Chapter 4- An Engagement
KPOV
I was standing hand-in-hand with Peeta waiting for the train to come. My mother was coming to District 12 from District 4. Peeta & I came back from the Capitol yesterday after a multiple interviews. I must have shown how nervous I was because Peeta squeezed my hand.
"Are you okay,Kat?" He asked.
"Yeah, just nervous" I answered.
"It'll be fine. Its just five days,how bad can it be?" He answered.
Oh,Peeta. How wrong you are.
When we got back home with my mother in Victor's Village, I was about to go insane.
"The pillows can go so nicely on this side of the couch,Peeta", "That painting can look great upstairs,Katniss", "That bookshelf can look so great on that side of the room" and things like that.
"MOM! I'm glad you're here, but please. This is my house, Peeta and I can decide where things go." I snapped. I immediately felt bad.
"Peeta and I?" My mother asked, she looked amused and happy.
"Um, Uh... MOM! Don't change the subject!" I said.
"Okay! I'm sorry,Katniss. Its just after Prim died, I'm trying to occupy myself with anything so I don't have to think about her." She said and looked sad.
"I'll make you tea,." Peeta offered.
"Thank you Peeta." My mother called after him.
Once Peeta was out of earshot my mother asked,"So, when is the big day?"My mother asked.
"Mother!" I snapped.
Once Peeta came back with the tea, we all sat at the kitchen table.
", may I ask you something?" Peeta asked my mother.
"Of course" She answered. She looked at me and I knew it was personal so I walked out and to the bakery.
When I came back, I pressed my ear to the door.
"Do you love her?" I heard my mother ask.
"I do, so much that it hurts." I heard Peeta answer. Me, they are talking about me. I knocked on the door and my mother opened the door.
"Hello Katniss. I have to go to Haymitch's house. I'll be back" She said. I walked in and sat down on the kitchen chair. Peeta looked scared and nervous. Then he sank down on one knee.
"Katniss Everdeen, I've loved you since I heard you sing when we were four. Will you marry me?" He proposed. He freakin proposed!
"Oh my god...Yes Peeta! I will marry you!" I answered,the ring was a silver band with a small diamond in the middle. Under the band said "I love you". We both stood up and I kissed him. Oh my god. I'm going to marry Peeta Mellark, the baker's son. And I am going to love every minute of it.
So did you like it? Review!
