Chapter 13

Peeta's P.O.V.

None of us was happy with what Clove did. With school, my career and now this I will have so much to do. I won't have any free time at all.

But Clove is my friend and she wants the whole group to do this together. How can I say no?

When I first came here I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get any real friends, because I'm famous. But the group sees me as me and not as a celebrity. That's really hard to find as a celebrity, real friends.

And when they asked me to move in with them I knew, I knew they didn't care. I also kinda knew that they didn't care if I was famous when I realized that Katniss hates me. I admit that she's done things to me, but I'm not angry. I actually got kinda angry at Finnick when he read Katniss diary. That was wrong.

There's something with Katniss that interests me. As soon as I laid my eyes on her I knew she was something extra special.

She's so beautiful. So damn beautiful. Her eyes are so big and so beautiful. Her nose is so cute and her smile... I can't find words.

Whenever I see her I get all warm and butterflies starts flying around in my belly. She makes me feel like I walk on clouds, which is pretty weird considering that she's been pretty mean to me. But she's not mean to me anymore, although she's not kind either. She's nothing towards me really.

I think I got on her good side when I helped her and the girls revenge on the guys though. Because since, she's showed me some of her rare smiles every now and then.

"We get to know which roles were assigned today!" Clove says excited as we make our way to the auditorium.

"We know, you've been saying that ... All freaking day!" Madge says tensely.

And she really has. It really has started to get on everyone's nerves. Even Cato's nerves, and he loves her very much.

Clove's face gets red and she buries her face into Cato's arm.

Clove is cute. She's little and cute. She's almost like a child. But Cato love her and they're great together.

Our schedules has changed a bit now and we're gonna have drama like three times a week. I'm gonna have to try to fit that into my schedule. One of those rehearsals is on the same time as my singing rehearsals. Haymitch is gonna flip out when I tell him. But what can I do? I want to put my friendships first right now actually, because it's the first time I've had real friends.

"And it is starting to get really annoying", Katniss whines.

Glimmer opens the door to the auditorium. Katniss passes and leave the door to close and closes right on my nose.

"Owww", I whine and put my hand to my nose.

"Oh god are you okay?" Finnick asks.

"Mmhm", I mumble.

Katniss opens the door and peeks out with her head.

"Oh my, I'm sorry", she laughs. "But this time it wasn't on purpose".

Her laugh is so adorable.

The rest of the group starts laughing along with Katniss.

"Is my nose red?" I ask as we walk into the auditorium.

"Actually yes", Cato says. "I'm gonna start calling you Rudolph!"

"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Has a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows", Madge starts singing.

"All of the other reindeer's
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games", Glimmer sings as she points at Katniss who sighs.

"Then one foggy Christmas Eve,
Santa came to say,
Rudolph with your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?" Clove sings.

"Then all the reindeer loved him,
As they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the red-nose Reindeer
You'll go down in history!" Annie sings as she puts more energy in the last word.

I sigh.

"It's not that red is it?" I ask desperately looking at Finnick.

He gives me a pity full look and pats my shoulder.

I sigh as I sit down. Great... Juuuust great!

They all start laughing at my misery, and than finally so do I. I mean how can I not laugh?

The others sits down and after a few minutes Effie Trinket walks up into the stage.

"I've now given you all the roles in the play, I'm going to read them for you now", she says and hold up a list, which she starts reading from. "As the lead roles we have Katniss Everdeen as Jennifer and Peeta Mellark as Joshua".

I raise my eyebrow. Oh no. I glance over at Katniss who looks like someone hit her with a stone. I hear her groan.

"Annie as Stef, Clove as Isabelle, Madge as Dianna and Glimmer as Leven", she reads out.

The character Stef is sister with the character Jennifer, and Leven and Dianna are Josh's sisters, but Isabelle is another characters sister...

"Jack will be played by Marvel and Alexander by Cato, Sam by Finnick and Liam by Gale", she reads out.

She goes on and on until everyone has gotten their parts.

"Next drama class I'll be handing out the manuscripts, today we will just do some exercises", Effie says. "And we'll start with the trust exercise, the one where you fall into each other's arms, Katniss, Peeta come here".

We walk up to her.

"Katniss fall backwards into Peeta's arms, and trust him to catch you", Effie says.

"Umm, I don't though, in guessing he's waiting for an opportunity to revenge", she says, smiling shyly.

"Never know", I say devilish.

Of course I won't let her fall, but I don't have to tell her that.

"Oh hush you two, just do it okay?" Effie says.

Katniss sighs and stand with her back towards me. She takes a deep breath and starts falling backwards. I catch her light body in my arms and the butterflies starts going crazy inside of me.

"Now class! You saw what they did, now you all start doing it", Effie calls out.

And so everyone starts doing the exercise. I can't stop thinking of when I had Katniss body in my arms. My arms won't stop tingling.

I'll never forgot that. Never.
