Chapter 5

"Jen," I heard soft whispering from beside me the next morning. "Jennifer," Josh whispers while brushing hair from my face. "Jennifer Lawrence," I've had enough.

"What?" I groan, rolling onto my stomach. "It's your birthday!" "No duh dumbass." I mumble, waving my hand to tell him to leave me alone. "Jen," the whispering started again. "Jen, Jen," "Josh shut up!" "But if you don't get out we're going to be late!" I groan and pry my eyes open. "Theirs those eyes," he whispers and sits up, pulling me with him. He pushes me into the shower and I get dressed. I pull on some shorts and a loose tank top and put my hair in a ponytail. I neglected to put makeup on, knowing that once is stepped onto the set I would have a pie in the face. I walk down the hall to see a plate of bacon, a huge stack of pancakes, and a bunch of scrambled eggs on the island. "Josh, you didn't have to make me breakfast." "But it's your birthday, you get to be my queen today, I am your servant." He smiles and bows his head. I kiss him quickly before digging into breakfast. We start talking, laughing, enjoying each other when I look out the window. "Josh," I wonder, starring into the darkness. "Hm," he mumbles, not bothering to look up from his food. "Why is it so dark? And 6am?" I gasp looking at my iPhone. "We don't have to be at set until 8!" "I know that!" he smiles at me while putting the bacon and pancakes into a container for me to take to my trailer. "Then why are we up?" I groan, flopping onto the couch. "Because we are going to the DMV. You have to get a new license before you can drink!" He smiles and shakes my shoulders. After that, he skips around the penthouse singing 'Happy Birthday' to me. As I hear it echo through the bedroom as he gets ready I shout "Shut up Josh! You're going your queen a headache," I grab my purse, phone, and double check for my license before we head out the door to the DMV. After waiting for a while I finally get my new license. I think Josh was more excited than me. "Ok, now lets get to set," he pauses before adding; "After we stop to get coffee and donuts." I smile and entwine my fingers with his. We ride to the nearest Dunkin Donuts screaming along to the music on the radio. "Aren't we fun at 7am?" Josh laughs as we get our stuff. The closer we get to set, the more nervous I start to get. I know that Josh wants to spend time with me on my 21st birthday, but my best friends told me they were going to take me out. We arrive at set and it takes me a second to realize because I was thinking to hard. "Oh sorry, spaced out." I laugh, and head in with Josh. No pie. Oh shit, that means Liam has some sort of prank set up. Out of the corner of my eye I see him talking to Woody and Elizabeth. As his eyes catch mine, he quickly runs over and picks me up. "My best friend is 21! My best friend is 21!" He continues to scream and spin me around. "Another one that's giving me a headache." Everyone starts to crowd around and congratulate me on my birthday. Some of the crew were whispering to each other and laughing. 'Is their something on my face?' I think to myself. Soon enough I break away and go to my trailer to get ready. Today we would be working on the opening scene of the games. We would then skip to the forest fire, then the lake to when I cut the Tracker Jacker nest. Then that's it for the day.

Run. That's the first thing that comes to mind. Run away from that bloodbath. As

I continued on with what my stage directions instructed me to do, I searched through the contents of the backpack I picked up. I started on with my hike again and strapped myself into the tree I chose. The cut for a second, just to start a fire, then we started where we left off. We ran through everything until we got to the Tracker Jacker scene. "Action!" I closed my eyes, waiting for the lines to come.

"Pss, pss," 'Rue' points to the nest above my head and I start climbing the tree to get to it. I begin cutting and eventually the best falls. We pretend we are being stung and swarmed with Tracker Jackers and the actress playing Glimmer falls dead. I have to pretend I'm having crazy hallucinations and then have to pass out. As soon as my body hits the ground I hear heavy footsteps. Getting closer and closer. "Cut! That's a wrap for the day!" Jason hollers to everyone. Just as I start sitting up I see Liam throwing a pie in my face. "Haha!" He screams, falling over laughing with everyone else. "Very funny." One of the crew members hands me a towel and I wipe the whipped cream off my face. "You know, I really fucking hate you Liam." I sigh, heading to my trailer. "But you love me!" He hollers before heading to his trailer. I take a really quick shower and wash the pie remnants from my body. I don't realize it, but as I'm throwing on my bra and underwear I start walking around my trailer and singing. I start pulling on my tight, jean shorts and my tank top when there's a knock on the door. Just by the softness of the knock I know it's not Josh. Before I can answer my two best friends Britney and Devin come barging in. "Happy Birthday!" They scream, tackling me to the floor. "Ok," Britney says and fixes her hair. She reaches in her bag and pulls out a tight crop top, sandals, a curling wand, and a bag of makeup. "We're taking you out to get drunk." They pull me into the bathroom and ten minutes later they step back and admire their work. "You look beautiful."

They gush, hugging me. "Now lets go get drunk!" We all yell and grab our purses before heading out of my trailer. "Wait," I almost yell and they stop. "I have to say goodbye to Josh." They sigh, pressing a hand to their hearts. "Go say goodbye to your boyfriend." They shove me away and I knock on his door. "Hold on!" I hear a bit of shuffling before he reveals his shirtless self. "Wow, Jen, you look beautiful." He looks me up and down. "Ok," I giggle, reading his mind. "The crop top was not my idea. It was those sociopaths!" I say pointing to my fangirling best friends. "Jen," Josh says quickly, looking around. "I have a present for you. I'm just not sure if I would see you tonight." I blush and step inside. "You didn't have to get me anything." "Oh yes I did." He reveals a small box and I open it, gasping. "Josh, it's beautiful." "I could say the same about you," I smile at his words and admire the necklace as he wraps it around my neck. It was a silver chain with a diamond hanging off. "Thank you so much. I love you Josh," I say hugging him quickly. "I love you too Jen. Now go get drunk!"
