Hello everyone,

Thanks for your guys' response. There is some slight smut in this chapter so beware, since it's also my first time writing smut. I will like to know how I did on the smut so please review.

Peeta POV

I wake up to what has to be the most beautiful sight in the world. Katniss was snuggled against the ride side of my body with her arm wrapped around my waist and her head on my chest. Her light breathes against my bare chest had me fighting an erection that was threatening to show. I managed to fight off my rising arousal in order to watch Katniss as she slept. She looked so young and innocent when she slept since the slight wrinkles of what must be from stress and the light bags under her eyes that indicates she doesn't sleep that well disappear. Now what lies before me must be something sent by the gods since I find Katniss's beauty to be unearthly. Then my thoughts begin to wander to the night before.

I was caught by surprise when Katniss texted me to see if I was in my room. At first I was ecstatic that she wanted to see me, but I sensed that something must be wrong since it was getting late into the night. When she told that she and Gale had a fight a flurry of emotions overcame me, making me feel curious, angry, and a little happy, despite the turmoil that Katniss must be going through. I wasted no time letting Katniss in when she knocked on my door, but I had to restrain myself from gathering her into my arms because the look of distress that was on her face made me want to make it disappear.

I didn't have to wait long before she told me what was causing her so much distress. I wanted a hole to swallow me up into the ground for me to wallow in my self-pity, when she told me that Gale confessed that her loved her, but I steeled myself in order to help Katniss out with her problems. I asked hesitant questions to see if she returned her feelings, all the while crossing my fingers hoping she didn't. Once she told me that she could only love Gale as brother and nothing more, it almost made me jump for joy, but I stayed put to be the comforting friend. Then we spent the night passing a bottle of wine while sharing funny or embarrassing stories.

As I was remembering the night before, I didn't notice that I was threading my finger through her soft, dark hair. I immediately stopped my actions thinking I was overstepping her boundaries, but this caused her to stir against me and moan, "Don't stop." Once she said that, nothing could stop all the blood in my body to rush straight to my cock. Katniss had to pick this time to start to wake up, so I had to hide my arousal as quickly and as discreetly as I can. Soon Katniss was awake and rubbing the sleep out of her beautiful, grey eyes.

"Good morning," greeted Katniss with huskiness in her voice from waking up. "Morning," I replied trying my best to hide my arousal. "Are you hungry," I asked Katniss as she stretched out her limbs and letting out a big yawn. The way her breast bounced slightly from her movements had another wave of arousal go throughout my body, but I ignored it to catch Katniss's nod of affirmation.

"Well you could order room service, while I go and take a shower," I inquired. Katniss began to deny my offer, but I cut her off to say,"It's okay since I got more money than I need so order something good for the both of us. Heck I would be fine if you order a buffet." Katniss let out little laugh by this and nodded her yes, so I got up while discreetly shifting my straining erection to get some clothes to change into after the shower.

Once in the restroom, I knew I had to get rid of my hard on, but no images I could conjure up in my head or having the coldest shower ever will make it disappear so I decided I had to relief it myself. I strip myself from my sweatpants and boxer briefs causing me to feel a small amount relief from letting my erection out of its confines. I hurryingly turn on the shower to a warm setting and enter into the cascading water. I shampoo my hair first before I begin to wash my body.

I put a generous amount of body wash into my hands and begin to lather my body while avoiding my straining erection. Once done getting most of my body, I grasp my cock and begin to slowly pump myself. I imagine Katniss spread out before me naked with lustful eye. She's breathing heavily causing her perfect breasts to rise and fall while her dusky nipples pebble with anticipation. Then she moves her right index finger in a "come here" motion to which I eagerly comply.

I start to pump myself faster as we begin to make out with overwhelming passion. My tongue barely has to fight for dominance, which allows me taste her while making her moan. I begin to trail wet, open-mouthed kisses from her lips down her neck. I stop momentarily to suck on her pulse point making her let out a throaty moan, then I continue my journey until I reach the valley between her breasts. I take her right nipple into my mouth and begin to nibble and suck on it while putting my left hand on her other breast to knead it and tweak its nipple. I alternate between each breast making sure both of them receives attention from both my mouth and hands. This causes her to writher underneath me and put her hands onto my head to spur me on.

My climax begins to steadily approach me as I stroke myself faster while letting out small moans. I continue to worship Katniss's breasts until tugs my head away from them to make me look into her eyes. Her stormy grey eyes clash with my lustful blue one then she says the words that almost makes me come undone, "Fuck me Peeta." We quickly rearrange ourselves before I plunge into her glistening pussy. This causes her back to arch off the ground while letting out a loud, throaty moan. I grab her right leg and bring it up to rest it over my shoulder, and then I begin to pump into at a grueling pace earning me more moans and pleas to go faster and harder. I increase the speed and power every time I pump into her feeling her tight walls constrict my cock.

