OMG GUYS I AM SO SORRY FOR THE HIATUS. It's summer here in our country and I was enjoying my time so I kind of...slacked off. EHE, but not only that! I had such a bad case of writers' block...really bad especially at the...WEDDING CHAPTER! So sorry if this chapter will disappoint you.

You guys would see a whole new side of Johanna :D

I've finally took notice :3

Gah, I need to find myself a storyboard partner, my brain has gone dead XD

To make things a little interesting, I shall put 3 facts each about me at the end of the chapter and the following chapters to come (2 more chapters to go baby!)

AND NO, I DO NOT HAVE A BOYFRIEND THAT'S WHY I WAS HOLDING SOME KIND OF HIATUS. Hmph. lol. (reply to 'sammycheese' a guest btw)

Do you think I'm stalling now? Well guess what, I kinda am :3 *insert cheeky grin here*

KATNISS POV FTW!

Is it really happening? Is this finally the day where I... would finally get rid of the name 'Everdeen' and replace it to 'Mellark'

I wake up feeling strange in a good way. Even though our wedding is about 7 hours away from nine o' clock, I could feel the butterflies already forming in my stomach. "Early wedding jitters" Effie says in her usually annoying high voice.

Looking over to my left, is Peeta, still sleeping, which I find it rather strange. Events like these, Peeta would surely wake up early in the morning and start making breakfast which I'll normally wake up to the smell.

These past few days it's been different. "Oh well." I shrug.

Wait. It's 9am already, doesn't that mean...? "Oh, shit!" I freak.

I look over to Peeta, slightly hesitating to wake him up but, argh, the hell with it! I grab Peeta's shoulder and shake quite viciously "Good morning sunshine!" I coo to him.

He looks at me with sheer confusion and asks, "What...ugh...what time is it?" He looks at the alarm clock next to him and it read 9:06am. "Katniss, we got to go!"

He rushes to get his pants as I slightly laugh at our silliness. Why are we like this? Well, we got prepping up to do with Effie at 9:30 at the Justice Building and you know Effie and her time. You know exactly how she is.

I scramble to get dressed though we know that we're just gonna use something else but do you guys really want us to go to Effie only wearing our sleepwear? Tch, hell no.

9:15am "Katniss! Let's go!" Peeta says quite frank.

I wouldn't blame him though, the last time Effie gave us a lecture about punctuality it was sheer horror.

"We're here! We're here!" We barge into the Justice Building panting as if we ran a marathon.

"Oh! Just in time, brilliant!" Effie says with her usual tone. "Okay prep teams!" she claps in a ordering manner to give it more effect, "Do your best and make sure they.." She stops again as she points with slight distaste on her face as she points at our sweatpants, "...Look brilliant!" she says with pure enthusiasm.

"There will come a time, where this would be all over." I muttered to myself while Octavia snickers behind.

I go through the list of who-is-who once again making sure if hey got it right as I wait to dry after they put me in the solution that temporarily reduces sweat and hair growth.

The Ever Awaited Wedding of:

Peeta Mellark & Katniss Everdeen

Maid of Honor: Johanna Mason

Best Man: Haymitch Abernathy

Bridesmaids: Annie Cresta, Effie Trinket, Mrs. Everdeen and Octavia

Flower Girl: Aequoreas "Aqua" Odair

Groomsmen: Gale Hawthorne, Flavius and Beetee

Ring bearer: Rory Hawthorne

I remember how me and Peeta had such a hard time who's gonna be who in this list when everyone who was supposed to be...were practically dead.

Prim and Rue could've been part.
Finnick could've been part.
Cinna could've been part.
Dad...could've been part.

"Katniss! Get down here!" Octavia's voice echoes through. "We only have 4 hours left! Where are you?"

"Coming!" I sigh. I'm excited and all but, I just miss everyone.

I open the door to the 'makeup' room and my eyes just widen at the amount of make up products already spread out around the desk.

I make my way through, reading some of the brands as I pass by, MAC, L'Oreal, Zalora, pronouncing it was hard enough.

And it all happens again. Trimming of my eyebrows, complaining, putting on make-up, more complaining, Effie telling me to act my best. Well, no shit, more complaining and finally, putting on my dress.

"Beautiful! Just beautiful." Effie says. Her eyes glisten with tears a little as we shared a comfortable silence. "Ah." Snapping back to reality. "Oh, c'mon dear, today's your-oof."

Believe it or not. I hugged her. "Thanks, Effie." I said. I could feel her squirm but slightly relaxes after a while.

"Well dearie, it's been quite...a crazy ride with you guys." Effie says while she looks at her wristwatch. "Gosh, Katniss, we need to go!"

She quickly grabbed my hand and dashed..well I mean, power walked outside of the building and into the car, being careful not to mess up my hair.

Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale- "Johanna! I need Johanna here now!" I shout. Nerves are taking over me, What the hell, "Johanna get over here!" I shout again.

"Hello there my little sweet cheeks." Johanna said. "Guessing you need some 'girl' talk before the wedding starts eh?"

My breath hitched in the middle of my throat, slowly, I nod. "Johanna..do you think what I'm doing is right?" I asked,

"Well, of course Katniss, what are you talk-"

"Are we moving to fast? Will we even get to still see you guys? I probably not even good enough, I can't even cook properly, Oh, I don't know, What if we-"

"PLEASE SHUT UP FOR ONE SECOND." Johanna exclaimed.

I gulped. I took a breath one last time and queuing Johanna to go on.

"Look." She said looking at me straight in the eye. Her serious face not even faltering. "You and Peeta...share a relationship deeper than what all of us can comprehend. But me.." Johanna took a moment to compose herself. "When I had my first relationship, everyone surrounded us nothing but rejection." I winced, though, still not exactly understanding where this is going. "In result, we doubted each other, we couldn't tell anything to each other anymore. Our faith to each other, wavered." She said wiping a small tear forming.

I still don't get it though. "Oh. I'm so sorry."

She looked at me with a smirk playing on her features, "Okay, what I'm saying is, shouldn't you be wedded surrounded by joy?" Johanna said.

All pressure was lifted from my shoulders as my heart lightened from what she said. "Thanks Johanna, I can't believe I'm saying this but..you're the best." I said.

"Places everybody! The wedding is about to start! Ms. Katniss Everdeen, Effie is calling you now!" Some random person shouted.

"Well, looks like it's time sweet heart." Haymitch passed by with a thumbs up.

I made my way to Effie, now, confident thanks to Johanna. "Oh dear, here's your bouquet, and don't forget...smile...for Peeta." She said waving goodbye.

My bouquet, is absolutely..takes me back to memory lane. It consists of primroses, of course, those onion looking flowers that Peeta gave me years back and...Dandelions. My favorite.

Well, I guess...This is it. This is the day where I would proudly wear, the last name...Mellark.
