"Got the water!"

Gale walks through the door with some bottled waters. He gives me a 'come on let's go' look.

"Okay well I'm all ready. Peeta?"

"Yupp, all good."

We all grab our bags and head out the door. As we walk along the trail to the train station I notice that we all are like a sandwich. Gale and Peeta on both sides of me, walking awfully close to me. So to break the tension I start to run and yell back at them 'Come on boys I'm gonna beat you both there!' Just like that they start to catch up. The train station is only four miles away and I'm a good half a mile ahead. As a kid I loved to run through the woods with my dad. Im swift so it was easy to avoid obstacles like branches and rocks. This though is an open trail so my speed increases with nothing in the way. Once I pass all the stores in town I know I only have half a mile left. When I get there I buy all three tickets for the train to district 3. We all decided to stop at 3 so we could meet up with Annie and Finnick jr. We might be able to recruit them while we're at it. Oh and here comes the runner up Gale. Gale is pretty fast for his size. Peeta follows not so far behind. I mean it is pretty hard for him with his leg and all.

"Hey Katnip! have you gotten even faster since the games?"

Gale smirks.

"Actually you just have gotten slower."

"Dang that really hurt my heart."

Gale yells while bending over and clenching his chest. He starts to grab my arm and bring me down with him.

"Gaaaaalllleeee!!!!"

I yell as we both fall into each other. I look I to those dark grey eyes and almost think about kissing him. then I hear a sigh coming from Peeta.

"Ugh um"

Me and gale get up. while I'm dusting myself off, I see Gale give a glare at Peeta. So I hand them both their tickets and get on the train. There's only two seats per row. Who will I sit with? Gale or Peeta? they both stare at me then sit down in different seats across from each other. They look at me again as if I have to decide between them. Gale winks at me and moves his hand over the empty seat. I look at Peeta and he just looks outside the window as if he knew I wouldn't sit with him. So I sit down in my seat and get out a book to read.
