OH MY GOODNESS... Apologies for the long time no update... I had other stories going on at another website (wattpad, yes, it's the coolio wattpad). Anyways, so sorry about this :( And I honestly have no idea when the next update would be...

Love, Buttercup

And please, review, and favor and follow. Thank you!


Kind girl's little sis POV:)
"I'll see you tomorrow, Prim!" Tiara waved goodbye and I walked back home. I dropped my bag off and talked to my dear kitty, Buttercup.
"Buttercup, do you miss Katniss?" I asked in friendly way.
Buttercup growled loudly accompanied by an unfriendly hiss.
"Oh don't be like that Buttercup! She's my dearest sister!" I frowned unhappily. Katniss still threatens to cook him so I guess it's not his fault…
"Prim?" Mom called from the kitchen.
"Yes?" I answered.
"Would you mind popping to the Mellarks?"
"Sure! I'll be on my way!"
"Thanks Prim!" I waved good-bye to mom and walked towards Peeta's house. Gosh I wish Katniss were back! Katniss could do everything basically. She's smart, she can collect berries, but does she only collect berries in the forest or does she do something else? I know for sure she's not only there for Peeta and the berries…
I knocked on the Mellarks' door.
"Hello sweetie!" Mrs./Dr. Mellark opened the door.
"Hi Dr. Mellark!"
"What bought you here?"
"Mom says I should just pop over."
"Oh that's nice of you to come for a short visit! Come on in! Isn't it too cold just standing outside?"
"Um, it's not that bad. Katniss and I are used to it."
"Standing outside in the cold isn't good for you health. You better come in."
"Of course I will." So I kicked off my shoes and walked inside the Mellark mansion. Peeta's still got the best house ever.
"So Prim, there's something I need to tell you." Mrs. Mellark suddenly turned serious.
"Yes? What is it?" I looked at her and asked.
"Actually… I told your mom to tell you to come over."
Oh no. Something bad happened.
"Why did you want me to come over?"
"It's about your sister and my son. Their relationship isn't that… serious… right?"
"No, no, no. It's not that serious. They wouldn't even be touching each other when I'm around! Or Leeva and Jed!"
"Leeva told me Peeta was with Katniss when Katniss was asleep that night she recovered from the, um, super emotional fainting process."
"Katniss never told me about that. I know that Katniss is hiding some sort of secrets from me, but she'll never tell me. I have no idea why she's always in the forest."
"I asked Peeta a few times what Katniss's always doing in the forest, and he always reply: nothing really."
"I know that Katniss's got to be doing something that could support our family."
"Prim, how about this. You try and figure how serious their relationship is, and I'll try and dig out what your sister is doing in the forest."
"Alright. We shall do that."
"Deal?"
"Deal. I don't want my sister or my so-called cousin be harmed."
"Right. Being in a status of a doctor, I don't want anyone to get harmed."
We grinned at each other. Wow. So weird doing this with a professional doctor.

