A Lack of Color
If you feel discouraged
That there's a lack of color here
Please don't worry lover
It's really bursting at the seams
For absorbing everything
The spectrum's a to z
Oh shit. Do my eyes deceive me? Did Shannon actually update? No. Your eyes do not deceive you. This is reality.
I apologize for the long wait. My parents wanted me to stop writing and start focusing on schoolwork. HAH. Too bad. It's been about five weeks since I've been back at school. Depressing. I have a lot of work to do, so I haven't had any time to write. Don't worry though, I'm not disowning this story. I could never do that to you guys. Thank you all so much for the support and encouragement you've given me. I'm extremely exited to have you read this. It's kind of uneventful though... So. I'll just let ya'll decide yourselves whether this chapter is, ya know, legit or not.
OH! Okay. Sorry to all the Johale shippers. Gadge has won. But let me remind ya'll, I still love Johale. But Gadge had more votes.

Annie POV
"Dammit! Open the door ya batch!"
"Batch of cookies!" Jackie sings.
Finnick and I have been stuck in this crowded-ass closet for the past ten minutes and everybody thinks it's hilarious to keep us in here.
"Give it up Ann. She's not going to let us out."
"Wow. Way to stay optimistic."
By now, we had found a flashlight which we've decided to hang onto the ceiling. This really stinks. I'm trapped in a tight closed with Finnick Odair's body pressed up against mine. Well, the situation isn't too bad I guess.
"What do we have to do in order for you to let us out!?" Finnick screams.
"Dude. Not so loud. I'm right here." I rub my ear.
"Sorry," Finnick murmurs.
According to my phone, we've been standing in here for about fifteen minutes. My legs are tired. I'm literally leaning on Finnick for support. Poor kid.
"Do you hear that?" Fin asks me.
"What?"
"Footsteps."
We both glance at each other. "HEEEEEEEEELLLP! LET US OUT FUCKERS!"
Fifteen minutes ago...
Madge POV
We all gather around the table getting ready for lunch, Gale plopping into the seat beside mine. There seems to be thick tension between Cato and Clove. She's clingy towards Marvel. He pulls out a chair for her and she sits down, smiling up at him. Clove and Marvel. That's not weird at all…
"So how's life treating you Undersee?"
"I'm alright. You?" I look over at Gale.
"I'm good," he says with a smile. I look down at my plate, blushing madly. Awks. So here's the thing. I've sort of had a teensy eensy weensy little crush on Gale since middle school. I've never really admitted it before but it seems a bit obvious to the girls. They're always teasing me because of it. I know Gale doesn't like me though. I mean, he's a total ladies' man and can have any girl beyond his desires. He already broke my heart several times in the past and he's a jerk. The girls tell me I can do better. I know I can. I'm done with Gale.
But I'm not.
Clove POV
This is hilarious. I'm glad I stuck to this plan. It's honestly satisfying knowing that I'm totally screwing Cato over. Marvel seems to be enjoying himself as well. Maybe a bit too much… Every time I look over to Cato, he's fricken staring my way. Apparently, Marvel notices this too.
"Are your eyes okay Cato? You can't seem to shut them." Marvel smirks and Cato glares at him.
This can't get any better.
"Nah, I'm good. I'm just observing how much food Clove is inhaling."
Did he really just go there?
"Observing? Honey please. You know you're infatuated with me," I wink and blow him a kiss. Marvel's grip on my hand tightens and he clenches his jaw. I look up at him in confusion.
I begin to resume our little spat, but Glimmer beats me to it. "Cato, why aren't you eating?! You need strength for today's practice!" She snatches his plate and stacks chicken strips, fries, and a taco onto it.
I look around and nobody seemed to be surprised or shocked. I glance at Jackie and she mouths, 'tell you later'. I nod and go back to paying attention to Glato.
"Since when did you care?" Cato asks.
"Cato honey, I've always cared. Even if our relationship didn't work out, I still do," Glimmer replies, her voice as smooth as silk.
WHAT THE HELL.
I have to cover my mouth with a napkin to keep myself from spewing all fourteen fries out.
It's really short. I know. Lo siento.
So... You guys learned that Clove likes eating. Yep. Good times. Cato and Glimmer are exes, Marvel seems overprotective of Clove, Jackie is a conniving bitch, Annie and Finnick have great sexual tension, and Madge has issues with Gale. Just wait 'till I get to Peeniss (haha. peeniss) and Jarvel.
Okay. So With Madge and Gale, I'm basing their story off of mine. I had a close guy friend and we were friends since the 7th grade. I liked him later on. Starting in high school, he started acting like a jerk because he had a new group of friends and they were all super stuck up and whatnot. We would go to football games since we were both in drum line. He would always lead me on and completely ignore me the next day. This went on for months and sooner, my friend noticed that I stopped eating, There were scars on my arms, and I was always crying for some reason. She tried convincing me that I was too good for him. All my friends did. I think I was just smitten with him. I ignored all his bad attributes and convinced myself that his old personality was still there. That was a while ago though. I still see him sometimes and I try to forget everything that happened between us. Even though we don't talk anymore, I still can't get over him for some reason. I think it's because I liked him for so long; it's hard not to.
So there's my rant. Don't worry though! Gadge will have a happy ending! Hopefully :)
Please follow, favorite, and review!
