CHAPTER 4
We enter the dining room and sit at our preferred seats. Mine happens to be next to Peeta of course. Everyone comes and sits, looking at us like we have five heads. Venia is laughing and she begins to hiccup out of laughing so hard. Everyone is looking at us, ignoring the food. Why are they all staring at us?
"Um, why are you all staring at us?" I ask.
At that, everyone bursts out laughing. Even Haymitch laughs.
"When ... I said .... you might wanna ..... .wash o.... off that ..... lips.... lipstick I meant wash it!" Venia says between fits of laughter.
After she says that, Peeta and I look at each other fully for the first time after our kisses. Everyone laughs even harder at our bewildered faces. Peeta has lipstick everywhere on his face! He looks at me and smiles, pressing down laughter. I can't hold in mine anymore. I burst out laughing because we looks so funny! Soon, all of us are laughing.
"You might wanna wash that off before Effie comes to dinner." Haymitch starts " She'll think the worst out of you guys! She'll think you-"
"LALALALALAALLAALLAALLALALALA" I say, covering my ears.
Everyone laughs again while Peeta and I scurry out of the room.
"Um .... guys, you're too late." Flavuis says, noticing Effie's pink hair in the window in the door leading into the dining room.
"Shoot! Better get ready for "advice"" I say, putting quotation marks in advice.
Everyone laughs again when Effie comes through the door. Peeta grabs my hand and gives it a squeeze telling my to be ready. Effie notices the laughter and looks genuinely confused. Her eyes scan the room and fall on Peeta and I. Everyone almost falls out of their chairs, laughing. Peeta and I are scared of what's coming next for us though. Effie gasps as she looks on our faces.

"Katniss! Peeta! Look at you guys! Goodness gracious! I know you love each other but was it really the smartest idea to kiss with such beautiful makeup on?! Katniss, wash off your face! Peeta .... go clean your whole body!"
As she says that, I look at him. He has lipstick everywhere! I smile and Effie continues her rant.
"Guys, I swear, if Katniss gets pregnant before her photo shoot in her old mockingjay outfit in May, you two will be in such BIG trouble! She won't fit in the creation! You guys, think before you act! Seriously, if you are going to ..... use protection! I never thought I would have to tell anybody this! This is why I'm not a mother! Katniss' mother should be telling you all of this! In fact, I'm going to call her right now! She can fly back to 12 to give you guys the advice you need because boy, do you need it! Do I make myself clear?" She says.
We nod.
"Go wash off now!" She says, and sits in her spot.
Peeta and I go upstairs and share the bathroom, washing off the makeup. We both look at each other and laugh.
"Oh my ... Effie! She's going to call my mom! She's gunna call my mom!" I say laughing.
"What are you? 2? Wow, she's ratting you out to your mother! Katniss, your going to get in TROUBLE!" He says guffawing.
We clean and go downstairs to eat. The food is just so amazing! Then I see it. A white rose. A white rose with drops of blood on it. The rose is in a glass, on the table. I lose it and cry and run back into my room. I break down into pieces, hoping everyone will leave me alone. They do. I lay crying on the floor and curl into the fetal position. Then I fall fast asleep in a dream.

Across the Realms [Dropped]
Disclaimer: I'll leave this on here for anyone to read. The last time I uploaded a chapter was nearly a year ago, and to all the readers who still kept their trust in me after I came back from my umpteenth hiatus, I am sorry. I will not carry on writing this; I started off without the correct foundations of a novel, nor commitment to fully finish it and I do not want to lie to you all once again. Maybe one day, I may decide to re-write the novel, with a new basis or at least a comprehensive starting point with many of the narrative errors cleared up; but, till then, this is goodbye. And, once again, thank you for the motivation you gave me. Even now, I see many emails come through with people commenting. Goodbye. A child blessed by the Astral. An unprecedented destiny. Watch his path, as he marches up the stairway of Heaven. A March of a Sovereign. [Adventure, Wuxia, Martial Arts, Fantasy] This is a Qihuan novel; it has eastern and western fantasy elements. More often than not in Xianxia or Xuanhuan there is a severe lack of character development, being a western writer I'm changing that. My characters, from my totally unbiased view, feel fleshed out and actually have emotions. This is my first attempt at a novel, I'm writing as a means to better convey my thoughts. I will, hopefully, steadily improve chapter-by-chapter. I'm very open to feedback and constructive criticism. As one can see this is a cultivation novel, so you know how this goes. I've decided to jump-start the whole rags-to-riches scenario. He is strong from the start and is given the utility to do so. *The cover art is not my own, all rights reserved to the owner. I will take it down if necessary. *The style of the recent chapters is comparatively different than Chapter 1.

Celestial Teahouse System [Slice Of Life LitRPG]
“I guess this is the end of my lifespan? How pathetic.” An infamous Immortal Emperor from Black Heaven Realm was at the end of his lifespan as he shut his old and wrinkled eyelids, awaiting his impending death with a hint of regret. However, when he was on his last breath– the serenity was disrupted by a simple-looking pebble that started glowing intensely out of nowhere as it entered his dantian and he lost consciousness. After what seemed like forever, he finally woke up and to his amazement– he discovered that his body had recovered to the state of his once youthful self with his cultivation only regressing by a little, while ending up in a foreign world filled with modern technology– Earth. He realized that a mysterious robotic voice had suddenly established its presence in his mind unknowingly, issuing him missions and rewards that would help and guide him in a certain direction. Enjoying his new life with a carefree attitude in a new world, running a teahouse with the help of the Celestial Teahouse System– Li Qu will slowly unravel the mysteries behind the pebble and the reason for his transmigration. Was he the only one to do so? Or was there a deeper meaning behind all of this? Will be releasing chapters daily until it gets knocked off the Rising Star list. From then on, it'll be Monday - Friday. Important Note: It's written in a style of a 'Chinese-translated-to-English' type of story. I get the confusion in the earlier chapters, however– NO harem. It's mostly a turn-off-your-brain chill type of story. Author's Note: As this is the first story that I've ever written, there will be occasional errors and as such, please forgive me in advance.
