A/N: Hiya! Okies, dokies. I'm not going to lie, this chapter is 100% based on the song "It's Different For Girls" if you don't know the song, that's perfectly okay because not everyone likes country music. It's one of the very little, very few, country songs I've heard. Anyway, this is in Clove's POV. Enjoy or not. I appreciate all the views, all the comments, all the votes, all the help. I know you want me to shut up on the author's note so you can read the fuckin' chapter but I've got a lot to say so be very patient. I mean, so many views! Wow! Do you people know how happy I am to see that I get more views, more votes, more followers? Hell, even seeing comments on my stories make me happy! God, I love all of you people! I'm a dork so don't judge me. Also, I was up all night watching The Avengers: Age Of Ultron and now, every time my dad cusses, I shout, "Language!" Or ask him if he kisses his mother with that mouth (if you've watched the movie, you probably understand.) So, I'm a little crazy. I live by the whole saying Live like today is your last day, because I enjoy life. I never know when my last breath will be took. I take advantage of the day. Okay, I'm sorry. I have a lot to say. I've drunk three cups of coffee, three Starbucks, seven Monster Javas and four Cokes and that's only when I woke up at 4:00 A.M. for work. Okay, I'm shutting up now, here's the chapter:

Clove"Clove," Katniss starts as I lay on my bed and she and Johanna sit on each side of me.
"Yeah, Kat?" I look up at her.
"Are you alright?"
"Lucifer's home yeah, she's fine," Johanna says sternly. "No guy is gonna make her loose herself, dude."
"Calm down, Jo," I chuckle as I sit up. "I'm fine, Katniss. I just can't stop thinking about him. He was good to me and he was my world. He was the best thing that's ever happened to me."
"Gales the only thing that's ever happened to me," Johanna says nonchalantly then looks at us. "I'm not helping. Am I?"
I giggle a little. "You are helping. I'm a little upset about the whole Glimmer kissing Cato thing." I sigh.
"It's different for girls." Katniss shrugs. "Guys act like nothing happened while we sit at home, miserable."
"I'm not— okay, I'm completely miserable."
"Not for long." Johanna smirks, standing in front of us.
"What do you mean?" Katniss cocks an eyebrow.
"I mean, get off your asses. Clove, stop being all depressed and shit and get dressed." She laughs.
"Why?" I ask as Katniss and I stand up.
"We're going to a party!" She smiles broadly, yet devilishly.
"We aren't getting into any trouble, Jo," Katniss says sternly, grabbing her purse.
"Actually" —I smirk— "let's get into a little trouble."

We get to the party and get a big surprise. "Asshole, three O' clock," Johanna says, making Katniss and I laugh.
"Hey," Gale says as he walks over and kisses the top of Johanna's head.
She smiles a little. "Hey. Why the f–" Katniss cuts her off.
"Jo! Don't you dare finish that sentence!" Katniss shouts.
"Why the what adults do when they're horny is that male reproductive part here?" Johanna finishes the sentence.
"What?" He looks at her, confused.
"Don't ask. I was challenged by Annie. Also, if I win this bet, I'll get a Starbucks gift card that has over three hundred dollars on it."
"That's a lot of money for coffee," he says, his eyes wide. "Anyway, Cato's got a buzz and has hooked up with three different girls."
Tears well up in my eyes. "I knew that he's forgotten about me already," I say and run out the door, broken-hearted. I run to Johanna's candy apple red Mustang and curl up in the front seat, crying. I hate guys! I think as Johanna, Gale, and Katniss run to the car.
"I'm sorry, Clo," Gale says. "I wasn't thinking when I said it."
"Oh, is that your excuse?" I ask, mocking anger to hide my hurt. "You weren't thinking? What the hell, Gale? Why can't you just use your head, kid?" I chuckle. Just because I'm miserable, it doesn't mean that I have to make everyone else miserable.
"You're not mad?" He cocks an eyebrow.
"Nah. Upset, maybe. Not mad, though." I punch his arm playfully.
"There she is." He smiles as he hugs me. "There's the girl we know and love."
"She's always here if you need her, or if you don't want her around," I say and we all laugh.
"Wanna go home?" Katniss asks and I nod.
"Yeah. We don't need them. We'll have our own party," Gale says as he gets in his black Jeep Wrangler beside us. "See you guys there!" He shouts as he rides ahead of us.
A/N: Hiya! Okies, dokies. Um, I'm running low on ideas and need help. My phone won't let me read comments for some stupid reason, so if you have an idea, you probably have to private message me. I promise I'll try to get them into my stories. So, if you've got an idea, just let me know. I'll get them in my story as quick as I can. 😉
