Katniss pov
It's been months since we went to the lake. Peeta has already stated remaking the bakery. Today is one of the few days he doesn't rebuild so we are spending it together at the meadow.
I lay with my head on his lap look up at his face. He is so beautiful. My hand grazes his face and he smiles at me.
"I love you katniss"he says to me with a passionate kiss. I smile and say"I love you too peeta"
He smiles"you really do?"He says sexy like. I wrap my arms around him and say"yes I really do"in my most seductive way,which makes him laugh. He stands up and I do too.
"Katniss, I love you with all my heart. I don't know what my future holds,but I know that I don't want to live in a world without you. I want to love you,protect you,be with you in every possible way. And that's why there's only one thing I need to know"he says and takes my hand in his. He pulls out a ring and says"will you marry me katniss?"
"Yes peeta. Of course I'll marry you"I say and kiss him."I love you"
He says"always"
We decide after to tell my mom and prim. When we get there,they are talking in the living room. Peeta holds my hand as we walk to them.
"Hey mom" I say. They turn and smile."Hi katniss,hi peeta. Tonight we're having a stew, would you like to stay"she asks.
"Sure. But we have something to tell you first" I say. Peeta smiles at me and reassures me.
"We're getting married"I say. They instantly hug and congratulate us. Prim hugs me and says"I'm so happy for you" then goes to peeta and hugs him saying"I've always wanted a brother"
We eat together after and my mom asks us when we plan to go to the justice building. I turn to peeta."When should we go? I guess we haven't talked about that yet"
"When ever you want to katniss"he says lovingly. I smile"we should go tomorrow. I mean I don't want to wait,waiting will only lead to one of us getting hurt"
He agrees with me. Soon we leave and head home. As soon as we are inside I kiss him and say"I'm happy that I'm marrying you" he kisses me fiercely and I straddle him. He brings us up to our room...
The next morning I wake up and kiss his forehead. He is still asleep. I don't blame him, especially after last night. So I decide to make him breakfast. I bring it up to him and wake him up.
"Peeta,peeta. Wake up"I sing as I shake him. When he wakes up he smiles at me and I hand him the food. We sit and eat together. Then he gets up to shower and get dressed.
"We should tell haymitch"he says and I nod,so we head over to haymitch's house. He is passed out of course. So I get a bucket of water and dump it on him.
"Wake up haymitch!"I yell as he jumps up pulling out his knife."ahhhrrggg,do you have to do that!"he yells.
"I wouldn't have to if you slept like a normal person"I say. He scoffs and says"well maybe I would get some sleep if you two weren't so loud. God close the window or something."
Peeta blushes and changes the subject."We have something to tell you"he says and haymitch laughs"boy,you didn't knock her up did you?"
"No haymitch!"I say. Peeta says" we're getting married" haymitch looks at us and says"wow star crossed lovers at last"
"Today"I add. He congratulates us and we head over to the justice building. We sign the papers and are announced husband and wife. But it won't feel real until we have our toasting.
When we leave we find my mother and prim waiting for us. Gale and Madge are there too. Even haymitch. They all congratulate us. So we all go to our house and eat a cake peeta made yesterday before we went to the meadow.
Everyone leaves and its just peeta and I. "Mrs Mellark,I believe we have one more thing to do"he says grabbing a piece of bread."of course."I say. So we toast the bread and feed it to each other.
"Katniss Mellark, I love you so much and I always will. It's been a dream of mine to marry you."
"Peeta, I love you too. You keep the nightmares at bay. You keep me whole and I can't live without you. I love you."I say. He kisses me. My arms wrap around him and he helps me out of my clothes,I do the same for him. With that we make love as husband and wife.
The next morning I wake up and he is stroking my hair."I love you"I tell him and he kisses me."I love you too" we lay there for a long time. I could live like this,with peeta forever.
