OKAY... I'M SORRY. I HAVEN'T UPDATED IN A GAZILLION YEARS AND I FEEL AWFUL AND I'M FREAKIN' SORRY.
THIS CHAPTER WILL BE GOOD, THOUGH.
DISCLAIMER:I THINK WE ALL KNOW BY NOW I'M TOO STUPID TO BE SUZANNE COLLINS.
I don't know.
Seriously? That's all he can say? Oh, I don't know, maybe I kissed you because I'm stupid. Hardee-hardee-har.
I really thinking about throwing my phone across the room at the wall. But it's at my favorite part of Finding Nemo. Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.
Lindley is fast asleep next to Mere on the sterile hospital bed. She literally went out like a light five minutes into the movie. Mere is wide-awake even though it's been a long day.
Mere has to go in for testing tomorrow and were leaving around dinner-time tomorrow as well.
I want to stay the whole week but Mom insist that we have school and we'll come visit later and that we'll also see them at Grandma's for Christmas.
Speaking of my Grandparents, they're supposed to show up in the morning.
"Oh my God! This station is playing my favorite song!" Beth shouts then pauses the movie, getting a 'Hey!' from Prim, and turns up the radio/alarm clock that came with the room she's been messing for about ten minutes.
I set my phone down on the arm of the couch and go over there to see what she means.
'Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
"Hey! I know this song. It's Lorde, right?" I ask and Beth nods.
Acting on your best behavior
Turn your back on Mother Nature
Everybody wants to rule the world
It's a spooky song. Kind of dark and lost sounding. The music in the background should be in the suspenseful part of a horror movie.
Beth lip-syncs to it, matching every word with the movements of her lips.
It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most of freedom
And of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do, I'll be right behind you
So glad we've almost made it
So sad we had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world
Everybody wants to rule the world
Everybody wants to rule the world'
Beth turns down the radio as some stupid Justin Bieber song begins.
"Why's that your favorite song?" Mere asks.
Beth shrugs. "I don't know. It's kind of... I don't know. I just like."
Prim gets the remote from Beth and presses play.
"Everybody wants to rule the world." Beth says in a quiet voice.
"By the way, he texted me back." I say and reach across Mere's bed to the arm of the couch and grab my phone. "He just said, 'I don't know.'"
Mere makes an angry face. "What a jerk."
I nod and Beth grabs my phone. "There must be some reason... Text him that."
"Why?"
"Because there must be some reason. Now text him that. Go on." She says and shoves the phone back in my hands. Beth's been really bossy lately. I almost glare at her but I think better of it and text him what Beth told me to.
There must be some reason.
I turn my attention back to the movie and try to pretend I'm not begging my phone to buzz meaning I got a text.
Finally it does.
Peeta: I'd rather tell you in person.
I look over at Beth, who is sitting next to me on the couch. I don't have to tell her. I can wing it. Because I'm older and I know what I'm doing. Who am I kidding? I have no idea what I'm doing. But I want to keep this to myself. So I text him back myself without any help from Beth or Mere. I'll probably have to tell them later but whatever.
Katniss: Sure.
There. I did it. He probably doesn't know how to respond to that because 'Sure' is just something you accept.
I feel Beth looking at me so I turn my head. "What?"
"What did he say?" Beth asks. She doesn't sound mad, just curious.
"I'd rather tell you in person." I tell her.
"And what did you say?"
"Sure."
Beth smiles and I know I that I did the right thing. Maybe it's rubbing off on me.
Weird.
IDK. OKAY GUYS. I'M GOING TO CUT ALL MY HAIR OFF AND SEND IT TO LOCKS OF LOVE SO WISH ME LUCK.
REVIEW AND WHATEVER.
