Disclaiming: I have no idea why you people would think I own The Hunger Games(:
"How long have I been asleep?" she asks. "Two days." I say. I know she won't like that but I can't lie to her. "What? Two days why didn't you wake me?" she says. "You needed the rest." I reply. "Besides, half the time you were unconscious and I couldn't wake you." I add. Slightly untrue. She could have been woken but I chose to let her sleep. "Oh." Is all she says.
I look up and I see a bird…what is it called? I forget. Maybe…right! It's a mockingjay! I smile remembering them from home. I whistle my four note tune I made at home, it always signaled the work day was over. "That's pretty" Katniss says with a smile. "Thank you." I say back. I do it again. Once again the mockingjays pick up and slowly bounce it back and forth between each other until the whole arena is filled with their beautiful noise. I look at Katniss and smile, she returns a smile. I feel so safe when I'm with her. Rather than being alone.
"We should probably get some food." She suggests. "Mmhm." I agree. While we're out, Katniss manages to shoot some birds and something else I do not know the name of. I found some berries that I used to eat back home, and an egg. We would have liked to cook our food, but that wouldn't be good. The careers would find us in a minute. So we just ate the meat uncooked.
"That was great!" I say. I can't help but smile. She smiles back, but I can tell some things are worrying her. "So is it true, are you and Peeta really…?" I ask in a way that is so weird, holding up two fingers next to each other, and raising my eyebrows up and down so she can't help but laugh. "Yes, it's true." She says still smiling and holding back laughter. I just smile but I do let out a light, airy laugh. "We should get some sleep." I suggest. "Right." She agrees. The night is freezing so I'm glad we share a sleeping bag. I snuggle closer to Katniss. Morning comes closer than I wanted.
A/n: Sorry to my followers, my dad got cancer (I trust you guys) and I haven't had time to write(: So here's this chapter! I'm afraid this is getting close to the end. ):
