Chapter 12: Birthday Party part 2 Disclaimer: I do not own the hunger games 3rd Person
"And now, please welcome... the great Katniss Everdeen and her lovely hubby Peeta!" Screams erupt from the crowds as the stars walk on the stage, Peeta wearing a black and white tux while Katniss wears a simple yet beautiful blue design of Cinna's.
"Hello, thank you for coming, we will be singing a duet because someone basically forced me to-" He gently prises the mike out of her clenched fingers, while my mum is busy glaring daggers at Johanna, Rye and even Peeta.
"Not that we mind, this is for our lovely nieces birthday!" He adds hastily.
"Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlights people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night.
Working hard to get my fill,
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice,
Just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feelin'
Streetlights people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feelin'
Streetlights people"
They finish with a smile, but are soon hurried off by Johanna.
"And the next performance will be by our very own... Finnick Odair!" Jo screams at the crowd. If possible, the cheers are louder this time. But then, the majority of the people here are teenage girls.
Honestly, everyone has gone mental at the sight of him singing "Sexy and I know it". Not Lily though. Shes seen it plenty of times before; it's an everyday thing for Finnick.

Lily POV:
The rest of the night goes quickly; before I know it, I'm standing on the stage being introduced by Johanna.
All the other acts were exceptional. Some embarrassing, like my parents singing some more love songs (mum: mine by Taylor Swift and dad: army of two by Olly Murs). Annie's performance was amazing; I never knew she had such a sweet little voice until now. She sang Crazier by Taylor Swift, and it suited her perfectly.
Just thinking about it makes me nervous; I mean, I'm doing the last song, it has to be better than every other one. It probably won't be though, with all this pressure. Most people assure me I will be brilliant, but some just ignore me. I don't know why.
"Hey everyone! Now, because we are in a forest and can't play music, I'm going to sing for you guys tonight. " I look over the crowds from the stage and can't believe how many people turned up. Basically everyone from this district, and a few adults too.
"So this is I'd Lie, by Taylor Swift.
I don't think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells me about his night
And I count the colors in his eyes
He'll never fall in love he swears
As he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing 'cause I hope he's wrong
And I don't think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke I fake a smile
That I know all his favorite songs and
I could tell you his favorite colors green
He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him, I'd lie
He looks around the room
Innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn't a light go on?
Doesn't he know I've had him memorized for so long?
He sees everything black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don't let nobody see me wishing he was mine
I could tell you his favorite colors green
He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him, I'd lie
He stands there then walks away
My God, if I could only say
I'm holding every breathe for you
He'd never tell you but he can play guitar
I think he can see through everything but my heart
First thought when I wake up is, "My god, he's beautiful"
So I put on my make up and pray for a miracle
Yes, I could tell you his favorite colors green A/N: You can probably tell that I love Taylor swift at the moment! I love all her songs and I simply adore the way they tell a story. I might write a sequel depending on how well this goes down with you lot. If you want to know what happens next, please review! Right now, I'm busy with schoolwork and my other stories (The Drama of School and it's prequel, Unfortunate) Please check them out if you are bored! You should probably read Unfortunate first; but I'm only on the second chapter as it was kinda a last minute idea. Thank you for reading and all your support, I love all you guys!
He loves to argue oh and it kills me
His sisters beautiful he has his father's eyes
And if you asked me if I love him
If you ask me if I love him, I'd lie"
I've locked eyes with Finn in the crowd, and it really seems as if this song was made for this moment. For me and Finn.
THE END
