A/N: Check my profile and there should be a link for their clothes. Chapter 9 everyone.

Katniss POV:

When I walk into me and Peeta's bedroom, Octavia is waiting for me.

"Here, sit down and put these shoes on" Octavia says, holding up a pair of black high heels right in front of my face.

"Are you guys trying to kill me?" I ask, pushing them away.

"No, but they will match your dress. " I sigh and take the shoes latching them around my ankles.

"You are going to love this dress. Cinna designed it for you before..." She sniffs. "He also designed all the others you will be wearing." She says, and I feel a pinch in my chest.

Cinna, my dear stylist, friend. I blink back the tears that are forming in my eyes, and wander over to the bag with my dress in it.

I unzip the overstuffed bag and see a long black gown, with silver designs at the top. I gasp for breath. Cinna. This looks exactly like something Cinna would have designed.

I pull the dress out of the bag, and hand it to Octavia while I undress, trying to work around the heels. I should have undressed first, I think.

Once I have all my clothes off, I step into the dress and pull it up around me. Octavia zips the back up and leads me to a mirror.

I gasp. "I look… I look…"

"Beautiful." Peeta says, and walks up behind me and kisses my cheek.

"Thank you" I say, smiling. Because it is true. I do look beautiful.

"Okay love birds. Peeta you have to get ready. Katniss, you have jewelry and makeup to do yet" Octavia scolds, smiling.

"Sorry ma'am" Peeta says, before going to get dressed in the other room.

"Katniss, sit right here" Octavia pulls out a chair for me.

I sit and Octavia starts to finish up my makeup.

"What is Venia doing" I ask, Octavia.

"Oh just a little project for the tour. She should be finished soon enough"

Flavius gasps when he walks in the room. "Katniss, you are stunning!" he says.

"Thanks to Cinna, and you guys" I say and smile.

Octavia and Flavius smile, and Octavia continues working on my makeup while Flavius grabs a black velvet box off the makeshift makeup table, and brings it over to me.

"Here is the jewelry to match your dress" he says and opens the box.

Inside is a black and white diamond set necklace and matching earrings. I gasp again. Everything is just so beautiful.

"All finished" Octavia says, in a singsong voice.

"And now for the finishing touches" they put the necklace around my neck, and the earrings in.

Flavius grabs another velvet box, and opens it to yield a white gold and white diamond hair piece, and he takes it out and hooks it underneath my bun.

"Now it is complete" Octavia says, smiling.

"Now let's go downstairs and see if Peeta is done"

Peeta POV:

"She looked so beautiful" I say, trying to explain to Haymitch how nice Katniss looked.

"I bet she does, Cinna designed it after all." He tells me. "Now will you please put this jacket on, so we can go downstairs?"

I slide the jacket on and walk out of the bedroom, and down to the living room to wait on Katniss and the rest of the prep team.

After a minute or two I hear a clicking noise, and some shuffling. And then a…

"God dammit. I hate these damn high heels. Can't I just wear my hunting boots?"

Katniss. I laugh and shake my head. But my laugh is cut short when she enters the living room, and it is transformed into a gasp.

"W…Wow" I stutter.

She smiles. "Wow yourself"

I walk over and pull her into my arms, and kiss her.

I pull back. "I don't have to bend to kiss you in heels" I say smiling.

"Yeah" she says, laughing.

I kiss her again.

"AH! Katniss, your makeup" Flavius yells, smacking me away from her.

"Sorry" she says, taking a tissue offered to her, and dabbing at her lipstick.

I take a tissue and wipe my lips. On the tissue is deep red lipstick. Opps.

"We will have to go to the stain" says Octavia, smiling.

Katniss sits down in the chair, and Octavia put a color similar to the one before on Katniss's lips.

"Now, wait till that dries and then you can kiss as much as you want. Just don't drool on her face or her makeup will run" Octavia says, hopefully joking about the last part.

"Yeah sure" Katniss says, smiling.

I go to kiss her again…

"NO! Let me see if it is dry yet." She yells, and rushes over and taps her lips with her finger.

"Okay. It is dry, go ahead and smooch" she finishes and walks into the kitchen to join Flavius, Effie and Haymitch.

Katniss and I laugh. I pull her in to kiss her.

This time nobody stops me.

Katniss POV:

Peeta and I kiss for what seems like hours, but eventually Effie comes in and interrupts.

"Okay ladies and gentlemen." Effie says, addressing Peeta, me and the prep team… Oh and Haymitch. I decide to mess with them.

"Effie, you forgot Haymitch" I say, with a smirk on my face.

Everyone but Haymitch laughs. But Effie manages a small smile.

"Fuck you, sweetheart" Haymitch says, taking a swig of water.

"Very funny Katniss. Haymitch watch your language." Effie scolds.

"Now can we get back to business?" she asks.

I sigh, but nod my head anyway.

"Alright then. The crew and Caesar will be her in about 30 minutes. So everyone sit still and try to look like you aren't angry about being here." She says.

"Yes ma'am" we all say, and Effie smiles before excusing herself to finish getting ready.

Peeta pulls me over to the couch and I sit beside him, leaning against his shoulders.

"Come on. Is this really nessasary? I mean seriously!" Johanna is asking.

"Of course it is. You have to look just as nice as Katniss and Peeta. You have an interview too Johanna" says a very stressed out Venia.

As they round the corner Johanna emerges in a beautiful short pink puffy dress. No wonder why Venia is so stressed. She has Johanna's hair in ringlets and a chocker style necklace and matching earrings. Also she is covered in makeup and has silver high heels.

"Johanna. You look gorgeous!"

"You look amazing too Katniss. Did they have to hold you down too?" Jo asks.

"No I am used to the corporal punishment now. I just sit back and let them do their job. It is usually easier that way." I say, smiling.

Johanna plops into the chair next to us.

"Whatever. I just want to get out of this shit. I am all hot and uncomfortable" She complains.

"Okay Jo. Whatever. They should be here soon." I reassure her.

"Everybody act casual. They are here. Just calm down okay, everything will go along fine" Effie practically screams.

"Effie you're the only one that is freaking out" Johanna says

"Whatever, just will you please act like your all excited for the interviews? Katniss?"

"Ughh! Fine" I sigh.

"Good" she says, and leaves the room.

"Well. That's Effie for you" Peeta says, pulling me even closer if that is even possible.

"Yeah" I say.

"Crazy ass women. I swear she fits in with all this crazy shit" Johanna mutters.

"Did I say that out loud?" she asks.

We all nod and laugh. Johanna joins in the laughter, making it even louder.

"Will you guys be QUIET!" Effie yells from the other room.

But that only makes us laugh even louder than before.

Okay, this chapter is long over do. But I have a busy weekend so don't expect more than 3 chapters this weekend. Sorry.
