Hey guys! I decided that instead, I would have shout outs at the begging, and all the authors note at the bottom.

That's for the future though, I cant give shout outs right now because Im in a rush, sorry.

The only shout out goes to my beta, Josh4eva3, for being awesome and editing this for me. If anyone reading this chapter needs a beta, I would recommend her.

Chapter 10

Finnick's POV

It took about ten minutes to drive to the restaurant. I parked the car and went to open the door for Annie. Annie smiled and stepped out of the car and took a hold of my arm. We walked to the restaurant. Because I had forgotten to make a reservation and it was packed, since it was dinner, I ended up flirting my way into getting a table for Annie and me. The waitress led Annie and me to the table and we both sat down. The waitress handed out the menus, batted her ugly eyelashes at me multiple times and left.

"Ug, what an annoying waitress," Annie said as she rolled her eyes.

"Aw, is Annie jealous?"

"No, she was just annoying," Annie said as she picked up the menu and opened it.

"It's okay, she has nothing on you babe," I said. I watched Annie's face turn bright red and a smile replaced her frown. The waitress soon came back and took our orders. I made sure not to devote any of my attention to the waitress and instead fondled Annie the whole time, making Annie extremely happy.

"So how was your day today?" I asked her, attempting to start a conversation.

"Johanna and I bought new cars today and I love mine! Then we went and got ice cream and guess who we saw?"

"Katniss?" I asked. I remember Katniss saying something about her going to an ice cream shop today.

"Yes! How did you know?"

"She told me," I simply said with a shrug of my shoulders.

"Anyways, we saw Katniss and a guy! Can you believe it? I couldn't either but do you know what Johanna wanted to do? Johanna wanted to follow them! Of course, I tricked her and didn't let her!" Annie said with a big smile—the smile she wore when she was proud of herself. I smiled back, knowing Annie was about to start one of her adorable rants.

I allowed Annie to ramble about how rude it was of Johanna until the waitress came and presented us with our food.

"Here you go, if you need anything, and I mean anything,just holler," She said with a wink. She turned around and swayed her hips as she walked away. I knew Annie would comment on this but before I let her. I bent my neck down and kissed her on the lips—causing her to forget about the waitress.

Katniss's POV

I left the restaurant, my mind still thinking about how I would tell Peeta. Could I tell him that I had to meet someone with my grandpa? Or should I just make something up? Snow's voice snapped me out of my reverie.

"Okay Katniss, six o' clock sharp…and wear something pretty, not like what you're wearing now," Snow said as his eyes traveled up and down my body, making me self-conscious.

"I'm sure she will, thank you for the dinner but we must get going. I have to enroll the kids in school today,"

"If I may, what school will Katniss be enrolled in?" Snow asked. I rolled my eyes; this could not get any creepier.

"I will be sending them both to Panem High School," Haymitch answered.

"Great choice Haymitch! My bloodline has to have the best education," Snow said holding his head high and a smile on his face.

"Yes, they both will. But anyway, I must really get going, good-bye Snow," Haymitch said before turning around and heading toward the car.

"Shot gun!" I yelled and ran to the front of the car. I stuck my hand out and grabbed the handle to the door.

"Not fair! You had a head start!" Gale complained.

"Or you're just a sore loser," I said with a smirk. We all got in the car and the tension soon built.

"Okay, why does that creep want me to go with him tomorrow?" I asked Haymitch.

"He wants to use you to merge his company with another big company in the Capitol," Haymitch answered.

"And how is he gonna do that? Who do I have to meet?"

"That, I don't know. But I suggest going with him tomorrow. You have no idea the power he has."

"Okay and so, if I go and he asks questions?"

"Then make your answer as neutral as possible," Haymitch said. I nodded and Haymitch parked the car in the driveway.

"Anyway, I'm going to call the school and go to sleep. G'night," Haymitch said as he let us inside the house. I nodded and headed up stairs to my room with Gale right behind me. I walked into my room and shut the door, not knowing Gale had followed me into my room.

"You're not going to sleep and neither am I so let's actually do something," he said as he jumped onto my bed. I closed the door behind him and went to change my clothes. I grabbed a pair of knee high shorts and a tank top and went to my closet to change.

I came out and saw that Gale had made himself comfortable. He was sitting on my bed, remote in his hands and flipping through the channels.

"So, nice dinner eh?" Gale asked tauntingly.

"Ugh what a creep. He wouldn't leave me alone!" I complained.

"Don't you think I noticed?" He asked.

"Now I have to cancel my plans and go—"

"Cancel your plans? What plans did you have?" Gale asked. I should not have said that. I felt my face heat up and looked to the ground.

"I was going out with someone," I simply stated, pretending like it was no big deal.

"And that someone is? Wait why do I even need to ask, its probably lover boy."

"What am I going to tell him?" I asked, furiously tugging the hair tie out of my hair.

"Um… tell him that you're sick or something."

"Would that work?" I asked.

"If you make yourself sound like a good liar, which you probably can't."

"How about through text…?"

"I guess, but you should probably send it tomorrow," Gale said.

"Yeah sure easy, now what should we do?"

"I vote horror movie," Gale said as he jumped off my bed and went to look for a horror movie. He came back with The Devil.

Throughout the whole movie, I held onto my blanket and would hide my eyes when the scary parts came. When the movie was over, Gale retreated to his room. I tried to fall asleep, but I couldn't. The movie had scared me so I went to Gales room.

I marched into his room, not caring whether or not he was asleep.

"Wake up, I'm scared," I announced. Gale's hands soon came up to rub his eyes.

