I am surprised. I put my hands over my mouth. "I know, it's only been 2 months," he says. "But they have been the best two months of my life," A tear comes out my eyes. "I want to spend every hour, every minute, every second with you, for the rest of my life, I love you Katniss." He reaches in his pocket. He pulls out a ring. It's beautiful! It has a pearl. My pearl in the middle. He must of got it off my dresser at some point. "Oh Peeta." I whisper. Tears freely flow down my eyes. He slips the ring on my finger. "Will you, Katniss Everdeen, do me the honor, of being my wife?" I look in his eyes. I nod. Speechless. "Yes?" he ask. "Yes." I whisper. He picks me up and kisses me. I laugh. "I love you." he says. "I love you too Peeta." We sit back down to our picnic to arrange everything. I tell him I don't want to get married right away. "I don't care Katniss, the fact that we are is all I need." I smile and he kisses me. I cant wait to see the look on Haymitch's face.
I want to call my mother and my friends. But the phone is in the study. I havn't been in there in months. I'm scared to see a rose. I slowly open the door. Everything seems the same. I look around. No snake eyes. No smell of roses. I go to the phone and dial the number next to it in he phone book. The phone rings three times before she picks up. "Hello?" She says. "Mom," I say. "Katniss? Omigosh, how are you honey, I miss you!" she says. Yeah, you miss me so much you don't call or visit me. I'm so mad at her one little statent, I want to hang up. But, I hold my tongue. "I have some news for you," I say. "Oh, what is it?" she ask. "Peeta asked me to marry him." I say. She takes in a breath. "Oh, Katniss, I'm so happy for you, when's the wedding?" she ask. "I don't know." I say. "We will figure something out." I say. "Well, I'm glad you called." she says. I nod, but she can't see me so I make an agreeing sound. It goes silent. I make up an excuse. "I have to go help Haymitch and Peeta with lunch." I say. "Well, go ahead, I love you." She say. I hang up the phone. I still have an awkward relationship with my mother, I don't think it will get better anytime soon. Peeta comes in and kisses my cheek. Everything will be ok.
I call all the people I can. I get on the phone Peeta starts to move in. We pack his stuff in boxes and more it three doors down. To live by him self, he has a lot of stuff. "You got that box Katniss?" he ask me. "Yeah," I say. That was the last of the boxes. All of them are stacked in my living room. "Well, thats everything." Peeta says. We plop on the couch at the same time. I take a deep breath. "What are you thinking?" He ask. "I'm thinking you have a lot of unpacking to do." I laugh. He does too. "Other than that." he ask. I have to think for a moment. I really haven't had any deep thought in such a long time, about my new life and all. "I'm thinking, of how long it's been since I enjoyed a spring, or smiled." I say. He smiles and kisses me. I find myself wanting more, a hunger that I had on the beach. He deepens the kiss. We hear a cough. I jump. "I'm a interupting?" He ask. Haymitch. We both blush and he gives a blunt laugh. "This arrangement should be interesting." Haymitch says.e with Annie. "Hello?" she answers. "Annie? It's Katniss." I say. "Oh, so good to talk to you Katniss," she says. "You too, listen, me and Peeta are getting married." I tell her. "Oh I'm so happy for you! When's the big day?" she ask. "We don't know yet, but soon." I say. "Oh, I want to see you guys! I have to introduce you to Fin ." she says. "Fin?" I ask. "Yes, Fin, me and Finnicks son." My stomach gets butterflies. Her and Finnick had a son? My heart fills with sarrow for her. He will never know how great his father is. A few weeks later. We meet him. Peeta loves holding him. He smiles and plays with him. He looks at me, I don't look back. There is no way I am having a child. "Would you like to hold him Katniss?" Annie ask. Before I can say anything, Fin is in my hands. I Feed him his bottle and smile. His eyes are just like Finnick's.
