The quiet was killing me, he lay on the sofa way across the room and I lay wide awake on a super comfortable bed.

I was so bored, too stressed to sleep and kept shuffling around "will you go to sleep already" I didn't answer him but stopped moving.

It was only silent for a minute before I heard him sit up "what's wrong Katniss?" What's wrong.. that was a good question

"Oh nothing, I've been kidnapped and my friends are running around the capital somewhere but nothing that you care about"

He snorted making me look at him "why are you such a bitch?" I was a bitch.. i always have been!! My teeth clenched before I turned around facing the wall letting out a huff

"Why not" he hummed in response and stood walking over "can I lay with you?" I didn't answer but he sat down anyway.

"What's really wrong? Why can't you sleep?" I shrugged a little turning myself around again "I have no idea, can I ask you something?"

He nodded narrowing his eyes and I struggled to pull the pearl out of my pocket to show him "do you remember this?" He quickly took it from me before I could stop him making my heart thump around wildly. I didn't like him holding it..

"Yes actually, I do" my eyes stayed on the pearl rolling around his fingers "what's wrong? Why are you looking so horrified?" I shook my head and held my hand out waiting for him to put it back. He didn't..

"Mm, I might just keep this.. throw it down the toilet maybe?" He stood from the bed and I instantly tried to jump up but the cuffs slammed me back down on the bed with a loud clank

He smirked and started walking away, he wouldn't "Peeta! Peeta please!! Please" he stopped and looked over his shoulder at me smirking, I couldn't keep my emotions hidden any longer as tears started steaming down my face.

He frowned turning himself back to face me "jeez Katniss.. I was kidding" relief washed over me but he was still touching it.

"Please give me it back" my voice cracked making me want to kick myself, I shouldn't be showing him how much one little thing could break me.

"Why do you want it so much?" My unease started growing again and I wiped more tears "please give it back" he rolled his eyes and walked over throwing it down on the bed.

The relief was incredible, I quickly snatched it back up and relaxed holding it close "why do you need it?" I shook my head again not meeting his gaze. I wasn't explaining to him why it meant so much, he should know.

He lay down next to me tilting his head to keep watching me "what's do special about a random stone I gave you?"

A random stone.. those words rung through my head before I met his eye "it's not just a random stone, you wouldn't understand" he chuckled as I pushed it back into my pocket.

His fingers tucked under my chin pulling my face up "I do understand, what I don't understand is why you rest so much of your emotions on it.. it's a big burden for such a small pearl"

That was my Peeta, a soft smile spread across my face making him raise an eyebrow "what are you smiling at?"

I quickly shook my head clearing my throat "no, nothing" real smooth Katniss! He chuckled and shuffled closer making my eyes snap back to him. When his hand rested on my hip pulling me closer I cursed at the pain in my wrist.

"I'm going to take them off, if you run away again then they'll be put back on" I nodded and he quickly leaned back unlocking the cuffs, I couldn't help but smile as held my wrist.

"Thank you" he bobbed his head quickly still watching me carefully, I didn't even want to run away! I wanted to jump on him but i knew it was a bad idea.

"Goodnight Peeta" I turned around shuffling closer to the wall pulling my knees up and he chuckle turning me back around.

When I looked at him he wriggled his eyebrows and I cursed before pulling him closer locking my lips with his, I knew this wasn't Peeta but I could pretend.

His kiss got heated fast, when I didn't pull away he rolled me over hovering above me. Without braking the kiss he used his knee to push my legs apart settling easily between my legs.

I mentally scolded myself before wrapping my leg's around his waist, his grunt made my stomach flip wildly.

I needed to breath and pulled away panting but he didn't stop and kissed sloppily down my neck holding the other side with his hand tightly.

When I felt his groin pressing against mine I groaned gripping his shoulders rocking my hips against him, he quickly leaned back to look down at me breathing heavy.

"Fuck, why the sudden eagerness?" I shrugged pulling him back down to me "why are you questioning it?" I could almost see the wheel's in his brain turning.

"Why now?" I groaned dropping my hands back onto the bed, talk about a mood killer! "Never mind Peeta" he smirked and pressed his groin harder against me before he ducked his head down starting to suck on my neck.

I moaned loudly running my fingers through his hair to keep him from talking again and ruining my very brief high, when he pulled back and laughed I frowned in confusion.

"Like a little stamp of Peeta" he laughed when he noticed I was still looking confused and tapped my neck with a devilish grin.

"That's called a love bite, it's a bruise that will fade so don't freak out" I nodded a little and he leaned closer to my face "what do you want Katniss?" Now that was a question I had no answer too, I didn't know what I wanted..

I wanted to go home, I wanted to see prim.. I wanted to jump his bones while I could!! "I think you know what you want but can't make yourself say it"

Before I could answer he pecked my lips gently "and I won't be doing what you want until you ask" fuck, I was never going to ask!! I shook my head and he grinned running his palm up my thigh before he got close to my ear.

"When you do ask? I'll blow your mind" I exhaled a shaky breath and pulled his face back to mine kissing him hungrily.

He grunted and pulled away pushing me back down on the bed "are you going to ask?" He was persistent I'd give him that much.

"No" he smirked and ran his finger down the middle of my chest stopping at the bottom of my stomach before he climbed off me and lay down beside me.

"I have to put the cuffs back on, turn around" I frowned and he rolled his eyes turning me around pulling me against his chest before he sat up putting the cuffs around my ankle and his.

He lay back down and draped an arm over my stomach "sleep Katniss"
