Cato's POV
Today was Clove's first day back at school in a week. She had become quieter and unhappier. She never had a smile on her face anymore. Gloss had destroyed her.
I was going to drive her to school today along with Glimmer, Katniss, Rue and Cashmere. The first house on the way was Clove's. As I drove towards the address she had given me I was shocked to see it was literally just down the road from my house. Getting out the car I saw a curtain at the very top of the house flutter. Suddenly the door opened and a man stood there with a small blonde haired girl.
"Hello sir I'm here to pick up Clove?" I said nervously putting my hands into my jeans pockets.
"Yes she will be right down she struggles on the stairs," he said before the little child ran out, "Jazz come back here!"
The little child ran back inside laughing loudly.
"Sir could I come help Clove on the stairs?" I asked as I heard a thump.
"If you don't mind. I can't really help out. That and she wont let me," he chuckled.
"It's fine i'll go see if she's okay. Sir if you need somethings doing or helping out with anything I'll be glad to help," I said and he motioned me in.
"Thank you Cato. You can call me Carl. Go straight on through she's on the top level of the house," he said pointing towards the stairs for me.
"Thank you Carl," I said before walking up.
As I walked up the stairs I noticed that there was pictures of all three of them all the way up. The first one was Clove on an elephant in India by the looks of it. She looked about six and there was a woman in it next to the elephant who looked almost identical to Clove. I realised with a shock this was Clove's mother.
The next one along was Clove and Jazz as well as the woman and now a man with light brown hair. Clove looked a little older on this one she was around nine. Jazz was sat in Clove's arms and there mum and dad were stood behind them in front of a beautiful house. There was a dog by Clove's feet. It was small but very fluffy and I knew it would become a very big dog perfect for Clove. They all seemed happy on this one and it was nice to see Clove smiling even if it wasn't real now.
"That was the week before the accident we took it because it was my birthday and I had a new dog," I heard from the top of the stairs.
Clove stood there in a light floaty top and jeans. Her makeup was light but she had a dark lipstick on it. As she walked to the next step I saw her face crease in pain.
"Come here," I said walking up to her she laughed slightly as I picked her up.
"Thank you," she whispered as I put her back on the ground.
I smiled at her as she walked towards the kitchen. She looked back and motioned me forward and I followed slowly.
"Be careful with your stomach and shoulder. If you want to come home just ring me," Carl told her and she nodded.
"Careful Clovey," Jazz said running over.
"You too sis," she said ruffling her hair before turning towards me, "lets go then."
I smiled at her as we walked out the front door towards my car. Her face dropped as she saw my car and I laughed.
"I've always wanted one of these cars," she breathed.
It was a Volvo 4x4 and it was black. Quickly she walked over to it and ran her hand over the car.
"You wanna get in?" I asked her and she nodded eagerly.
We walked round to the passenger side then opened the door. Carefully she stepped onto the little step and wobbled slightly. I put my hand on her back to support her and she got into the car her hand flying to her ribs.
"You okay?" I asked and she nodded slightly.
Her top had rose slightly and I could see that her stomach was black, blue and in some places a little yellow. She saw my eyes widen and quickly pulled her top down. I went and got in the other side and smiled at her.
"Who are we picking up next?" she asked me looking at me.
"Katniss. Then Rue, Cashmere, Glimmer," I said and her face dropped.
"Okay. Can we put the radio on?" She asked quietly.
"Of course we can," I said flicking a switch.
Ellie Golding blasted out and a little smile appeared on her face.
"Handle bars, then I let go, let go for anyone. Take me in, and throw out my heart and get a new one. Next thing we're touching. You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning," she sung softly and I smiled.
She had an amazing voice and she sung it perfectly. She looked out the window as the trees passed by.
"Oh, everybody's starry-eyed and everybody glows. Oh, everybody's starry-eyed and my body goes. Whoa oh oh ah ah. Whoa oh oh ah ah. Whoa oh oh," she sung looking back at me.
"Were at Rue's house," I said sad to be interrupting her singing.
Rue quickly ran out the house and opened the back door. She got in behind Clove a huge smile on her face.
"Good morning!" she said in her sing song voice.
"Hey Rue," I said and Clove muttered a quick hello.
"How are you?" Rue asked Clove.
"I'm fine how are you Kangaroo?" Clove asked and Rue giggled.
"I'm great can we have the windows down," she giggled.
I nodded and pressed down the buttons so the windows opened fully.
