A/ N: I finally got a review! I'm partying in my head right now. Read on my friends this chapter is good. I still don't own the Hunger Games or the characters in it, Suzanne Collins does.
Katniss POV:
As soon as I walk in the house I see both my sister and mother. At our kitchen table treating someone for what looks like an infected hand. I start to remove my hunting coat and boots, then approach them at the table.
"Hey, Mom, Prim. Tonight we're going to have dinner at Peeta's around 6:30." I say looking up at them.
"Okay. Katniss, do you mind helping us make something to bring over?" My mother asks.
"Sure, I can help out. Do you want me to pick up anything from the market in town to prepare to make something?"
"Here, can you get some potatoes, butter, cheddar cheese, and chives?"
"Yeah. No problem." I say as put back on my coat.
As I walk into the town's market I'm surrounded by the smell of fresh food. The market is huge compared to the amount of people who actually live in town. I walk through the aisles searching for the items I was sent to get. I find all of the fairly quickly and head back to the front only to be met by him again. I get in line to check things out, with him behind me.
"We meet again." He says chuckling hardily.
"I guess we do." I say with a slight smirk on my face. Where did that come from? I shake this thought from my head and look up at him. Then I see something out of the corner of my eye. A bottle of vodka, I head to get it for Haymitch.
"Haymitch?" He asks looking up at me.
"Yeah. I don't know why, but I saw it, and knew to get it for him." I say.
Finally it's my turn to pay after about five minutes.
"Hi, Katniss. How are you today?" Mitt Sumpt, the grocer's son asks me, while checking out my items.
"I'm fine. How about you?"
"I'm doing fine, thanks for asking. That will be $6.50."
I hand him the cash in my pocket and start to grab my bag.
"Oh, would you like some help with that Katniss?"
"It's alright I can help her in a moment." Peeta jumps in while glaring at Mitt.
I wait for Peeta to pay still seeing him glare at Mitt. After a few minutes Peeta and I are ready to leave.
"Have a good day Katniss." Mitt calls out with a huge smirk on his face.
"What a creep." I say once we're outside.
"He was flirting with you." Peeta says with venom hinted in his voice.
"Are you jealous?" I ask jokingly.
"Yes." He says quietly.
"Well that explains a lot."
"Shouldn't he know not to mess with me by now, or flirt with you?"
"He should." I say while walking into Victor's Village.
"Hey, Katniss, I was wondering if maybe you would like to go out some time?"
I stand there frozen at my doorstep. For Pete's sake I just came out of the house today. What should I do? I have to think straight for a second. Do I like him? Heck yes I do! Thinking back to Gale's question from earlier today I apply it to Peeta. Yes, I want to spend the rest of my days with him.
"Yes." I say after a lot of thinking.
"Cool, well I will see you in a little bit." He says grinning like he had won the lottery.
I walk into my house to find myself being stared down by my sister and mom in the kitchen. They look a little upset but it doesn't look too serious. I know I'm definitely not in trouble but something is bothering them.
"Where were you?" Mom asks me.
"At the grocery store, but I got a little lost, it being my first time in there and all." I lie.
"Alright, can I have the groceries so I can make the mashed potatoes were bringing to Peeta's?"
"Oh, sure." I say handing the bag of groceries over. "Well I'm going to shower and get ready."
A/ N: Hey if anyone would like to submit a character to my story I will gladly use it, just PM me with all of the character's details. Such as name, age, looks, backstory, job, district, and etcetera.
