Mockingjay High

Late

Katniss POV:

   As we pull up to the school we see our group standing by one of the willow trees that stand in front of our school.

   Laughing I hop out of the car throwing my bag over my shoulder as I jump. We already had dropped Prim off at her school earlier and we are still here 20 minutes before we have to be.

   "Come on Peeta!" I shout as I bound towards our group.

   "I'm coming! Give me a second!" Peeta shouts back at me. I laugh and come to a halt in front of our friends.

   "Heyo!!!!" I shout bouncing to a stop the group looks at me and laughs at my strange peppy attitude compared to yesterday.

   I smile and turn slightly red. Peeta walks up behind me coming to a stop at my side.

   "Hey guys!" Peeta says in a more chill attitude. I send a playful glare at him and the group laughs again while returning there 'hello's. After we all start talking with each other about school and other things.

   "So, Katniss, how are you liking life in Idaho?" Finnick asks as he pops a sugar cube in his mouth.

   None of us know where he manages to get all of those sugar cubes but we learned not to question it either when Finnick started going on a rampage about how sugar cubes are important for your health or something like that. I look at him and smile slightly.

   "Pretty good I guess. I'm starting to get used to it more now." My voice comes out kind if sheepish like. Finnick nods and smiles happily.

   One thing I noticed is that seems to be the only question this group ever asks me and it becomes kind of annoying after awhile when everyone else is talking and your just sitting there listening to there conversation.

  I sigh lightly and look at my fitness tracker which is also my watch. I push the button to see the time and find that the bell is about to ring.

   I look around and I don't see very many students outside I only see some and they are walking towards the entrance. My eyes widden.

   "Um, guys we should probably head inside now." I say as I stand up. I'm one of those people who is always to class on time if I can help it. I have my backpack on but no one is listening to me.

   I huff and turn on my heels walking towards the door. If there not going to listen to me then they can be late for class.

   I walk inside the building and go straight to my locker opening it up quickly. I set my backpack on the floor in front of me and open it putting most of the stuff I brought home back inside my locker unless it has to do with my next two classes.

   Once I get the stuff I need into my back pack I zip it up and put it right on my back.

   The group still hasn't come in yet. I feel kind of bad leaving them out there. But they weren't listening so... I sigh again as I shift my backpack onto my back and stand up closing my locker and locking it.

   The bell rings in four minutes and my first class is on the other side of the school. I could go there or I could go outside and tell the group.

   I grumble in fustration and walk as fast as I can outside to the willow tree. As I get there I look up from the ground and see that the group isn't there.

   Where did they go?!?! My eyes widen. I look at the time. Two minutes to get to my class across the school.

   I gasp and rush into the building I shouldn't have gone back. They are probably in there class right now and I'm standing out here like an idiot.
