Hey, sorry for getting emotional last chapter, I just feel like you guys don't care anymore, but hey, I don't care, IM JUST GOING TO KEEP POSTING! Mwahahahahahahaha! I'm insane...
I run to the front of the crowd, with agonizing pain in my heel, but I get to the front and see I eyes were right, it was gale getting whipped.
I run in front of the person holding the whip, and get lashed on my cheek and I almost black out from the pain, but I hear Haymitch's voice.
"What did you just do?! She has another interview in a few weeks!" He says getting angry.
"Not my problem" a stern voice replies.
"Well, it is now! How am I supposed to explain this!" He says dragging me off the stage.
"Uh, sir that was enough whipping for his crime" a voice from one of the other peace keepers says, as the, I guess new head peace keeper walks off.
We untie Gale and carry him to my house and my mother starts treating him.
She gives me some snow to pit on my cheek, but I'm not her head priority right now.
I feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist and a kiss on my good cheek.
"What happened, you were too fast, all I heard was you scream in pain" he says talking fast and sounding worried.
"Gale got whipped, and I jumped in front of the whip and got whipped on the cheek" I say.
"Oh, are you ok? It doesn't really look like it" he says, fast and worried again.
"Cato, calm down, I'm fine, just a whip on the cheek" I say.
"Ok, sorry" he says slowing down.
I smile at him and take him up to the bedroom, not really wanting to see the damage on Gale.
I plop down in the bed, taking the rag with melted snow on it and throw in on the floor and I take off my jacket, boots, gloves, and my hat.
I look at the clock and see it's already one in the morning.
I look over and see Cato taking off his shirt, and I can't help but stare.
"Katniss, you really need to stop gawking" he says smirking.
"Well, you can't blame me, it's your fault you're just so hot" I say biting my lip.
"Oh Katniss, you are quite wrong; you are the hot one and I am the one who usually gawks, I just do it when you're not looking" he says crawling over to me.
As soon as he is close enough to kiss I feel little kick in my stomach, and I start giggling. As soon as I do I hear Cato mutter something like cock blocker and I laugh even harder, but stopping because of the AGONIZING pain of my cheek.
I hold it with my hand, but that only makes it worse and I press on it too hard and I black out, but I feel Cato lift me up in a panic.
I wake up with someone holding an ice pack on my face, or should I say snow pack...
I look up and see gale smiling down at me.
"Good morning Catnip" he says and I giggle a bit.
"Shouldn't it be me holding snow or something on you?" I ask and he laughs a little too.
"Well when I was up, watching you, not creepily, and I could hear you moaning and holding your cheek, so I grabbed some snow and put it on your cheek" he says.
"Oh, well thanks, where's Cato?" I ask.
"He fell asleep" he says.
"Hey, guess what?" He asks me.
"I don't know, what?" I ask.
"I started dating Leevy" he says smiling.
"That's wonderful!" I say about to sit up, but I feel dizzy and I fall back down.
"No no no, you need to take I easy, easier than a yesterday" he says.
"What do you mean?" I ask.
"You running to the front of the crowd, running me to your house" he says.
"You almost broke your ankle" he adds.
"Oh, I was just so worried, you know, best friend getting whipped almost forty times" I say.
"Oh, well take it easy from now on, do you want me to carry you to your room?" He asks.
"Sure, and thanks" I say as Gale picks me up and carries me to my room. We get there and he places me on my bed and kisses me on the top of my head, like something an older sibling would do, and then leaves, and I fall back asleep resting my head on Cato's chest.
Cato's POV
I wake up around seven am, and realize today Kat and I are leaving for the victory tour, well mostly her, still nobody knows I'm alive...
I kiss Katniss in the top of her head and she stirs, but falls back asleep.
"Kat, baby you need to get up" I whisper trying not to scare her awake.
Her eyes flutter open, and she even looks cute when she wakes up! She stretches and hopes out of bed, but moans and falls back on to the bed.
"Kat, are you ok?" I ask getting concerned.
"Yeah, just I'm not supposed to do to much walking" she says trying to get up again, but I stop her.
"Kat," I say getting serious. "You need you take it easy, I can carry you" I say getting up.
"Thanks" she says as I carry her to the bathroom.
I set her down, but before she can even turn on the water someone starts knocking on the door, and she hopes over and opens it and I walk behind her and see prim with crutches in her hands, probably for Katniss.
"Oh, thanks prim! Where did you even get these?" She asks taking them.
"Well, some people heard about your injury, and Haymitch found out and got some, so you can walk around more" prim says with a smile.
"Well, tell him I said thanks!" Katniss says.
"Ok, I will!" Prim says walking away, and Katniss closing the door and 'walking' over to the bathroom.
"I guess you won't need me to carry you anymore" I say acting sad.
"You can still carry me, I can just take a shower without you needing to be there" she says.
"Aww, man!" I say, laughing with her laughing with me.
"Well, I'm going to take a shower" she says stepping into the shower, already naked and with the water running, and I walk out of the room.
She walks out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her waist, with her prefect boobs showing.
Her prep team comes in and already start working on her, and I walk out and see primrose working on some homework.
"Hey prim" I say walk behind her.
"Hi!" She says, "can you help me with my math? It really hard!" She says really fast.
"Sure, I am great at math, what kind of math are you working on?" I ask coping how fast she talks.
"Fractions" she says, and I sit next to her.
Me and her work on her homework, and when we finish Katniss walks out wearing black leggings, and I thin jacket with a furry hood, a scarf around her neck, earmuffs, and boots that go up to her mid-calf with fur around the rim.
I walk over and wrap my hands around her waist and look her in the eyes.
"You look stunning" I say and blushes a light red.
"Thanks..." She says.
We walk to the train, well I walk, she kind of hops with her crutches.
She lets the press take a few pictures, and me and her get on train.
I look down at her belly, and see its gotten smaller, oh, no!
