Hey y'all(: Chapter 6 is here! Looking back on my story, it's only been 5 chapters and Cato thinks he's falling in love with Katniss? O.o I'm sorry to burst your bubble that yes he says that yet she has a while to build up feelings for him. She's not overly obsessed with him, nor' does she like him that way. ;D I know, I'm evil but Katniss is just curious. She's wondering why Cato smiled at her. So don't come to me saying, "Their relationship is coming too fast!" because it's not. So lovelies, I hope you like this chapter. It's practically about Haymitch, Katniss, Effie, and Cinna eating and La-di-da. 'Kay? And tell me in my reviews or PM me about the BONUS. ;D I don't know what to write for I but that's where y'all come in! Now, on with the story….

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out.

You left me in the dark.

No dawn, no day. I'm always in this twilight!

In the shadow of your heart.

Florence and The Machine, "Cosmic Love."

Katniss POV

"Haymitch!" Effie squeals, waiting for him to make an appearance for dinner. "You're late for dinner! Manners Haymitch, manners! This is so disrespectful…" Right as she sits down, Haymitch stumbles in holding a wine bottle, a smirk tearing at his aged features.

"What? It's not like it's a banquet, Trinket." He cackles loudly, saying that he's had way too many drinks. "Now, how about you all have your little tea party and I'll join later when I can hold a fork…" He stumbles back to his room.

Rolling my eyes, I start eating a whole bowl of this weird, white, creamy soup that has bits of beef and carrots. The thick texture glides down my throat and the spices add a burning sensation. Effie finishes quickly surprisingly and stands up.

"Excuse me, I'm going to say hello to my friend Cecilia, the mentor from District Eight!" she chirps. In a matter of seconds, she's out the door, her heels clicking on the tiled floors.

"I'm going to bed early," Peeta added. "I'll see you tomorrow." Peeta leaves the room, leaving me all alone with Cinna.

"Katniss-" he starts but I interrupt.

"It's okay. I should probably get ready for the second day of training anyhow. It's a matter of life and death anyways." He nods and heads out the door where Effie departed. Now… what should I do? Everything here is foreign and different. There's probably a set of bow and arrows in he Training Center but in reality, I bet it's patrolled and locked up, so no tributes are allowed the advantage of training more. Figures.

I go back to my room to find a redheaded avox, a girl around my age, maybe fifteen. She's putting away new training clothes when she notices me. A look of terror crosses her features before relaxing. I smile and sit on my bed, humming. But it's not to long until I notice the avox cleaning up for me was the girl I could've saved.

I cower, my head hanging low, knowing she remembers me. It's probably not a happy remembrance, nor' is it a total loathing, for she only knows my face. I start to cry and she comes out with a wet cloth.

"You know, I should've helped you that day. I should've brought you away from the clearing. I'm so sorry," I sobbed, while she shook her head no, and wiped my face with the cloth. An idea comes to my mind.

"Can you write down your name for me? I want to know." Technically, I'm not supposed to do this and there's probably only cameras in the outer apartment.

The avox smiles and I get a paper and pen, giving it to her as she writes.

The words appear after a minute or two. Scrawled out on the page is one small sentence:

My name is Lavinia.

I smile, knowing that it's probably the first time she's talked ever since the incident. But as I'm about to take the paper and look at it, she writes more.

Once you are done using this page tonight, burn it. The Capitol forbids us talking. Now, you should probably sleep. Okay? It's a big day tomorrow and I want you to win these stupid Games, Katniss.

I smile and nod.

"Thank you Lavinia." She crumples the note and puts it in my hand before inspecting the room and then leaves with a nod of her head.

All of the sudden, I realize that this is the first time since the reaping that I feel almost….. almost…

I feel happy.

Yes, I know it's short. Well for 4 pages, it's okay but not enough to fill in like a long chapter would. Personally, I like long chapters, but doesn't everyone? Lol, while I was writing this, I was listening to "Long Distance" by Megan and Liz and "Are You Happy Now." I have… checking view chart… 1, 586 views! Yay and Nay. Yay that I have that many views. Nay for not as many reviews as I'd like but it'll do! But don't worry, I get pretty lazy reviewing too. Well, Review (you don't have to. I'm not one of those crazy authors claiming I will come to your house and maime you. That's sick.), Add to your Favorites, Alert, whatever. As long as you like the story, I'm happy! And please tell me if you want that bonus. You get to decide where to go with it!
