The Big Move: A Hunger Games Fanfic

Chapter 3

I had just woken up and I realized that I had forgotten to call Annie as soon as I got done packing. I guess I had gotten just a tad bit sidetracked. The clock said that it was 8:30. I was planning on calling Annie but then realized that she sleeps in late, so I decided to call her later.

I have a feeling that I might not be going back to sleep anytime soon, so I decide to get ready. I got up out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash my face and do the other stuff. I go through my closet and decide what to wear. I don't know how warm it is so I decide to open a window to see how warm or cold it is. As soon as I opened the window, I was greeted with a splash of warm air on my face. The automatic choice for what to wear today is absolutely certain. A pair of shorts and a regular t-shirt or a tank top.

i rummaged through my closet to see what t-shirts or tank tops I have. After looking for about an hour, I found this really cute tank top that has a heart on it and has palm trees in the heart, and it says 'Forever Young'. I pull out a pair of black high-waisted shorts to go along with the shirt. For the shoes, I find my black Converse.

I take my hair out of its original braid so it falls in a cascade of waves down my back. I slightly straighten my hair and it still looks kind of wavy. I decide to go for a natural looking make-up routine today since I don't want to go all out. I put on a light coat of foundation on my face and then add a couple of brush strokes of blush on my face. I then put some eyeliner on the base of my eyelids and then apply a little bit of pink eyeshadow. To make my eyes more bolder, I pull out the mascara that I brought that had a thick brush on it. I apply a couple of coats of mascara, but I make sure that I don't put too much on. And now I'm done.

I walk downstairs quietly because I assume that mom and Prim are still sleeping. Looks like that I am the first one awake, so I will have to do everything quietly. For example, if I were to watch TV, I would have to turn the TV down so I wouldn't wake them up. If you're in my family and you woke someone up, it would NOT be pretty.

I remember I had accidentally woken up Prim a few years ago. I then thought to myself, 'If she finds out that I had woken her up, I would've been screwed.' I had accidentally woken her up by running through the house and right by her room. Let's just say that it was not a pretty after sight. Lesson short, it's not the best thing if you woke someone up.

The clock says that it's about 9:30. From when Annie and I had sleepovers, she was usually up my 9:00-ish, maybe a little later. I decide to call her later. She's probably still trying to wake up. Then, just out of the blue, my phone rang. 'Who in the world could that be?' I thought to myself. I looked at my phone screen to see who it was. It was Annie.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Katniss."

"Hey, Annie! What's up?"

"Nothing much. You were supposed to call me yesterday!"

"I'm sorry! I got distracted."

"It's ok. You free to hang out today?"

"From what I know. I'll be over in a few."

"Kk! Bye!"

"Bye!"

I grabbed a granola bar and I left a note on the counter that says: Mom and Prim, I went over to Annies for a couple hours or so. Be back later. Katniss

~*Annie's POV*~

Katniss will be over here in a few minutes. I need to get the boys up. I don't usually do this but, "Boys! Get your lazy butts out of bed! Katniss will be over here in a few minutes!" I yell. I don't usually yell but that's one of the ways to get them out of bed. Not even 10 seconds later, I hear running and yelling like "Get up, Peeta! A girl is coming over in a few minutes!" In my whole life, I've only known one person that I know will say that. And that person is Finnick.

I texted Katniss to see when exactly she was going to be here. She texted back within a few minutes saying that she was going to be here around 10:00. It's 9:45 right now. I yell again,"You boys better be presentable in 15 minutes!"

"Yes, mom!" I assumed that was Finnick who said that. Wouldn't imagine anybody else would say that.

9:54. The boys are downstairs dressed and better looking than they did earlier this morning.

"Ann, why did we have to get all spiffied up for?" Finnick asked.

"Because I don't want Katniss to think that you two are total slobs," I reply.

10:00 had just arrived and Katniss should be here any minute. Someone was knocking at the door. I assumed that Katniss is probably here. I was right! She's here!

"Hey Kat!" I exclaimed.

"Hey Ann! Hey guys!" Kat said.

"Hey Kat!" they said.

Now let the fun day begin. :)
