A/N: I cannot believe how awesome all you guys are! Your reviews make me so happy; I feel accomplished when I read them, and since I want to become an author, reading your reviews encourages me! One of the reviews even said that I just had to update because it was mandatory for survival! It made a big fat smile slide across my face. I love you guys! (Not in a stalker way, more of like a writer and her readers sort of way)

Disclaimer: Most of you probably aren't even reading this, or stopped after chapter 1. But if you are reading this, then let me enlighten you once again and remind you that I do not own anything about this story except the things you don't recognize.

Peeta's POV:

"Hi Gale," Katniss says as she reaches out and grabs my hand again as if it were her life line.

"Hi Katniss," Gale replies. He turns to me and just gives me a glare. I reply with a strained smile; I wasn't going to sink down to his level.

He turns back to Katniss. "So Katniss, how have you been?" he asks.

"Fine, well, perfect actually," she answers, giving my hand a squeeze. She smiles at me and I smile back. She turns back to Gale. "How about you?" she asks. Then, after clearing her throat she continues, "I- I heard you met my-my dad," she says. I can tell she wants to break down and start sobbing, so I give her hand a squeeze of reassurance.

"Yeah, I did," Gale replied.

"Well, we have to go," Katniss said. "We're on our way to visit Finnick and Annie."

"Alright well, I'll see you around Katniss," he told her. He gave me one last glare before walking off.

I let out a breath I feel like I'd been holding the whole conversation.

"You were totally silent the whole time Peeta," Katniss told me.

"Can you blame me?" I said chuckling. "By the way he was glaring at me you could tell he wanted t punch me."

Katniss just shrugged. He continued our walk to Finnick's room, where we suspected they would be.

Once we got there, I knocked on the door. After a bit of scuffling, the door opened to reveal FInnick, with a girl with red hair sitting on the bed behind him. There was bowl of cherries next to her.

"Katniss! Peeta! I haven't seen you guys in ages! Come in," he said, opening the door wider.

We stepped inside and Annie smiled at us. She didn't seem deranged at all.

"Katniss, Peeta, I'd like to introduce you to Annie," Finnick said.

"So this is the Annie Finnick is always talking about," Katniss said, smiling at Annie. Annie blushed a deep red. "Don't worry, he's only said good things," Katniss reassured her, giggling.

"Katniss Everdeen is giggling?" Finnick teased her. I chuckled.

"Watch it," Katniss replied, blushing.

"I'm just teasing," Finnick informed her.

"So, what have you guys been up to?" I asked, changing the subject.

"Not much, just settling. But there was something I forgot to mention," Finnick said, dramatically tapping his chin.

After a few suspenseful seconds, Annie burst out, "We're getting married!" she said with a huge grin on her face.

"Congratulations you guys!" Katniss said, taking her hand out of mine to hug each of them. I did as well.

"Yes, the wedding is next week," Finnick informed us, clearly ecstatic as well.

"Oh I can't wait!" Katniss said. Then someone's stomach rumbled. We turned to Annie who was blushing again.

"I think that means it's time for lunch," I said. We left the room and headed towards the cafeteria.

Katniss' POV:

As we walked towards the cafeteria, I couldn't stop thinking about Finnick and Annie's marriage. Or to be more exact, Peeta and I. When would Peeta propose? Obviously not anytime soon, with the situation about my Dad and all, but still. I couldn't help feeling a bit jealous. I shouldn't, because Finnick and Annie were older; almost 6 years older. I just felt like Peeta and I were meant to be. I had just realized it, but now that I had I was certain of it. Nothing could break us apart, not even my dad.

We reached the cafeteria, and sat at a table all together. Annie showed us her engagement ring. It was truly beautiful; it was a sliver band with diamond surrounded by tiny pearls. When she showed it to us, both she and Finnick's eyes seemed to light up. There was no doubt they loved each other.

We spent the rest of the meal talking about insignificant things. Towards the end, I saw Dad walk in. I turned to the group.

"We have to go," I said standing up, grabbing Peeta's arm in the process.

"Why?" he asked. Then he saw my dad. "Oh," he said standing up as well.

Annie and Finnick looked confused. "We'll tell you about it later," I said hurriedly.

Peeta and I grabbed our trays and hurried towards the exit. We threw away our trash and turned into the hallway which followed the exit. He were about to call the elevator when we heard the unmistakable voice of my father.

"Stop right there you two," he growled.

We spun around to see him running towards us at full speed.

Then, I heard a cry of pain. And it wasn't from me or Dad.

A/N: I'm so sorry, but I just had to end the chapter with this cliffhanger. I thought of it all of a sudden, and had to. If you're screaming you're head off at me right now like I would be, I don't blame you. Just please don't hate me. On the bright side, the next update will be tomorrow. And I promise it won't be a cliffhanger, since I probably won't be able to post anything Mon-Thurs. I think my schedule for updates will be one on Fridays, one on Saturdays, one on Sundays, and possibly on during the week on Tues. or Thurs. So those are the days to look for updates. Thx for reading and like always, REVIEW! :D