"Tell me if you get too cold," I told them both and they both nodded.
Suddenly Rue shouted, "I love this song!"
Price Tag was playing on the radio and I laughed then turned it up.
Seams like everybody's got a price. Wonder how they sleep at night. When the sale comes first and the truth comes second just stop for a minute and smile," Rue sang sweetly from the back making me smile.
"Why is everybody so serious acting so damn mysterious with there shades on there eyes and there heels so high they can't even have a good time," I carried on and Rue giggled.
"Everybody look to the left," she sung.
"Everybody look to the right," I said turning my head right.
"Can you feel that yeah we're playing with love tonight," we Both sung before turning towards Clove.
She shook her head but Rue leaned in more. Clove took a deep breath and looked down.
"It's not about the money money money we don't need your money money money. We just wanna make the world dance forget about the price tag," she sung and Rue started to join in.
"Ain't about the cha-ching, cha-ching. Ain't about the ba-bling, ba-bling. Wanna make the world dance. Forget about the price tag," they both sung and I laughed loudly.
"We need to take it back in time. When music made us all unite! And it wasn't low blows and video hoes, am I the only one getting tired?" Clove sung.
We had pulled up outside Glimmers house and suddenly we heard her voice floating towards us through the open windows.
"Why is everybody so obsessed? Money can't buy us happiness. Can we all slow down and enjoy right now? Guarantee we'll be feeling alright," Glimmers voice floated to the car.
The door opened to the left side and Glimmer hopped in. Me and Rue both said good morning to her while Clove just turned away and looked out the window.
"Morning Clovery. Looking a little battered this morning! Did my Gloss finally get bored of you?" Glimmer said leaning forward to whisper it in Cloves ear.
I looked back at her in shock and then looked at Clove. Her eyes had filled with tears and her hand was reaching for the door handle. She pushed open the door and hopped out whimpering in pain.
"Clove, wait," I shouted after her but she had stormed down the street.
Glimmers phone started to ring as she wrapped her hands around my neck and kissed my forehead.
"Get off Glimmer!" I snapped starting the car up going after Clove.
As we turned the corner I gasped at the sight. Marvel was helping Clove into his car and wiped a year off her cheek as she smiled up at him.
I heard Glimmer chatting on the phone in the back but I didn't care.
"Cashmere can get to school now we can just go," Glimmer said and I nodded distracted.
Quickly I pressed the pedal an my car kept forward and over the hill towards school my mind distracted...
Marvels POV
Clove sat in the passenger seat looking out over to my neighbours house. A dull silence set over the car as I thought of how to tell her.
"I'm sorry," I said to her and she looked up.
"How do you know?" She asked her voice shaky.
"I heard Danny boasting about it and then he carried on but before he could finish I punched him," I breathed looking out the windscreen and starting the car.
More tears fell softly down her face and I reached to wipe them away. She flinched then relaxed again.
"What am I going to do Marvel?" She sobbed and I stopped the car.
"You're going to be fine I promise. We're all hear for you. Me especially," I said and she smiled softly up at me.
I looked at her face and tucked her hair behind her ear with my free hand. She coughed and turned away as we pulled into school. Getting out the car I walked round to Clove's side and opened it.
She wiped the last of the tears away from her eyes.
"Thank you," she said taking my hand I had ready to help her get out.
Once she was out I put my arm around her waist. We walked into school together everyone turning to look at us.
"So who do you like?" Clove asked looking up at me and I was shocked.
"Erm I do have my eye on this one girl but I don't think she'll ever like me back," I muttered.
"Who is it?" Clove asked curiously.
"Erm you know Finch. From our Spanish class," I said scratching the back of my head nervously.
Cloves eyes lit up in excitement and I laughed.
"You should come to auditions for the school musical," she said turning towards me as we stopped outside a classroom.
"When are they?" I asked her.
I loved singing and it was the perfect time to get closer to Finch.
"Today at four in the auditorium," Clove laughed before limping into the classroom.
Now all I could think of was Clove and Finch. Finch was beautiful. Her beautiful ginger hair. Beautiful green eyes.
"Marvel over here!" I heard Cato shout breaking me out of my thoughts.
"Coming," I shouted making my way over to him my thoughts breaking away from the two girls.
Clove's POV
*4 o'clock*
I walked into the auditorium next to Rue. We were laughing at the newest rumour about Cashmere that was spreading round school like wildfire. Apparently she had gone to a coffee shop and while there she had bumped into all three guys she was cheating on.
