Peeta POV
"Your cousins can hardly wait to see you!" said the woman I assumed to be Katniss's mother as she points to a group of people.
There are 5 of them and they all look about the same. I see Gale, the boy Katniss is always around. I don't remember hearing anything about them being cousins, and actually heard rumors that they were dating. I was sure that part wasn't true but I know if they were cousins that it would get around. Quick.
I see some of my friends in a group waiting for me to come over and I do. While we talk- which is mainly about what it was like there, in the arena, and about how their lives have been since I left. During our conversation I can't help but look over at Katniss. She is with her 'cousins' and her mother and sister. They aren't laughing like we are, but are just giving hugs and talking, some of the smaller kids are crying and I want to know what they are talking about and how they are all so happy and sad at the same time I mean, she just got back from the Hunger Games! Everyone here hates it. It's not just the people in the Seam, but all of us, we all hate Reaping Day and cry when one of our family members have been picked.
I am brought back to reality when one of my friends asks me why I am staring at her again and I scoff at him. I would think it was obvious when we were kissing in the Games and all, but guess he forgot or something.
