Hey guys! Sorry I didn't update yesterday. I was really busy! But anyway here is the chapter!
"Hey, Katniss." Peeta says. He gives me a smile that makes me melt. I now know that I could be falling for him.
"You're great," I say. "I meant with singing." I add.
"Me? No I think you are the singer here." He says. I blush madly and he smiles.
"Thanks." I say.
"But by any chance are following me? Because I'm pretty sure you are new to this town considering you called Plutarch music man." He says. Annie, Finnick, and Thresh crack up at this and I blush. He chuckles.
"I am not following you. I came here with my friends." I say motioning to the people at my table. He smiles and waves at them.
"I'm sorry I don't know any of you." He states. "Wait you are Finnick Odair right?" he then says.
"Yep. That's right." Finnick says.
"Awesome. And the rest of you are?" Peeta asks.
"Thresh Mare." Thresh says sticking out his hand. Peeta shakes his hand then looks at Annie.
"Annie Cresta- Odair." Annie says. Well I guess I know her maiden name now. He shakes her hand too.
"I thought you looked familiar." He says.
He then turns to me with a small grin on his face. "And you may be?" he says.
I chuckle. "Katniss Laurel Everdeen." I say and smile at him.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Katniss Laurel Everdeen. I'm Peeta James Xander Mellark." He says.
I smile up at him and he smiles down at me. I get lost in his eyes and I think he does too, by the he looks at me. We get snapped out of our moment when I hear Annie giggle. I snap my head back at her and give her a death glare. She then busts out laughing. I hear Peeta chuckle and I turn to him and blush.
He smiles at me. "You're beautiful when you blush." He says and I blush even harder. He covers his mouth, then uncovers it and says, "Did I just say that?' he asks. For his answer Thresh and Finnick cackle. He blushes.
"Ditto." I say and smile.
"What?" he asks with a confused face.
"You're beautiful when you blush, too." I say. He smiles.
"Well, I better get back to the farm. Bye." He says. He takes my hand and gives it a small kiss. I get all giddy when he does and smile like an idiot.
He stands up and says, "See you later, Katniss Laurel Everdeen."
I wave goodbye and go into a daze. I don't know how long I was in it because the next I know Finnick is paying the check.
"Finnick, I can pay for my own meal." I say pulling out my wallet.
"No." he says shoving my wallet back.
"Whatever." I say rolling my eyes.
He pays and we leave the diner to walk around. We walk around for a while because they show me everything.
"Who's up for a little singing in the streets?" Thresh asks. Finnick and Annie nod their heads like maniacs so I do too.
"What song?" Annie asks.
"I know how about What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction!" Thresh exclaims. We all look at him strangely. "What? That's all Rue listens too!" he says.
"I don't wouldn't it be kind of weird watching 18 to 33 year olds sing that?" I ask.
"And seeing British and Irish dudes in skinny jeans isn't?" Finnick asks raising his eyebrow.
"Oh." Is all I say. He chuckles and shakes his head.
"Ohhh, I know! Let's sing Summer Nights by Rascal Flatts!" Annie says. I nod my head. I love this song when I was younger that was all I listened to. Finnick says yes. Thresh is the only one that hasn't said anything.
"I don't know the song." Thresh finally says.
"Well to bad!" Annie says and Finnick sticks out his tongue. Thresh pretends to pout but then smiles.
"I'll just dance" he says with a smirk.
Annie and Finnick whistle, howl, and claps their hands while Thresh takes his place. I smile and begin to sing.
Ha ha ha ha ha
It's summer nights, babe!
Woo! Yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on ladies, it's time to pop that top
And fellas, I know you're ready to rock
We went crazy cooped all winter long
And school is out, so let's get it on
Flip flop tans and some white sand, I know the perfect spot
Well, the sunset better set soon
So we can get in the mood
Things start getting all heated up
When it starts getting cool, yeah
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Thresh is an amazing break dancer really, with his big and bulk body anyway.
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
A-come on, oh yeah, yeah
Now fellas, you better watch your step
Don't let them teeny French bikinis make you lose your breath
Back to the ladies, y'all keep doing y'all's thang
'Cause everything about you makes me wanna scream
The sun is getting low, there it goes
Here we go, here comes the moon, yeah
Things start getting all heated up
When it starts getting cool, yeah
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
It's a party down in Padre
Big bonfire on the beach
It's Coronas in Daytona y'all
Where it's wild and it's free
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
A-come on
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
Yeah, oh, are you ready?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
For some summer nights
Yeah baby!
Summer nights!
It's summer nights
Come on!
I smile at them when it is finished and say I'm going to head home because I'm tired, which is true. I walk back home –I mean Cato's- lost in my thoughts. I think about Peeta, Mom, Prim, the future, Gale, Clove, and what's happen to me so far. A lot has happened since I left home. I met some amazing people on the way and I couldn't be happier. I make it back to Cato's at midnight. I was gone for a while, I guess that is what happens when you are with friends. I see Clove lounging on the couch when I walk in and go sit by her.
"Hey. Have fun?" Clove asks.
"Lots." I say and smile. She chuckles.
"So where is Cato?" I ask.
"Getting some food." She answers. I nod my head and get up from the couch to go to bed.
"Don't you want to know what we did?" Clove asks when I'm halfway out with a smirk on her face. I picture in my head of what they could have done I shudder at the thought and keep walking. I hear her laugh behind me and I shake my head.
I change into sweatpants and a navy blue shirt that has my school's logo on it, and crawl into bed. I smile to myself because I'm actually have a good time instead of having the worst time possible. I go to sleep dreaming of my friends and a certain sky blue-eyed boy.
Ok so I think I might do a Peeta POV for the next chapter. Tell me what you think! Love it? Hate it? Like it? Do you think I am a horrible writer? Tell me your thoughts! Review!