"How could she do that to someone?" I asked Rue.
"Because she's a cold hearted snake," Rue said and I laughed.
Looking round I noticed there was a lot of people here. Glimmer sat at the front and I was shocked to see she was leaning her head on Cato's shoulder. Thresh, Katniss, Gale and Finch were sat talking to each other sat on the steps.
I was really shocked to see Johanna Mason sat on her own at the very far right hand corner alone. Her black hair was covering her face but I could see her eyes darting around the room watching us all. Madge Undersese suddenly walked in with to my surprise Cashmere and Sophia. Sophia was a dumb girl with really light brown hair that fell round her face in ringlets. She thought of things like a five year old would and she was one of the sweetest people when she wanted to be but Cashmere had control over her. Madge was a loud girl who knew everything. Her hair was long reaching the bottom of her back. She was rich as her dad was the mayor and while I lived in the poor part of town she lived in the richest. Then there was Cashmere. She was the biggest cold hearted person I had ever met. The only people she was remotely kind to was Glimmer, Madge and Sophia. They made up the most popular girl group in the schools in the whole of the country we lived in called Panem that was split into fourteen parts. The highest being the Capitol where all four of them lived the lowest being district thirteen. I lived in twelve along with most of the other people here at glee club.
Suddenly Mr Woodcock walked on stage and all our attention turned to him.
"Thank you all for showing up. We shall start with the solos then work our way up in number. So I think we will start with Rue," he shouted and Rue stood up slowly then made her way down to the stage.
"I will be singing Mercy by Hilary Duff," she said to Mr Woodcock who had taken his seat at the front.
"And who would you like to play Rue?" He asked her sitting forward.
"I would like to be a small part like one of the women from the cells block tango or a back up dancer please."
"Off you go then," Sir said leaning back again.
"Can Clove come and sing with me? And can we sing the song Lady Marmalade" Rue asked an I was shocked.
"Of course she can. Clove?" Sir said motioning me down.
I rose and started to walk down ignoring the whispers from the three bitches and Sophia. 'What the hell?' I mouthed at Rue before grabbing a microphone. We moved to the back of the stage and turned out backs on the audience.
"Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, flow sista. Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, go sista," I sung quietly my mind thinking of Cato and Glimmer.
"He met Marmalade down in old Moulin Rouge, struttin' her stuff on the street. She said, "Hello, hey Jo, you wanna give it a go?" Oh! uh huh," Rue sung turning walking up the stage.
"Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya dada. Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya here. Mocha Chocalata ya ya. Creole lady Marmalade," I sung my back still to the others.
"Voulez vous coucher avec moi ce soir. Voulez vous coucher avec moi," Rue sung and I could imagine her doing a little dance.
"He sat in her boudoir while she freshened up," I said turning my hair flying round my face, "Boy drank all that Magnolia wine. On her black satin sheets is where he started to freak!"
"Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya dada. Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya here. Mocha Chocalata ya ya. Creole lady Marmalade," Rue sung as she walked back to the back of the stage while I walked to the front.
"Voulez vous coucher avec moi ce soir. Voulez vous coucher avec moi," I sung turning my hips.
"He come through with the money in the garter belts I let him know we bout that cake straight up the gate uh," Rue sung flicking her hair around, "We independent women, some mistake us for those I'm sayin', why spend mine when I can spend yours."
"Disagree? Well that's you and I'm sorry, Imma keep playing these cats out like Atari
wearing high heel shoes, getting love from the dudes two bad ass chicks from the Moulin Rouge!" I sung loudly.
"Hey sistas, soul sistas, betta get that dough sistas," Rue sung her voice lowering and I smiled a little.
"We drink wine with diamonds in the glass by the case the meaning of expensive taste," I sung dropping to a crouch the same as Rue.
"If you wanna Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya. Mocha Chocalate-a what? Creole Lady. Marmalade. One more time C'mon now," we pushed ourselves forwards on our stomachs then we rolled onto our backs and I winced as my stomach screamed in pain.
"Hey hey hey! Touch of her skin feeling silky smooth," we sat up so our backs were to the audience, "Color of cafe au lait alright made the savage beast inside roar until he cried, more-more-more!"
We turned our heads so we were looking over our shoulders at everyone. We pushed ourselves so we were standing.
