Get out of here? Where can we go? We are prisoners, waiting the death sentence. But I don't question him and follow. He goes to my room, which is weird, but turns away from my door to another. Huh, I never noticed that. He opens it and we walk up the stairs. I can see the night sky and stars before Peeta and I run ahead of him. Engulfing the night air which I haven't seen for days. I look at Peeta and he is laughing at me. I guess I probably look pretty funny. Taking in deep breaths of air like they are my last, but I can't help it. I lie on my back and just keep breathing in the oxygen.I have needed this. After about 5 minutes, I stand up walk over by him, but he is still laughing
. "Hey, I haven't seen the outside in like 4 days! Cut me some slack." I say, but I'm laughing too. He smiles and says
"I did the same thing when Cinna showed me this last night, stayed up here until 2 a.m. Didn't really want to leave. So Prim, tell me what happened during your session." He says. I say.
"Well, they were pretty much all drunk and worn out. But when I picked up the bow, they started laughing at me and saying stuff like, 'Oh how cute' and 'Why don't you scoot up a little.' And I got mad. So I did my shooting and I did so good, that their mouths were hanging open. I said some really rude and uncalled for things, Then I walked out without being dismissed. But they will for sure remember me." I at feeling proud of myself. Peeta looks completely shocked.
"I forgot to tell you didn't I?" I'm confused
"Tell me what?" I asked. Then he said
"Dang it! Haymitch didn't want us to be noticed."
