Peeta's POV
Chapter 7
I shake her shoulder a little trying to get her to wake up. "Katniss, Katniss." I say to her to try and coax her out of her nightmare faster. She jolts up shaking like a leaf, her eyes darting all around her room. Her eyes finally land on me and she comes flying at me and hugs me.
"Peeta." Katniss breathes out. I feel her warm tears trailing down her face. I whisper soothing words into her ear and her shudders that had at first gone through her entire body lessened. She whimpers every now and then. I begin to loosen my hold on her and she lets go as well. She looks down as she fiddles with her fingers in her lap. Katniss then looks up at me through her eye lashes and it is the most cutest thing I have ever seen in my life. I caress her cheek and she smiles, then turns her face and kisses the palm of my hand.
"Katniss, I'm so sorry." I tell her. She smiles at me again and kisses my cheek. I feel my blood rise to my cheeks quickly. Katniss giggles a little then hides her face. Someone knocks on my door and I move to open it. Katniss follows close behind me and I open the door to find my father looking at me.
"Peeta, Katniss dinners ready if you would like to eat with us. By the way Katniss you can stay here overnight if you would like to." My father tells us. Inside my head I am screaming at the world, I love you universe! Katniss grabs my arm from behind me and nods her head. My father just smiles at us and mutters under his breath probably thinking that I wouldn't hear him, he had muttered adorable. I don't really care though, I'm thinking the same thing about Katniss. I turn back around to look at Katniss again.
"I'm going to warn you like I always do but my brothers will probably be talking to you the entire time." I sigh. She nods and I move to hug her again. Her face lands right in the middle of my chest and for a minute I feel as if I'm in heaven. Our moment is once again, ruined.
"You know, if you want a mushy moment then I think that you should probably close and lock your door. Come one Peety, haven't Reuben and I taught you anything?" Rye tells me. I feel the blood rush back into my face once again and I look to see Katniss giggling at what Rye had just said. I glare at Rye and he backs off with his hands up in surrender. As soon as he leaves I quickly pick up Katniss and hold her bride style. We go down the stairs and into the kitchen where my parents are cooking us dinner. They see us come in and my mother smiles at me. I put Katniss down next to the counter and look down at her.
"Peeta, can you set up the table for us?" My mother asks me. I nod and hesitantly let go of Katniss and head to set up the table. Once the table is set I rush back to the kitchen to have Katniss back into my arms. My veins are filled with excitement and I push the door to the kitchen only to find the door stopped by something on the other side of it.
"Oww!" Someone shrieks behind the door and I immediately try to open it again, "Ughhh! Oww!" This person cries again.
"Can you please move so I can open the door?" I quickly ask not wanting to hit this person for the third time. I open the door slowly this time and find Katniss towards the side sitting on the kitchen island. Shes holding her face with both hands as my mother gives her a wet rag.
I rush to her, "Katniss, I'm so sorry" I tell her. "It's okay Peeta." She tries to tell me but I don't believe it.
"Move your hand so I can see your face." I try to tell her. She moves her hand and I wince. Katniss moves her hand back to her face covering the injury from me.
"Sorry, sorry let me see now." I say. She slowly moves her hands from her face and this time I try to keep myself from wincing. I lightly press her bruised cheek and Katniss slaps my hand away from her face.
"You would never make a good doctor just so you know." Katniss jokes. I grab the rag that she was using and run it under some cold water. Katniss takes it from me and lightly puts it on her face.
"I'm so sorry, I never meant to hit you with the door." I apologize to her.
"Why did you even open the door so hard anyway?" She asks me.
"I was kind of excited to see you again and I never knew I had super strength that could hurt pretty girls faces." I joke. Katniss giggles and hugs my midsection. I kiss the top of her head as her hug loosens around me.
"Come on Kat, lets go have some dinner." I say. We walk out and go towards the dinning area where everyone is sitting already dishing up their plates. I pull out Katniss's chair and push the chair in. I take the seat next to her and prepare myself for whats to come.