"Now he's back home doin' 9 to 5! Sleepin' the grey flannel life," Rue sung turning towards them her hand on her right hip.
But when he turns off to sleep memories creep, more-more-more!" I sung turning so my hand was on my left hip.
"Clove," Rue sung smiling and I sung a quick line of singing.
"Rue," I sung smiling back as Rue sung Lady Marmalade in the background.
"Glee club," Rue sung pointing at them all.
"Hey Hey! uh uh uh uh," I sung loudly.
"Capitol high!" we both sung leaning back and sliding onto our bums.
"Real Lady Marmalade!" we sung carrying on the note as long as we could.
"Girls that was amazing!" Sir shouted as everyone started to clap.
Cashmere was stood opened mouthed at the back and I actually felt a genuine smile coming to my lips. I had not smiled since the incident and I realised how nice it felt again.
"We did it!" Rue shouted flinging herself at me but stopping last minute and giving me a hug.
I laughed a little and Rue smiled.
"Clove I forgot to ask what part you would like," Sir said and I turned to him.
"I would love to be Roxie," I breathed an he smiled knowingly.
"Okay then thank you girls," he said sitting back down.
We walked off stage and towards the seats we had left our bags in as sir shouted, "our next audition is by Johanna."
She walked to the stage her head down as she grabbed the microphone from the stage where me and Rue had left them on the floor Cashmere whispered from behind us, "when do you think the last time she washed her hair was?"
Sophia scolded her then turned back to watch Johanna her eyes wide. I smiled at how she had stuck up for her then I turned back to Johanna.
"I'll be singing the song mean by Taylor Swift and I would like to audition for the role of a small part as well maybe a dancer," she said loudly and as she said the word mean she turned and glare at Cashmere.
"You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me. You have knocked me off my feet again. Got me feeling like I'm nothing. You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard calling me out when I'm wounded. You picking on the weaker man," she sung pointing towards Cashmere.
I smiled at Johanna and she winked back at me.
"You can take me down with just one single blow. But you don't know, what you don't know," she sung walking to the front of the stage and pointing to Glimmer this time.
"Someday I'll be living in a big ol' cityand all you're ever gonna be is mean. Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me and all you're ever gonna be is mean. Why you gotta be so mean?"
I could here the meaning behind Johanna's voice and I couldn't help but feel sorry for her. She only had a few friends and she had been picked on since junior school.
"I bet you got pushed around somebody made you cold but the cycle ends right now. 'Cause you can't lead me down that road and you don't know, what you don't know," Johanna sung and I swear I saw a tear fall down her cheek, "But someday I'll be living in a big ol' city and all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah. Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me and all you're ever gonna be is mean. Why you gotta be so mean?"
"Well done Johanna you have an amazing voice and would be an amazing addition to our glee club not just the musical," sir shouted as me and rue got up and started to clap loudly.
She sent us both a smile then went back to sit in the corner.
"Well then next we have Glimmer and Cato who will be singing I've had the time of my life," Sir said and they made to the stage.
My mouth opened in shock and I felt tears prickling in my eyes. They made there way to the stage Glimmers hair flouncing behind her.
"I will be auditioning for the part of Roxie," she said sending a grin up to me.
"I'll be auditioning for Amos," Cato said looking up at me with hard eyes.
"Excuse me," I said to Rue as I climbed out the row and ran up to the toilets just as I heard them begin to sing.
Looking in the mirror I breathed heavily attempting to hold back the tears. How could he?
That was our first song together now Glimmer was singing it. After all me and Cato had been through because of that song. As I heard them sing the last line I quickly blinked then walked out of the bathroom and returned to my seat. Rue looked at me with a curious face and I shook my head at her.
"That was good," Sir said sounding annoyed, "next we have Cashmere, Sophia and Madge."
The all walked to the stage there skirts swishing as they walked in perfect harmony like they always did. Sophia and Cashmere picked up the two microphones.
"We will be singing say my name by destiny's child," Cashmere said smiling with her pure white teeth.
"I would like to go for the part of Mary Sunshine," Sophia said and we all looked at her surprised.
She passed the microphone to Madge who smiled, "I would like to be Roxie or one of the murderesses."
"And I would like to be Roxie," Cashmere said putting one hand on her hip.
"Say my name, say my name. If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you" if you ain't runnin' game. Say my name, say my name. You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby. Why the sudden change?" Sophia and Madge sung together into a microphone behind Cashmere moving their hips side to side using there free hand to come down on different sides.
