Peeta and Katniss: Life After the War

After the War and the Katniss and Peeta live in District 12 with Haymich. Gale moved to a different district because of his hated towards Peeta. Katniss's mother moved to District 2. Katniss and Peeta are in love.

Peeta's POV:

Peeta: I arrive at Katniss's house. 'Katniss" I say as a ring the doorbell no answer. Haymich arrives at the door and as usual he is drunk.

Haymich: "So what is Katniss cooking tonight please tell me we are not eating squirrel" Haymich groans.

Peeta: " I do not know she is not answering the door. Did she come home?" I ask worriedly

Haymich: ' How should I know you are her boyfriend!" Haymich yells.

Peeta: I continue to scream 'Katniss" but she is not answering.

Katniss's POV:

I Finally caught that stupid squirrel. Oh brother its past sunset Peeta must be worried. Peeta and I have this thing where we always have dinner at sunset and Haymich joins us. We rotate houses back and forth. Dinner is at my house tonight. I sprint home. When I get there Peeta and Haymich are there.

Peeta: " Where have you been" he says worriedly

Katniss: "It was a bad hunting day today" I reply

Peeta: " You scared me to death. Just please arrive back at sunset. You almost gave me a heart attack," he says

Katniss: "Ok I am so sorry it will never happen again"

Peeta: " Haymich can you please go inside for a minute." He says nicely

Haymich: " I was going to go in anyway." he says

Katniss: Before Peeta can say anything. I pull him in for a lingering kiss. After a couple of seconds he pulls away

Peeta: " I love you Katniss," he says

Katniss: " I … Lets go inside Haymich is probably starving" I say. I love Peeta but I just do not say it. He understands that I am not a girl that openly shares my feelings a lot. I know he wants me to say it but it's just not the time. I will tell him soon. I grab his hand and walk into my house. I get to making the stew. Peeta brought some bread and Haymich brought 2 bottles of wine. Peeta brought bread.

Katniss: " Haymich could you please set the table, " I ask

Haymich: " Why don't you have Peeta do that' he says

Katniss: " Because you never do it. " I reply

Peeta: " I don't mind doing it " he says casually

Katniss: " No stay with me, please. I just want to see your face," I say. We have been through a lot together and after all that time he was in the capitol being tortured I missed his face.

Peeta: " Katniss" he says as he kisses me

Haymich: " Get a room!" he yells

Peeta: pulls away " You know Haymich you could really use a girl friend. That way whenever I kiss my Katniss you will stop complaining!" he reply's

Katniss: " Haymich having a girl friend that would be hilarious seeing who he ends up with. " I say while laughing

Haymich: "Fine! I will set the stupid table!" he reply's angrily

We eat the food discussing what happened today and the Capitol. After dinner Haymich leaves drunk as can be. Peeta helps with the dishes and is about to leave. It hurts to think of being away from him.

Peeta: hugs Katniss " I love you so much Katniss. Sleep tight and remember if you have another bad dream and need me I am just across the street. " He says

Katniss: " Ok sleep tight. " I say watching him go to his house.

In the morning I get mail from District 2. It's from Gale
