I fell asleep on the couch and Peeta was upstairs in his room. I walked up and went into his room. He was still asleep, I smiled and laid down next to him. He kissed my head and wrapped his arms around me, this was the Peeta I love.
"Morning Katniss."
"Hey," I turned and kissed his cheek.
"Where did you sleep?"
"The couch."
"Katniss, I'm sorry! You could have come up to my bed. You know that."
"I know, but you were asleep when I came in to check on you and you looked so peaceful I didn't want to wake you."
" I'm sorry about what I said last night. I just, it looked like you were happy with him and I was drunk and I didn't mean any of it."
"I know. It's okay Peeta, really. "
"I love you."
"I love you too, don't forget the reaping is today."
"Yeah. I should probably get ready."
"Me too."
"Are you still trying to hide our baby?"
"From Snow and Panem? Yes."
"Oh," he stood up and walked to the closest getting me one of his shirts then walking back, "This is fancy enough, and it should hide it for the most part."
"Thanks," I looked up at him and smile.
"I'm going to take a shower. Want to join?" Duh, I thought.
"Sure," I smile. I walk into the bathroom and fold up what Peeta and me are wearing to the reaping and a towel for each of us while he turns on the water. I watch in the mirror as he takes his clothes off and then comes over to me.
"You showering in your clothes?"
"No," I turn around and take off my shirt and bra right in front of him then do the same with my pants and underwear.
"You...uh... ready," he stuttered blushing.
"Yes," I could hardly keep my voice steady and stepped into the shower. He got in behind me and handed me the shampoo.
"Want to shampoo my hair?"
"Why would I," I laughed.
"So you can touch my hair." I laugh gently then start shampooing his hair. He washes it out and I turn away to shampoo my own hair. I move my hair to one side as I put the shampoo in it. I feel Peeta's chin on my shoulder. He kisses my neck. Smirking I turn around and kiss him. He kisses back then I pull away.
"We should get out," I mutter. He opens the door and picks me up. He sets me back on my feet on the bathroom floor and hands me a towel. He wraps one around his waist after drying off and I start to put on my clothes.
"You're getting dressed already?"
"Peeta, later. On the train, okay? I promise."
"Okay," he smiles gently then gets dressed. He takes my hand and we walk outside his house and start towards mine.
"You look great. You will be okay. I won't let anything happen to you," I hear Gale's voice as I walk into the living room to see him with Prim.
"You can't be reaped this year Prim. Only me. Gale wont let you starve," I smile at him, "Could I have a moment alone with him?" Peeta who is still holding my hand sighs.
"I love you baby. I don't want him alone for that reason. I need to talk to him about my family. Just think about tonight," I whisper to him.
"I love you too," he kisses my lips strongly pulling me towards him at my waist. I smile at him and gently pull away.
"I'll be right back," he says so that Gale can hear. Once Peeta walks out of the room Gale walks over to me and kisses my cheek, then tries to kiss my lips.
"Gale, stop please. I love Peeta, I have to and I do," I looked into his eyes and he just nodded.
"Okay, but can we still kiss?"
"Not like lovers. Like brother and sister."
"When does that start?"
"Ten seconds," I say looking up at him. He kissed me quickly and I pull away.
"Ten," his face falls slightly, "Im sorry Gale. I love Peeta."
"I know. I love you Katniss."
"I know Gale. I know," I say and walk into the other room where Prim is.
