Author's Note: This is my first fanfic and reviews are greatly appreciated. I am also sorry for it being so short. Enjoy!
I sit on the couch in my "house". Lonely. My family wants to have nothing to do with me. I asked and even begged them to move in with me. No luck. I'm stuck here to wallow in my sorrow all by myself. Even Katniss is more considerate, and that says a lot. My "lover" and I haven't been on the best of terms ever since the games ended. After a minor altercation she denies to even spit in my direction. You simply ask her a simple question about her motivations and your the bad guy. Women these days. Sure makes me glad I don't like them. It sure gets boring just sitting here, consuming oxygen. I lay down on the couch and slowly drift to sleep until I'm interrupted by a knock on my door. I get up and walk to the door. I look through the peep hole and see Katniss. Shit. What does she want? I reluctantly open the door.
˝Hello Katniss" I say. She looks at me with the usual coldness in her eyes.
"May I come in?" She asks. Before I have a chance to answer she pushes past me and comes in. I guess she took my silence as a yes.
"Peeta we can not go on like this." She says, sitting on the couch in the living room.
"Like what?" I ask nonchalantly. If looks could kill I'd be dead.
"Acting like we both don't exist. Look, I don't care if you like me romantically or not because quite frankly I think we have no chemistry, but we can't just ignore each other. We need to get on a more friendly base." She says, putting emphasis on no chemistry.
"I think I'd like that." I admit, smiling a bit. She opens her mouth to respond but is interrupted by the sound of her name being yelled. She quickly stands up and opens the my door. A moment later she comes back with another visitor. I turn around to see who it is and my jaw drops.
"Peeta." Gale says, nodding his head as a greeting. My mouth goes dry. Out of all the people in my house is has to be him!
"G-gale" I say, giving him a weak nod. Katniss gives me a puzzling look.
"Well, we gotta go... talk later?" Katniss says, looking at me with concern.
"Y-yea sure" I stutter, sitting down in a nearby chair to keep my balance. She and Gale leave and I let out a sigh of relief. I go back to my couch and fall into it. I actually somewhat enjoyed having other humans in my house. To bad I'll never get used to it.
