She is Worth It
I Just recently read the Hunger Games and I thought it was amazing. And I especially liked the love story of Katniss and Peeta, they are so cute together and I really like them together. So I decided to write this story.
It is somewhat set between The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. But the story will be a little different. It will often switch from someone POV to a general POV. And also a small summary: Katniss and Peeta have survived the hunger games, but their rebellion isn't the only problem, Peeta's loves Katniss, but Gale is also competing for her heart. And to make matters worse a new dictator arrives in District 12 after mayor Undersee suddenly dies. What will they do, and will Peeta win his love over.
Peeta's P.O.V.
I laid next to her. Softly she was sleeping, her hair loose and over her face. I looked at her not even closing my eyes for a second. She looked so beautiful.
I loved her. There was no doubt about it, I didn't act at the games. I truly did love her, from that moment she sang. I wanted to be with her so badly. And now years later I still love her, and nobody would change that.
She opened her eyes and smiled at me. Leaning forward I wanted to taste and feel her sweet lips on mine.
Then suddenly I was awake.
I was in my bed, sweat was on my forehead. Another dream of her. Katniss Everdeen. I had these dreams lately, sometimes we where in bed and I dream of kissing her, and…well details I better not include.
I acted quickly stepping out of my bed, changing into my normal clothes and running out of the house.
At instinct I ran to the big villa of the Everdeen family, the one Katniss won at the games. I knocked on the door maybe a little to loud, her mother opened. "Oh hello there Peeta how are you doing?" she asked me.
"I'm doing fine Mrs. Everdeen. Is Katniss around?" I asked her. She shook her head and said "no sorry. She just left with Gale" and this of course didn't feel right for me. "Oh alright. Thanks, have a fine day Mrs. Everdeen" I said to her with respect and I walked away.
Gale…
I didn't like it when that name came around. Sure I could handle he and Katniss being good friends. But sometimes I couldn't help but thinking of the possibility of something more between them.
And I hated that thought with instant.
I was walking around in the towns square when I heard a soft sobbing. I follow until around a corner where I find Madge Undersee crying there.
"Madge what is wrong" I asked concerned and curious. She looks up to me and says "oh Peeta its you. Sorry its just that…" she didn't finish her sentence as she began to sob loudly.
I walked to her and sat next to her and pulling my arm around her shoulder. "It will be alright Madge. But I need to know what happened" I asked.
Madge sobbed loudly but decided to talk "its my father…he drank something last night…he collapsed…my mother, nurses and doctors they couldn't save him…he's dead" she sobbed into my chest and I held her tight, confronting her while she needed me.
A while later I decided to bring her to her home. I guided her trough the streets. Which where quite full. Most people looked at the house Madge lived, it was just announced that the mayor had passed away. Madge cried, and I made sure to keep her safe.
Just then at my shock I saw Katniss and Gale standing there, holding hands. By the sight of this I felt like something was biting inside of me. It stung and felt uncontrollable, yet it stayed inside. Which was better for Gale's sake.
I knew jealousy wasn't right and that if I ever was jealous of Gale and Katniss, then it could ruin everything between me and her. And I never wanted that to happen.
"Greetings District 12" a loud and strong voice said, which could be heard by everyone.
That was chapter 1. I hope everyone who reads this will like this story. And possibly review it. Until the next chapter.
