Chapter 4

Katniss's POV

"I don't see why not," Says Finnick shrugging.

"Yeah, if they're that bad we won't hang out with them. And if they're cool, we have some more friends, right?" Annie says.

"I still don't know why we need anyone else, Katniss is sort of an exception since she doesn't have reputations like them. Why do we need to befriend everyone else?" Johanna asks.

"Oh come on Jo, there's no harm done in some new friends." Thresh says.

"Whatever," She says. "I like small groups of friends with lots of meaning, not the other way around."

"If they're as horrible as everyone says we just simply won't hang out with them after this." I say.

Everyone nods, and we walk off campus to eat at the mall's foodcourt where we're meeting Peeta and the Careers. I have enough money to buy lunch at school, ever since my mom went back to work and I make Prim's lunch. I buy some gyro, because I love lamb meat. Thresh and Johanna join me in line, Annie and Finnick make a beeline for the seafood, and Foxface goes to some vegetarian place.

I could never live off of fruit and veggies. But hey, if you can, congrats. I don't have the strength to give meat up for a week, let alone my entire life.

Peeta and the Careers are all at a cheeseburger place, and they sit down at a large table, Peeta sees me and waves for me to come over. My friends follow me, and we sit with them.

"Hi guys, I'm Peeta." Says Peeta.

"I'm Cato," A tall and strong boy says with blonde hair and blue eyes, bronze tan, he looks like Peeta in some ways, handsome.

"Marvel," A pale boy says, tall and skinny with light brown hair and matching eyes.

"I am Glimmer," A girl with bouncy curly blonde hair and piercing green eyes says. She has pale skin, too.

"Clove," A dark brown haired girl says, with brown eyes. A little more tan than Glimmer.

"I'm Cashmere, and this is my brother Gloss." The girl named Cashmere looks like Glimmer, just older. And Her brother Gloss looks like Cato on steroids.

"I'm Katniss," I say.

"Finnick,"

"Annie,"

"Johanna,"

"Thresh,"

"Finch, but I prefer Foxface."

"Glad we're all introduced, so should we go in a circle and say something about ourselves just like first grade?" Cato asks, getting a grin out of me.

"You have a problem with first graders?" I ask.

"No of course not, best three years of my life," He jokes. I laugh, this guy is pretty funny.

"Well, whose going first?" Finnick asks.

"I'll go." Marvel says. "Something about me... I want to own a monkey."

Some of us laugh, I nod my head and say "Interesting."

"I want to try out for the cheer team this year," Glimmer says.

Typical blonde girl. I don't sterotype blondes, I just find it entertaining when they live up to their sterotypes.

"I want to own a business when I grow up," Clove says.

"I wanna be the cheer captain." Cashmere says, again typical blonde.

"I wanna be the captain of the swim team," Says Gloss.
