When Prim and I enter the Everdeen house hold, I see Katniss watching some television on her couch but Mrs. Everdeen is nowhere in sight. "Katniss you're awake! FINALLY!" she yells and heads for Katniss devouring her into huge hug. "Hi little duck." Katniss replies calmly. "Quack!" Prim giggles and Katniss smiles.
I take a seat in front of her on the other loveseat. "Hey Katniss. How are you feeling?" I smile at her. She looks startled for a second but soon recovers. "I've been doing better. I'm fine thanks." She smirks. My smile deepens. "So where were you guys? I woke up quite awhile ago and you weren't there." Katniss asks. Prim looks at me and I nod. A smile plasters on Prim's face. "Peeta said that I could go to the bakery with him, and we made you these! Cheese buns!" Prim holds out the plate and Katniss grins and takes one.
"Thanks Prim. You too Peeta" she says before taking a small bite at it. Prim sets the rest on the table. As Katniss swallows her last bite, She speaks up. "So did you have fun with Peeta Prim?" she asks her. Prim's face lights up. "It was GREAT! But we ran into the She-Devils along the way home. Do you think you can shoot them with your bow and arrow?" Prim asks sweetly. I am in shock once again with Prim. It seems that Katniss is also, hence the way her eyebrows shot up.
"Primrose?" Katniss stammers. "Why would you say such a thing?" she asks Prim. Prim looks so innocent and sweet, even for a twelve year old girl. "What? All I'm suggesting is…" Katniss cuts her off by putting one hand in the air. "No." she turns from a smirking Prim, to me.
"How was she? Was she to much trouble? You didn't have to take her with you if she-" I cut her off. "Nonsense Katniss. I liked it. I have too many brothers and I needed some sisterly time. Plus, she is actually very good company to have around." I wink at prim and she beams at Katniss, triumphant in a 'told you so' kind of way. I laugh.
Katniss smiles at me and shakes her head. "Well okay than. Thank you for keeping her company Peeta." I nod at Katniss in return. "I should get going now. Thanks." But before I stand up, Prim runs over to me in a hug. Katniss looks grateful and warm. When she lets go. She motions to me to bend down to her height. I do and she whispers in my ear "Thank you Peeta. And she does love you, you know. She just doesn't know it yet you'll see." I break away. And tell them good bye once again. And head home.
