Chapter 53:

Prim's POV

I watched as Katniss walked away from Peeta...one good question I have is why were they even in the closet? I would just love to know...

Just then I felt arms embrace me from behind. I squeaked in surprise, jumping a little in the air. I heard the boy chuckle in amusement.

"I didn't scare you did I now Prim?" I heard the boy ask. The boy's name registered in my head...Rory! I rolled my eyes...he would do this to scare me!

"You kind of did..." I admitted. He twirled me around and gave me a smile that was so genuine I couldn't help but smile back.

"How was your day today my little flower?" he asked me. I blushed a little bit at his nickname for me which made him grin.

"It was good overall..." I said. "What about yours?"

Rory shrugged. "You could say well. The only thing that was odd about my day was James running in to our room, screaming at the top of his lungs. I thought he was Katniss' friend...not mine..." Rory trailed off. I giggled, lovely James.

"James does that," I assured him. He rolled his eyes in reply.

"I don't think I ever noticed," he said, his voice dripping in sarcasm. I pushed him slightly away from me and sighed.

"Want to go to the dining room? Get something to eat because I am starving!" I exclaimed. Rory nodded his head in approval.

We walked to the dining room, hand in hand only to hear screams of joy. What in the world? We opened the door to the dining room to see Haymitch screaming in pure joy. I saw he was throwing something orange up in the air and laughing as if this was what he had been asking for all these years...what?

"Mr. Abernathy...control yourself," Coin demanded. Haymitch looked at her and shook his head in disapproval.

"You control yourself. Let the joy come out and take over...THE CARROTS ARE BACK!" Haymitch screamed. I looked over at Rory to see he had his eyes closed and was shaking his head. I giggled; Haymitch could be so silly at times it made me laugh.

"Right, and if you had not of eaten them all...we would have still had some but no, you had to go and get fat off of carrots!" Coin yelled, not trying to hide her frustration.

"At least I accomplished something," Haymitch smirked.

"What did you accomplish?" Coin asked, pinching the bridge of her nose.

"How to have fun!" Haymitch exclaimed, lots of carrots flying upwards.

"What?" Coin asked. Haymitch rolled his eyes, looking away from Coin.

"Leave me and my carrots alone in peace," he muttered. Coin's face went from pale to red from anger. She started yelling at him as Rory pulled me out of the dining room. He shook his head, a small smile on his face. I was just about to open my mouth to tell him something about what we just witnessed but instead of getting my words out, Rory's soft lips were pressed on to my own. My eyes widened in surprise, still not use to Rory kissing me but they eventually fluttered closed. He pulled away all too quickly though which made me a little sad but his smile brought one to mine.

"I have to go, have to help Gale get everything in order for when we leave, I shall see you soon my beautiful flower," Rory cooed. I blushed a deep crimson red as he left me. What am I supposed to do now? I thought about this as I wandered off, the whole time I heard Coin and Haymitch arguing. I stopped dead in my tracks. I knew exactly what I was going to do!

I started to head off to my destination. Hopefully the person I want to see will want to see me too! Unfortunately, I got stopped by none other than James in his cape. He gave me a grin that I returned.

"Where are you going?" he asked. I saw he was not acting all insane like he normally did. I looked at James like he was nuts…what is wrong with this man? Is he feeling well? What happened to all his energy?

"To visit someone…father," I told him. He smirked at me.

"Well, you are not allowed to visit anyone young lady! Now, you march back to your room, you are grounded!" James exclaimed, pointing in the direction to my room. My eyes widened in surprise. He was being serious…what in the world?

"Since when am I grounded?" I asked, putting my hands on my hips. James bit his lip but kept the serious face going.

"Since…just now! Now march!" James exclaimed. What has gotten in to James? Did he fall and hit his head or something? This is not James…at all.

"Who are you?" I asked, being serious. James gave me a confused look as if I was the one acting strange.

"James Russell…obviously…who else would I be?" James asked. He was starting to lose his temper. Since when did James have a temper?

"You don't act like it," I mumbled to myself. James glared at me.

"Now, as I was saying young lady…go back to your room right at this moment before I have to push you there the whole way," James demanded.

"Since when were you my father?" I asked starting to get scared that James was not being James…

"Since…just now…" James said, a little unsure about himself. He then returned to glaring at me. James, what in the world has happened to you? I mean seriously?

"James…are you alr-," I started but Haymitch took that time to run up and smile at us.

"What?" James asked, a bit irritated. Haymitch gasped.

"Is this really James?" Haymitch asked me. Wow…he was sober. That is…wow.

"Apparently…but I still don't know…" I mumbled.

"Well, good luck with that princess," Haymitch said. He then walked off while taking a big bite of his carrot that I did not know he had. Since when was I called princess?

"Now…march…" James hissed. I looked at James, completely horrified. He had a very serious expression on his face and looked angry. I gulped, feeling completely helpless. Right as I was about to listen to him James started cracking up laughing. I gave him a very confused look which made him laugh even harder that he fell on his knees.

"What is so funny?" I asked, not knowing at all why James was laughing. He wiped his eyes with his free hand that was not holding his stomach from all the laughter.

"You…" he whispered. I glared at him. My eyes widened as I realized what he had been doing the whole time.

"You had been acting this whole time?" I screeched. James looked up at me and gave me a grin which was soon replaced with his serious business face.

"For your information mother I was not acting. Coin made me very mad…you happy now…mother?" he asked.

"WHAT?" I exclaimed. He chuckled lightly.

"I was kidding! Take a joke Prim…" he said jokingly. I gave him a grin before he asked me something. "Where were you going until I stopped you being all un-James?"

"I was going to visit someone…" I started but James cut me off.

"Want to go get a snack with duster man?" James asked, standing up and as if one cue his cape started flowing back in the wind. He pulled out his duster and gave me a smile.

I rolled my eyes and responded, "Okay duster man." He chuckled and held his duster up in the air.

"OFF WE GO!" James exclaimed and led me away. I guess the person I wanted to visit could just wait…now; I am going to get a snack with none other than duster man.

Once again, sorry for the wait! Hopefully I can get better and get back on to my original schedule…if not then I shall get the next chapters up much quicker! Stay tuned for chapter 53…it is coming! Please leave me a review and I hoped you all enjoyed this chapter! Until next time…
