After removing my make-up and getting changed into my black leggings and black tank-top and my placed my hoodie on me. I make my way out of the changing room and to the theatre seats zipping up my hoodie. I look around and find Peeta and Johanna, already in their next outfit. Peeta was wearing a black mens tank-top and black trousers, that were rolled up at the bottoms. Johanna was wearing a off the shoulder grey shirt with blue shorts and white trainers. I make my way over to them and sit down next to Peeta. Peeta sees me and smiles.
"Hey are you okay?" He asks remembering the event from before. I nod.
"Yeah I'm fine." I say to him. I look over to the stage to see Finnick and Annie making their way into their first positions. Annie started in the centre of the stage, while Finnick started at the back of the stage facing Annie. Annie has her hair down, and is wearing a cream-coloured dress. It had a nice flow to it that ended just below her knees. It also had some fabric come up the crossed at the top of her dress and was tied at the back of her neck. She also wore no shoes. Finnick was wearing a white sleeved top, with light brown rolled-up trousers. When the music started Finnick made his way over to her and they begun.
So far their dance was amazing. But that suddenly changed when something horrible happened. Annie and Finnick were holding hands and were skipping forwards. When Annie brought her leg out to her left, it look liked she lost her balance and fell to her left side. With luck, Finnick was able to catch her and spun her around. If I hadn't of see them in rehearsal, I would have thought that was part of the dance. I just hope Snow falls for it.
Once the music faded, Annie and Finnick made their way of the stage. Annie can right over to us and threw her arms round Johanna's already open arms. She wasn't loud but I could slightly hear her muffels of sobs coming out of her mouth. I look away from the scene and to the stage where Marvel and Glimmer have started their routine. I start to feel sick again.
"Are you okay?" I look to my left to see Peeta's eyes staring at me.
"Is he really that bad?" I whisper to him. He takes a deep breath.
"We can only pray he didn't notice Annie's mistake." I may not know Peeta all that well, but I could still hear the worrieness in his voice. I look back to the stage and watch as Glimmer and Marvel come to the end of their dance. Peeta and I then stand up and make our way over to the stage, but not before being wished good luck by Annie, Finnick and Johanna. As we approach the stage Mavel and Glimmer came of with big smiles on their faces. They turned to us and gave us a smirk before walking off. Peeta and I shared one last glance at each other before making our way onto the stage.
Once Peeta and I are on the stage we share one last glance at each other before we make our way to our starting positions. We were in centre stage with our backs against each other. I was facing the audience while Peeta was facing the back. I close my eyes and take a deep breath. I suddenly feel Peeta's hands grab mine and squeeze them for comfort. I smile, wishing I could thank him, and our hands detach.
The music soon begins. I stand still for the opening music before beginning my first move. I grab Peeta's hands one by one but fast and bring them over our heads. I then start to fall to my feet with Peeta's hands letting me fall slowly. Once I am on the floor I get back up again and walk around him so I am now facing him. I lock my right arm round his neck while bringing my left leg up. He uses his right arm to keep my leg up and his left arm to hold my waist. He turns round slow and lets my left foot touch the floor. I move my left arm to his right and we lock hands. I spin around with our hands holding and bring my right leg up. We look at each other for a split second before he spins me around and we begin the chorus.
We are coming near to the end of the song. Peeta is standing behind me, i have my back on his chest, with his hands holding onto mine. My hands are in front of my chest, and I bring my chest out and back in 4 times for the first 'open up your heart'. Then I bring it out another 4 times, and then 2 more. Peeta's and mine hands are moving out as well for this move. I spin around so I am facing him. His sky-blue eyes looking deep into my own. I don't hear the music or think of the people in the room. Its just me and him. I don't realise it at first but i feel myself leaning forward. Peeta's face is coming closer to mine. Is he moving forward as well? Are our lips about to touch?
I then suddenly feel Peeta's hands grab my own and push me back. I don't fall back as Peeta brings me forward again but spins me round again so my back is to him again. Our hands are hugging my body. I bring my feet up and he spins us around. As I bring my feet to the floor I feel him spin me around again and I lean back sitting myself on the floor with my knees up. Peeta then pulls me up and lets go of my hands. I open up my arms and legs and wrap them around his body. The song then soon ends.
Our bodies let go of each other, but we carry on holding hands. We walk down the steps of the stage and past Glimmer, who is going up for her solo. I could have sworn I saw a jealous look on her face. We walk over to Finnick, Annie and Johanna. Annie runs over to us and throws her arms over me, catching me of guard. I let go of Peeta's hand and hug Annie back. Wait. Let go of Peeta's hand?! Was I holding it this entire time?!
"Oh my god, guys." Annie said letting go of me, "That was amazing." I smile and look down.
"There's that smile you love so much." Finnick says. I look up to see Peeta push Finnick slightly. Peeta loves my smile?
"Hey Katniss," I look over to Johanna, "Come with me quick will ya?" I give her a little confused look but walk over to her. Annie follows. We stop when were away from Finnick and Peeta. "Spill."
"What?" I ask. What do I need to spill?
"You like Peeta, don't you?" Johanna said. I blush.
"What? No I don't." I say in a nearly high pitch voice.
"Yeah right, your blushing." Annie says giving me a nudge. I look down, blushing even more.
"Oh crap," I look up at Johanna, seeing she is looking at the stage. "I have to go now. See ya." She says walking away from us.
"Good luck!" Annie calls out. I hear Johanna shout out a faint: "yeah, yeah." Annie looks back at me smiling. "You two were going to kiss, weren't you?" Annie said to me. I shake my head.
"No we weren't." Annie lets out a little laugh.
"Okay, if that's what you say." Annie then walks back over to Finnick, leaving me blushing like crazy.