Kind girl POV:)
"Fancy eating at the grill tonight?" Peeta whispered slightly by my right ear.
"'Course! Will we be on time for the fireworks though?"
"Yes we're going to be on time. Don't worry Love."
"We're in public right now, so you're my cousin."
"That's great. Yes I'm your cousin."
"Thank you." I sighed hoping Peeta won't forget about his rules of being Mr. Leblanc. He's such a clumsy sweetheart…
"Katniss! Does Prim have a phone?" Clove ran up to me, dumping Cato behind us.
"Prim? No, she doesn't. Remember, we don't have that much money." I reminded her in a friendly way.
"Right. I remembered now. Sorry if I brought up an unhappy conversation…"
"No, don't worry about it." We settled into our seat in the restaurant and I started looking through the menu.
Appetizers, soups, salads, main dish, side dish, drinks, desserts… How many types of fancy food does the Capitol have?
"Kat, are you having trouble reading a menu?" Clove asked nicely as Cato chuckled.
"No! I'm not having trouble reading the menu, and Cato don't chuckle," I narrowed my eyes and stared at him. Cato pretended that he hadn't done anything as he read the menu quietly.
"Just ignore Cato. We know him," Clove whispered quietly.
"Yeah we know him. Right. You know him," I rolled my eyes as Clove grabbed my phone.
I freaked out and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Adding other people's numbers, duh." Clove continued typing on my phone. A few seconds later she gave it back. "There. You now have Foxface, Glimmer, Cashmere and a few others' phone numbers."
"Um, thanks I guess," I replied.
"You're welcome, country chic," Clove grinned sneakily.
"Country chic? New name for Katniss, aye?" Peeta suddenly jumped in our conversation.
"Yeah country chic. But not exactly a chic," Clove replied.
"Really?" I groaned as the server came towards our table.
"Are you ready to order?" She asked in the awkward Capitol accent.
"Yes, we're ready," Peeta answered, then he added a bunch of food that I really have no idea what they are.
"Sounds great! I'll be right back," She walked away and poured some bright colored liquid into four cups and walked back.
"One for you, you, you, and you," You, you, you… She should know saying all those 'you's isn't necessary.
"Thank you," The four of us spoke in the same time and the server walked away.
"Kat!" A voice called from far away in the restaurant.
Who's voice is that?
"Katniss! Hey Katniss! It's Madge!" Madge shouted.
"Oh! Hey Madge! What brought you into this restaurant?" I asked as she walked to our table.
"Gale took me here. He asked me out so, yeah! So excited!" Squealing in a high-pitched voice like a little mouse.
"You two dating?" Clove asked excitedly.
"Yes! Ohmigosh! I'm so happy!" Madge squeaked again.
"I thought you liked my cousin," I pointed out.
"No, because I found out Gale's really nice too, and Freddy already has a girlfriend," Madge stopped squeaking and went back to her normal voice.
"I'm glad you understand that. Because it would be really difficult for Freddy to, yeah, you know," I sighed even though I'm really happy in my heart, knowing there are no more competitors that I need to compete with for Peeta.
"So Katniss, now you're the only one that's not dating anyone!" Madge frowned.
"Madge, I'll be fine. I don't have time to consider about love, and blah," I lied.
"You need a lot of time to build up an intense relationship you mean. I understand. Anyways, I'm going back to Gale. See you sometimes!" Madge skipped happily towards her far away table.
"Kat, I ordered stuff for you so you wouldn't get confused," Peeta smirked.
"Is that actually the reason that made you ordered my food? You're nice," I frowned.
"No, you know I'm just joking."
"Great. What if I don't believe you?"
"Then you better believe me!"
I stared at Peeta. Clove and Cato looked at Peeta and me, laughing. Peeta freakily smiled that made me shiver.

"Lamb stew and plums," The server came and said.
"Over here," Peeta patted my table and the server put the plate down. The server walked away.
"What's that?" I asked.
"Lamb stew and plums, didn't you hear the server?" Cato asked.
"I did. I did indeed," I grabbed a knife and got ready to cut the meat.
"Wait!" Clove quickly grabbed my arm.
"What?" I frowned.
"Let me practice my cutting skills," Clove then grabbed the knife out of my hand and chopped the meat to tiny pieces.
"There," Clove stabbed the knife into one of my plum. The juice of the plum squirted everywhere on the plate.
"Look what you just did! You murdered… a plum…" Peeta and Cato laughed while I gasped loudly to Clove. Thinking back about what I just said, it sounds stupid and it sounds just like what Effie said to me on the train about that mahogany.
"Oh too bad, it's still eatable," Clove grinned as her food came. She grabbed three fries casually and stuffed them into her mouth.
I grabbed my fork and stabbed into the broken plum. It still tastes good. I stabbed my fork into a piece of lamb, stuffed it in my mouth, the hardness was just perfect.
Peeta and Cato's food came a bit later than ours, and as soon as they started eating our dinner time became very silent.
"Girls, eat faster," Peeta complained.
"We can't," Clove sighed and patted her full stomach.
"Too full Clover?" Cato grinned.
"Yeah, need some help," Clove pushed the plate towards Cato.
"Katniss, what about you?" Peeta asked.
"I'm ok. You can have some too, if you want," I smiled and kept eating.
"No thanks, we still have dessert, but we're taking them to the fireworks."
"Why didn't you say that earlier?" Clove and me groaned loudly.
"I thought I should've left that as a surprise!"
"That's great Peeta, thanks," Clove rolled her eyes and stretched in her seat.
"Anyways, I think we should get going," Peeta stood up and walked towards the nearby server.
He walked back and announced we're officially leaving. Clove and I grabbed our bags and followed Peeta and Cato out of the restaurant.
"It's chilly outside…" I shivered and snuggled nearer to Peeta.
"Here," Peeta wrapped his arm around my shoulders to keep me warm.
"How sweet! Too bad Clove's not cold enough for me to do that," Cato frowned cheekily.
"What's that nonsense? Who said I'm not cold?" Clove nudged him.
"So you just want me to carry you all the way to the clearing for the fireworks?"
"No. I'm just saying you can't just assume that I'm cold."
"I didn't say that."
"Yes you did. You said Clove's not cold enough for me to do that."
"You two stop the fight alright?" Peeta pulled the fighting couple apart. I could still see the lightning connecting their angry eyes.
"C'mon Katniss, let's keep going," Peeta and me kept walking. I wasn't sure if I wanted to turn my head back to see what the couple is doing.
"Seems legit," Peeta told me.
"What seems legit?" I asked, confused.
"Clove and Cato."
"Why do they seem legit?"
"They just fought and they made out right after they fought."
"How is that legit?"
"Ugh… Never mind. Katniss doesn't understand."
"You're nice," I rolled my eyes and kept walking.
I knew I shouldn't have turned my head to see what was going on.