"So you had to wake me up?" Gale grumbled.

"Yes and you have to do something about it," I stated.

"Me? Why me?"

"Because you're the one who suggested watching a scary movie,"

"You are so annoying sometimes," Gale grumbled as he slowly rose from his bed. "What do you want to do?"

"Hm…Let's go to Peeta's house!" I suggested with a smile on my face.

"Katniss, you do realize that it's the middle of the night, they're probably sleeping by now," Gale said.

"You're no fun," I said. I walked out of his room, leaving him to his sleep. I looked at the time; it was 2:30 am. I wondered if Prim is awake… I picked up my phone and dialed Prim's number. Prim answered on the first ring.

"Katniss! Finally!"

"Hey little duck."

"How are you? How's the capitol?"

"It's good, everything's great."

"How's Gale? How's Uncle Haymitch? Are there any cute guys?"

"Whoa slow down. Gale and Haymitch are fine."

"You forgot about the third question…" Prim said dejectedly.

"Yes there are lots of cute guys. How about you? How's mom?"

"Moms fine, she works at the hospital now."

"That's great, how are you and Rory?" I said with a smile on my face. Prim and Rory had liked each other since they were small and Gale and I often teased them about it.

"I'm going to see him soon!" Prim answered. I could almost hear the smile forming on her face.

"That's great then! Well, I won't hold you up then, have fun!"

"Okay thanks! You too! Talk to you later," Prim said before hanging up. I put my phone back on the nightstand and looked at the clock. It was now 2:50. I laid back down on my bed and tried to fall asleep. I tossed and turned but failed to fall asleep.

I got out of my bed. I had tossed and turned for roughly 40 minutes—it was 3:27 now. I decided that since I probably wouldn't fall asleep I might as well go outside for a walk. I changed into a pair of sweatpants, hoodie and boots and slowly went outside. I plugged my headphones and listened to the music playing on my phone in order to distract me.

I walked wherever my feet would take me—and that happened to be a club. The club's music was blaring through the stereo sounds and I could practically see the building vibrate. I took another look at it before deciding to walk away. As I walked away, I heard a car approaching. I clutched my phone and stopped walking, watching as the car slowed down and stopped. The car rolled down the windows.

"It's only me Katniss," I heard. I looked inside the window and saw Peeta and a very drunk Johanna in the back.

"Want a lift?" He asked. I nodded and stepped into the passenger seat.

"Whose car is this?" I asked.

"It's Johanna's. Since I had to pick her up, I took her car you know…just in case she throws up," Peeta answered.

"Oh."

"So why are you out alone walking in the middle of the night?" he asked.

"Couldn't sleep," I replied.

"Its dangerous to be out alone in the middle of the night," he said.

"I can take care of myself."

"Whatever you say. So where are Finnick and Annie?"

"They're screwing," Peeta said as he turned the car. I stayed quiet until Peeta spoke again.

"Want to hang with me or should I take you home?"

"I will…hang with you," I said.

"Okay, let's drop off Johanna and we can go get breakfast or something."

"Go to breakfast without me?" Johanna said slurring her words. Both Peeta and I decided not to answer her questions and instead stayed quiet.

"That is so…" And before Johanna could finish her sentence, she threw up all over the back seat.

"And this is why I didn't take my car," Peeta said. Luckily, we just reached their house. Peeta carefully helped Johanna out of the car, and into her house. I followed them into the house and I was going to follow them upstairs, except Peeta stopped me.

"You'll see my room when its clean and plus Annie and Finnick are still going at it, so we're just going to go if that's alright with you?"

"Yeah that's more than fine," I said. Peeta took hold of my hand and led me to his car. He went around the car and opened my door for me before he walked around the car to get into his seat. He slowly pulled out of the driveway and drove off.

"Okay, where to?"

"Nowhere fancy," I replied. I looked at the time on my phone and saw that it was 4:45.

"I don't think anywhere "fancy" is exactly open at this time," Peeta said with a cheeky smile on his face.

He drove us to a bakery. When I walked in, the aroma permeated through out the room and my mouth watered for something to eat.

"How the heck did you discover this place?" I asked him, still eyeing the muffins.

"Google," Peeta replied. I rolled my eyes, I should have thought of that earlier.

"Okay, what do you want?"

"I want a chocolate muffin!" I said with enthusiasm.

"Anything to drink?" He asked me. I shook my head no.

"2 chocolate muffins and tea—no sugar," Peeta ordered. I reached into my back pocket to pay but Peeta's hand stopped me.

"It's on me," He said. I gave him a questioning look.

"I can pay for myself," I told Peeta.

"I know you can," Peeta said. He laced his fingers through my own and gripped my hand strongly, preventing me from reaching my money. Peeta took our stuff for us and we went to sit down. He passed my muffin toward me and I eagerly reached out for it.

"So re you going to give me a real reason why you're out, alone, in the middle of the night?" He asked. I looked down; I didn't want to tell him a movie had scared me so I settled on lying.

"I had one too many energy drinks?" I said, my voice sounding unsure of itself. Peeta looked at my skeptically.

"Liar. We all know you're the world's worst liar ever," Peeta said with a slight smile forming on his face.

"Fine, I watched a movie and didn't want to sleep after it," I said. It wasn't a lie…it just wasn't the complete truth.

"Whatever you say Katniss," Peeta said. He picked up the wrappers from our eaten food and threw them away. He once again took hold of my hand and we walked out the shop.

"Where to now?" Peeta asked looking around the streets.

"Let's just walk on the sidewalk," I suggested and he nodded.
