Life of the Mockingjays (Sequel to Panem High)

New Friends?

Katniss P.O.V

We are all waiting for James to arrive. We have been told not to crowd him as he is very shy but he sounds so cute. "Does he have your hair? Your smile? Your voice? Your annoying personality?" Johanna cuts clove off and everyone laughs. "I am a very nice person" he says and I nod. "Sure you are" I say sweetly and he rolls his eyes. Clove nudges his side and kisses his cheek. I am currently sitting on Peetas lap because there wasn't enough space on the couch and his arms are wrapped around me. He kisses my cheek and I smile. "Katniss" he whispers and I turn around to have him peck my lips. I roll my eyes and smile. "When is he going to get he-" clove starts but is interrupted by the doorbell. "Never mind" she says and Cato stands up to get the door. "Hey mom" I hear him say. "I am responsible" he whines. "Well clove is here" he says annoyed. "My girlfriend mom" he groans. "Clove come here!" He shouts and clove laughs while running to the front door. "Hello dear" his mom says. "Hi" clove says shyly. "Where's James?" He asks her. "You need to come and help me get the ramp down. It's stuck" she says and Cato sighs before walking out and clove talks to his mom.

A few minutes later Cato comes back into the house pushing James. "Hi" he says shyly and I smile. "Hey" I say. "I'm Katniss , this is Peeta" I say pointing behind me to Peeta. "James" he says quietly and smiles. "I'm finch" "thresh" "gale" "Johanna" "cassie" "marvel" "Annie" "Finnick"

"And I'm clove" clove says and James smirks. "Cato never shuts up about you" he says and clove blushes. "All good things I hope" she says laughing. "Oh yeah he's always like 'cloves perfect' or 'I have the best girlfriend ever' " he says and I laugh at his impression of Cato. "You can shut up now" Cato says ruffling his hair. He rolls his eyes at his brother. "Which 2 boys want to share a room?" I ask. "I'll just share with clove" Cato says and I wiggle my eyebrows at him making him blush. "Shut up you share a room with Peeta" he points out. "Your point is?" I ask and he just laughs. "Will I invite Alex and Ashton over?" I ask Cato and he nods. "Yeah if you want. What time is it?" He asks. "It's only 5" I say and he nods. "Okay" he says and I get my phone out. I call Alex and after a few rings she answers. "Hello?" She says. "Hi I was wondering if you and Ashton want to come over. Catos brother is your age and is staying for the week" I say. "Yeah we'll come over and Cato has a brother?" She says and I laugh. "Yeah long story I'll tell you later" I say. "Alright well just walk over" she says. "No I'll come and get you" I say. "It's fi-" she starts but I cut her off. "Be there in 10" I say and hang up before she can answer. "Alex and Ashton are coming over" I say and everyone nods. "Alex and Ashton?" He asks. "They're friends of ours. Your age ,they will be over soon" I say. "I'm just going to get them" I say and grab my keys. "I'll come" Peeta says and follows me.

We both jump in the car. Not literally and make our way to Alex's house. "Katniss I have a secret" Peeta says and I laugh. "You don't have a secret brother too do you?" I ask and he shakes his head. "What?" I asks and he smirks. "I can't tell you" he says. "Why not!" I whine. "Because" he says and I laughs. "Tell me" I say pouting. "Fine" he says sighing. "I love you" he says and I roll my eyes. "Seriously" I say. "I love you too" I mumble while kissing his cheek lightly. He smiles and leans against the window. I chuckle slightly. "What?" He asks. "Just admiring my boyfriend" I say and he smiles while taking my hand. "Love you" I say smiling. "Love you too" he says and we both smile.

After a few minutes we finally arrive and Alex comes out wearing skinny jeans and a nirvana band shirt with a beanie and converse. Ashton is wearing black skinny jeans ,- white t-shirt and black beanie with converse. They are such an adorable couple. "Hey guys" I say as they get in. "Hey Kat" they say. "Okay there's something you should know before you meet James. He's really shy so be nice" I say and they both nod. "And he's got dyslexia so sometimes it's hard for him but he was bullied" I say and Alex looks upset. "I hate bullies" she says and we all agree.
