Chapter 8

Katniss P.O.V.

It's our first night in the house. Glimmer and Cato's dad is so rich he gave us a house with a freaking big pool. And like ten rooms, eight bathrooms and three balconies.

Because I'm fast I quickly ran up the stairs and searched the rooms. I picked the biggest one that had a balcony and a bathroom attached. Madge and I ended up in an argument which I ended up winning. She said that it was unfair, and I said that it's the rules of the jungle. She said we weren't animals, but than I said: "Madge honey, are you really sure of that?" She laughed and agreed to let me have the room.

I also wanted the room because it was the only room that has green walls. I love green, it's my favorite color.

I'm not loving the thought of Mellark and I living in the same house but I have to live with it. I don't wanna make a fool of myself like three days ago. The views on YouTube just continues to rise on the clip Cato put up.

"Katniss!"

I jerk and turn around. Glimmer's high pitched voice is just as awful as Prim's.

"What?" I ask and walk towards her. She's standing in the hall with the mail.

"These came for you", she says and hand me like ten envelopes.

"What is this?" I ask myself as I take them.

"Well open them", Glimmer says.

We walk into the kitchen were Annie is sitting by the kitchen table, looking at her iPhone.

"Someone's getting popular", Annie winks when she sees the pile of envelopes I dump on the table.

"Right", I say as I pick up the first one and open it.

I take up the letter inside of it. As I read it I become angry. It's a hate letter.

"What's wrong?" Glimmer asks.

"Listen to this", I say angrily and start to read out loud. "If you so much as touch Peeta's head again I will squash your pretty little face! Leave Peeta Mellark alone!"

"Wait what?" Glimmer says and takes the letter from me.

As she reads it, Annie and I grab a letter each and open them.

"Dear little Katniss Everdeen, if you attack Peeta like that again, I'll attack you, maybe I'm your neighbor, maybe I'm a student at your school, maybe I'm your shadow, but I'll know if you touch him again", I read.

"Katniss Katniss Katniss, if you touch Peeta again you'll be wishing that you've never been born", Annie reads with a horrified voice.

We rip the others open.

"These are all hate letters!" I gasp. "What did I even do?!"

"I don't know, how do they even know where you live?" Glimmer says.

"Well if they're big fans of Peeta they look things up", Annie says. "Don't you remember how we were when we were all hooked up on Jonas Brothers?"

I shudder at the thought.

"Horrible, horrible time", I sigh feeling bad about my music past.

"Yeah, maybe that wasn't the best time of our lives", Glimmer admits. "But those three brothers are hoooot".

"Who's hot?" Marvel asks as he enters the kitchen with the rest of the group.

"Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas", Annie laughs.

"They're cool guys too", Mellark says. "Really kind".

I raise my eyebrow. I didn't even think of the fact that he's world wide famous and probably knows a lot of other celebrities.

"I thought you were over them", Cato says looking at his sister.

"Oh we are trust me!" I say. "Annie was just explaining how crazy girls can get when they're into a singer or actor or something".

"Why?" Finnick asks.

"Because of these", I sigh pointing at the letters, which are laying everywhere onto the table, before walking to the fridge.

I open the fridge and look for my water bottle.

"What are these?" Cato asks.

I grab my bottle.

"Hate letters, addressed to yours truly", I say as I close the fridge and bows. I walk up to them, Annie, Clove, Madge and Glimmer giggling at what I just did. "Seems like I've become the new hate interest", I say as I open the my bottle to take a sip of my water.

"This is horrible", Finnick says.

"Eh why? It's not like I'm scared or anything", I say and plop down onto Annie's knees.

She takes the bottle from me and takes a sip from the water.

"No but still, this is not good", Mellark says frowning.

I narrow my eyes. I'm about to accuse Peeta of this being his fault, but I guess that Annie sensed that because she puts her hand over my mouth.

"How can someone write this?" Marvel asks scanning two letters he has in both of his hands.

I shrug and Annie takes away her hand.

"I don't know, I don't care", I say. "They seem to think that I abuse Mellark or something".

"Well you kind of do", Finnick laughs. "You did ram your book into his head in school one time".

"And you pushed him down the last steps of the staircase at my parents house, three weeks ago", Marvel says.

"And than we have the time when you threw the front door onto him when he was about to walk in", Clove says.

"And you almost ran over him with your car", Glimmer says. "Remember?"

"And how about the time when you locked him into that closet and told us he was out, it took us five hours to realize what had actually happened", Cato says.

"And you threw your iPhone onto his head", Annie says. "He got that big bump".

"You gave him a black eye when you knocked him in the eye with your elbow", Madge says.

"And I remember when you tried to feed him a camouflaged pineapple, knowing he's allergic to pineapple", Gale says.

"And when you almost knocked the bookcase over him", Glimmer says.

"And let us not forget about what happened three days ago", Finnick says.

I scratch the back of my neck. Okay that makes me seem bad. I don't know what to say to defend myself though, everything they just said is true.

Am I a horrible person? When they line everything up like that, I almost feel bad.

"Everyone of those ... Accidents has their own reasons", I say.

"Right", Finnick laughs. "And there's a very very good reason to why you girls were so obsessed with Jonas Brothers that you helped each other to plan weddings, including those poor boys as grooms".

I hit Finnick in the head with the bottle as everyone burst out laughing.

Boy were we stupid when we were younger!
