It's not as it seems (Everlark story)

Chapter 2: Tricked

Chapter 2

Katniss P.O.V

I get to the classroom right on time.

I hurry into the classroom passing the teacher who was just about to close the door.

I dump my book on the seat beside my friend Annie. I sigh as I sit down.

"What happened to you?" She asks.

"Prim was a bit slow this morning", I lie.

Usually I'm a bad liar, but now when I'm panting it doesn't really sound like a lie.

Annie nods and looks ahead at the teacher.

After the class is over I walk with Annie towards our next class. Outside the classroom we meet our friends.

"Hey Peeta", I say.

He nods. No smile. No hug. No small laugh. No joke. No nothing. Just a simple, short nod.

"Hello", he says.

We used to be the best of friends. Than I did one mistake and I lost him forever. He can be around me, but he doesn't look at me the same way, he just... Accepts my presence.

I can't blame him though, I made a huge mistake, and now I have to pay for it.

"Hello ms Kitty-Cat", Finnick says and bows before me.

"Finnick you're silly", I say.

"I know", he laughs before kissing Annie, his girlfriend.

Finnick is like a brother to me, he means so much, and if he had also turned his back on me like Peeta, I don't know what I would've done.

I don't blame Peeta for turning his back on me, if I could, I would turn my back on me too, but unfortunately I have to live with myself. And I do not like that.

"Sweetie are you okay?" Madge asks.

"What?" I ask looking at her.

Everyone are looking at me, I can feel their eyes on me. Well beside Peeta's.

"You just kind of zoned out there for a while", Madge says.

"Yeah are you okay?" Annie asks.

"I'm okay", I lie.

They know I'm lying. But just as they're about to say something, our teacher comes and their words remains unspoken.

After school the girls comes with me to pick up Prim. They've been behaving odd.

Annie sits by the wheel because she said that she felt like driving. So I take the passenger seat beside her and Madge sits in the back seat.

Prim stands outside the entrance with Ali, Annie's little sister.

Prim opens the door and they jump in beside Madge.

"Hey Madge", Prim says happily. "Hey Katniss, Annie".

"Hey girls", Annie says.

Ali and Prim looks at each other and giggles. Madge clears her throat and gives them a glance I can't read.

Okay what is happening? Why are they all behaving so odd?

I shake my head and looks out of the window. They're crazy. But they are the only once who still treats me with respect, them and Finnick, so I love them even though they are crazy. And I like that they are crazy.

"Can we stop to eat?" Ali asks. "I'm hungry".

"I'm hungry too", Prim says.

"Sure, where do you want to eat?" I ask, looking at them.

"Hmmm..." They say starting to think.

"Burger King?" Ali asks Prim.

I hold back a sigh. All this junk food makes me crazy. Oh well, they're twelve.

"Yeah!" Prim shouts.

Annie giggles and drive towards a Burger King.

Once the girls got their burgers, they're happy.

Annie start to drive to somewhere I don't know. Where the hell is this girl driving my car?

"Annie where are you going?" I ask.

"Oh just... Nowhere", she shrugs.

"Somewhere", I argue.

"No", she says.

"Annie!"

"We're here", Madge says.

I look out of the window. We're in front of a building.

"And where is 'here' exactly?" I ask.

"They're filming America's Got Talent", Prim says excited.

Oh hell no!

"You didn't!" I hiss horrified.

"We did!" They all shout happily.

"Prepare yourself to knock the judges out their chairs with your voice!" Madge says.

"Because you my friend, got talent", Annie says.

Oh I think I'm gonna throw up.