When I feel my climax approaching, I trail my fingers to where we are joined to put pressure on her clit. After a few more pumps her walls contract around my cock as she screams my name. With this my climax finally washes over me, spilling my seed against the shower wall while letting out a low groan saying Katniss. I quickly finish showering hoping that Katniss didn't hear me. I do feel a little ashamed for using Katniss as a release, but it's not the first time and certainly it won't be the last time I'll do it.

Once dressed into another pair of sweatpants and a plain white tee, I hesitantly leave the restroom to see Katniss gorging herself. I can't help but find it kind of hot, but luckily it doesn't show because of what I've just done. "How's the food," I asked grinning wickedly. This made Katniss jump little and turn to me with stuff, flushed cheeks. She gives me the okay sign with her fingers, so I join her gorging on the food she ordered. When we're stuffed with eggs, bacons, pancakes, and other stuff, we recline ourselves into the couch propping our feet on the coffee table. After few minutes of comfortable silence, Katniss says, "Well I better start packing my stuff before the hotel throws it out." Not wanting to lose any time with her I ask, "Can I help you?"

"Sure," she answered, so I follow her to her room. There are only a few articles of clothing strewn out the room that I gather while she packs her stuff. When I hand her a pair of panties and bra, we blush heavily, but we don't say a word. Once done packing, I grab a few of her bags while she grabs only one, despite her protests. The elevator ride felt relatively short and all too soon we were in front of the hotel waiting for the valet to bring Katniss's truck. "Well it's been nice meeting you so you better call or text me whenever you're not busy," she said with what I think is sadness. I immediately hug her and say, "It was and I'll always make sure to send you something." We hold each other in this embrace until one of the valets clears his throat to get our attention.

"Well mam, it seems that your truck is experiencing some mechanical difficulties so we called a tow truck to take it to a nearby mechanic. I'll give you the mechanic's information, but it seems that your truck won't be fixed until tomorrow," explained the valet. Katniss lets out a groan of frustration, then takes the information from the valet and say thank you. "Damn I needed to go home today to finish the article, but now I need to find a place to crash for tonight," said Katniss once. "You know you could stay with me," I stated obviously. "You're okay with that," asked Katniss. "Of course, especially since Friday is my break day," I said assuringly.

Katniss gives me a small thank you, and then we head back to my room with her bags in tow. "So what do you want to do today," I asked as we put her bags down in the living area. "I don't know," she replied shrugging. "How about we go that mechanic who has your truck then we go to the Philadelphia Museum of Art," I suggested. "That sounds great just let me take shower and change first," agreed Katniss. I change into a pair of black jeans paired with a dark green V-neck, while I wait for Katniss. Katniss comes out of the bathroom wearing some form fitting jeans with a light blue cardigan over a white tank top. "You ready to go my lady," I asked holding out my arm. "Well indeed I am kind sir," she replied connecting our arms together. Then we head to my car to drive to the mechanic first.

The mechanic was a pretty nice guy giving Katniss a fair price to repair her truck by tomorrow. I tried paying it for her, but she wouldn't have it. Then we went the Philadelphia Museum to walk around the exhibits. I got the chance to admire the paintings on display while impressing and surprising Katniss with my knowledge with art. After visiting mostly every exhibit, we get Philly cheesesteaks for lunch. As we're eating I get a call from Finnick.

"What's up Finnick," I greeted with a mouthful of my cheesesteak. Katniss gives me a curious look to so I mouth "my manager" to her which she nods her head in understanding. "I was seeing if you want to go out tonight," asked Finnick. I move the phone away from me to ask Katniss, "Will you like to go out tonight with some friends of mine?" Katniss thinks for a while then replies, "Sure, but I'll need something to wear."

"I can always buy you something," I stated matter-of-factly. "And I won't take no for an answer," I quickly added, Katniss just shrugs in defeat. "Yeah sounds great. Is it okay I bring a friend," I said. "Of course you can. We're going to this new club called the Capitol so see you and your friend there," said Finnick. "Okay see ya Finnick," I said.

"Well we better get you an outfit," I stated once I got off the phone with Finnick. Katniss gives me an exasperated look, but I ignore it to grab her hand to lead her to my car. We travel to a few shops before Katniss picks out a short black dress with some modest high heels for her outfit tonight. Then we head back to the hotel to change. I only change my shirt to a white button down, while I wait for Katniss.

Again Katniss knocks me out with her beauty when she finished changing into the new dress and heels. I just want to forget about the club and spend the rest night with her, but I don't want to ditch my friends. I have a feeling tonight is definitely going to be a good night.
