The Boy with the Bread
Chapter two: You Again (Katniss' POV)
I'm peeking out my back window, trying to understand what Haymitch is doing. I hear the sound of a train whistle and now that our supplies have come early. Until I see it's a different train, a passenger train and I head out side. The station isn't far at all so I walk over to see Dr. Aurelius, a nurse with a name tag that reads Zildia, and… Peeta! "Oh, Katniss dear, we are just dropping off Peeta here. Have you been taking your medication?" I am too stunned to talk, to happy that he's her, too… overwhelmed. All I can do is nod answering his only question, when Peeta walks my direction.
"Katniss, I'm sorry I tried to kill you, I'm sorry I can't remember what we had, but if I could I would, for you." He says. And I jump into his open arms. I knew he was getting better. I knew he still care about me. "I missed you too." He mutters in relief. As we walk back to my house he asks me "Katniss? You love me. Real or not real?" I was stunned. Couldn't breathe then….
Before I could stop myself I blurted out, "Real, Peeta, Defiantly, real." And he smiled. He's a different Peeta when he smiles. He's himself again.
That's when he begins to shake and his head goes between his knees and he's making a terrible noise like he's trying to stop from screaming mixed with hyperventilating. And he falls to the floor like he's having a seizer. And he huddles in a ball. I don't know what to do I drop to my knees beside him and put my hand on his shoulder. He flip me underneath him and I stare into his eyes there distant then he's searching my face and I begin to cry and he asks, "You tried to kill me in the Quarter Quell. Real or not real?" there's no emotion in his voice.
"Not real, Peeta, not real." I force out. Then soon comes, "Peeta come back to me, I now your there! Peeta!" and I kiss him, on the lips. He collapses on top of me and I lay there a cry, his head resting on my chest until he comes to. I have never seen anything happen like this ever before.
