"Johanna-" katniss sighed, opening her eyes, sitting up. "You sleep ok?" She asked,smiling , laughing as Johanna sleepily snuggled closer to her.
"Katniss move. You're hogging the blanket" Johanna wrapped her arms around katniss, opening her eyes. "Hey brainless" she yawned, sitting up, wincing as she did so.
"Ready for breakfast?" Katniss stood throwing on a grey shirt. She held out her hand, helping Johanna to her feet.
Johanna laughed, getting dressed, then took Katniss's hand as they walked down to breakfast.
When they entered the mess hall, they were instantly greeted by Beetee. "Katniss remember that project you asked me to work on?" He asked, "well it was surprisingly simple. I stayed awake much of the night to work on it, and it should be done by Thursday afternoon."
"What project are you working on, Beetee?" Johanna asked, trying to sound interested.
"A replica of a for-" Beetee started to say before he was frantically cut off by Katniss.
"Fort." Katniss said, internally wincing as Johanna gave her a look that meant she wasn't fooled.
"Whatever. We gotta eat, brainless if we're getting to training on time." Johanna and Katniss sat down at a table near Prim.
The food was much the same as it was every morning. A scoop of gruel, a cup of fruit, a slice of bread with cheese and a glass of milk. A pitcher of water sat on the table.
They ate quickly, finishing in ten minutes. "Let's go. We gotta make up for lost time out there." Johanna's eyes held a ferocity Katniss hadn't seen since the Quarter Quell. She jogged beside Johanna, her ribs aching, until they got to the main exit. It was raining.
"You can do this Johanna." Katniss whispered words of encouragement to the trembling figure . "I'll protect you."
"Thanks. Johanna whispered back. "But I'm ok. So long as you don't leave my side the whole time.
"I promise." Katniss whispered, as they walked out the doors, Johanna gripping Katniss's hand so hard it hurt.
