Chapter 4: The Capitol

Chapter 4: The Capitol

Things have been a little bit awkward between me and Jace the past day, and I keep wondering how things would have been if we had actually kissed. Right now I am sitting on my bed on the train waiting for us to arrive at the capitol, Effie told me it would be soon. I look off in the distance and I can see the tiny dot that must be the Capitol. I decide to go out into the main cart, where we ate meals and watched T.V. When I come out I see that Effie, Haymitch, and Jace are all having a conversation, and they were all laughing, but when they saw me they immediatly stopped. I knew what this meant. "You guys were talking about me, weren't you?" I say coldly. It really wasn't like me to be so assuming, but part of me told me I was right.

"No..." Jace coughed. Effie swallowed hard and added,

"Of course not dear, that would just be rude!" I rolled my eyes and sat on the other side of the room. I couldn't believe Jace! I thought he was better than that!

We were coming up to the Captiol fast, and despite my grumpy mood, I just had to go take a look at the wonderous Capitol. I saw hundreds of people from the Captiol, fans I may call them waving at me from the other side of the train. Jace decided to stand next to me and I glared at him for a long second, before returning to waving at all the raving pink and purple monsters waiting at the train station for our arrival. The train finally come to a stop, and we walk out all four of us, Effie, Haymitch, Jace, and myself. Cameras are pointing at us from all around, as we get into a small car taking us to our stylist to get us ready for tonights carriages. After about 10 minutes we arrive, and the papparazis have seem to have died down a little. They escourt me in the opposite direction from Jace, and I smile I want NO part of that jerk. I mean one second he's about to kiss me, and then he is talking about me behind my back, with Effie, and Haymitch! My prep stylish get all my body hair off of me with different waxes, and shaving techniques, and finally when they finish they inform me that my stylist will soon be in. I wait a couple more minutes feeling a little bit embarrassed of standing there naked, my stylist, Freeda comes in she is wearing a bright pink romper (that she looks hideous in) and lime green eye shadow, and lipstick. She is medium sized and she sorta scares me. She stares at me and my body for another five minutes and then says,

"We are going to dress you up in, a neon yellow, and orange, knee high dress, that is almost sorta like a cone at the bottom so it doesn't stick to you, but sticks out." I smile and nod as if I like this idea, but really I'm not too confident about it. "Oh, I hope you like it!" she exclaims. I give a soft laugh and then reply,

"I'm sure I will," Hahaha no, I think to myself.

"I'll be right back,' she assures me. She runs out of the room and comes back a few seconds later with the dress she was explaining, on the bright neon yellow dress there is a sash that is neon orange and reads, 'Miss Danger'. The dress also has neon orange three finger wide shoulder straps, and a neon orange rim, and last but not least had neon oranges stiches. Freeda also showed me the neon orange miners hat I would be wearing. I would be wearing neon yellow high heels, with neon orange bows on the toes. I guess after trying it on I was a little more ok with the idea. Freeda took about another hour on my make-up, though she only put on neon yellow eye shadow and neon orange lipstick, she just trying to give me a glowing effect and it worked. She curled my perfectly straight hair, painted my nails both neon yellow and neon orange, I have to admit it was pretty cool. After she was done beautifying me I thought I looked somewhat pretty, at least I wasnt covered in ash right? I am the first out of the two district 12 members to arrive at my carriage which is suprising, because I thought girls took longer. When Jace finally emerges from his dressing room his jaw drops at the sight of me, but he quickly closes it. I blushes and I look at Jace, he is wearing a neon yellow long sleeved shirt and neon orange overalls, his face is covered in fake cuts, and a little bit of ash. He is wearing neon yellow leather boots and a neon yellow miners hat. I turn pale, they made us matching! I didn't want to be matching to Jace at all, it was embarrassing! Why didn't they just kill me now?!?
