A/N: Hey there, NEW CHAPTER! YAY! sorry, my login just would not work today. haha, owww. my legs are sore from taking all of my fitness tests. ughh, i hate fitnnes tests. children, this is what you have to look forward to if you go to high school in Vancouver. Sheesh, BRUTAL! (sorry about my whining, i'm just tired)
Madge's POV: Prim is crying as Rory pleads her to forgive her. Young love is quite sappy, but very cute. I wish Gale would do this for me. But it seems as though he's been drifting away from me, as though he' s got his eye on someone else. And I have an odd feeling that it's a girl who is already in a loving relationship with a sweet, blond haired boy.
Screaming and hitting noises outside start to get louder and louder and louder until I'm forced to get Prim and Rory to hide. Unfortunatelyit's too late. Two muscly boys shove me into the closet, punching me in the stomach as they do so. They take Rory and Prim and shove their hands over their mouths, quieting them. They tie a tight rope over Rory and Prim's hands, and drag them away, all while they kick and scream and struggle to the best of their best abilities. They fail miserably to get of their grasp. I'm dizzy, too dizzy. I open the closet with my trembling hands, fall on my bed, and give way to dizzying blackness.
Lilly's POV: I'm laughing so hard because some of my friends have had a such a funny convo. I'm usually shy, but I always see the better side of things. All of a sudden I'm being turned around by my shoulder and oddly being kissed by a boy. I push away instantly and see it's Rory Hawthorne. I scream as I see my best friend Prim, standing there with glassy eyes. I'm furious, so I turn around and my hand gives way to slap Rory Hawthorne's face.
"YOU IDIOT RORY! YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND, AND SHE'S STANDING RIGHT THERRRE!" I scream, as I shove at him as hard as I can. Prim runs off in the direction of someone's dorm, and slams the door behind her. She was making awful sobbing noises as she ran down the hall. Two boys and a girl are snickering around the corner, but stop abruptly to run in the direction of the outside door, passing us as they sprint down the hall. Unfortunately they aren't fast so one of them bangs into the glass door. I sneer at them. Who just slams into a door? At least they feel no pain because their face is probably numb. Then everyone is silenced as 15 year old Katniss Everdeen and 17 year old Gale Hawthorne walks into the hall poker faced. If not, angry. Completely, definitely, utterly angry. Everyone knows Katniss Everdeen. She's demonstrated all the fitness tests we take in front of the entire school to show us how to do it. And she holds all the records. Down to the last one. the BEEP test, PLANK test, and her best ones, the T-test, SIT and REACH/FLEXIBILITY test and VERTICAL JUMP. She's one of the few straight A students, one of the specially talented people with a bow and arrow, and she has the sweetest boyfriend EVER!
Katniss crosses her arms, and nods to me. I smile. Then she speaks.
"You're Lilliana Winset? Prim's friend?" I swallow slowly, and nod my head. I have a loss for words. She's one of the most successful girls in school, and she's talking to me? I have to admit though, she's kinda oblivious to the admiring glances, and jealous stares she gets. I guess, she saves her emotion for the probably about six or seven people that can make her smile a genuine smile. She nods at Gale Hawthorne who hasn't gone unnoticed either. You can tell by the way the girls whisper about him when he walks by in school that they like him. And don't even get me started onPeeta Mellark. He's sweet, completely down to earth and just down right friendly.
"Lilly, what happened to Prim?" she asks me. She's genuinely concerned for her sister and Rory, and Gale stands beside her, hands shoved in his pocket glaring at Rory. He's gonna get it. I think.
"She saw Rory kissing me, and went off running in that direction." I answer honestly as I point to down the hall. She looks to Gale and exchange a worried-er-awkward glance. She nods back to me and smiles. I realize she's very pretty and she's even more oblivious to the stares around than I thought. I mean, my friends are practically wishing to be just like her. Katniss kneels down and pulls me into a hug. I gladly hug back, and I see Gale is surprised. I guess she doesn't give out hugs often.
"Thank you, Lilly. I'm glad Prim has a friend like you." She mumbles as she strokes my hair. She untangles herself from me and smiles.
"You're welcome. Prim is very lucky, she has you as a big sister. You're very kind, and you are very caring." I say sweetly. Gale smirks, and Katniss smiles back at me shyly.
"She has no idea, the effect she can, does she Lilly?" Gale asks me. I nod my head in agreement.
"She honestly doesn't." I reply.
