Just a little idea i had around Midnight last night.


Fireworks, such and old, but beautiful creation. The first ones go up at midnight, the burst into tiny multi-colored sparks creating different shapes in the sky.

"It's late…" A quiet, comforting voice hums behind her. She smiles slightly but doesn't spare a glance to her visitor as they come to stand beside her.

She sits on the ground of the rooftop garden, surrounded by vines, bushes and small trees, she loves how peaceful it is, and it helps hide her from prying eyes and ears. Her head tilts back watching as another firework lights up the sky.

"Can't sleep…" she sighs as he sits down next to her;

"Mind if I join you?" He asks, she shakes her head,

It's a few minutes before either of them speak again; they both sit there for a moment and watch the little display.

"The victory tour starts tomorrow. First stop is district twelve." She says, he glances at her, his green eyes soften; she looks so innocent right now.

"Are you excited?" He asks, she shrugs;

"I was at first at the thought of seeing my family…" She looks down;

"But…?" he pushes a little,

"I'm afraid of what comes after this, the tour, what if I can't face Rue's family, or Cato's, What if…"

"Shhh…." He silences her, "Hey, Don't worry about that right now, the whole team is going to be there with you, everything will be alright, but for now just take a deep breath and forget all that for a moment." He says, she frowns slightly;

"How?" she asks, he tilts her chin up to where she's watching the sky,

"Just watch." He says, the fall back onto their backs and he reaches over to take her hand and starts messaging her palm gently, and she lets him.

She watches the fireworks mesmerized and for a moment she's okay.

"I guess I should go back inside and try to rest, I'll get an earful from the prep team if there are dark circles under my eyes tomorrow." She says with a yawn as she sits up, he chuckles slightly and kisses her hand before she reluctantly pulls her hand from his;

"Thank you Cinna, I'll see you tomorrow." She says with a small smile as she stands to leave;

"Katniss?" he calls out sitting up, she freezes but doesn't turn to face him;

"What did you think of the show?" he asks because he can't think of anything else, he's not even sure why he called out to her; he just wants to make sure she's okay.

Sensing this she turns back to him with a real smile, not the fake one he's seen her give many other people;

"I like Fireworks." And with that she turns and leaves the roof, he smiles to himself as the last firework goes off spelling out the title no one will ever forget:

'Girl on Fire'


'Baby you're a firework, come on show 'em what your worth

Make 'em go oh, oh, oh as you shoot across the sky…'
