(Prom)

I already choose my dress for prom it's a beautiful red dress.

Of course Glimmer said it's skimpy but I ignored her rudeness

Of course Glimmer said it's skimpy but I ignored her rudeness. Annie is helping me get ready because the boys are on their way. I didn't curl my hair or straighten it. I just washed it and let it be. I put on some light makeup.

"The boys are here!" My mom yells. Me and Annie take a deep breath. She goes first. Finnick gasps and smiles. They hug and kiss. They walk to the limo and now I go. Peeta looks at me and his eyes light up. He doesn't speak, he just stares at me. I walk up to him. He stays speechless.

"Well say something" I say.

"Your so beautiful, I mean Katniss... you look amazing, no words can describe your beauty"  he says. I smile.

"You don't look to bad yourself" I say. He gives me a quick peck on the lips and we go to the limo where Annie and Finnick are waiting. When we finally get to the school the party is pretty cool. I never went to prom but this is my last year and Peeta really wanted to go. We walk in the party and me and Annie go to the girls we tart to talk. We start to dance when it's time to announce the prom king and queen.

"Alright for ours prom queen......Katniss Everdeen!"
I'm in shock. Me? Annie pushes me on the stage and I get a crown.

"And our king...... Gale Hawthorne!".
I freeze. Gale gets on stage.

"Alrighty then, Katniss dance with your king". My king? Gales not my king. I jump off the stage and everyone looks confused. I'm looking for my king. I finally lay eyes on my king. I grab his hand and bring him to the middle of the dance floor.

"Katniss your supposed to dance with your king" Gale says impatiently.

"Yeah my king. Your not my king. Peeta's my king, Gale your 'the' king but your not 'my king'"I say. I hear aw's from the students.

"Ok Then, Gale go get your queen and Katniss you can dance with your king". I smile I grab my crown and put it on Peeta. Gale gets Foxface. I thought Gale broke up with Foxface? we dance. Peeta looks so happy.

"Why didn't you dance with Gale?" He asks.

"Because your my king" I say and peck his lips. We dance until the music stops. Me and Peeta go to our friends and they all give us cute little faces.

"Aww Katniss that was so cute" Annie says.

"Yeah, yeah" I say.

"Who can't wait until graduation!" Glimmer squeals.

"I can't wait to go to college with Peeta" I say gripping his arm. He smiles. We keep dancing and talking until it's time to go home. The way home is quite. Peeta comes over and I change into grey sweatpants and a black cropped tank top. Peeta changed into grey sweatpants and a white shirt. We cuddle in the bed. God I'm tired. I feel my eyes get droopy.

"It's ok you can sleep" he says.

"Are you tired?" I ask.

"No not really" he says.

"I can stay up" I say.

"No Katniss you can sleep" he says. I cuddle closer to him. My eyes get heavy

" I love you" I whisper.

"I love you too" he says and I go into a deep sleep listening to his heart beat.
