Dealing with the war

nice dress

i kept staring at my reflection in the mirror in front of me. Heavy makeup, frizzy monstrous wig with giant pink flowers on it , heels . A wave of happiness rushed over me , leaving goosebumps on my spine . I gently stroked the silky pink fabric of the dress , which I had sewn myself during my free time in this hell called district 13. I mean the least I can do was use the time for something productive, instead of bawling my eyes out how completely miserable I am . Of course it's true that the living conditions in 13 are a living hell , but I'd rather be doing the right thing with the people I love in hell , than spending my days feeling guilty and being surrounded by assholes or brain deads. I heard a buzzing sound coming from my door . then the speaker went on " hey , um .. Abernathy here . I know I'm a bit early but can you let me in . hehe" haymitch muffled through the speaker . giggles escaped my mouth as I pushed the opening button . The metal door pushed open and a second later haymitch rushed in closing the door behind him . He looked terrible. his chin length hair was tangled and stood up in several directions. he looked tired and hungover and his grey uniform was buttoned up wrong . " you look dreadful  " I declared trying to hold my laughter . " well at least I'll make you look better when you're standing next to me " he chuckled which made me laugh . with tears in my eyes i giggled " you look hungover " . " actually the opposite, princess ! ya know I haven't had a drop since I'm here and trust me , being sobered up is a nightmare . I'm hoping to get a drink at the wedding later but I think coin sure likes to torture me and serves alcohol free bowle " he announced sarcastically while  awkwardly scratching the back of his back . I stepped right in front of him trying to detangle the mop on his head . his cheeks reddened lightly . C-c-could he p-possible like me ? ok trinket calm down , it's just hot in here . I stepped back observing his hair . actually did a good job there . I kinda zapped out for a few seconds " ground control to trinket ? I know I'm handsome but could you please stop staring at me . no offense but it weirds me out " he snapped wildly in front my face waking me . " oh sorry , I kinda zapped out for a sec ." I told him , nervously playing with the fabric of my dress . " and how was Effie land . lots of wigs and makeup ? " he laughed . " you forgot killer heels , my deer fried " I giggled while he was in tears from laughing . i bent down to button up his shirt the right way and my cheeks reddened slightly as I looked up to him . He was leaning down so awful close to my face that I was able to feel his warm breath when  suddenly the door opened and a very confused katniss stood in the doorway . I quickly jumped away from haymitch  . Awkwardly blushing . a smirk crept on katniss's face . " look it's not what it looks like , katniss !" I declared shakingly . " it is exactly what it looks like , katniss , so could you please leave !" haymitch shouted . I grabbed one of my magazines near the table and smashed it on his head while laughing .
