Chapter 7- I'm a Prude

As soon as we get out of school that day, I run to Marrisa's house. I'm going to show her what happens when you get in MY personal crap and try to ruin my relationship. I've been livid all day. Peeta has noticed and has been trying to calm me down all day. I just ignored his attempts and focused on what I was going to say to Marrisa.

So here I am knocking on Marrissa's door. I wait a good 5 seconds before someone answers the door. A guy with grey eyes and black hair steps looks at me.

"Umm who the hell are you?" I ask.

"Gale,"

I sigh. "Whatever is Marrissa here?" I ask impatiently

"No, she's out of town,"

Of course she's out of town. She's such a coward.

"Are you the girl with a human boyfriend?" He questions me

"I barely know you and that none of your business," I growl

"I don't know what you would see in a human. A vampire like me is all you need," He flirts

"Ok first of all, you look like hell. Second I would never date you and third you look like hell. Plus you need to work on flirting, it doesn't suit you," I tell him before walking away.

Geez, guys these days.


"Where have you been Katniss?" Haymitch questions me

"Handling some business," I tell him dropping my things onto the kitchen floor.

"Well just to tell you, Peeta is worried about you,"

"Of course he is," I sigh

I walk up the stairs to my room and see Peeta leaning against my balcony, looking outside. I smile a little then I walk slowly to him and rest my head on his shoulder.

"Hi," I greet him.

My door closes quickly. I can say I'm used to the things the Peeta can do. I can't count how many times my freaking door closed by itself.

"Where have you been?" He asks, not turning around

"Handling things," I simply say

He turns around and kisses me for a second before pulling away. "Did you go talk to Marrisa?" He asks.

"I didn't have the chance to. She's out of town," I groan

"Don't talk to her. She'll just make you even more mad,"

"Yea but I have to say something. Its going to bother me for a while," I sigh moving away from him. He steps closer to me and wraps his arms around my waist.

"Don't worry about it Katniss. Just think happy thoughts for now," He whispers to me. This sends chills down me, so I kiss him with all the passion I have. He pushes me to the wall and I wrap my legs around him.

In the middle of our makeout frenzy, someone knocks on the door. I groan and kiss Peeta once more and he lets go of my legs, setting me on the ground. I open my door and see Clove.

"Yes Clove?" I ask

"I think I know what Peeta is," She smiles

"That quick?!"

"I have my ways and Rue helped me," Clove says holding a book and sitting on m bed.

"Alright listen up because I will only explain this once. Ask questions when I'm done. Ok so Peeta is related to a 10th century Protector. A Protector can naturally protect things, hence the name Protector. Anyway that Protector married a Centar, who has powers that can control objects, and those powers can react to an emotion the you feel. Along with those powers you are sent your real natural power when you are 18. So anyway when the Protector and the Centar married each other the created offspring's. Their children never got their parents powers but they knew that one day when a male was born into the family and he had an Arik sister that he would receive his ancestors powers. Now the thing is we won't know Peeta's true powers until his 18th birthday but we do know that he is part Protector and part Centar," Clove explains

"So all we do now is wait," I question

"I am afraid thats all we can do for now but Peeta's birthday is near. We have about 8 days until his birthday,"

"April 20th," I whisper

"So we have a week and a day," Clove says

"Thanks Clove," Peeta says

"Sure thing, bro-in-law," She smirks and walks out.


I knock on her door.

"Come in," I hear Prim say

I open her door and close it behind me. I never had the chance to talk to Prim about normal things. So I decided to talk to her when Peeta was asleep.

"Hi, Prim," I greet her sitting down on a chair.

"You know it gets lonely not having kids to talk to but I guess its better than dying," She says randomly

"I guess I know how you feel. I had no one to talk to when I was a human because I believed in a cause that no one else believed in," I sigh

"Yea, Have you ever thought about having children?" Prim asks

"Umm, its not likely-"

"Just answer the question,"

"I haven't really thought about it. I mean I like kids but I don't think I'm capable of taking care off one," I admit

"Nonsense," Prim sighs

"I really believe that,"

"Well soon you won't," She mumbles

I ignore what she says. "So you seem very wise for your age," I tell her

"Well of course I am, I remember everything I've seen or heard. Oh by the way I would just like to say keep it down in you and Peeta's room. You guys are either loud or I have really big ears," She smirks

I feel myself blush. "Umm thats something we can talk about later," I say awkwardly

"Oh Katniss don't be such a prude, you had sex with my big brother. Do you honestly think I care? I just can't stand ya'll being loud," She sighs

"I'm not really comfortable talking about this," I start to get up

"Come on Katniss! We're both girls!" She laughs

"Uh, see you later Prim," I say walking out of her room fast

I know my face is as red as a tomato right now. I really am such a prude.
