To make it up to everybody for not updating, I made this chapter longer than my others. I am doing fine now, thanks to those who asked. Love you all and enjoy this chapter!
Right now I am pretty pissed at whoever runs this site because they deleted some of my favorite stories. I don't think any of mine are in danger, but if they are, I will just have to deal with it. I tried to see if I could do anything about it, but there are so many other people trying and failing (epically), so I'm gonna stop and hope for the best.
So if I do have smutty scenes and you would like the original chapter, if it happens (probably), then review and say you want the original chapter. That's not going to happen in this chapter, so yeah. I'll let you know at the top of the page if there's gonna be a smut scene. That's all.
Chapter 12 – Katniss's POV
The doctor hands me some crutches. Great, that's exactly what I need. I make my way to where Peeta and Annie are. Once Peeta spots me, he stands up and rushes over to me. "Peeta I-" His lips lock to mine. I want to pull back and finish, but he bites my bottom lip. I gasp and moan into his mouth. Enough, I need to talk to him. "Peeta."
"What?"
"Annie is still here." There's a good excuse.
"Oh shit, yeah. We're in public."
I look at the ground and hear Annie giggling. "Peeta."
"Yes?"
"I'm sorry, I should have been more careful going down those stairs."
He puts his hand on my cheek. My face is warm and the spot where he touches me ignites. "Katniss, it isn't your fault."
"But," he cuts me off.
"No. Not your fault." Except it is. I was not paying attention. I was too worried about everything I own and if it were to be burned to nothing within a matter of seconds. "What's the diagnosis?"
I shake out of my trance. "I sprained it pretty bad. They said crutches for a little. I have to wrap it and ice it and elevate it, all that stuff." He looks into my eyes and I barely manage to get the last part out. "My mom is a nurse so she knows what to do."
Peeta smiles at me and the three of us head to the car. Annie grins from ear to ear. Once we get in, Annie looks back to me. "Katniss guess what?"
"What?"
"I caught Peeta zoning out on a couple with a baby." Peeta's jaw clenches and his cheeks go red.
"Did you know them?" Maybe he can save himself from whatever is happening and play along.
He grips the wheel and shakes his head. He says quietly, "No."
"Oh, then-"
Before I can finish, Annie turns around. She cups her hand by my ear and whispers, "He was picturing you and him holding the baby. Peeta really loves you, you know. Like, a lot."
I smirk. "Oh."
Peeta keeps a somewhat cool face. "Annie, what did you tell her?"
She beams and buckles her seat belt. "It's girl stuff. You wouldn't like it."
"Uh, I think I have a right to know." His knuckles turn white.
"Maybe later." Peeta starts the car and drives off. The whole ride back, he looks deep in thought.
What I would give to know what he was thinking about right now…
What did Annie mean? Is it true? Is Peeta thinking about us that seriously? One thing for sure; I said to myself a long time ago that I am never going to get married and I am never going to have children. Why? Hell if I know…
We are told that we can go back home. A few were really burned and still needed "professional attention."
Peeta opens the door to my dorm room and gestures for me and Annie to go in before him. When I walk-or whatever you do on crutches-into my room, I see Cato, Johanna, and Finnick sitting in a circle. "What's going on here?" I ask. At least it's not another threesome.
Johanna stands up quickly. "We were waiting for you!"
I feel Peeta's breath in my ear. "Who is that?" he points to Finnick.
I whisper back to him, "That's Finnick. he and Annie are, well," what are they? I have no idea. "It's complicated. They are like madly in love with each other but are too shy to admit it." He makes and "o" shape with his mouth and looks to Annie. I follow his gaze. She has her eyes set on Finnick. I look back to the other three. "So, why are you guys waiting for us?"
"Well, we can't play truth or dare without you!" Johanna says.
Peeta looks at the floor. "I don't know if I want to play truth or dare," he pauses, "with you two." He points to Johanna and Gale. "Plus, Katniss's ankle is not in perfect condition, so I think she should rest. I could help her."
"No, Peeta. I'm fine." I pull on his arm. "This isn't actually a bad idea. One last chance to hang out with everybody before we have to lock up and get ready for finals." He looks hesitant. I kiss him and pull back quickly, anxious for his response-which I know is going to be yes.
"Fine. But you're not doing anything that could get you hurt anymore."
"Deal."
We all get situated around the room. Peeta is making me lay on my bed with my foot up and on ice. It isn't really worth fighting over, so I just give in to it. Peeta is sitting against the wall at the foot of my bed, Annie is on the floor next to my night stand, Finnick is right next to her, but not too close. They exchange glances when the other isn't looking (quite hilarious to watch, actually). Johanna and Cato are leaning against Johanna's bed.
"We'll go clockwise around the room." Johanna states. "I'll spin the bottle and whoever it lands on, I ask truth or dare, they pick, then," she shakes her head. "You all know how to play." She spins an empty beer bottle on the floor. It lands on Finnick. "Okay Finnick, truth or dare?"
He leans his chin on his hand and rubs it very dramatically. "Dare."
Johanna smirks. "Make out with Annie."
His face goes bright red. Annie's jaw drops and her face is as red as his. "Uh, uh," he can't get another word out.
"Come on, Odair! And when I say make out, I wanna see some tongue!"
He turns to Annie. He gulps and leans in. Annie quickly closes the gap. It isn't long before his hands are on her waist and her hands are in his hair. A good minute goes by. Cato throws a pillow at them and they pull away from each other. They breathe deeply and just stare at each other. Then Finnick pulls Annie in for another kiss. "We get it! It's about time you finally realized your love for one another, can we just get back to the game?" They pull away again.
