After Peeta and I got back from the victory tour things changed. I started to feel things when I saw Peeta that I had never felt before. I finally understood after awhile. I love the boy with the bread.
Our love and proposal was fake on the tour. It was an act I put on to make sure that Snow wouldn't kill my family. Peeta and I were back on speaking terms but I could still tell he was hurt by my rejection of his love. I don't know how to tell him.
I walked out of my house ready to go hunting when I saw him. Peeta was coming back from his father's bakery. I started running like my life depended on it. I threw my arms around him and held on tight. He didn't hug me back at first.
"Katniss what's wrong?" he asked.
"I love you," I answered.
He pushed me away and said, "The cameras aren't here Katniss. You don't have to pretend to love me right now."
"No Peeta. This isn't for the cameras. I really do love you."
Before I even realised I was doing it I kissed Peeta. Not a fake kiss. A real, passionate one.
He didn't push me away this time. Instead I pulled away and I saw his face. His beautiful blue eyes once filled with hurt were now looking back at me full of love. He pulled me in for another kiss and I didn't stop him. He was the one to pull away this time.
"Is this real or not real?" he asked. I could see the hope in his eyes.
"Real," I said. I wish I could freeze this moment and live in it for the rest of my life. Here with Peeta. Our love once faked, is now real.
Peeta pulled me in for a hug. As I was looking over his shoulder in complete happiness I saw someone looking at me. Gale.
