Hello! Sorry for the no updating thing. My laptop is stupid, and it wouldn't turn on. Grr. So, I've decided to skip all of that strategy crap-talk that may or may not help tributes. Thank you for the reviews! Without further ado, the next chapter! (the chapter's gonna be kinds short, sorry!)

Katniss POV:

When Peeta and Lily groaned, I almost decided not to talk to them about strategy. But I needed too. Even if it didn't help them. If I learned anything from Haymitch, it was that you always need to talk strategy.

I went through with it, and Lily and Peeta learned some stuff about shelter, food, and survival.

After dinner, I asked Peeta and Lily to go shower or something else, just trying to get them out of the room.. I had to talk with Haymitch and Effie in private. They've been doing this for years, so I figure I can get some advice from them.

I stomp into the living room car and plop down on the couch that's overly plush and velvety. I shudder, thinking about the rich Capital citizens, living without fear in comfortable richness. Oh, how I loathe you.

Haymitch and Effie look at me, and with their eyes ask, what? "How do I go about this?" I ask. "I want to save Peeta, and I want to save Lily too. But I can only choose one. I'm so confused," I say hurriedly.

"Sweetheart, you need to consider that Lily and Peeta can team up, and help keep each other alive. Lily might not survive anyways. Just consider the possibility. Now, go hang out with your boyfriend, 'cause me and sweet Effie have some stuff to talk about. Bye-Bye," he says.

I leave the room and head to mine. When I get in, I hear water running and a singing voice. Just to creep Peeta out, I go into the bathroom. I recognize the song he is singing, Misery, by Maroon 5.

I am in misery

There ain't nobody who can comfort me, oh yeah

I started singing right now, starting out in a soft voice.

Why won't you answer me?

Your silence is slowly killing me, oh yeah

Girl you really got me bad, you really got me bad

And I'm gonna get you back, I'm gonna get you back

Your salty skin and how it mixes in with mine

The way it feels to be completely intertwined

I start singing louder now.

Not that I didn't care, it's that I didn't know

It's not what I didn't feel, It's what I didn't know

"AHH!" Peeta screams like a little girl. "Why the hell are you in here, Katniss?" Peeta screams, poking his head around the shower curtain to glare at me.

"I came in here to shower, but you're in here. So I thought I would sing along to that song. I didn't think you would get scared," I say sweetly, batting my eyelashes.

"Ah, so you wanna take a shower, huh? Do you wanna take a shower with me?" Peeta asked, mimicking me right down to batting his eyelashes.

"No thank you. You're annoying when you sing. I'm leaving now. Tata!" I say with a Capital accent. Just as I'm leaving though, Peeta throws some water on me. I let out a little yelp of surprise. It was scalding hot! How can he shower in that hot of water? "You, Peeta Mellark, are so dead!" I yell. I exit the bathroom straight away though. I'm in no shape to fight him when he has all the power.

Heeeeyyyyy. So I'm gonna cut out a whole scene that probably takes up most of the next chapter, because I don't like it. I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote it. But I'm also going to try to shorten the train, because I think that it dragged on for a few more chapters. I'd like to just snap it closed and be done with it, so we can get to the Games sooner.

Ta-ta! Leave a review, if you want, my lovelies.