"Shut the fuck up, Cato!" Finnick says with a hostile grin. He takes the bottle and spins it with his hand so it will land on Cato. "Truth or dare, Cato?"
"Come on, man! You can't do that!"
"Who says I can do that?" We all are fine with it. "The people have spoken. Truth or dare?"
"Truth." Cato looks terrified. This is gonna be good.
"If you, uh, no." Finnick gets up and starts pacing. He mouths words to himself. "Got it." He grins. "Did you ever touch and or make out another guy in a threesome?"
Cato shakes his head, "I don't want to answer that."
"So that's a yes."
"No!"
"Oh, really?"
"God damn it Finnick!" Cato says through his teeth. Finnick just laughs. "Yes. I did. Once. Now can we please move on?"
"Sure." Finnick sits back down. I can't help but laugh after the Cato-Finnick exchange that just happened. "Cato's turn."
Cato spins the bottle. It lands on Peeta. "Truth or dare?" Cato tries to hide his face, which I am assuming is quite pink at the moment.
"Truth." Peeta says confidently.
"Damn." Cato closes his eyes and leans his head back. "Okay, how many times have you masturbated while thinking of Katniss?"
Peeta gulps. What kind of question is that? Peeta mumbles something, but nobody can hear it.
"What was that, Peety?" Cato beams. Everyone is trying to hold in a laugh.
"Hell if I know!" He covers his mouth with his hand. He lowers his tone, "Like ten or something like that."
"Wow Peeta! That's nice!" Cato laughs. He's the only one laughing at this point.
"Shut up."
I kick Peeta lightly with my foot and smile at him. "It's okay, Peeta." I give him a reassuring smile. He shoots one back at me. "Your turn."
Peeta sighs and gets off my bed to spin. It lands on Johanna. "Truth or dare?" He sighs.
"Dare. And make it good. You pussies need to learn how to really play truth or dare!"
"I dare you to guess, between Finnick and Cato, who's penis is bigger then give a BJ to the one with the smaller one if you guess wrong. To be sure, you actually have to measure them."
Annie and I burst out laughing. Peeta starts to smile and laugh with us. "Well played, Mellark." Johanna shakes her head.
"You two," he points to Finnick and Cato. "You two can go into the bathroom so we don't have to see it." Peeta grins.
Johanna pets Peeta's head and follows Finnick and Cato to the bathroom. She locks the door behind them. "Damn Peeta!" Annie giggles.
"What?"
Annie's giggles turn into a laughing fit. I answer for her. "Where did that come from?"
He shrugs.
Moments later, Finnick steps out and closes the door. He presses his lips into a line to hold back laughter. "So," Peeta begins.
"Johanna was wrong." Finnick chuckles.
My eyes widen. "No way!"
"Way! She didn't even need a ruler!" Annie's hand covers her mouth.
"Oh, fuck!" Cato screams from the bathroom.
Peeta gets up and knocks on the door. "I didn't say anything about sex!"
Johanna's voice follows. "Cato just likes to scream."
"Okay, just hurry up." Peeta walks back and sits by me. "That was really awkward."
I rub his back. "You'll live."
After minute or so, Johanna walks out from the bathroom and returns to her spot. Cato walks very slowly and sits on Johanna's bed. His face is white and his mouth is wide open. We don't bother to say anything.
Johanna spins and it lands on me. Shit. "Truth or dare?" She acts like nothing has happened.
"Dare."
"Katniss! What are you doing?" Peeta glares at me.
"Johanna wouldn't hurt me with a dare, she's not that mean."
"It's true." Johanna reassures him.
"What's my dare?" I ask.
"Play the nervous game with Peeta. Let's say, uh, whoever wins gets a freebie. If there's a truth or dare they wanna skip, they can skip their turn."
"What's the nervous game?" Annie asks.
"You touch someone else until they are nervous." Johanna explains. "Oh, and it has to be done in this room. Peeta starts."
I sit up on my bed and let my legs hang off. Peeta puts his hand on my shoulder. I nod for him to keep going. His hand travels down my back and reaches my ass. He slips it into the waistband of my pants and then my panties. I gasp, but stay strong. "Hm." He takes his hand out and puts it on my cheek. This time, it trails down my neck to my chest. I hold my breath when he reaches inside my shirt and bra. I look at Johanna and smile. Her eyes are wide open.
Peeta takes a hold of my breast and squeezes. I moan a little. I look at him and he smiles. I clear my throat. "Continue if you must." He nods and takes his hand out of my shirt. Now he lifts the side of my shirt up and slips his hand into the side of my pants. I bite my lip as his hand moves towards my wetness. Everyone is staring in awe. I can practically read their minds…How can she last that long? How can Peeta last this long?
Peeta grabs my womanhood. I don't think I can hold in much longer. My hands grip my bedding. He slips his hand into my panties. "Okay, you can stop now." I finally get out.
"How far were you going to let me go, Katniss?" Peeta sighs.
I lean in and whisper, "I could have gone further, but I wouldn't have been able to stop." I pat his back. "My turn."
I reach my hand up the front of his shirt and rub along his abs. This is going to be quick; I can just feel it when he sighs.
My hand moves down and has no problems getting into his boxers. I put my hand around him. "Okay, I'm done." He pulls my hand out of his pants.
Finnick topples over laughing. "Peeta, you didn't last a minute!"
don't get used to the idea of a long chapter…it won't happen too often
please review!
