Chapter 14 – KPOV:
A/N: So I've seen some people have complied with my request! So thank you to those who did! As for those of you who didn't, I think you should just finish reading this and review it already! ;P I'm just kidding, that's really mean. But I'm doing something new. I'm also going to respond to the anonymous reviews starting on this chapter. So if you're one of those anonymous reviewers, I will respond to you, too!
Lexicon04: Awesome… That's what I was going for! :-) Bluedog270: Yeah, short, sweet, and just braindead… PeetaLuver1: Yupp! Thanks! :-) Gabbybee7: Thanks! It's fine, ideas don't always come too easily. Back when Mrs. Mellark gave Katniss her memory back, I remember coming up with that. I was like, "AHA!" :D GirlonFire10203: Haha, thanks. :) Sometimes I think of you as my FanFic BFF… ;) EpicNinja8: I actually have a really good idea now… Big twist, and I plan to really make everyone mad at me with this chapter… *laughs evilly*
Gia: Well, Katniss knew Peeta from when he threw her the bread when they were younger. That was how she knew him and she didn't really want to be involved with him. So, in a way, they were strangers to each other, but, they did know each other's names. They just weren't all that close until they had their first kiss in the rain. That kiss was actually where I got the idea for the title, because… Kissing in the rain? That is so cliché! :)
By the way, they are Victors. I just don't really mention anything about the games unless they get nightmares about it.
ONE MORE THING! I am going to be posting a one-shot I wrote soon, so stay tuned for that! It will be up today or tomorrow. If I get enough reviews on it, there might be a sequel! :D
*2 years later*
"Come on, Peeta!" I whine, tugging at his hand as we trudge through the Town square. "You're too excited…" he says.
"Maybe I am, but I like to go the meadow, if you don't mind!" I say. Then I take off and sprint to the fence, crawling underneath as soon as I get to it. I hear his footsteps thudding after me. I turn around, and I see him ducking under the fence.
He grabs my wrist and pulls me close to him. He leans in and kisses me deeply.
I giggle, then sprint off to the meadow, leaving him to try and catch me. I quickly look behind me, and I see him running after me, a smile on his face. I run faster, and before I know it, I feel his arms around my waist and he tackles me to the ground. We burst out laughing.
It's a beautiful day. The sun is shining, there is a warm breeze ruffling our hair, everything is perfect. We sit on the flat boulder that overlooks the land beyond, when Peeta says, "Katniss, I love you so much."
"I love you, too," I respond, then lean in and kiss him.
"Come with me," he says, hopping off the boulder and taking my hand. I follow him through the meadow until we reach one particularly bright section of wildflowers. He picks up a few dandelions. He drops to one knee.
"Katniss, I love you. Will you…"
A/N: HAHAHAHAHAHA! YOU GUYS THOUGHT I WOULD FINISH THAT! Hey, take it as a late Easter gift, okay? Don't be sad! The next chapter is going to be really long. Like, maybe 2,000 words? That would be awesome if I could do that!
And Happy Easter! I totally was going to put this chapter in on SATURDAY! A little late there, aren't I? :)
Smile, God loves you! :D
May the odds be ever in your favor! ;)
