Chapter 4: Everything is so new, I hate it.
Earney then walks into the train cart Joe and I are sitting in. We both go deathly quiet. "So, I heard you two were talking". Oh god I really should be more careful at what I say out loud. "Well good for you getting to know each other better." Oh thank god. "Well Evanjaline your quarters are over here opposite to Joseph's." We are still both very quiet. "Well?" Joe and I both look at each other and as if planned say "ok" looking towards Earney. We both start burst out in laughter which is a change I haven't been able to smile all day. Earney then takes us to our rooms. He says we can do anything we want while we're waiting but we have to be at supper in two hours. I decide to get changed wearing my reaping clothes makes me feel depressed but I keep my hair pin in I still want to grasp all that's left of mother.
This place is way too fancy for me. Curtains, bows, sparkly things I don't even know the name of and silk pillow covers all without very much use to me. Ech, its despicable how much the capitol people under appreciate food, water and shelter. God I hate them I hate them all. After I get changed I go straight over to the other side of the hall visiting Joe.
The way Earney says Joseph is horrendous with his capitol accent. God I hate him. Joe is sitting on his bed barely realizing that I have come in, day dreaming. Suddenly he snaps back to the real world, stares straight at me and asks "So how are we going to be able to 'defy the Capitol'?" I come and sit down next to him clueless as a district 12 resident trying to use a phone (whatever that means) "uhhhhh…" I give an 'I dunno' face to Joe "Well with me I don't plan these kind of things they just come when I am about to do them." I say. Joe looks at me nervously. "God." He says. I start to do that thing where you blow the top bits of your hair out of your face. "Wait a second" Joe then tells me a plan that could either work or ruin us. "Are you sure?" I ask "It will be very risky." "I know" Joe answers "but it's all I've got" by now it should be about time that supper is ready "come on supper should be almost ready."I tell Joe. We both walk out to find a table with Earney Trinket and the Mayor sitting at it. "Come on, remember to not fill yourself to up there is many servings to come." Eh I hate that stupid accent. Joe and I both come and sit at the table. The mayor and Earney both scoff down as much as they can using as much table manners as they can. God these Capitol people never having to work for anything. Joe and I on the other hand stuff our faces into the meal having never seen this much food on one platter before we think better mot waste any.
But after the first four courses our stomachs can't comprehend this much food so I end up running out of the room begging for the toilet, Joe as I can see can just keep it down. He then excuses himself from the table and comes help me with my throwing up. I can just see Earney's smug face saying "I told you so" but of course I can't be sure he would actually do that. Joe holds back the frizzy bits of hair from getting into the toilet. Once I've finished he gives me some tissues to wipe my face. I do then thank him for helping. I rinse out my mouth of the residue puke. I haven't thrown up in at least 2 years because there has been nothing to throw up. Joe stays until every last little bit of residue is gone. I've noticed that Joe and I are a natural team. I like him. Not like him like him of course… but he is nice. I then smile at Joe and hug him. Then go to my bedroom and change and sleep restlessly.
Authors note: So guys I need you to review some ideas at what the plan could be in the story. I want to make it have something to do with the district twelve thingy (the three finger kiss and put your arm forward thing) so I can add its origins in.
