The days went like a blur I couldn't help but think about my family about Haymitch, Mom, even Gale. My heart hurt when I thought of them, I still loved them all. But I still made this my future with killing President Coin and all. The dreams still haunt me making me remember the past, I wonder if they will ever go away? I am happy with my new life with Peeta I am in love with him and I would not be myself without him. I decided that I would take a hunting trip to collect my thoughts plan my next move in this life. I make my way down stairs with my bow and game bag in hand.

"Peeta, Peeta!" I yell across the big house he could be anywhere by now he always wakes up early. I make my way to the refrigerator I pick up the stack of sticky notes and write. Going hunting for a bit, I'll be back of supper I promise, Love K. I put the note on the counter and hope that he will see it. I walk to the fence catching myself check of the hum of electricity but I know I won't find it. I crawl into the woods intensely I feel at home, the smell of pine and the mockingjays greet me with a song. I focus on trying to find a source of game. I still cannot bring myself to go to the meadow to many memories of Gale and my dad. I stalk my prey I shot a rabbit and a squirrel square in the eyes. I set them in the bag and begin searching for some plants I could dig up. I found a few Katniss plants and berries which always remind me of Peeta. When I think of him I can't help but smile, I may sound like a lovesick teenager but this is the first time I have felt normal. "He makes me feel alive." I say to myself. I come back down to earth when I hear a shuffle in the leaves. I look to my right where the sound came from. I think about running because my mind goes directly to the games or the war but I remember I am safe here I am home at 12. I see a beautiful deer looking for grass to eat, quietly I grad my bow my mission at hand is to bring this big buy home. It didn't take much just 2 arrows although it did take quite a walk to find him laying there frozen. I didn't think about how I was going to get him back home. It was getting dark but I can't just leave him here even if I know I won't starve without him. So I grab him be the antlers and drag him all the way home. I laid him outside in the grass seeking for Peeta's help he may not be a hunter but he can clean the animals very well. I walk into the house and come to a halt when I find Peeta pacing the floor something happened something bad. He didn't even look up to me.

"Peeta, what happened?" My heart dropped waiting for his response I had no idea what could have happened could it have been Gale or even my Mother? Oh no what about Haymitch did his drinking finally catch up with him. But Peeta just stood there looking at me like I was some sort of ghost.

"Katniss, do you know what time it is? You said you would be back by supper! I didn't know what happened to you do you know how worried I was?" His anger started to surface I should have known to just leave the deer there and come back home to Peeta.

"Peeta, I am okay see I am here, nothing bad happened I just shot a deer and I couldn't bring myself to leave it there and I couldn't drag it all the way up here by supper. Peeta I am so sorry I really am, I can't imagine how scary it was for you, I am sorry." My words came out so fast I wondered if he understood them.

"Katniss you can't just keep doing this, this is the second time you have done this to me." His voice was a little bit nicer but now my anger was surfacing.

"Do you honestly think that I am going to get hurt out there? I have won two Hunger Games and survived a War between the rebels and the Capitol. I think that I will do just fine it is not like your some sort of body guard." My words flew out of my mouth like daggers I did regret what I said but I can't take it back now so I just stand there and stare at him.

"I made a promise long ago that I would do anything to make sure you stayed alive, and I intend to keep that promise Katniss Everdeen." Shocked by his words I stood there and watched him walk out the door no intentions to follow after him.

My body shook with anger, sadness, even grief. I don't know how I could have said those things to him all he has ever done was try to protect me and make sure I stay alive. I might even be dead now if it were not for him. As the time ticked by I decided that he would come back when he wanted to and we would make up like we always do. I started up the stairs to the bathroom I stripped my tee-shirt and jeans off and let the waterfall of hot water cascade on me. When I got out still no sign of Peeta and I spent a good hour in the shower I decided to just give up and go to bed he will wake me when he comes home. I was half asleep and half awake when I heard him come in. But he didn't wake me he just took a shower and went back downstairs. I fought myself to follow after him this time but I knew he needed time to cool off. Everything would be better in the morning I just know it would.