"Any other day I would call you would say "Baby how's your day?" But today it ain't the same. Every other word is uh hun, yeah okay Could it be that you are at the crib wit another lady?" She I said pointing to the audience and moving her head to the side as if asking something, "If you took it there, first of all let me say! I am not the one to sit around and be played."
"So prove yourself to me and the girl that your playin.' Why don't you say the things that you said to me yesterday?" The other two sang there voices going quite high, "Say my name, say my name. If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you" if you ain't runnin' game. Say my name, say my name. You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby. Why the sudden change?"
"What is up wit this, tell the truth who you with? How would you like it if I came over wit my clique? Don't try to change it, now see you got to bounce. When 2 seconds ago you said you just got in the house. It's so hard to believe that you were home by yourself. When I just heard the voice, heard the voice of someone else. Just this question, why do you feel you got to lie? You caught up in your game, you cannot say my name," Cashmere sang.
All three of them were doing a small dance routine now and I was looking at Johanna when I noticed she was staring at something. She was staring at Sophia. I blinked a few times then I got it. Johanna liked Sophia.
"I know you sayin' I'm assuming things. Something's goin' down that's the way it seems. Shouldn't be a reason why your acting strange. If nobody's holding you back from me. 'Cause I know how you usually do. When you sayin' everything to me times 2. Why can't you just tell the truth? If somebody's there tell me who," the two sang sweetly again.
"Say my name say my name when no one is around you say baby I love you if you aint running game," they all finished together.
As Sophia was on the left she put her left hand into the air while Madge was on the right so she put her right arm into the air. Cashmere put both her arms into the air throwing her hip to the left.
"Amazing girls you will be perfect people for our show," Sir said clapping and jotting a few things down on his notebook.
"So finally we have Finch, Katniss, Thresh and Peeta," Sir said as they got off the stairs and walked down to the stage.
"Hi erm we would all just like a small part please apart from Finch," Katniss said motioning towards her.
"I would like to do the lighting and the technical works also be a vocal coach," Finch said looking up through her eyelashes.
"That's perfect Finch we needed someone to help us with that," Sir said his eyes lighting up.
"Okay well were going to do a black eyed peas song," Katniss said and I looked up.
They all got into a trapezium with the two girls making up the front and the boys further apart behind them then they turned the back on us.
"No, no, no, no, don't phunk with my heart," Finch sung turning towards us.
"I wonder if I take you home would you still be in love, baby," Katniss said turning as well.
"I wonder if I take you home would you still be in love, baby. In love baby," they sang together as they walked across each other so they ended up in opposite places.
"Girl, you know you got me, got me. With your pistol shot me, shot me. And I'm here helplessly in love and nothing can stop me. You can't stop me cause once I start it," Thresh sung jumping round and I realised how amazing he was at rapping, "Can't return me cause once you bought it. I'm coming baby, don't got it. So let's be about it."
"No, no, no, no, don't phunk with my heart," Katniss sung.
"Baby, have some trustin', trustin'. When I come in lustin', lustin'. Cause I bring you that comfort I ain't only here cause I want ya body. I want your mind too. Interestin's what I find you and I'm interested in the long haul. Come on girl," Peeta rapped.
He wasn't as good as Thresh but he was deffinatley better than most.
"I wonder if I take you home. Would you still be in love, baby? I wonder if I take you home. Would you still be in love, baby in love, baby," Katniss sung moving her hips.
"No, no, no, no, don't phunk with my heart," Finch sung.
"No, no, no, no, don't phunk with my heart," Katniss sung halfway through Finch's line.
"Why are you so insecure. When you got passion and love her. You always claimin' I'm a cheater. Think I'd up and go leave ya. For another señorita," Thresh rapped again, "You forgot that I need ya. You must've caught amnesia. That's why you don't believe!"
"Don't you worry 'bout a thing, baby. Cause you know you got me by a string, baby. Don't you worry 'bout a thing, baby. Cause you know you got me by a string, baby," Peeta sung.
"No, no, no, no, don't phunk with my heart," Katniss sung.
"I wonder if I take you home would you still be in love, baby," Finch sung as Katniss began sing overlapping her.
"Don't you worry 'bout a thing, baby. Cause you know you got me by a string, baby. Don't you worry 'bout a thing, baby. Cause you know you got me by a string, baby," Katniss sung with Finch joining back in with her.
They all turned round then looked back again over their shoulder.
