I woke up in an empty bed. I rubbed out my eyes and saw that there was a note on Peeta's pillow. I'll see you in the city hall, I'll be the man wearing a suit - P. It said. I would have to wait at least 5 hours before I could see Peeta. Today was the big day, I knew I would see Peeta in just a few hours, but I wanted to see him right away. Too bad I couldn't. I went into the bathroom and took a long warm shower. After a while I remembered I wasn't alone in the house, Gale was in the guest room. So I come out and started to dry my hair. Once dry I putted it in a long braid, would be easier for latter on the day. I putted on some clothes and went downstairs to the kitchen. Gale was probably still in bed because the kitchen was empty. There was another note on table. I took it in my hand and recognized Peeta's handwriting. Look into the fridge it said. I putted the note back on table and opened the fridge. There was another note. Made this for you yesterday - P. The note said, and I noticed the cheese bun. Even if I didn't woke up next to him, the note made me feel he still was in the house. It was really nice to have those. I ate the cheese bun and started to make some coffee, maybe Gale would like some. Once the coffee done I made myself some Camille thee. I took my cup of thee and walked towards the couch in the living room. On the table next to the TV there was another note. How much notes will I found? Are there more notes in the house? I took the note and unfold the paper. I just wanted to let you know that I love you – P "I love you too." I said whispering. I looked in all of the others rooms of the house but didn't notice any more notes. Too bad, I liked it.
When Gale finally woke up he left soon towards the city hall. He had to help putting something up or something like that. I wanted to go over at Haymitch to stay busy but he wasn't at home either. So I decided to go over at the city hall. Maybe Effie or Johanna would be there. If they weren't Magnolia would be there and if she didn't had enough time I could start getting dressed. Magnolia had promised the Mayor she would help with the flowers. Before I headed to the city hall I went back home and took my father's jacket, I wanted to have him by my side.
I walked into the city hall and saw Magnolia. "No, no, no you can't go in there yet!" She said leading my upstairs, into the room I was supposed to get ready. "Why?" I asked while she pushed me in the room. "Because." She said closing the door and went back downstairs. I was all alone again, and dropped my dad's jacket on the couch. I came earlier because I didn't want to stay alone! Didn't really work out. Well I would have to start making myself ready then. I looked at my dad jacket and took it back in my arms. If he would still be here, everything would be different. I would still get along with mom, we wouldn't have starve, maybe Prim would still be here. On the other hand, maybe I would never have been that good with a bow and arrows, I would have never met Peeta before the first games, would probably have died in the first games. Normally it was supposed to be dad who gave me over to Peeta downstairs. But he won't even be able to do it. The best thing I could hope was that he was with Prim now and that they would see all of it from where they are now. I putted the jacket back on the couch and started to undo my braid. When suddenly someone knocked on the door.
"Katniss sweety, open the door." I heard someone say. I opened it and it was like a huge green cloud took my in his arms. "Effie?" I said a little surprised. I knew she was supposed to come, because we invited her over here, but it was still weird to know she actually left the Capitol to come to district 12! "Common lady! It's my turn now!" Someone said behind Effie. I recognized the person immediately. "You're friend should learn some manners. I'm afraid she hasn't any of it!" She said as she come in and let Johanna took my in her arms. "So it's the big day!" She said coming in and closing the door. "I guess it is." I replied. "So you two came here together?" I asked them. "Well she stepped on the train in district 2 I think." By the sound of her voice I guess those two don't get along. "I can speak for myself lady!" Johanna said. "She really just a pain in the ass if you ask me!" Johanna said and I started giggling. "Watch your tongue Miss Mason! It's not a way to speak to someone." Effie replied. "Well I wasn't talking to you didn't I!" She replied and both shut up. « You both fight like your family! » I said sitting in front of a mirror. "Well, like you like to remember me, you see us both as you family. So it's okay if we fight like if it was." Johanna said. She came into my direction and undo my braid, she then take the brush and started to brush my hair. "Where is you dress sweety?" Effie asks. I show her it's in the wardrobe and she takes it out. "It's absolutely gorgeous! But it would have been better with some more colors and some feathers." That's not true! It's perfect like it is. It's not like I actually like the clothes Effie wears. "You're kidding right? It's like it has been made for her. Which is probably the case, it's totally her!" Johanna reply to Effie. "Okay, okay, fine. Let's just make that princess ready to go find her prince." Effie says and come helps Johanna to make me ready. I don't know why they don't let me do my own hair or my own make-up, which I'm happy, is done by Johanna and not by Effie.
I'm completely done now. "You're gorgeous! You're the most beautiful bride I've ever seen." Johanna says why they contemplate me in my fantastic dress. They let my hair hang in my back, but made a braid on each side of my face. After what they took both braids and made one braid from them that hangs in my back too. Someone knocks on the door and Effie opened it. "Katniss sweety, it's you mother. Come in Miss Everdeen." She come in and lay her eyes on my. Her mouth is wide open and she can't stop looking at me, which become awkward. "Katniss! You're, you're." Well maybe she will be able to finish her sentence? I should stop being mean, she's really trying to make things work. "You're perfect. You look like what I imagine a princess would look like, but even more beautiful." She finally says. "Thanks mom." I say before looking into the mirror again. "I found this in my wardrobe some months ago. I thought maybe you would like to wear it. It was from your great great great grandmother." She says showing us a veil. It was not too long so it would just come under my hair. It started with a simple silver hairpin with some green stones it. It was really gorgeous. "Mom, it's beautiful." I said, not knowing how to express what I feel about it. "May I?" She asks as she come and put it in my braids. "Actually I found it long time ago. It's Cinna who found it in one my wardrobes back then, it what have inspired him for your dress." I didn't know that. But whit the veil the dress seemed more complete, and it matched so well with the dress that I know it was the truth. "So, are you ready? It's time, there waiting for us downstairs." I'm sure Beth is waiting for me in her little yellow dress I bought her with her basket of flowers. "Yes, I'm ready." I said and we all left the room towards my future husband and love of my life.
I hope you enjoyed it. And just so you know, I really like reading your reviews…
