Katniss POV:
"Bye little duck I'm heading to school!" I shout to Prim as I walk out the door.
I grab my phone and see I have a new message from my best friend, Madge.
Madge: "Hey, where are you? Late again? : )" it's not my fault I live so far from school. Going to school from the seam is a long walk!
Me: "Ha-Ha. Your funny, I'll be there soon. Sorry for not being an early bird!" she knows I sleep for as long as I possibly can!
Madge: "Well hurry up, we're waiting for you!" I put my phone back in my purse and continuing walking to school.
"Hey guys!" I shout as I walk up to all my friends. "Hey Kat!" they all say at the same time. They are way too perky for the first day of school. Why aren't they sad it's the first day of school? That means no more summer!
"Why are you all so happy today?" I mumble sounding like I'm halfway asleep.
"We are happy because it's the first day of school." Cato says just as the bell rings.
"Well, Bye guys." I say as I head over to my locker. I open my locker and get my books.
*RINGG* the bell rings and I stand up to go to lunch. I walk over to my locker and grab my lunch. Of course my locker is on the opposite side of the school then the lunch room, so by the time I get to my lunch table everyone's already there, Madge, Clove, Peeta, Cato, and Marvel.
"Hey guys." I sit down next to Madge and Clove like I always do. Suddenly everyone stops talking and stares at me. "Um. Hey, what's going on?" I wonder why they just stopped talking, last year they would just continue talking normally.
"Nothing…" they all mumble under their breath. Why are they being so weird?
"Okay. Whatever." I say and start eating my lunch.
"So, Katniss… You still single?" Clove asks as she walks over to Peeta and kisses him on the check. Clove and Peeta have been inseparable since 7th grade!
"Yeah, Ha-ha. You think I wouldn't tell you if I had a boyfriend." I say stating the obvious. Gosh why is everyone so weird today? Now that I realize it, our whole table is dating someone at the table except me and Cato. I look at Cato and get lost in his light blue eyes. I cannot possibly be falling for Cato. We have been friends forever; I don't want to risk our friendship.
"Oh ok. I was just wondering if you were keeping a secret from us. Because I know you and Gale are pretty good friends." Clove says as she comes and sits back down by me. When she says that Cato looks down and frowns. What's he sad about? It can't possibly be Gale?
"No. Gale and I are just friends. I promise. We have been friends since we were born, but just friends." I say. I couldn't even think of ever liking Gale that way.