We all stood up clapping loudly. Sir jotted some more notes down onto the paper before clapping as well.
"Okay so if that's everyone," Sir said standing up but there was a wait from the back of the room.
I turned to find Marvel and a smile appeared on my face. He started walking down the steps towards us a guitar slung over his back. After winking at me he turned to sir.
"I am going to audition with three other people sir if that's okay," he said and sir smiled.
Marvel took my hand and lead me out of the seat towards the stage before sitting me down on a chair that he got from the side. He took his guitar off his back then he started to play it.
"Where is the moment we needed the most? You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost. They tell me your blue skies faded to grey. They tell me your passion's gone away. And I don't need no carrying on," he sung to me circling me and I smiled up at me before I heard a girls voice from the side of the stage start to sing.
"You stand in the line just to hit a new low. You're faking a smile with the coffee to go," the voice sung before walking out and revealing my best friend Annie's face.
She smiled at me before I heard another voice form the opposite side of the stage.
"They tell me your life's been way off line. You're falling to pieces every time. And I don't need no carrying on," Finnick sung and he walked over towards us more.
"Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down. You sing a sad song just to turn it around. You say you don't know, you tell me don't lie. You work on a smile and you go for a ride," Gale sung from the back of the hall and he began to walk down the steps.
He was also playing the guitar and winked at me.
"You had a bad day, the camera don't lie. You're coming back down and you really don't mind. You had a bad day. You had a bad day," Annie and Finnick sung hand in hand in front of me facing me with apologetic eyes.
"Sometimes the system goes on the blink. And the whole thing it turns out wrong. You might not make it back and you know. That you could be well oh that strong. And I'm not wrong," Marvel sung going to the front of the stage to meet Gale.
"Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down. You sing a sad song just to turn it around. You say you don't know, you tell me don't lie. You work on a smile and you go for a ride," Marvel and Gale sung together before walking toward me again.
"You had a bad day, you see what you're like. And how does it feel a one more time? You had a bad day. You had a bad day," They all finished before I launched myself at Finnick and Annie.
We all stood there for a few minutes with Finnick's arms around us both before I brought myself out of it. Tears were falling down Annie's face as she smiled.
"What are you two doing here?" I asked them and they smiled.
"Well we both moved here as we didn't like our old school and we knew we needed to be with you again. So we could be our three. We are so sorry for leaving you," Annie said hugging me again and I hugged her back.
"It's fine Annie I'm just so glad you're here," I said smiling up at Finnick.
He opened up his arms and I walked into them.
"I've missed you Finnick," I whispered and he smiled.
"I miss you more kiddo."
"Who told you which school I went to?" I asked curiously and he smiled.
"Marvel came to find us," he said and I swished round to Marvel who shrugged.
I ran over and hugged him hard and I saw Cato glare at him.
"You needed your best friends back and I knew you told these two everything over chat. So I told them what happened," Marvel whispered the last part and my eyes widened in shock.
"He told you two," I whispered to them and they nodded sadly.
"I'm so sorry Clovey," Annie whispered.
"Which characters would you four like to play then?" Sir said coming up to the stage.
"I'd like to help direct," Finnick said and I remembered he hated preforming.
"Dancer but could I help work out the dance routines?" Annie said in her sing song voice then she took Finnick's hand.
"Of course you can we needed help with that.
"Amos please," Marvel said and Cato's face became furious.
"Small part please sir," Gale said walking up to give Finnick a quick pat on the back smiling at him.
Katniss ran up and threw herself at Finnick. No one apart from me and Finnick knew Annie though but Katniss shook her hand and introduced herself.
"Okay can Glimmer, Clove, Cashmere, Katniss, Annie and Madge come up to the stage and the rest of you sit in the audience please," Sir said and we all made our way into a line, "I presume that you have all seen Chicago."
We all nodded and sir smiled and clapped his hands.
"Excellent! Do you all know the to Cell Block Tango dance and song?" he said and we all nodded once again but I felt my heart rate quicken, "Okay can all the other girls who know the dance come behind and join in the bit where all the girls stomp."
Rue, Sophia, Johanna and Finch came up behind us and sir smiled.
"Okay can Katniss you be pop, Glimmer six, Cashmere squish, Madge uh uh, Clove Cicero and Annie Lipchitz. Boys can you come and help?" He said and they made there way to the stage.
"Okay off you go," Sir shouted and we smiled at each other before looking down.
