Chapter 13: Just One Yesterday

"Letting people down is my thing baby. Find yourself a new gig
This town ain't big enough for two of us
I don't have the right name, or the right looks
But I have twice the heart"

POV

She tasted like fruity alcohol and for the first time in days I feel something other than pain.

I'm never getting drunk again. My head feels like it's about to explode and my body is unnaturally warm. I rub my eyes and roll to my back when I feel an arm tighten around my waist.

"Mm Peeta" she mumbles. Holy hell I'm an idiot. God I should of just went home.

I slowly open my eyes and look over to see a nest of blonde hair. Glimmer Perkins. Why the hell am I in bed with Glimmer!

I steal myself and glance under the blankets, thankful to see my pants still on and Glimmer fully clothed. Thank God. I sit up carefully and grab my shirt and shoes from the floor.

"Where are you running off to lover boy?"

She sits up and wraps her arms around my shoulders whispering seductively in my ear "I'm not done with you yet".

God, what the fuck have I just gotten myself into. I peel away slowly grabbing my keys and phone off the nightstand.

"I'm sorry I have a band meeting this morning and I'm already running late. But I'll catch up with you later" I say offering her my phone for her contact. I probably won't use it, but I'd rather leave on good terms. The last thing I need is an angry Glimmer running to the media.

She flashes me a smile when she's done. Stepping off the bed and backing me up against the dresser. She slides my phone in my front pocket purposely brushing against my morning wood. Her hands slide up my chest and grip my head pulling me down to meet her lips.

"I had a great time Peeta, I hope we can finish what we started later".

I swallow hard and nod. I need to get the hell out here and quick. Luckily, she lets me go easily and I head straight out the door.

Once I'm in my car I check my phone and notice miss calls from just about everyone. Everyone except Katniss. Fuck! Just thinking about her brings everything back up and now I've got to go face those lying assholes.

I still can't believe they sat by for almost 6 months while I cried over her and blamed myself. All the while they knew she was keeping the biggest secret of my life from me. they were going to let her keep my kids from me. Let them grow up thinking their father didn't care. Let me move on thinking I'd fucked up somehow and caused her to leave.

All for the band.

Well fuck them and the band.

The sound of my phone ringing brings me out of my thoughts, and I look down to see Finicks name. I roll my eyes and click accept.

"yeah" I call out.

"Peeta! Where have you been? Do you have any idea how worried we've been!" he shouts back. If I wasn't so pissed, I would have laughed at how parental he sounds.

"I'm on the way back. Is everyone there at the house?" I needed to know who knew what and why no one bothered to clue me in.

"Yeah were all here, Effie called and needs us to do a video call with the record label later on today. You up for that?" I rolled my eyes. Of course, it had something to do with the band. Never mind I just lost my father and am still sifting through my Katniss situation.

"Sure, just let everyone know I'd like to speak with them when I get there". He acknowledges my request and hangs up.

By the time I get to Finnick's I've calmed down a bit. I know I can't all of this on them, even though it would be shitty if they knew and didn't tell me. I have to admit it was on Katniss to be honest and tell me.

With that I walk in and find everyone here but Jo. Knowing her she's probably with Katniss.

"So, I'm sure you all probably already know I went to see Katniss yesterday. I was having a rough day and thought she could help me out. Little did I know I ended up finding out I'm going to be a father to twins".

I glance around and notice Finnick and Annie look genuinely shocked. Gale on the other had looks uncomfortable.

"So, you and Jo knew?" I asked. He swallows hard and sighs deep.

"I didn't at first, just Jo. she only told me because our families are real close. Have been since we were children. i would have found out one way or the other. You got to understand it wasn't anything against you Peeta. Katniss is like a sister to me and she made me promise. I couldn't betray her trust".

I scoff "but betraying my trust is ok? I'm going to be a fucking father! Did any of you think of me or what I wanted?"

"I'm sorry Peeta. I thought I was doing the right thing by letting her decide when and if she told you. Jo and I tried to convince her but you know how stubborn she can be." Gales pleads.

"I get it, you're in a tough spot but you do realize how fucked this situation is. Had my father not died who knows if she ever would have told me. And you all would have gone on making me believe everything was fine, that she just didn't want me anymore".

Finnick ever the peace maker comes and lays a hand on my shoulder. "Peet, I know what they've done is fucked up, but this sounds like a conversation you should be having with Katniss. Yes, they shouldn't have kept this from you but in the end she's the one who hurt you. But more importantly now that your armed with this information, what are you going to do with it?"

I hate it when Finnicks right. We'd got ourselves into this, we'll have to figure a way out. But not today. I need a day or two to just think.

After a night of sulking I call the only person who could remotely help me think.

"little brother, how are you holding up?"

"Hey Wheaton, I've got some news".
