Peeta's Pov
First day of Freshman year. I texted Katniss I would be picking her up and got dressed in dark blue jeans and a white shirt. Since I live in a bakery I got cinnamon buns for breakfast, rye bread and ham for lunch, cheese buns for Katniss, and chocolate bread for snack. I'm a baker's boy.
"Hey, Katniss," I said, spinning her around. She giggled and hopped in the car, my blue Ferrari. On the way there we saw Clove skateboarding to school. "She's good," Katniss said surprised. I nodded. We were about to call out her name when we saw Cato gaping at her. He was on his board so distracted that he ran right into her. He apologized so much, even though she said it was fine ten times. Katniss giggled and I laughed. "Smooth!" I called out to Cato, once Clove left. He was always smooth around girls, always. He turned beet red and glared. I stuck my tongue out and drove off.
Clove seemed to hit it off with our friends. She and Johanna both loved sharp pointy things and were good at punching. She and Glimmer both loved fashion and she and Annie love swimming. She and Madge like to play in the meadows and climb trees and she likes to sing. I know Katniss likes singing. She claims to not be very good at it, but she is. I've heard her once. At the meadows with Prim. I was walking with my brothers Richard and Jake, and I heard her singing. We've been friends for eight years and dating this year, and I've never heard her. Her voice was sweet and had a nice melody.
At lunch Finnick ate an entire pack of sugar cubes, as always. We all laughed, and I noticed Cato, the loudest of us all, was dazed off. He kept staring at Clove, with a dreamy expression. I snapped my fingers in front of his face. "Cato? Hello?" he snapped up, looking around. "Huh?" he said stupidly. I grinned. "You like her,huh?" He turned bright red. "Wha-no! No, I don't." He looked really stupid. "Sure, Loverboy."
He seemed quite annoyed since that was my nickname from him, ever since he found out I liked Katniss. But hey, she's my girl.