"Pop," Katniss whispered looking up.
"Six," Glimmer whispered.
"Squish."
"Uh Uh."
"Cicero," I whispered looking up like the rest.
"Lipchitz!"
We repeated it twice more each doing our own movement to it. Then we all looked at each other before stomping our right feet forward.
"He had it coming, he had it coming he only had himself to blame. If you'd have been there, if you'd have seen it I betcha you would have done the same," we all shouted together.
"You know how people have these little habits that get you down. Like Bernie. Bernie like to chew gum. No, not chew. POP," Katniss said shouting the pop and storming forward towards Peeta," So I came home this one day and I am really irritated, and I'm
looking for a bit of sympathy and there's Bernie layin' on the couch, drinkin' a beer
and chewin'. No, not chewin'. Poppin'. So, I said to him, I said, "you pop that gum one more time..." and he did."
She was dancing circles round him now and then on the he did part she gripped his shoulder. Peeta was smiling at her trying to hide it.
"So I took the shotgun off the wall and I fired two warning shots..." she said flexing her foot upwards so it rested on his shoulder, "into his head."
"He had it coming. He had it coming. He only had himself to blame!" We all sung stopping forward one line at a time, "If you'd have been there. If you'd have heard it. I betcha you would have done the same!"
"I met Ezekiel Young from Salt Lake city about two years ago and he told me he was single and we hit it off right away. So, we started living together. He'd go to work, he'd come home, I'd fix him a drink, We'd have dinner," Glimmer sung walking up to Marvel, "And then I found out, "Single" he told me? Single, my ass. Not only was he married oh, no, he had six wives," she said waving six fingers towards sir then she walked behind Peeta and put her hands on his shoulders.
Her skirt was so high it was nearly showed off her um and when she was spinning it spun with her.
"One of those Mormons, you know. So that night, when he came home from work, I fixed him his drink as usual," she said flinging Peeta to the floor, "You know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic."
She stood back up but not before kissing Peeta on the cheek then joined back into the line.
He had it coming. He had it coming. He took a flower in its prime. And then he used it and he abused it. It was a murder but not a crime!" Cashmeer, Annie, Glimmer and Katniss sung.
At the same time me and Madge were singing, "Pop, six, squish, uh-uh Cicero, Lipchitz!"
"Now, I'm standing in the kitchen minding my own business, carvin' up the chicken for dinner, and in storms my husband Wilbur, in a jealous rage," Cashmere sung stomping round Finnick and my mind spun.
The knife. Gloss. Tears were growing in my eyes but I just blinked them back.
He kicked my wrist and the phone flew out of my hand while I cried out in pain.
Grabbing my hair he pulled me up the stairs and got his iPhone out his pocket.
""You been screwin' the milkman," he says. He was crazy and he kept screamin'," Glimmer sung as her and Finnick circled each other.
I was shaking in fear now as he pulled me down hard onto the bed.
""you been screwin the milkman." And then he ran into my knife. He ran into my knife ten times!"
Suddenly he pulled a knife out and my eyes widened. Suddenly he stabbed it into my right shoulder and I screamed in pain. It was unbearable. The pain felt like it was burning up the inside of me.
I shook my head trying to rid the images out of my head but it was too much. My head was spinning like a top.
"My sister, Veronica and I had this double act and my husband, Charlie, travelled around with us," I said walking forward and I heard Cato coming towards me as well as another girl, "Now, for the last number in our act, we did 20 acrobatic tricks one two three four, five...splits, spread eagles, back flips, flip flops, one right after the other. Well, this one night we were in the hotel Cicero, the three of us, boozin' and havin' a few laughs and we ran out of ice. So I went out to get some."
Cato and Sophia were doing a dance by the side of me.
"I come back, open the door and there's Veronica and Charlie doing Number Seventeen- the spread eagle," I exclaimed as we all got into three lines.
"The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum," we all shouted as the first line of us stomped forward then went to the back.
"The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum," The second and third line did the same.
"You pop that gum one more time!"
"Single my ass."
"Ten times!"
"Miert csukott Uncle Same bortonbe."
"Number seventeen-the spread eagle."
"Artistic differences."
"Pop!"
"Six!"
"Squish!"
"Uh Uh"
"Cicero."
"Lipchitz!"
We all finished with our hands on our hips in different positions. As soon as we stopped I was running. Out the room not knowing where I would go just wanting to get out of there...