(Yeah if I were Katniss, I wouldn't have want to turn around either…)

Something buzzed. Something that's touching me buzzed, and it made me shake.
"Peeta?" I shuddered.
"What is it?" Peeta asked.
"Something on me is buzzing…"
"Probably your phone. Someone obviously texted you."
I grabbed out my phone and yes, Peeta's right.

-Hey! What's up?

A text from Glimmer Rambin

-Not much.

I texted slowly.

-Where are you guys right now? Towards the firework?

She texted that in a few seconds. Amazing. I'm so slow.

-On our way to the fireworks. Where are you and Cash?

-Shopping :D We're going to shop until 1:00am XD SOOOO FUN! Cash and me are hanging out with Cash's boyfriend Marvel and her brother Gloss

-Awesome! I'll talk to you later!

-Ttyl!

What's ttyl?
"Peeta, what does ttyl mean?" I inquired.
"Ttyl? It stands for talk to you later. There's a lot more you'll need to learn Kat," Peeta answered.
We kept walking for a while without any talking. Although we weren't talking, there're still many interesting sound that come from across the street.
"Peeta?" I broke the silence.
"Hmm?" He looked at me.
"What are across the street?"
"Many shops, restaurants, and houses."
"How big is the Capitol?"
"It's not too big, it's just fancy."
"Oh. Answer satisfied," I grinned.
"You're so cute Kat…"
"Why does that question make me cute?"
"You just… barely know anything… And hey, keep up your pace or else we'll never make it to the fireworks on time."
"Fine. Race you there?"
"No, we're running together."
"But you're one of the slowest runners I've ever known!"
"Stop whining, we're running together. Remember Effie said to stay to someone that's been to the Capitol more than once."
"Fine…" I trailed off the sentence, grabbed Peeta, surprising him, and dashed towards the so-called clearing.
Technically it should be a clearing, but the clearing is full of people, and artificial colors.

