For a teenage girl there were very few times in her life where she wanted to look nice. On the days of the reaping it had mostly been her mother's wish for Madge to dress up, but she hardly protested for a number of reasons. Other days included her birthday, but to dress up because she was going to see someone she liked? Well that never happened in District 12. Maybe it was because back home the thought of someone being interested in her seemed ridiculous. No one knew her well enough, except for maybe Katniss and among the few boys she did find attractive, well one of them didn't really notice her until now. It wasn't their first date, but each time she was hoping that it wouldn't be their last. Her fear of saying the wrong thing still weighed on her mind and while she wanted to make sure she looked nice, she didn't want to overdue it. Except being as nervous as she was didn't seem to stop her from taking one last glance at herself in the mirror before leaving her apartment. It didn't take long at all to reach Gale's door, but it did feel like minutes had passed by instead of a few seconds. Madge told herself to relax a little and that they were only having dinner. He's made her food before and they've even kissed! Which shouldn't have added more nerves but of course it did. She shook her head and cleared her mind of thoughts of kissing Gale. Instead she let out some air and knocked on the door. |
