I get up early to take a shower. When I get out, I curl my hair and dress in the clothes Johanna laid out for me, put in my contacts and go downstairs. Everyone is down there already, eating breakfast. Dad didn't bother make me eggs and bacon because he knows I stick to my fruit. I get my smoothie and eat my fruit.
"Brainless, you can walk in heels right?" Johanna asks. I look at her. "Yeah, I've decided I want to call you Brainless. You can walk in heels?"
"Yes."
"Good, put these on instead of the vans." She hands me some wedges. I put them on and finish my breakfast. She switched my backpacks last night, too. It's just a white Jan Sport one. I go upstairs and brush my teeth after cleaning up my mess.
"Alright, ready to go?" Peeta asks after I pack my lunch.
"Yeah…"
"Don't be nervous. You are beautiful, remember that." Johanna says. "Now let's go."
…a…
"Keep your head high. When you catch people looking at you, smile and wave, got it?" Jo asks. I nod. We walk into the building. Glimmer is of course standing right there.
She looks at me and sighs irritably. "My plan didn't work. Why the hell are you still alive?"
"Because I haven't died yet," I reply.
She stares at me. "Why the fuck are you talking to me?"
"Because you asked me a question…" I reply, and I pretend to sound confused.
"Why the fuck are you talking back to me?"
"Because that's how conversation works. You see, when someone speaks to someone else, you are supposed to reply. See?" I nudge Peeta. "Hey, what's up?" there wasn't a single trace of rudeness in my voice.
"Nothing…" he looks like he's trying not to laugh.
I look back at Glimmer and smile. "You'll learn with due time hon," I pat her arm and walk off to my locker. My groups of friends follow me.
"Holy fuck," Johanna whispers. "I didn't even do that good on my first try."
"Hey Peeta," Glimmer walks over to us, and I see her glare at me. "You're really sexy." She grabs his arm. "Do you want to be my new boyfriend?"
Peeta's eyebrows rise up into his hairline, and I clench my jaw. I don't know why, but I'm pissed she just asked Peeta out. "Um thanks Glimmer, but no. You see, I already have my eye on another girl."
"Oh." She looks angry. "Okay." She walks away.
"What other girl Peet?" Finn asks. "Why the fuck haven't I met her?"
"You have met her. You met before I did."
"Have we all met her?" I blurt, but I don't turn around. Johanna snickers under her breath and mutters something about how she so knew it.
"Yes. All of you know her." He says.
"Well what does she look like? I want to see her." I turn to face him, and my eyes are probably dark and angry.
He looks like she's going to laugh. "I'll give you two hits, but you probably won't figure it out." He shakes his head.
"I'll do my best." I put my hands on my hips.
Everyone is holding their breath. "She lives with Finnick and she's standing at her locker staring right at me."
I know that was a bit shorter than usual but I had to cut it off there.
Can you guys review? I want to know what you think.
