Falling for the Huntress:

Peeta's POV:

I was a goner. Ever since that day when we were little, I was deeply, madly in love with Katniss Everdeen. And now she was finally mine..

"Peeta?" she whispered as we sat in the meadow, just hanging out. It was a few months after the rebellion ended so we were both still fragile.

"Yes?" I answered softly, holding her in my arms.

"I... I love you." she said, almost inaudibly, stroking my cheek.

I blushed instantly. "Katniss.. have you been drinking with Haymitch again?" I asked, not believing her.

She groaned in fake aggravation. "Peeta. I told you before that I was never going to drink the happy juice again." she looked into my eyes and said those three words again.

"I love you, Peeta." I smiled, then we both slowly slipped into the clutches of sleep.

"Katniss?" I said a few hours later.

"Yes?" she answered sleepily.

"You love me. Real or not real?" I whispered, looking into her eyes.

"Real." she said looking back. I smiled as my heart pounded. I had fallen for the huntress... and eventually caught her.
