The grand entrance
Gales`s POV
I`m waiting in the district 12, the glass of champain in my hand is delicious, but my mind is somewhere else. The music is loud, the bases intense they are playing a song that I dont know but it makes my adrenalin spike at that second I see two of the people that I least wanted to see right now: Peeta and Delly. I used to be good friends with Delly, she was also my first kiss. But once she found out that Katniss was the one I was thinking of as we kissed she turned into a total slut. It kind of made me sad to see her standing there in net stockings and a mini skirt already obviously drunk. The last thing I expected was to see Peeta make his way over to my table.
To my sorrow he looked strikingly handsome in his tuxedo. And from the way he clutched his glass and looked around nervously I had the feeling that we were looking for the same person. When he had come to a stop infront of my table we man hugged and exchanged a how have you been. "Woah! Dude have you worked out, you're like a brick shithouse man." This makes me chuckle, "well I work as a security guard and door keeper for clubs, turns out that throwing drunks is a very efficient workout strategy. But your not fragile either man, what happend ?" He looks at the ground, "you know I have been the head of about four bakerys and was sitting behind a desk for a while but now I hired an agent and I can bake again, which does something for your body as well." Now I remember Peeta was always the boy with the bread.
Peeta's POV
In the back of my mind I notice the song has changed to "Lets think about it". After the first measure or two the doors at the top of the stairs are flung open and at the top of the stairs stands the sexiest, most beautiful and temperamentful women I have ever seen. She has curves any man would kill for. She starts making her way down the stairs at a pace matching the music, with every step she makes one long leg of hers peeks out of her dress the chatter in the room dies down. All eyes are on her. I am aware of movement next to me, and before I can get there Gale is already by her side. He escorts her over to our table.
She comes over to me and I can't help but notice how perfect they look together. "Hi Peeta" she lets go of his arm and hugs me after a few seconds she lets go A waitor comes by and hands her a glass of Champaign. For my taste he looks at her a little to long and I notice that Gale and I are sending him death stares. He quickly leaves "So what do you work as now ?" I ask her, she explains that she works at NYPD now. This doesnt surprise me I always knew she would do something that would involve protecting people.
Just then the DJ on stage tells us that each one of us will sing a song tonight. He has two glass bowls standing on his turn table. "As always ladies first, and the first singer is Katniss Everdeen."
