"There is always going to be that one girl who is prettier than you. You just need to find that one boy who doesn't care." -Unknown.
"Up and out of bed sweetie." Brianna's high pitched voice bounces around my room.
With a grunt I get up and walk into the shower. When I get in there I find so many different buttons I play with them till I get a warm shower. When I am done I get into the clean clothes and head to the dinning room to eat my breakfast.
"Morning" I greet when I get into the dinning room. I sit in the seat beside Glimmer and shovel food on my plate.
"Morning Marvel. We are going to be in the capitol soon. So I want you guys to be presentable. Then you will be in the hands of your stylists. You do what they say. Okay?" Says Gloss.
"Yes." Me and Glimmer mutter. You don't want to get on Gloss's bad side he can be a real ass.
"Oh look. We are arriving now!" Squeals Brianna while clapping her hands together. God she can be so annoying.
I get up out of my seat and go up to the window. The whole train cart grows dark as we pass through a tunnel. Towards the Capital where I will be guaranteed an early death. The train cart grows lighter as we grow nearer to the end. I hold my breath when the train station comes to view. I can see all different kinds of wigs bouncing up and down as the capital people cheer louder and louder as the train comes to a stop.
I run my hand through my hair and let a huff of air. The train doors slide open and Brianna exits first followed by our mentors and Glimmer. I am the last to go out. When I step out of the door I plaster a playboy smirk on my face. All the girls try to grab my arms and legs but a line of peacekeepers top them from doing so. I only want one girl and one girl to like me like that. Katniss.
"Ahh!" I shout as the last wax strip is peeled off of my now hair less legs. I don't know why they are waxing my legs I am a guy for crying out loud!
"Sorry sweetie that was the last one." says one of the capitol freaks.
"Well that wasn't too hard your were already handsome after all." says another freak.
"Thanks" I say.
"No problem. We will go get your stylist now" She says and leaves the room with the other two following close behind.
I sit in the room alone and think of my plan for the games.
I will protect Katniss I have nothing to go back to she has her sister to go back to. What is this girl doing to me?
Where is the blood thirsty career I was trained to be? All because of one girl? But she is not any other girl Marvel. She's beautiful, smart- I am cut off from my thoughts by a lady in a tight pink dress and a bright blue wig that looks a lot like cotton candy.
"Hello I am charlotte." She says.
"Hello." I say back because she must know my name.
"Well I want you to dress in this." she says handing me a black bag.
When I step out of the changing room I see I am dressed in a black tuxedo. This must be because of our districts are from luxury. When I go outside I see that glimmer is dressed in a tight fitting white dress it looks like its not comfortable because of how exposed she is in it. I walk past her and head to our chariot. I step up into it and Glimmer follows behind.
When the chariots start to move we are the first to go. I put on my most charming smile I could muster and start waving and blowing kisses. The crowd goes crazy and I swear I see a couple woman faint. Ha! I was known for being a huge flirt at school. But I never really cared for the girls like I care for Katniss.
Then the crowd goes quiet but burst out in screams "Katniss" "District 12" I look up to see Katniss on the screens she is on fire literally! But I can't help but see how much the flames bring out her face. She's just... breathtakingly beautiful. No words can describe how beautiful she is.
"District 12 scum is taking our sponsors!" Glimmer whisper yells over the cheering of the crowd.
I feel like I need to stick up for Katniss but I cant do that right now. How dare she call Katniss scum? I will get her back.
Our chariot stops for snow to present his speech. I just tune most of it and just catch the end of his speech "May the odds be ever in your favour." He says his snake like eyes casting over us tributes. Then our chariot is pulled to where we would meet our mentors.
When Glimmer and I get off the chariot we are congratulated on our performance but I don't listen I watch Katniss. Then a elbow hits me in the ribs and I turn to see gloss standing there.
"Yes?" I ask.
"Come we are heading upstairs." he says and I look one last glance towards Katniss to see that she was looking at me I send a flirty wink her way and walk after Gloss.
That night I sleep knowing tomorrow I am going to work up the nerve to talk to Katniss.