"Clove! Cato!" I shouted as Peeta and I sat down on the clearing, ready for the fireworks.
"Where are you two?" Clove's arrogant voice rang through the clearing.
"We're here! At the very front!" I shouted.
Peeta and me turned our head. I saw Clove come rushing towards us along with Cato.
"Are the fireworks starting any moment now?" Clove asked, panting. Since when did Clove learn to pant?
"The fireworks should be starting sometime soon. Oh! The first one!" Peeta pointed at the sky. Brilliant colors of red, purple, and yellow layered in the dark night sky. I squinted my eyes and looked at the fireworks, clear enough, the fireworks spelt the word 'Panem'. The first few faded and they shot a few more up, purple, blue, and green spelling the word 'Capitol'. The words faded and there's just plain fireworks that made images in the sky for the rest of the night.
"Wasn't it brilliant?" Clove squealed excitedly.
"Definitely my dear," Cato wrapped his arms around her neck and his hand landed on her shoulders.
"Where should we go now? It's like one o'clock at night, right?" I asked.
"Well, Katniss, why don't you take out your phone and check the time?" Clove suggested.
"Good point, I shall do so," And I took out my phone, checking the time. 12:59am right on. I showed the rest of them the time.
"Katniss, you see, Glimmer texted you, so why don't you text her back?" Clove swiped on the text messages. At the end I texted her: Just finished watching fireworks, amazing!
Glimmer didn't text me back, hmm, she's probably sleeping.
"How about just resting in our rooms then? I'm honestly tired," Clove yawned and rested her head on Cato's shoulder.
"Clove and I'll go back to our rooms, you two can do whatever you want," Cato waved goodbye at me and headed back to the hotel with Clove by his side.
"Any ideas on what we should do?" I asked Peeta, still on the same spot.
"How about star gazing? I know a great place for star gazing," His warm smile appeared once again…
"Sure! Take me to it," I commanded him. He laughs a bit and placed his arms around my waist and headed off to the opposite direction of the hotel.
"So, Peeta, where are we going exactly?" I asked, while walking.
"The prettiest and most romantic place in the whole Capitol. The flower garden at the top of the major Capitol mall, the Star Gazer Mall," He then explained the garden to me. Apparently the garden has a huge lake on top of it, it has a small cave beside the lake that is covered by a waterfall on half of it. It has a maze built out of bushes, and on top of the lake there's a huge white bridge embroidered with red hearts.
"How many people would be here, usually?" I asked.
"Quite a few in the summer, but barely anyone come here right now. Especially at night. I'm actually positive that we're going to be the only ones here," He then called the elevator.
"So, is it like a secret place?" I asked as he guides me into the elevator.
"You can say that," he laughs, "Not a lot of people know about this place."
The door then opened slowly and he held the door for me to get out first.
"Welcome to the garden of star gazers," He grinned at me. I took a brief view of the garden. It didn't look like a place for star gazing at all however.
"Are you sure star gazing would work here?" I asked him.
"It would definitely not work here, but trust me, it'll work in a place that I know." He then urged me to walk forwards. The flowers around are amazingly beautiful, and they looked fake, but the scent doesn't smell fake at all. He walked me onto the white bridge he was talking about. We walked together, making fun of each other for a while until we reached a waterfall, covering half of a cave.
"We're going to go through the cave. It's a very dark tunnel, but we'll be fine. They have torch lights that sticks onto the cave wall," He guided me in carefully through the entrance of the tunnel.
"Hop on in the boat, my love," He stepped onto a small rowboat and guided me in.
"You never mentioned that we would be on a rowboat. I thought we were going to walk there!" I gasped with surprise. I would probably not follow him if we were actually walking through the tunnel.
"Oh well, I always leave surprises for you, you know," He shrugged and kept paddling. Well, he does like to give me surprises; it's a known fact.
We kept talking and laughing throughout the journey through the tunnel. How many minutes passed exactly?
"Here we are! Step out of the boat, I'll give you a hand," He jumped out of the boat and lend me his hand. He walked forwards out of the cave accompanied by me.
"Well, this is the perfect place for star gazing in the whole Capitol. Let's enjoy ourselves on this wonderful shore of the ocean of the Capitol!" He announced.
"Wait, how does that work? We were at a very high point in the Capitol before we came down the cave… How does that work?" I questioned.
"The river in the cave is flowing downwards slowly, that's why we didn't feel anything but it's still going downwards. This part of the beach is also hidden. No one else would probably get here even if they traveled down the river," He explained.
"How? Isn't it just the same river?" I asked.
"Um, you probably didn't notice it, but I opened a secret passageway while coming down from the river. There's a handle on the wall that you have to pull down in order to come down to this shore," That's a lot clearer for my stupid brain.
"So, in conclusion, let's enjoy our time on the beach since it took you a while to get down from the cave!" I then ran down the beach and headed to the ocean.


Review? Thanks :)
