A/N: Ima do a sequel to this. Yea, I know I'm awesome. It's gonna be called Picking Up the Pieces. Fancy huh? Anyway… my Clato feelings are kinda messed up cuz of the latest chapter of my fic Step Brothers (which you should read!) just warning you. I'll post it tomorrow because I'm the nicest person ever!
Chapter 9:
Rue's POV:
"Prim!" I yelled. "We're gonna be late!"
"Calm down, Rue. We're not that late" Prim said walking down the stairs braiding her golden hair. She was wearing a pink dress with wight flats. "Love your dress girl" I was wearing a turquoise dress with blue flats and my hair down.
"Are you ready?" I asked.
"Yes" Prim said and we walked out the door.
"We were supposed to be there 7 minuets ago!" I said looking at my watch.
"It's not my fault I got stuck babysitting the twins" Prim said. Cato and Clove had their twins, Carner and Alicia, about a week ago. Plus Katniss is due in a month.
I grabbed Prim's wrist and dragged her the rest of the way to the movie theater. Ruben and Rory were leaning against the wall. "Hey" they said simultaneously.
"Hi" I said while Prim just gasped for breath.
Ruben grabbed my hand and lead me into the theater. We were seeing some movie from before the dark days about a girl who pretends to be her brother so she can play soccer. (She's the Man. One of my favorite movies!) I sat next to Ruben and he put his arm around my shoulders. He's become less awkward since we started dating.
We sat threw the movie in silence except for the part when Monique gets rejected by Viola/Sebastian at Crusty's (Favorite part) I couldn't stop laughing.
"Like the movie?" Rory asked while we were walking home.
"Yes" Prim and Ruben said.
"Best friggen movie of all time!" I screamed.
"Better than Transformers?" Ruben gasped.
"Your the only one that likes that movie" I said.
"And you call yourself my girlfriend" Ruben laughed I giggled.
"Why can't you be cute like that?" Prim asked Rory.
"Cuz I'm sexy. You can't be cute and sexy" Rory explained.
"You saying I'm not cute?" Prim asked.
"No, I…" Rory started.
"You saying I'm not sexy!" Prim screeched and stomped away. Rory ran after her begging for forgiveness.
"He's screwed" Ruben said.
"So, I'm cute and sexy right?" I asked casually.
"Yep" Ruben said popping the 'p'.
"Good" I said and we walked the rest of the way home in a convertible silence.
Cato's POV:
"Cato the baby's crying" Clove complained poking me in the stomach.
"It's your turn" I moaned putting a pillow over my face.
"No it's not!" Clove said taking the pillow and pushing me off the bed.
"That wasn't nice Mrs. Hadley" I said.
"Don't use the 'Mrs. Hadley' crap on me. Now go get the baby" Clove said.
I sighed and walked across the room to the crib were the babies were sleeping. "Shh. Daddy's here" I said rocking him back and forth. "Carner, please stop crying" I begged. He had my blond hair with Clove's chocolate brown eyes. Same as his twin sister.
I handed him to Clove and she fed him. I set the sleeping baby back down in the crib. "We should work out a system where we don't have to get out of bed" I said crawling under the covers.
"Or we can trick Rue and Prim to always watch them" Clove said resting her head on my chest. I laughed.
"I love you, Clove"
"I love you too" Clove said. We both fell into a dreamless sleep only to be waken 40 minuets later by Alicia's crying. It's going to be a long night.
Katniss's POV:
I looked at the baby asleep in the crib. She had my dark brown hair and Peeta's blue eyes. She was only two days old and didn't have a name. She was my daughter. I didn't feel anything towards her. Not love. Not happiness. Not joy. Not excitement. I didn't feel anything towards her. Not even hate! It's like she's just another baby my mother helped deliver and I was just watching her sleep. Not my own daughter.
It was three in the morning and I was leaving. I didn't know where I was going or when I was going to be back, but I was leaving. I sighed and walked out of the door into the crisp early morning air. I walked threw the victors village and to the train station. I was on a train to district three 20 minuets later anxious to start a new life.
A/N: Katniss left. Who saw that coming! NO ONE! That's why I'm doing a sequel! Picking Up the Pieces will hopefully be posted tomorrow or Tuesday. I hoped you liked this fanfic and I hope you enjoy the next one!
