my hands. Next I put my clothes in a locker and grab my towel then take a shower. When I finished my shower I wrapped myself in a towel and went outside. I opened my locker and grabbed my clean clothes. Then I went into a changing room, dried myself off and put on my clean clothes. I was wearing a blue sequin top and some black leggings and give my hair a wavy look. I then picked up my towel and dirty clothes and leave. When I get to my room I go inside, throw my clothes into a basket of the floor for my weekly wash and grab a notebook and folder, then I take my pencil case.
Peeta Pov
I wake up at 9.15am and get up. I then look out my window and see a clear blue sky and hope that something good will come from today. I get up and walk over to my brown desk and pick up my roster sheet. I go down the list until I find today's date and see I have one lesson at 11 o'clock for 2-3 hours. I then put the sheet down and go to some drawers and grab new clothes, I then shower and change into a white t-shirt and black trousers. Next I grab a folder and some pencils then check the time one last time- it's 10:30am- well it's my first lesson I might as well go early to meet my new teacher and some classmates.
Katniss Pov
I head down the hallway and swipe my card, then I go down the stairs. I then open the door and walk toward the main building. I'm walking along one of the pathways and as i'm turning to walk under an arch to the fountain. Smack! I fall to the floor and realise I've just bumped into someone. Great first impression. "I'm so sorry" I stutter while picking up my folder and some pages. I then see him bend down to pick up his folder and he hands me some sheets then stands up. We both apologise repeatedly to each other.
Then a gentle, male voice concludes, "No, sorry it's my fault", I look up momentarily and see a muscular boy with ashy blonde hair holding his hand out to me. Unsure of what to do I put I put my hand in his and surprisingly he pulls me up. I then stand their sheepishly and put some hair behind my ear.
I clutch my books tight to my chest and say "thanks" then walk under the arch towards the main building.
I decide to do something that will take my mind off things, tweeter or at least that's what we call it. It's basically twitter but we like this name better because it sounds like the noise a bird makes. I turn my phone on and check my direct messages and have a new follower, a boy named Peeta from a year ago. He had sent me a few messages but I never really noticed him. I can't tell what he looks like from his photo but he looks blonde and cute.
I message him back saying: hey, it's Katniss congrats on getting into a university I got to go to have a lecture on sports :( bye :).
I walk into the main building and it is huge. I sit at a seat in the third row and hear a noise.
It's my phone, I look at it and see a message from Peeta: thanks, nice hair by the way.
That's so sweet and a bit creepy. I smile embarrassed and think to myself... but wait how can he see my hair. By this time half the seats are filled up so I look around and see at least 20 blonde guys. Great. I message him back saying: thanks but how can you see me.
Then the lecture begins- I turn my phone on silent- and our professor introduces himself, "Hello, I'm Mr Abernathy, your professor", he continues but then I look in my bag and see my phone light up, wait is Peeta messaging me while we have to learn.
I look at the message and it says: Easy your beautiful.
I blush slightly concerned but continue to message him in class, while listening. Personally i'm not fond of lectures I find them so boring but if I want to be a coach then I need to listen.
When class is over I message Peeta saying: Where are you? But as soon as I do everyone gets up to leave and so do I. Next thing I know i'm lost in a crowd of students and I can't find him.
When I finally get out of the crowd I head to my room and get a message: sorry, I tried to catch up to you but I couldn't find you in the crowd, maybe we could meet later. Maybe, I message him.
Peeta Pov (Before he meets Katniss)
I leave my room and head to a pair of doors on the opposite side of the hallway and go through them. Once outside I walk straight ahead to the main building and then get on a pathway and just as i'm turning a corner I feel a thump in my chest and I drop my folder. Shocked I look down and see a girl with wavy black hair and she keeps saying "I'm so sorry" and grabbing paper. She looks pretty even though I can't see her properly. So I bend down and pick up my folder and pick up some of her sheets then give them to her. But not before I can get a good look at her face. She looks embarrassed, it's adorable. I have to resist the urge to kiss her. I then apologise and we both keep saying sorry for a few minutes. I then stand up and remember my manners, this is a young lady, so I hold my hand out for her. She looks at me and I give her a shy smile, I know I've seen her before maybe not in person but I know her, Twitter! She then puts her hand in mine, and it feels so... right, then I help her up. She gives me a shy smile and tucks some hair behind her ear. She's so cute. Then she thanks me and leaves. I stand their a few moments then walk after her, why was she going in the direction of my class, unless. Yes!
On my way to class my phone beeps and I pick it up to see what's wrong I read it, it said: hey, it's Katniss congrats on getting into a university I got to go to have a lecture on sports :( bye :).
Then I realise that's the girl I just saw I've wanted her to recognise me for years but I only recently set up a twitter or tweeter account. I walk into the building and sit next to Katniss but turn my head away from her and cover my face with my shoulder. I then send her a message just to check if it's the same person and to compliment her.
I wrote: thanks, nice hair by the way. I glance over my shoulder and see her smile then look around the room, I turn away.
She messages me: thanks but how can you see me, and I decide to say something to really make her smile.
It said: Easy your beautiful.
I notice her blush and feel mixed emotions, happiness yet sadness because she doesn't know me, we haven't met. We message each other throughout the lecture and then she sends me a message and I realised I hadn't answered it from the beginning. She asked where I was but before I have time to message her everyone floods out of the building as if their were a fire or something. I jump up as she leaves but I can't catch up with her or see her so I just send her a final message: sorry, I tried to catch up to you but I couldn't find you in the crowd, maybe we could meet later. Maybe, she sent me. I then head back to my room with a huge smile on my face. Hopefully we will meet, soon!
