Ch. 4
Katniss P.O.V.
We all head off to the running track and prepare to run. Coach Brutus shouts, "Here are the rules. No pushing or pulling. You have to run around the track once." We all nod our heads. Coach Brutus says, "K on the count of three. ONE… TWO… THREE… GO!" We all take off running. All the girls are in the lead so far. Then all of a sudden I see a flash of blond hair. I noticed its Peeta. Now I'm mad nobody is ever as fast as us. I start running really fast and I close my eyes and keep running. When I open them I noticed that I passed everyone by far. But Peeta is coming up close. Finally he passes me but then I gain speed and pass him. We keep going like that until we see the finish line where we put all our energy into passing each other and getting to the finish line first. After we go through the finish line we collapse on the floor. I go to turn my head and tell him good job. But, I didn't notice we were so close together. We both turned our head at the same time and our noses were brushing and there was only a centimeter in between our lips. My breath hitches. I get to have a closer look at his eyes and they mesmerize me so much. Someone clears their throat in the background and we both turn to look at the same time. The whole football team, Coach Brutus, and the girls are all grinning like idiots. I finally say, "So... Who won?" Coach Brutus, "Well it was a close tie but in the end I have to say the girls won." All of us girls turn to each other. We say, "We told you we were going to bet you guys!" All of a sudden Glimmer the school's most popular girl comes walking out of the building and see us. She walks over to Peeta and says, "Hey sweetie!" She sees how close I and Peeta are and shoots me a glare. She gets up on her tippy-toes and gives Peeta a passionate kiss. After a few minutes they pull away looking satisfied. She shoots me a smirk. "Gotta go see you latz." As she walks past me she bumps me. I get so mad I grab her hair and knock her down. She suddenly gets a frightened look in her eyes. But replaces it with a smirk. I reply, "Ya keep smirking. But you know how good I am with weapons and pranks Glimmer. Oh and also remember I can do everything you can't do. The only thing you can do is be a slut, a bitch, dress yourself up like a Barbie doll, and how to put make-up on." I get off of her. "Oh and just so you know I hope Peeta sees the real you." Glimmer sits there shocked on the floor. I look up and notice Coach Brutus, the girls, all the football players, and Peeta watching me, some with shock and some with amused and happy grins. I just walked to the gym and said, "Are you guys coming to finish competing?!" The girls looked at me with grins and we walked to the gym. We went and changed into a tight exercise shirt and tight exercise booty shorts. We then walk back out and all the football players start wolf whistling. We go and get the weapons we all like to use. I am bow and arrows, Johanna are axes, Clove is knives, and Foxface is spears. We all go back to the middle of the room and wait for the boys. After they come out and have their weapons. I notice that Peeta is spears, Cato is swords, Gale is bow and arrows, and Thresh has a curved sword in his hand. Coach Brutus says, "You have to be able to get bulls eyes for all the throwing weapons and for the other weapons you have to be able to get all the hits in the right places. You have 10 seconds." We all nod. "On your mark... get set… GO!" I start shooting from a 50 mile radius. I keep moving along I don't look to see if I got all of them on bulls eye. I finish before everyone else. Then Clove finishes. Then Johanna. And then everyone else. I look at all my targets and I am so proud that I got them all in. I look at everyone else and everyone else got the same. But I see everyone looking at me again. All the football team members have a look of shock on their face. Coach Brutus has a smirk. And all the girls are grinning. This time I finally snap, "WHAT!?" Coach Brutus says, "You finished in 6.5 seconds." All of us girls says, "So who won?!"
"The group that won is…"
