CHAPTER FOUR.

I wake up, rub my eyes a little, and then sit up. I look around our dorm and notice how cute and chic it actually is. On Madge's side, her bed sheets are a deep purple with an intricate flower pattern on it. On her bedside table I see a photo of her family. There's also, and owl shaped clock, and a light brown lamp. Her desk has turned more into a vanity, there's a mirror on the wall behind the desk. The desk has a laptop on it, an owl piggy bank, and some pretty flowers in a vase, a brush and some perfumes. Around the room there's decorations and artwork covering parts of the walls. There's giant a peacock made out of plastic jewels on one side of the room. The blue and green hues pair perfectly with the brown color of the walls in our dorm. Some of the walls just have bookshelves or paintings of feathers. One wall has a flat television on it, and under it we have our little fridge, a microwave and a little counter. A couple feet in front of that we have a turquoise love seat, this is placed in front of the window, in the middle of our beds and nightstands. And in a corner of the room we have the arch way that leads to the closet. Then, next to that is my desk which I have put anything on except for my own laptop that I got as a gift for my birthday once, from my Uncle Haymitch. He works and lives in The Capitol, every year he sends, Prim and I, things my mother could never afford to give me.

The owl clock on our wall says 8:37, I guess I should start my day. I want to pick up my schedule before it gets to busy in the administration office. I get and tip toe to the closet, so I don't wake up Madge. I decide on just wearing shorts and a flowy tank top.

When I walk out of the closet, Madge is awake. "Morning, Katniss. Are you picking up your schedule today?" She yawns. "Yeah, I was gonna go this morning so I can get there before its busy." I say. "Can I join you? Since I was going to go this morning also." I shrug. "Sure, Madge. Why not?" She smiles. "Okay! Give me a minute." She says walking into the closet. I take a seat on the floor in front of a body length mirror and braid my hair down my back. I was never the girl to wear make up, and today is not the day I'm going to start. By the time I'm done braiding my hair, Madge walks out of the closet in a pair of black shorts and a nice blouse and her hair is in a high pony tail.

Madge and I start walking towards the office. We walk in sort of an awkward silence, not really knowing what to talk about, until Madge says "so, do you still sing?" I look at her surprised, how did she know that's what got me here.. "I just remember you having an amazing singing voice when we were younger, people always thought it was your thing." I blush slightly. "Yes, actually it's what got me here." I say bashfully. "What do you Madge?" I ask. Madge looks down for a second "Violin, Viola, Cello, Bass, Piano, and a little bit of drama." My jaw drops, she looks up and blushes. "I suppose it's another perk of being the mayor's daughter." We smile at each other, and continue walking. Apparently, she's been learning Piano since the first grade, and it's what she's been auditioning with. Madge and I talk a little more, just about small subjects. Like District 12, her house, her favorite books, where she learned everything, the woods, Prim, the Seam, Elementary School, Peeta Mellark, Gale Hawthorne.

Madge and I talk all the way until we're back in our dorm and lounging on our couch. From this morning to now we've become friends, really good friends. It was about 11 o' clock, so I decided to tell Madge. "Hey. Madge.." "Yeah, Kat?" She says with a worried look. "I have a …date… with Peeta for lunch." I say quietly. Her face relaxes and then goes to excitement. "Katniss! That's great, Peeta doesn't ask many girls out." She says joyfully. I blush. "What time is he coming?" She asks. "Around noon." I shrug. "That's great! I can h elp you get ready!" She cheers. Oh no, she wants to give me a... Make-over... my eyes widen. "Its alright, Madge. I think I'll be okay. Besides its just Peeta." I say sternly. Madge gives me a puppy dog look. "Please?" She says quietly. "...Fine." I pout. Madge cheers in victory. I can't believe I'm going to let her, but I mean might as well, its good to have at least one friend, plus I trust her she knows my limits. Madge disappears into our closet. "Okay, First. Outfit. I'm thinking this." She comes out hold a casual white lace dress, with short sleeves and a thin deep orange belt around the waist. "Madge, I couldn't its yours." I start. "Oh, be quiet." She says handing me the dress and pushing me into the closet to change.

I slip the dress on and it actual fits quite nicely. It compliments my small wait but flowing out at the hips and lands on my lower thigh.

"Katniss, don't leave my waiting out here for forever!" She yells. I walk out, and look at Madge. She's eyeing me careful, she twirls her finger tell me to turn. When I've made a complete circle she nods in approval. "Next, Make up." She says grabbing her bag. Before I can even protest she's wiping Mascara on my eyelashes. She highlights my eyes, and adds some pale pink lipstick to my lips. "There, done." She pulls back, and smiles in accomplishment. "I could tell you wanted a natural look, plus it looks great on you." Madge spins me around to the mirror. Wow, she was right. I look like me, but my eyes are more defined and look silvery instead of gray. I looked like a prettier version of myself. "Wow, Madge." I sigh. She just smiles in my approval. "Okay, now your hair." She looks at me in concentration, and then her face lights up. She runs to her desk and pulls out a deep flower that you can clip into your hair. She pulls my hair from the braid leaving it wavier because of the braid, and then she clips some hair around the side of my face back near my ear with the flower, leaving the rest of my hair flowing down my back. "There, we're done." She says cheerfully. "Madge—" I get cut off by a knock on the door. It's already 11:56. Madge goes to open the door, and I see Peeta standing there at the doorway smiling brightly. I can feel the butterflies building in my stomach already.
