The Hunger Games

Chapter 5:

I hurriedly scuttled back to my room to get ready for the day. Peeta has made the suggestion of sleeping outside,so we did, and I only had one nightmare that night.

I quickly got ready and headed down stairs. The maid, made pancakes and bacon. I turned my face around to see the tv playing.

It was playing recaps of what happened in the 76th hunger games. As I watched I saw a bronze hair man with beautiful sea green eyes fall into the hands of vicios mutts. I quickly turned it off before Peeta walked into the room.

“ What district are we doing today?” Peeta asked.

“ I think it’s districts 7,8, and 9.” I say.

“ Let’s get this over with so we can go to the penthouse, and spend the night together” he said.

“Sure” I say.

We leave and go to Tigris’s shop again. Thinking we need to do something to thank her for all the help she has given us. Maybe Peeta can make her a cake.

District 7 walks into the room. I can’t stand to do this anymore; it’s getting to tiring. There is still six districts left to ask. The thought of saving them all is worth the work.

Twelve-year old Tey and Marx introduce themselves. They are so young, I think. They don’t deserve to be going through this. Tey looks sort of wealthy and has deep blue eyes. Marx on the other hand looks like he just woke up, and doesn’t care what he looks like.

We explain the plan, and they agree. Before leaving, Tey, wanted to get a picture with me and Peeta. After she took it she said “ I always wanted to meet you.”

That makes me feel good. That I matter, but I would feel okay if I didn’t matter to her as long as I mattered to Peeta. I’ve mattered to Peeta since kindergarten though, and it’s never been an issue.

It’s now district eight’s turn. They come in wearing the most popular and most expensive dress and tuxedo. They are from the district that makes clothes. No wander.

The girl said, “ Hi! My name is Jasmine Brooks, and I’m fifteen. This is Keemy Tart, also fifteen.”

“ Hey” said Peeta.” We want everyone from every district to ally with us during the games. We want to take all of you home. Me and my girlfriend Katniss are going to make a declaration in the arena. We are going to end the games for good,again” he said. His brows slightly showing a scorn because we have already done this one. When will the capitol ever learn.

“ We are in” says Kemmy, and then leaves.

“ Girlfriend” I questioned him.

“ Well now that Gale is out of the picture why not, and this real not the capitols doing.”

I give him a slight smile. Am I blushing? Does he see it? Ugh why is this so hard?

District nine enters the room ending my misery.“ Hey I’m Taffy, but you can call me Taff; this is my district partner James’ Hey’. I’m thirteen and he is twelve.”

Wow they have a lot of energy to be going into the games, I thought. We explain the plan, they agree, they leave. It’s sort of like a cycle.

We get to the penthouse. Me and Peeta both being exhausted; ate and went to bed.
