A/N: Victory Tour! It skips a month. I am aware of the OOC Prim! I know that she isn't depressed in the books, but do you really expect a 13 year-old who was forced into a death match, nearly killed, and watched her sister's best friend kill himself to come back like nothing's wrong? I didn't either.
Chapter 6
The prep team comes to prepare Prim for the Victory Tour. She's always loved dresses and feeling pretty, so she doesn't put up a fight, earning an approving look from her prep team. I think they like her better than they did me. Who am I kidding? I know they like Prim better than me.
I wait with Peeta, whose back has healed considerably over the last month.
"Are you worried about her?" I ask, fiddling with the hem of the dress that Cinna forced me to wear.
"No. I know she'll be fine. Besides, she doesn't have to convince the Districts of her love, so it'll probably be a bit easier for her," Peeta says.
"Still…after Gale died, she's been a little bit…off," I say.
"Prim is strong. She'll be fine," Peeta comforts.
"I know," I sigh.
Prim has locked herself in her room once on the train. Effie looks at the schedule and huffs, "Primrose must get out of her room soon! We are on a tight schedule!"
"I'll get her," Cinna volunteers.
"No, I'll get her," I say, grabbing Peeta's hand and going to Prim's room.
I knock on Prim's door before going into it without permission.
"What do you want?" Prim sighs.
"It's almost time to go," I say.
"No," she answers.
"No?" I ask, wondering why.
"No. I'm not going to District 11," Prim says.
"Actually, you are. Come on," I say, grabbing one hand while Peeta grabs the other. We pull her off of the bed and drag her to her prep team.
In District 11, there's a heavy air. People are afraid of something. Probably me. I was a cause of death for people. Prim makes a small speech, not really knowing the District 11 tributes. Then, we have a small dinner and leave. That's how it is in most Districts. Except for 8.
A/N: Yay! I'm on vacation after sitting in a car for 5 hours! So it may be a while before I update. After I get back, I also have standardized testing, so that's another week before I can update. See you in two weeks!
