Trying To Hate You

Costume (Katniss' P.O.V)

A/N~ Listening to remixes while making this because silence is overrated!!

(Song- Help our souls- Urban contact remix)

Katniss' P.O.V~ Haymitch and Effie were leading Peeta and I to our stylists. While crowds of crazy capital people were chanting our names.

Peeta didn't say much to me since our little encounter from last night. I'm not complaining though, I didn't really want to talk much to him. It's not that I don't like him, it's just that I didn't want to bring up him throwing that bread to me.

"So who are our stylists?" Peeta asks. Breaking the silence that has formed between the four of us.

"Well for you Peeta" Effie says "You have Portia, who is just a lovely lady."

"And for you Katniss, you have Cinna. Who I believe is a new stylist." Haymitch says.

We finally come to a stop at a door. Haymitch led us inside while Effie waited outside. When we entered Haymitch started talking to some people, leaving Peeta and I to take in our surroundings.

There were little cubical spaces separating each of the tributes. You couldn't see anything but you could hear whimpers and screams from some cubicles and water running through others.

"This must be where they'll clean us up." Peeta says.

"Yeah." I say staring at Haymitch walking back over to us.

"Katniss follow me." He says walking away.

I start to follow close behind him. He leads me to an empty cubical.

"Undress yourself and wait till the people come." He says turning away.

"What?" I say staring at him.

"Do as I said. Also don't complain to them, it'll make things easier. He says walking away leaving me dumbfounded.

"You're Katniss I presume." A man says walking into my cubical.

"Yes."

"I'm Cinna." The man says holding out his hand.

I shake it and smile at him. He then starts walking around me, examining my body but never touching it.

"I think your costume would be perfect on you." He complements.

"What is my costume?" I ask. I remember a few years ago there were some kids, and for the chariot ride they were completely nude with black coal dust on them. I shudder at the thought of that happening to me.

"Well this year you're going to be in a coal costume." Yep I'm defiantly going to be nude. "But we're not focused on the actual coal itself. We're going to focus on what it does."

"You're going to set me on fire?" I say shocked."

"Fake fire. So don't worry." He says smiling. But it will take more than a smile to reassure me thatthe costume would be safe.

"Put that robe on and follow me." He says pointing to the robe that's next to me.

I grab it and slip it on. The soft fabric is making me less vulnerable than I felt with my clothes off. We walk down a hallway to a door.

Once inside I saw the prettiest outfit I've ever seen in my life.

A/N~ Meant to finish this earlier but there are things called brothers that exist. Well finally we're in the capital so let the fun begin!!!!
