I Fell For You

Katniss and Peeta fan fiction – Snapshots over the years

Peeta's POV

Katniss Everdeen - The girl who stole my heart exactly four years ago. January 6th is the date our school reopens and I saw her for the very first time last year. But what does love mean to a nine year old. I want to just spend time with Katniss, probably call her over how I call my other friends and make beautiful drawings with her. She isn't the best in art class but I can teach her. I am also willing to share my favorite crayons with her and I NEVER share it with anyone.

Lost in her thoughts I have missed half my class and I snap out of my daze when the teacher calls out me name "Peeta! You shall be paired up with hmmmm… Katniss". What! Yes this is it first time I would have an actual conversation with Katniss.

She walks over to me desk and asks, "So do you have any ideas?"

Uh-oh I wasn't even listening to the instructions. I think Katniss sitting in front of me is becoming a problem because this isn't the first time this is happening. "umm….no" I reply shyly. Why can't I even speak properly now?

"well we are supposed to talk about one place that fascinates us sooo…. How about the Meadow?" she asks excited. I silently thank her for telling me the topic and I of course agree with her.

I have been to the Meadow only once or twice so I have a very vague idea about how it looks or feels but I think Katniss goes there very often with her farther.

"okay. So have u ever been there?" she asks.

"only once or twice."

"really I go there all the time. Do u want to come with me I can show you"

"umm..what…y..you…want..nt…me to come wi…with…you..ou?" I reply stammering each word out embarrassing meself.

"yeah it would be good if you saw the place yourself. You would be able to imagine it and speak more easily about it."

"okay..ay" why do I keep stammering?, "how about you come to the bakery with me now. I can treat you for taking me out?" I ask her even though I know the consequences are facing the wrath of my mom after she leaves but its okay – for Katniss everything is okay.
