We are almost at the end of the story :( Here we have some cute moments between Katniss and Peeta. And Peeta is starting to feel something for Katniss but he still doesn't know what is it. We'll find next chapter :)

I don't own THG characters nor Tangled world. Enjoy!

I'm standing here, resting against a brick wall and Katniss is a few feet away from me, seated on the ground while the four little girls braid her hair.

I don't know why I called her Blondie again. I guess if I called her Katniss it would mean something different but... Ugh! This is so frustating. This girl is making me go crazy over her. She is just a girl. A girl with a beautiful voice. I don't even care for her hair. She is beautiful and when she smiles it makes me happy knowing that maybe that was caused by me. What's wrong with me? I'm really going crazy for this girl.

I look around and see some guards approaching us. Crap! I duck my upper body and hide behind the wall. I wait a few minutes before taking a peek. They're gone. I sigh. I look at Katniss and see that her braid hair is finished. The little girls also placed some wild flowers to hold strands of her hair. She looks absolutly gorgeous. Oh man... I hear Gale neigh. I look at him and he moves his eyebrows knowingly.

"Seriously?!" I glare at him but I can't help the smile that's coming.

"Thank you very much." Katniss smiles at the little girls.

They giggle and run away to go play. Katniss walks to me.

"Hi." She smiles.

"I-I..." I stutter. "You look... really pretty."

"Thanks." She blushs a little.

I clear my throat and straighten my back. "Ok lets go."

We start walking. Katniss is always gasping when we pass something that fascinates her. Even the little gardens by the sidewalk, she stares at.

"Isn't this incredible?" She muses.

"It's just a flower." I say flatly.

She scowls at me. I sigh.

"Fine." I force a smile. "They are lovely."

She looks at me and then smirks. "Here." She puts the flower on my hair.

"How do I look?" I joke.

She stares at me and starts laughing. "Very manly." She says after cleaning her watery eyes from laughing.

"Funny." I remove the flower from my hair and put it behind her ear. She tenses under my touch and looks intensly at me. I let my hand rest on her cheek while I stare at her too. Her eyes are so impossibly gray, it is almost transparent. Gale neighs, breaking the moment. I take my hand off of her cheek quickly. She gives me a small smile and then turns around. She starts walking down the street, in direction to the town's square.

I sigh. Nice move, Peeta. Nice move.

I resume walking with Gale and Prim by my side. I see a bread stand by the square entrance. I'm getting a bit hungry and I haven't eaten since yesterday.

"Go ahead and join her." I tell Gale.

I move to the line forming at the bread stand. I need to get my mind straight about all these weird emotions and feelings. I look around the square and see Katniss seated on a stone bench with Gale by her side and Prim in her lap. She has a serene expression on but it seems almost as she is sad. Today is her birthday, right? I know what I'll do. Besides taking her to see the laterns. I buy four rolls and a cupcake the baker had aside. I walk to Katniss. She looks up and gives a little smile.

"I got you something." I say.

"What?" She raises one eyebrow.

I sit next to her on the bench. I put the bag with the rolls between us and hand her the other one with the cupcake. She looks suspiciously at it.

"Open it." I smile courageously.

She opens it and I see her smile bigger.

"Happy Birthday!" I say excitedly. She looks up.

"Thank you. You needn't buy this." She says.

"Of course I need it. It is your birthday." I shrug. "Come on! Eat it."

She takes a bite and her eyes widen. I laugh at her. She swallows. "It is so good."

I reach inside the bag, grab a roll and take a bite. Katniss removes a small bit of the cupcake and hands it to Prim.

"Can lizards eat cake?" I joke.

"She is a chameleon." She huffs. "And yes, they can."

"I was just joking." I smile. She nods.

"So are you excited for tonight?" I ask her.

She lights up suddenly. "Yes. It is all I wanted to do."

"What about me?" I ask realising after what I said.

"What?" She looks at me.

"Uh..." I mumble.

Suddenly there's a loud sound.

"What was that?" Katniss asks startled.

I grab the bag with the rolls and get up.

"Time to go." I smile.

She gets up quickly, almost sending Prim to the ground but she holds on.

"Sorry Prim." She grabs her and positions Prim on her shoulder.

"Someone is eager." I smirk.

"Shut up and lets go." She starts walking fast. I shake my head. This girl is so strange.

We reach the small town's port and I look for a boat. I see a small one with a oar.

"There's one." I grab her hand and lead her to it. I get inside the boat carefully and then hold out my hands for Katniss to take. She grabs it and steps inside. She almost falls but I hold fast onto her waist. We are standing very close and I only see her eyes, looking at mine.

"Thanks." She lets go of me and then moves to the other side of the boat to sit on the wood bench.

I still feel her body under my hands. It was warm and soft. I shake my head from these thoughts. I turn around and sit on the other wood bench. I grab the oar and start rowing, leaving the port behind us. I turn my head and see Gale looking at us sadly.

"Sorry Gale." I apologise. "No horses allowed." I joke.

Now be super cute and tell me what you thought :D Also I'm going to take a different turn at the end of this story. It is almost as I did in my other story. You'll find about sooner :)
