Katniss P.O.V
My alarm clock goes off at 8:00 and I do my usual routine. I walk my downstairs at 9:30 and I wait for Sam to come downstairs. Like always, 5 minutes later, he emerges downstairs and takes my hand and leads me to the table. We eat our breakfast, then
I go brush my teeth, and we head out. He immediately goes to hand to hand combat and I immediately go to the archery station. Then after 20 minutes I stop practicing immediately. I hurriedly drop the bow and run to the area where Sam is because the
careers walk in. "Sammy!" I whisper yell. "Look!" I continue. Then he stops and we walk to the rope tying station. Soon after, Octavia comes and goes to the knife throwing station and works with axes. Afterwards we do our usual routine, and then head
back upstairs. "Hey sweetheart." Haymitch greets us surprisingly sober and kinda sweet? "Hey Haymitch?" I say curiously. "How was training today?" He asks a bit nervous. "Why do you sound like that Haymitch?" Sam asks worriedly. "Cause someone is
a spy for the careers. That's why they came down early. I thought something had happened. But as it turns out, you guys are perfectly fine." He says then turns to walk away. But before he does, I give him one of the tightest hugs I could muster. "Thank
you Haynitch." "For what?" He asks confused. "For caring about us." I then let him go so he can walk away.
Time Skip: Pre Dinner
Katniss' POV
"How do you love the capital so far?" Haymitch asks pretending that he's Caesar Flickerman. "I love it here. All the colors are so pretty and the food is so delicious." I reply with one of my brightest smiles. "So Katniss? How does it feel being away
from your sister and your boyfriend." He says looking me straight in the eyes. "If I'm being quite honest, it hurts. Every day. I can't stop playing with the locket and promise ring he gave me. People say we're to young to know what love is. But I
don't believe them for one second. I really do love him. And as for Prim, I can't help but feel cold without her in my arms. I miss touching her soft blond and looking into her loving soft blue eyes. I miss my little duck." Once I finish I look down
and tears start flowing like a waterfall out of my eyes. "I'm sorry." I whisper in a small voice. "It's ok. We're all here for you. We know how you feel." He says. My anger is really starting to build up. But this is his job. So I'll try and keep
calm for the sake of getting out of here alive. "Can you tell us about your locker and promise ring?" I become extremely happy and excitedly say, "Of course I can. I would love to." Then I show off everything and explain to Haymitch how I got my "special"
jewelry. I suddenly remember something that Cinna says and I ask, "How do I look in this dress?" I then stand up and twirl. "You look magnificent and adorable. What do you think folks? Am I right?" Haymitch says cheerily while facing away from. Then
I sit back down. "That's it for today Katniss. You did great. Better than Sam did actually. What you're aiming for is being adorable and loving. Time for dinner." Then we head to dinner.
Dinner Table
"So, how'd she do Haymitch?" Cinna ask the sober but normally drunk mentor. "Like you said she would. She did amazing. Knocked it out of the park." The mentor says and takes a bite of his food. "Excellent. Did you remember to ask the question, Katniss?"
The creative designer says. "Of course I did, Cinna. How could I could I forget." Responds the happy girl with the striking grey eyes. "How did you do, Sam?" Katniss asks the blond protector. "Not so great. I kept getting angry. Those questions, they
got to me." The boy says and looks down sheepishly. "Everything will be fine, Sammy. I promise." The little sister he never had says as sweetly as possible while hugging him. He returns the hug while saying, "Thank you, little one." "Hey Haymitch?"
"Yeah Katniss?" "Can we go to the training room tonight?" "Only if Sam agrees." Sam and Haymitch exchange looks and Haymitch says, "Sure. Be careful."
Training Room
Katniss' POV
The first thing I go to is the stations Sam and I go to when everyone is here. I go to the knot tying station, the climbing station, hand to combat, knife throwing, and finally her favorite station, archery. She does better than before and everyone in
the room looks impressed. Which consists of Sam, Octavia, the game makers, trainers, and me. Once were done, we head to the roof. Once there, I go to my favorite spot and I sit and talk to everyone I miss while crying. Especially Peeta. "Hey Peety.
I miss you more and more each day. I know I'm coming back to you and everyone else. I can feel it. I always look at the locker and ring you gave me before everything I do. But good night and sweet dreams. I love you." Once I say this and wipe my tears,
I head back to my room. When I get in there, I change into something more comfortable. Then I look at my locker/ring and touch it before snuggling under the covers and going to sleep.
