"I waited in my room for my mates to arrive. Dinner was an awkward event as it consisted of me and Cole eating in silence, Haymitch glaring at me, as Cole snitched about what happened, and Effie continuing on with her pointless drivel. I escaped as quickly as possible to wait for my mates, hoping that they'd done the same. My train of thought was quickly interrupted by the sound of the elevator doors opening. Oh god I didn't think this through, with Haymitch and Effie sat in the main room this could cause real problems. My attention turned to the door as I heard laughter from, what sounded like, my mates. The laughter quickly turned to silence. They'd seen each other, I needed to prevent the oncoming argument as quickly as possible.
"I yanked my door open and stepped out to interrupt the conflict. The scene before me really wasn't surprising as I had an idea of what to expect. On one side of the room was Haymitch, glaring at my mates and on the other, my four mates stood their ground, glaring right back at Haymitch. Effie, who was sat next to a standing Haymitch, started squealing about how it was good that I was associating myself with people from better districts than my own. This made my mates glares turn towards her, she was taken aback by this, obviously unaware of her back-handed compliment.
"I'd obviously revealed myself just in time to stop the inevitable fight. Whilst my girls both had threatening glares on their faces, accompanied by clenched fists and bared teeth, Cato and Marvel were the ones I was really worried about. At least Clove and Glimmer seemed to have some semblance of control. However, my boys seemed to be barely restraining themselves. You could clearly see the muscles convulse in both Cato's hulking form and Marvel's more lean one, if a fight was started, a currently swaying Haymitch wouldn't stand a chance.
"I stepped quickly into Clove's line of sight, as she was the closest to me, and she looked relieved to see me. She caught glimmers attention and they both walked over to me. The both embraced me, kissing me on my cheeks for added affect, dragging the attention of all occupants of the room over to the three of us. Whilst Cato and Marvel relaxed relatively quickly, Haymitch became more red and more angry, as I greeted them except with a kiss on the lips.
"What the fuck do you think your doing Katniss?!" Haymitch bellowed at me. "They're the enemy, you shouldn't be consorting with the likes of them!" My anger grew throughout his speech and now it was at boiling point. I stalked up to him and snarled in his face."Who the fuck do you think you are to talk to me like that!?" I grabbed him by his collar and shoved him into the nearest wall, I could feel the hate fuelled fire building in my gut. "Why don't you back off before I make you, you know absolutely nothing about me or my mates!" He was shocked in to silence and resorts to gaping at me like a fish fighting for oxygen. "Well, now that this is over with, I think we should have the conversation I'd originally planned for." I say, ending me and Haymitch's conversation, whilst gesturing towards my mates. I lead them towards my bedroom. This should be fun.
