Hi guys thanks so much for all your great reviews they definitely give me a lot to think about while I'm writing! So I hope you all enjoy this chapter and please keep reviewing to give me advice and feedback on my story every little bit counts!

So I know a few of you were really wanting to hear Peeta's reaction to our latest development so I wont delay it any longer! Enjoy!

Peeta P.O.V
When I get home the house seems incredibly empty. This huge house with many bedrooms and bathrooms and lounge rooms and only one person lives inside it. Okay, yes, I do have parties but the thing is it isn't the same. And I do have Finnick Odair who is my best friend but like me he is so busy and barely spends anytime at his home.

Every night I get home and paint, don't get me wrong, I love painting but the thing is, it gets so lonely here. And the fans that wind up at my front door every now and then no longer count as company. I walk down the hallway and sling my jacket over the kitchen counter, if only I could actually cook, maybe I would have a reason to use my kitchen more than I do. I've considered having a maid but I've turned down that thought down multiple times. If only I had someone to share this huge house with.

I step out of the house and onto the balcony which overlooks the city, my house is hidden away on a side of a hill which gives me a beautiful view of district twelve below. In the distance I see tiny specks of what I know is the coal mines and I can just see the main square, along with the Seam. (authors note: even though this is a modern day AU I have decided to keep the idea of the districts and Capitol. Also in this story there is no extreme poverty)

My phone begins to ring inside my pocket, I jump in surprise before taking it out and answering it. "Hello?" I ask. I hear a sigh of relief, "oh Peeta, I thought that I would never get onto you! Do you know how many numbers I had to try to get the right one? Oh thank god." "Katniss?" I ask in question as I feel my heart beginning to beat faster. She laughs a little, "who else would greet you on the phone like this?" I smile, "what's wrong?" She breathes into the phone, "the media. They seem to think that, uh, you and me are a… thing…" she trails off. I laugh, "get used to it, speculation is everywhere in the media." "I know," she says. Silence follows. "So, uh, why did you call?" I ask. "I'm not sure actually, I'm sorry, I'm probably bothering you. Have you got a guest over or something? Yeah, I'm sorry," she mumbles. "Oh no," I laugh. "I'm not doing anything at the moment to be honest." "Oh good," she says. "Yeah, well, I just thought that I would let you know. Give you a heads up." "Thanks." I hear someone shouting in the background from her end but I can't quite make out who it is. "No, Prim, it's no body," Katniss says, obviously not talking to me. "I'm not lying! It's just somebody I work with, that's all. Prim, I will talk to you soon, just give me a moment." "Sorry about that," she says to me. "Oh, no it's fine," I say. "My sister, Prim, found out about me working for you and she is a huge fan so she is pretty excited." "Good to know one of the Everdeen girls is," I joke. "I told you not to take it personally!" she says. "I know I know.

Hey, do you want to ask Prim if she would like to come to the premier tomorrow night?" I ask. Katniss laughs, "oh I don't need to ask. I already know that she will say yes." "Well why don't you take her to Cinna tomorrow? I can ask him to get her ready too," I suggest. "You would do that?" she asks. "Yeah, sure." "It would mean the world to her, thank you so much." I smile into the phone, I love it when I make her happy. "See you tomorrow then?" "I guess so," she says. "See you later," I say. "Bye." And then she is gone. I put my phone back in my pocket and I'm suddenly thinking about how beautiful Katniss looked today. And then, with a perfect image of her inside my head, I decide to go and paint her.
