Do you think I should continue?

Thanks.


Part 01

"Peeta stop playing and go change yourself."

"Yes mommy!" that happened exactly two minutes ago, Rosa was so happy that her son would finally start to have classes, he would be able to write his own name. Well, let me explain what I'm talking about. Peeta is a 22 year old boy that has a serious condition since he was born, in other words, he has a very rare disease so he can't learn anything very easy and he has a problem with loving people, he only show affection to his mom, not even to his dad or brothers. It was something from the condition but it was the hardest part. He has always made mean things to his teachers and they all said they wouldn't home teach him, so now at 22 his mom had hope that she finally would get someone that would teach him and not leave when he was about to learn something. Even though Peeta looked like a hot, well built 22 year old man, he acted like a boy and the doctors never could tell what his mental age was, but it was around 8-12 year old. So he was, in terms, innocent but that doesn't mean his hormones didn't get crazy sometimes, and that was the hardest part to his mom, try to explain some adult stuff to a boy that couldn't comprehend how to write his own name. But since he never showed affection to anyone Rosa never got worry about that issue.

After about 10 minutes Peeta came down the stairs looking like a happy little boy, he had put his special pants, a shirt and tie. He was looking so cute! You could see that he really wanted to learn something, but no one was there to teach him. His mom tried herself before but she really didn't know how to deal with people that has special needs in the education matter. Then the door bell rang.

Rosa opened the door and a beautiful young woman was there, she was 22 just like Peeta, but she had gone to college and had specialized in teaching kids with special needs, she was willing to try to teach him, and nothing, as mean as it would be, would make her give up on that. Rosa then looked at Peeta and said "Peeta, this is Katniss, she will be your new teacher." Peeta smiled at his mom, he was adorable with her, then his face got hard, his sweet expression turned into a frown and he looked at Katniss with iced cold eyes.

"Hi." Katniss smiled at him, but she needed to say that his expression change scared her a little bit, he sure wasn't as sweet as he looked like

"Hello Peeta, ready to start?" Peeta just nodded. Rosa showed her where they would be studying every afternoon, Katniss smiled and got her things ready.

She sat in a chair and Peeta sat in front of her, Rosa was happy, she really had hope that Katniss would finally be the one that makes Peeta a little less "sick" and a lot more "normal".

After half an hour Katniss was trying to teach him the alphabet, she couldn't believe at how basics she had to start with him, what have that boy done to the other teachers leave before he even learned the alphabet? It was weird that you could notice that he was really trying hard. Katniss realized that he really wasn't getting on the letters, so she looked at him and said:

"Lets try a different way? What do you like to do?" Peeta continued to be serious with her but answered.

"Music! Me love music!" Katniss smiled.

"In this case Peeta, we say 'I love' okay?" Peeta blushed, it was the first time she saw a reaction from him, some emotion, he repeatedly carefully.

"I love music?" Katniss nodded

"Yes. So we're gonna sing the alphabet, what do you say?" Peeta nodded and waited for her to start sing it for him. He was looking at that girl singing for him, she looked nice, at least she was trying. And she also looked beautiful, Peeta thought that his mom was the most beautiful woman in the world, but he was wrong, his teacher was. She had deep gray eyes, chocolate brown hair that she wore in a braid, she looked like a doll, even though he could tell she had no idea about that. Katniss noticed that Peeta wasn't really paying attention to her.

"Back to earth Peeta!" he got confused.

"But we're all in earth. Mommy told me that." Katniss couldn't help but smile big, he was somehow adorable. She nodded.

"I meant just pay attention okay?" Peeta nodded. After a while he was singing along with her and he wasn't missing any part of the alphabet. After a few hours Rosa walked in and saw them singing to the alphabet and she smiled at Peeta, she entered with a tray of food.

"Time for a snack!" Katniss smiled and thanked her. Rosa sat beside Katniss and while Peeta was eating/playing with his food she asked.

"How was he?" Katniss smiled.

"He's very smart. He will learn in no time!" Katniss thought that she never saw someone smiling that big. Right in that moment she knew why she loved her job that much.

