Delly POV

After the visit to Katniss and Peeta's, I decided to go see Dile. Once I was out of the Victor's Village, I mustered up all of my courage, and ran to his house in the Seam.

After a moment of standing on his doorstep, I knocked on the door. It was a few seconds before one of Dile's little sisters, Tailia, opened the door. She looked about five or six, and had really big grey eyes, exactly like her brother's. She smiled when she saw me, and I smiled back.

"Yow Delwy, wite?" she asks me.

"Yes! It's so nice to meet you! Is you're brother home?" I ask her politley

"Mhm" she says, walking away from the door, into the house. I follow her as we make our way down a short hallway, passing a small kitchen and living room. We get to the dining room, and my stomach does a flip inside me, beause there he is. Dile.

He's sitting at the table, reading something. I hear his mother in the kitchen we had passed, and his father wasn't home.

"Diwe!" Tailia calls, running into the room. Dile looks up from what he was reading, and smiles when he sees me. He scoops up his little sister, while she giggles uncontrolibly is his arms.

"Hey Delly" he says warmly, still smiling at me.

I smile brightly back at him.

"I was just about to go for a walk with Tailia. Wanna come?" He asks me.

"I'd love too!" I say cheerfully, and the next thing I know, Dile, Tailia, and I are walking around the houses to the edge of the district. We talked about school, life, and Tailia.

"Oh, you had a younger brother, didn't you?" he aks softly.

"Yeah, but he..." I trail off, thinnking of my brother, how he didn't manage to escape the flames, along with my parents. tears fil my eyes, and before I know whats happeing, Dile wraps me up in a hug. I'm suprised at first, but before I have time to react, he pulls away.

"I'm sorry" he says sheepishly, "I thought you needed that, with your family and all..."

"Oh! thank you" I reply, just as shyly.

"I know how it is. losing a family member. my dad...he didn't make it either" he tells me quietly.

His face hardens. "It's all becuse of that stupid Katniss." he growls.

Uh-Oh. not good.

Katniss's POV

I rub my eyes. I'v been awake for a while now, but I'v made no attempt at getting up. I guess I should, It's getting boring whithout Peeta here; he left to go downstairs a while ago.

I do get up, eventually. I yawn and stretch before heading downstairs. Peeta is in the living room, a sketchpad in his hand.

"Morning" I say, plopping down next to him, resting my legs in his lap.

"Morning? It's one in the afternoon" he says, smiling.

"So? to me, its morning" I say, resting my hands behind my head.

"Glad you're feeling better" he smirks, stroking my ankle.

"Mhm" I say, leaning over to him.

I give him a long kiss. "Yep, so I can do that again" I say when I'm done.

Peeta laughs and pulls his arms around me. "Yup"

We sit in silence after that, I watch Peeta intently as he resumes his skething. It's a picture of a person balancing while walking across a long row of rocks across a narrow stream. When he's finished, he holds it out for me to inspect. I stare at the figure crossing the stram, then realize it's Prim. my eyes fill with tears, and then Peeta's hugging me and whispering soothing things in my ear. When I finally stop crying, there's a knock at the door. I stand up from Peeta, then go and get it. When I open it, I'm suprised to see Delly, standing with a worried expression. I invite her in, and she tells me about Dile.

Uh-Oh
