I didn't mention it before but the reason that Katniss and Peeta don't have lunch together is because they have it at the same time just in different rooms. (there are two different lunch rooms) Even though lunch isn't mentioned in this chapter I had to tell you guys before I forgot.

Katniss POV

When we walk into the school yard all eyes are on us. I walk a little faster taking Peeta inside with me. There are more people looking at us inside because a lot of them are searching for things in their lockers. Peeta walks me to my locker and says, "Katniss, please try not to let them get to you." I try to ignore him and I touch the combination dial to open my locker when he grabs my hand. "I love you." He says. I sigh, "I love you too." He smile and kisses my forehead, then the bell rings. We now have five minutes to get to our classes. "I've got to go. See you in math, okay?" I nod, I can't believe that I have to wait a whole class period to see him.

He walks away smiling and I get my things for English class out of my locker. I close my locker and start walking towards English when a group of girls standing in the hallway calls my over to them. "Everdeen, come here." I slowly walk over to them. "So," one of them says. "I hear that you and Peeta and a thing now, is that right?" I nod and nervously tuck a strand over hair behind my ear. "I... I guess you could say that." She laughs and all of her little 'followers' laugh on cue. Then she takes a step towards me. "Back off, I don't know what he sees in you but you aren't good enough for him." Then in one swift movement she knocks my books out of my hands, sending them all over the floor, and walks away, the rest of the group following closely behind.

I bend down and start picking up the books that are now being stepped on by everyone using the hallway. By the time I find all of my books that have been kicked about, I stand up and the bell rings. Great, I'm late for class.

I was thinking about making this chapter longer but there were a few people who wanted something to read tonight and this is all I could manage before bed. Enjoy! :)
