When I get outside katniss's house I seem to have arrived at the same time as finnick.
'hey peeta, see you have found your way here'.
I just nod my head. Katniss's house is massive and looks pretty expensive to me.
'she's mega rich because her dad owns a record label by the way', finnick tells me.
He knocks on the door and johanna answers it and lets us in.
'hey fish boy, hey bread boy', says johanna. Katniss and annie come downstairs and are followes by ale and madge. Thresh has yet to arrive.
'come upstairs boys', says Katniss and well all follow her upstairs, into a room with a flat screen pool table, bar, bean bags, built in aquarium that katniss's calls her 'cave'.
The night goes on with several games of pool and watching films. When watching the hunger games johanna decides she want to play truth or dare.
'who wants to play truth or dare', says johanna,
'alright just be aware peeta this game never ends well'. Says gale. And everyone agrees.
After a few vicous dares and hard truths it's finnick turn.
'finnick truth or dare?' questions gale
'dare',
'I say yougo down stairs and go into the room katniss's parents are in with just you pants on', says gale.
'okay sure I'll do it'. Finnick runs downstairs in his pants and you can hear katniss's mum shriek and then start laughing along with hr father. When finnick comes upstairs it's my turn.
'ok truth or dare', says finnick
'dare',
'I dare you to kiss katniss',
Katniss doesn't seem to bothered about it that much so I get up and them we put our lips together and Katniss seems to melt into it and then we pull away. I felt it, It felt like electricity went through me and I knew she felt it because all through the evening she kept watching me and blushing when johanna whispers something in her ear.
We then decide to watch another film and Katniss is next to me. The film we are watching is called paranormal activity 4. When the scary bits come on Katniss grabs my arms and buries her head in the crook of my elbow. Everyone seems shocked that Katniss has been acting like this since I arrived.
I found out finnick was my neighbour and we walked home together and we started talking about random things,
'I know Katniss likes you and you like her because I see it in the way you look at each other and the reason we all looked shocked is because Katniss has never been so forward with a guy she barely knows', says finnick
'really I don't think so…'
'yh, let me tell you something, katniss has never wanted a boyfriend she thinks they are a waste of space of you ask her, yet she likes you and I mean really likes you, when gale got dared to kiss her she freaked out yet when you got dared to kiss her she didn't react she just got up and kissed you full on the lips as if you were already going out or something'.
When I get in I get riley pounding me with questions like
'who was there'
'what's her house like'
'are you classed as one of them now'.
And I just reply with 'all of the other people she sits with, massive, I don't know to be honest', I didn't tell him about the kiss because it was a dare and it probably didn't mean anything.
Katniss pov
After the boys left, johanna, madge and annie stayed for a sleepover.
'who do you like katniss', asks annie
'it's obvious isn't it, it's peeta' butts in jo. I give her a death glare.
'I do but don't tell anyone', shrieks are spread across the room
'wow brainless finally ikes someone, hell must of froze over', I give her a sarcastic laugh,
'I wouldn't bother, I don't think he likes me', I tell the girls,
'he does you can see it In his eyes, he really likes you', says madge
'yh, you got his phone number, text him, if not you'll never know how he truly feels'. Says annie.
So I dot I sent him 3 words that can change my life in many ways more than one
Peeta's pov
I get out the shower and realize I have a message on my phone, I look at it and see a message from Katniss,
It reads
' I like you'
Im too stunned to do anything, is this a dream or what there's no way a girl like Katniss likes me.
( peeta and italics are Katniss).
I like you too
I've liked you since I laid eyes on you I can't get you out of my head, they say out of sight out of mind but it doesn't work for me.