After about three weeks later Peeta already knew the whole alphabet, it was time to teach him how to write the letters, Katniss knew that it wasn't going to be easy but she believed in him. As usual she sat beside him and gave him the notebook, he picked it up and she gave him a pencil, then she started to teach him how to write, he was failing badly, but Katniss knew that would happen, it was the first time that he tried to write something, of course he wouldn't get it in the first time, no one would. Peeta started to get mad and he broke the pencil's tip and looked at her with teary eyes. Katniss gave him a reassurance smile and fixed his pencil for him. He tried again, he failed again.

"I'm dumb, I will never do that." then he looked down. Katniss pulled his chin up and made him look at her.

"You are not dumb Peeta, you have a condition, but that makes you special, not dumb. Can I tell you that got me weeks to write something properly? That happens to everyone. I believe you can do it." then something she wasn't expecting happened, he hugged her, tight. He had never showed her any kind of affection since that moment she met him, but she wasn't expecting him to since he didn't showed it to his own family except his mom. Katniss locked her arms around him tight, she felt when he started crying. She played with his hair and pulled away from the hug gently.

"What is it?" The words he would say now would kill her inside.

"I just wanna be normal. Why can't I?" Katniss just held him again, she had no answer to that.

When Peeta calmed down he picked up the pencil again and tried hard to write something, he got some Ps and As but nothing more, he looked down again but Katniss said:

"Well done Peeta! You're doing awesome. Don't worry, we have all the time you need." Peeta smiled and kept on trying. When Katniss was about to leave he ran to the garden while she was talking to his mom about what happened earlier and that he was really doing awesome with school. He came back to say bye with a beautiful dandelion in his hand, he looked at Katniss and handed it to her.

"For you. You are pretty!" Katniss blushed a little and got the dandelion saying thank you and kissing his forehead. Rosa was in shock, Peeta was finally showing some affection to someone that wasn't her, she couldn't be happier, her boy would finally grow up right?

After Katniss left, Rosa walked into Peeta's room and sat on his bed beside him, he was watching some cartoon on TV.

"So, what do you think of Katniss?" Peeta blushed a little.

"She is pretty. I like her, mommy!" Rosa smiled, he was so innocent, she just pat his head and told him to take a shower cause dinner would be ready soon.

Peeta walked inside the shower and started to think of Katniss as the water fell on his body, suddenly something weird happened, he looked at himself and saw that his "peepee" was big and hard, what was that? He got terrified and turned the shower off, he ran to his mom with only a towel around his waist. His mom was there talking to Nick, his brother. He got shy and asked his mom if he could talk to her, she nodded and then he opened his towel.

"Am I sick mommy? What's this?" he was really scared. Nick couldn't help but laugh, Rosa slapped his arm and told him to go to his room. Peeta was there not knowing what to do, Rosa came closer to him and closed his towel, she made him sit and sat beside him.

"What were you doing when this happened?"

"Shower." Rosa smiled.

"I mean, what were you thinking when that happened?" Peeta thought for a few seconds then he smiled.

"Katniss!" Rosa couldn't believe in what she was hearing, but she couldn't scare Peeta even more, so she told him that if he continues to shower but with cold water that would go away and it would be back to normal. Peeta just nodded and when he was on his way to his room to finish his shower Nick came on the way.

"Sorry for laughing bro. But I know a way that is faster and better to get rid of this..." Peeta just nodded, Nick was a good brother to him, he always helped Peeta and defended him, even though he sometimes thought that Peeta hated him, then he remembered that his condition was the one that made him act like that. Nick then said "Listen, you need to rub and caress it, but you gotta do it on your own and not show anyone you hear me?" Peeta just nodded, Nick smiled "now just go..." Peeta was about to leave when he said:

"Thank you!"

Back inside the shower Peeta looked at that thing in him and thought that he would do anything for it to go away, so he grabbed it, firm. He somehow felt good and then he started to rub it, he panicked cause he got even bigger, he was about to leave the bathroom and kill Nick but it really felt great and he realized that when he thought of Katniss it would feel even better. Suddenly something spited out of him and it felt wonderful, he even screamed a little when that happened. Wow, he really needed to thank Nick for teaching him that. It was wonderful!

To be continued.
