I'm back. I wrote more today so I decided to post it. I might post after Wednesday (because that's my b-day and I might be busy). Enjoy! :)
DISCLAIMER: I would like to own the Hunger Games for my birthday, but that's impossible :(
Katniss's POV
I couldn't believe I was kissing Peeta Mellark. Finally. It felt amazing. I didn't want to pull away but then I head Glimmer gasp.
"Peeta! I thought we were dating?" Glimmer screamed walking over to us. Peeta looked at her with mock surprise.
"Glimmer, I thought we were meeting tomorrow," he said.
"No, we agreed today. I can't believe you. So this is how it feels to be cheated on. And with someone as lame as Katniss," she said.
"Katniss is not lame," Peeta said standing up. "She is a better person than you will ever be."
"Peeta, baby. Calm down. No need to defend her, I'm here now."
"No, this," he said, "whatever you thought was between us, is fake. I could never like you." Glimmer grunted and walked out.
"Thanks," I said, "for defending me."
"Anything for you," he replied. I blushed. "Can we talk?"
"Yeah, sure," I said. He sat back down.
"I know Jack really hurt you and I'm not pushing you, but is Annie telling the truth when she says you like me?"
I nodded. "Is she correct when she says you like me?" I asked.
"Yes," he said. "I don't want you to commit to anything before you're ready. But I promise I will never do what Jack did."
"I know. Thank you. I promise I will let you know when I'm ready to commit, but thank you for staying with me after what I'm putting you through."
"Always," he replied.
Peeta's POV
We were walking through the mall to the food court. Gale and Madge were holding hands and talking. Finnick had his arm around Annie while they talked. Clove and Johanna were talking about their history project. Cato and Marvel were talking about their project. Katniss and I were walking next to each other being quiet. What do you say to a girl you just admitted you liked right to her face?
"We have to figure out what to do for our history project," Katniss said breaking the silence between us.
"Okay," I replied. We talked about that, throwing around a few ideas. We laughed a few times. Like when I said maybe we should do a copy of the uniforms to show Glimmer there was no glitter on them.
Finnick's POV
I was talking to Annie about a movie we saw last night. I looked over at Peeta and noticed he was talking to Katniss. I saw them burst into laughter.
"We did good work," Annie said.
"What do you mean?" I asked looking at her.
"Peeta and Katniss. They are meant for each other," she replied.
"Yeah, you're right. I heard them talking before," I said, "about dating when Katniss feels better about what happened with Jack."
"Yes!" Annie screamed. Everyone looked over to us. "Sorry," she said blushing. Everyone started laughing.
Katniss's POV
We were sitting down at the table eating when my phone started to ring. "Hello?" I answered.
"Katniss," my mother said worriedly through the phone, "Prim got hit by a car. Please hurry to the hospital." She hung up. I couldn't move. Prim.
"Katniss," Peeta said, "are you okay?"
"Prim got hit by a car," I choked out. Peeta wrapped his arms around me and I cuddled into his chest as I started to cry.
"Do you want me to drive you to the hospital?" Peeta asked. I nodded. He got up and helped me up. He kept his arm around me as we walked to his car. I got in and then he drove to the hospital. We walked into Prim's room and she was hooked up to a bunch of machines. My mother was sitting in one of the chairs with tears in her eyes.
"Katniss, you're here. I'm going to go talk to the doctor," my mother said before she walked out of the room.
"Katniss, I'm going to go," Peeta said.
"Stay with me," I said grabbing his hand.
"Always."
I might do more from their friends' POVs to get there view on the Katniss/Peeta relationship. I'm sorry it was kind of short but I wanted to end it like that. I love Prim, but the story was losing the drama now that Katniss and Peeta are so close. Please review! I love reading your reviews.
