-Katniss' POV-

I'm casually walking home with a ducking busted lip, bleeding nose and a swollen eye from where the punched me. Fucking dickheads.

I storm in the house, slamming the door behind me. I walk to the kitchen and grab a cloth and wet it then clean all the blood off my lip and nose, I grab an ice pack and wrap in in another dry cloth the put it over my eye. My nose finally stops bleeding and so does my lip.

Louise, Mark and Michael must of heard the door slam because they come in the kitchen and see me leaning over the sink, trying to swill the blood out of my mouth from my bloody lip while holding the cloth an ice lack to my eye. I turn around and jump when I see them behind me.

"Sweetie, what happened?" Louise asks as she comes over.

"Uhh nothing much except a busted lip, bloody nose and a swollen eye" I shrug.

"Why?"

"I don't have a clue, this group of kids in my yeah came over when Peeta was trying to talk to me, he stormed off and they attacked me. Peeta obviously sent Rye over and they were leaving as Rye got there and saw my face"

"You don't deserve none of this for a girl your age" Mark says.

I look down at my feet. "I've gotten used to it over the years" I mumble.

"You don't have to talk about sweetie, it's okay, we understand"

~later in the day~

I get dressed out of my now bloody white crop top and change it into a long sleeve red crop top with some bracelets on each arm.

As I walk out, I come face with Rye, Peeta and the group walking up to the door as they've just finished school.

They see me and gape at my face. After all I have a busted lip and swollen eye. I walk around them as I stuff my hand in my jacket pockets after I plug my earphones in.

I carry onto the pavement and see them still looking at me. I turn my head away and see lots of people from school. They start laughing at me until they see my face and stand there shocked as I walk past.

I don't know how long I walk for but I end up at my fathers grave. That's where I properly break down and cry and sob as I fall to my knees in front of it.

After about an hour I decide to leave. As I walk home I come across the park. I go and sit on the swing where I stay for at least another hour. I see two families come in, one with 2 sons and 2 daughters and the other with 2 daughters and a son. That's when it's my cue to leave. It's not empty anymore so I can't just let everything out anymore. I get up and feel a little faint, I think nothing of it and carry on walking, as I get to the other end though it feels as if the room is spinning around me as everything starts to blurr and I fall to the floor. The last thing I see is one of the mothers rush over as she sees her daughter by me. That's when I fall to darkness.
