IT BELONGS TO SUZANNE COLLINS
Chapter 11
Katniss P.O.V.
I walk out of Peeta and I's room surprised to find Haymitch waiting for me outside. I'm surprised that he doesn't have have any alcohol in his hand this early in the morning.
"Hey Sweetheart, how are you feeling?" He asks me and he sounds like he is truly concerned about me.
"better" I say looking down suddenly feeling embarrassed, he suddenly pulls me into a bone crushing hug. "I care Sweetheart, you remember that"
I nod into his shoulder "Thank you for caring" Haymitch nods and I pull away walking to the food cart all I grab is a glass of orange juice and sit down on one of the couch chairs. When Peeta comes in he lays down putting his head in my lap. "They said that we will be back in 12 today, just in time to see what fun things they have planned for the quell" I flick his cheek "Don't be so sarcastic" I scold him while he is rubbing his cheek. "That wasn't nice" He says in a four year old type tone. I lean down and give him a chaste kiss on the lips and he sits up and turns so that he is facing me and deepens the kiss, licking the bottom of my lip asking for an entrance and I open my mouth for him and our tongues fight for dominance, which he wins.
I let out a moan against his lips and he starts kissing down my neck and I wind my fingers into his hair. He picks me up and I wrap my legs around his waist. He carries me to our room, he sets me down on the bed still kissing me. I know we won't be able to stop.
"We will be entering District 12 in five minuets, please be ready" The robotic voice speaks over the intercom. I groan and roll over in the bed "Come on Katniss, you gotta get up" I pull myself off of the bed and collect all of my clothes and put them into my bag. The train lurches to a stop and I grab my bag and Peeta's hand and make my way to the door.
"Alright time to plaster the biggest fake smile that we can" I tell Peeta and he chuckles, shaking his head. He smiles and right as he does the door opens so, I put on a smile too. We walk out waving at all of the people gathered near the train.
I spot Prim and my smile turns real. Prim has her normal 'Prim' smile, her smile makes everyone want to smile, she would do much better up here than I do. Not that I regret volunteering just that everyone loves her I don't blame them.
My mom rushes over to me once we get out of the crowd. "Oh god Katniss, are you okay? I saw the broadcast you were hurt." I nod and she pulls me into a bone crushing hug. "I'm so sorry I haven't been there but I'm going to try so hard" I never thought the day would come when I would get my mom back I thought that once I died in the games then Prim would have to scavenge for food. I'm glad that didn't have to happen.
I walk right into my house and plop onto the couch. Peeta walks in a few minuets later and I lay my head in his lap "The broadcast is going to start" Prim says sitting down on the couch next to Peeta with mom. The television turns on almost on cue Snow goes through his talking and pulls out the card "This year for the Quarter Quell, the male and female tribute will be reaped from the existing pool of victors" Peeta stops stroking my hair and my mom lets out a cry. "What does that mean?" Prim says. I just stare at the television still processing what I just heard. I stand up and simply walk out towards Haymitch's house.
"Sweetheart, are you okay?" I shake my head slowly and he walks over and pulls me into his arms. The second he does I start sobbing "I can't go back in. Peeta can't go in. Aren't they breaking some kind of rule?" I sob into his shoulder.
"Keep him safe this time Haymitch promise me" I sob out "Shhhh, I promise Sweetheart, I promise." I hear foot steps but I don't look up "Peeta take her home but don't leave her, that's the last thing she needs" I hear Haymitch say to Peeta.
I feel myself being lifted and I wrap my arms around Peeta's neck, sobbing "Shhh Katniss, it's gonna be okay I promise" Peeta lays me down on my bed before crawling in with me. I curl into his side and slowly fall asleep.
