HEY GUYS :3
I'M GOING TO PUT A QUOTE HERE FROM NOW ON BECAUSE... I DON'T KNOW, I HAVE A LOT OF RANDOM QUOTES IN MY HEAD. WHY NOT PUT THEM SOME WHERE.
'THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A HAPPY ENDING. ENDINGS ARE THE SADDEST PART. JUST GIVE ME A HAPPY BEGINNING AND MIDDLE.' SHEL SILVERSTEIN
OWN NOTHING... OBVIOUSLY...
I follow Peeta out into the crowd. Nobody is really staring at me, everyone is looking awkwardly away from the person they're dancing with. Maybe this was a bad idea.
I've gone to all the dances since sixth grade a never danced with anyone and that's fine with me. The way people dance at middle school dances is the awkwardest thing. They stand two feet apart and the girl puts her hands on his shoulders and the guys puts his hands on her waist. During the dance they look anywhere but the person they're dancing with. Usually I stand off to the side and laugh but no I'm the one dancing.
I put my hands on Peeta's shoulders and look for someone in my group in the crowd. No wonder they look anywhere but the person they're dancing with. This is so weird. What an I supposed to do? Talk to him? I'm not good a just randomly talking to someone. But maybe... Why not ask?
"So, do you watch the Walking Dead?" I ask Peeta. He looks at me surprised as if e didn't expect me to say something.
"Yeah, I can't wait for season four." He says.
Thank God. I thought he'd say no and I'd stand there all silent. "Lori deserved to die. She was a horrible mom." I say.
"She had some issues." Peeta nods.
"I've read the comic books and Sophia doesn't die. She only dies in the show." I've read the comic books with my dad because Walking Dead was his favorite comic. Watching the show makes me think of him.
"Really? My brother reads the comics but I thought they were just like the show." He says.
"Trust me, the books are always better than the movies." I tell him.
The song ends and I say goodbye and go back to my table. Madge comes and sits next to me.
Madge smiles at me and starts humming. The tune is familiar.
"What are you humming?" I ask her.
"Kat and Peeta sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G..." She hums the rest as I glare at her.
"Madge, stop." I beg.
She smiles dreamily. "Aww, watching you two dance was so cute."
"Well... You danced with Gale! What's wrong with me dancing with somebody?"
"It wasn't one of those awkward dances where they look anywhere but the person they are dancing with." Madge tells me. So she noticed, too. "You were talking like normal people."
I roll my eyes. "Normal people talk about the Walking Dead. Yes, that sounds accurate."
"At least your date wasn't talking about guns and killing animals then stuffing them to put on your wall." Madge huffs.
"What?"
"Gale wouldn't stop talking about his target practice he had the other day. Then he told me how he shot the first deer of the season last year when they went hunting in Northern California and stuffed it and how he mounted it above his bed." Madge shutters. "Talk about creepy."
Suddenly there is a loud commotion on the DJ stage. "Alright everyone! We're going to do the most awesome dance EVER!" A familiar voice shout loudly into the microphone.
"Oh no. Please, no." I whisper.
"I'm gonna teach you all to do the Chicken Dance!"
Prim.
I HATE HOW AT EVERY SCHOOL DANCE I GO TO, EVERYONE DANCES ALL AWKWARD AND ISN'T EVEN LOOKING AT THE PERSON THEY'RE DANCING WITH. WHAT THE BISCUIT?!
ANYWHO, NEXT CHAPTER'S VERY EXCITING! AS YOU CAN TELL, BUT... :)
REVIEW PLEASE!
