I sit on the chair of the vanity letting Lucy Gray brush my hair before Aunt Tigris gets here. She is styling me and Lucy Gray so she will start with Lucy Gray and then come to me to do my makeup hair and put me in a dress. I don't get to pick which one I wear which is a bit sad but I guess this is part of Capitol life not being able to dress yourself for special occasions. Lucy Gray finishes brushing my hair and that is when I hear a knock on the front door

"Lucy Gray, Briar Rose come here I want you to meet someone" Coriolanus says

Lucy Gray helps me put on a bathrobe and we both walk out of my room towards the front door. I stay close to Lucy Gray's side feeling nervous to meet this new person who is now family. When we get to the front door I see a woman who is about as tall as Coriolanus with blond hair and greenish eyes. I hide a little behind Lucy Gray. Aunt Tigris crouches down so that she is within eye level of me

"Hello I'm your Auntie Tigris, you must be Briar Rose, I have heard so much about you" Aunt Tigris says smiling softly

"It's nice to meet you" I say quietly avoiding eye contact

She stands out and extends her hand out to Lucy Gray

"It's nice to finally meet you in person Lucy Gray" Aunt Tigris says

"It's nice to meet you too" Lucy Gray says shaking her hand

"Now I was thinking a look like at the reaping especially with your makeup and you will wear the dress" Tigris says going towards a room

Lucy Gray follows behind her leaving me and Coriolanus in the doorway

"How was your bath sweetheart?" Coriolanus asks with a smile

"It was good" I say fiddling with my hands

"That's good. Do you have a name for your new bunny?" Coriolanus asks

"Flopsy" I say

Coriolanus chuckles a little bit

"That is a very good name" Coriolanus says

I smile a little bit

"Thank you" I say looking down at my feet

"Would you like a cookie before you get all spiffed up?" Coriolanus asks

I nod following Coriolanus to the kitchen and he takes a cookie out of a jar and hands it to me. I take a bite of the cookie and I smile. It tastes so good

"What type of cookie is this?" I ask after my first bite

"Oatmeal chocolate chip" Coriolanus says smiling

"This is my favorite" I say smiling and taking another bite

Coriolanus chuckles a little bit

"That's only one type of cookie there are so many more flavors" Coriolanus says

My eyes go wide

"How many more?" I ask looking at him

"So many more" Coriolanus says smiling

"Let's go show Lucy Gray what you have" Coriolanus says taking my hand and leading me towards the room Lucy Gray and Aunt Tigris are in

We walk in and Lucy Gray is already in mamas dress and Aunt Tigris is doing her hair

"Lucy Gray look what Coriolanus gave to me" I say running up to Lucy Gray and showing her the cookie

"A cookie? That's very nice" Lucy Gray says side eying Coriolanus
