(Peeta POV)
Again I am awoken by the awful beeping of my alarm clock. Oh how I wish I could sleep for just another hour! You see, I was in the middle of an amazing dream. My dream was about Katniss and me in a grassy meadow lying on our backs and soaking in rays of sunshine. I was making jokes and she was actually laughing. Her smile is just so beautiful because it illuminates her entire face like the sun itself. I think back to last night and smile to myself knowing that she had said yes. I am going to have a date with Katniss Everdeen. Wow. Its 4:00AM so I might as well change into some clothes and walk next door to begin my shift at the bakery.
Today is my day to frost the cakes. Since its Autumn I am working on a cake that is covered with red, green, brown, and yellow realistic looking leaves. I pick up the frosting and get to work slowly adding all of the tiny details. Still, I can't seem to wipe the smile spread wide across lips. I continue to work while whistling and humming out of pure joy. My father walks in and notices this.
"Peeta is there something I don't know about?" My father asks with a smirk.
"Well," I say prolonging the 'l' "you know that girl, Katniss?" I say already aware that he knows who she is.
"Yes,"
"She agreed to go out with me!" I practically yell from excitement because these words are actually true. At this he engulfs me into a bear-hug while congratulating me.
(Mr. Mellark POV)
I am thrilled for my son. It's about time he asked the girl of his dreams out. I mean seriously, Peeta never stops talking about Katniss. This is the happiest I've ever seen him. I can't help myself from rushing over to give him a huge hug and enthusiastic congratulations. I let go of him and he sits back on his 'frosting stool' that he always sits on while decorating the cakes. Before exiting I take a glimpse at the time and remind him that if he is going to catch the bus he better leave right now.
"Can I just take the family car? Please?" He asks with hopeful eyes. I don't want to disappoint him considering how happy he seems right now so I just shrug.
"Thanks, Dad!" he exclaims as I toss him the keys. He is a very good driver and has had his license for 5 months now so I trust him with the car.
"You might as well finish up that cake before you go," I add before leaving the bakery.
(Peeta POV)
I hear the door shut and sigh in content.Soon enough, I finish up the last details on the cake and clean up. Taking off my apron, I shove the car keys in my pocket and go next door and into my room. I throw on a pair of dark blue pair of jeans and a tight, light blue, quarter length sleeve t- shirt that shows off my muscles and toned body. Hmm…. I guess lifting 100lb bags of flour does have its benefits.
Quickly I comb my hair and wash my face. I rush downstairs, step outside of the house, and open up the car door. Then, I put the keys in ignition and carefully back out of the driveway. A small grin appears on my face as I think about Katniss, excited to see her at school in which I will arrive at in roughly ten minutes.
**Heheh what will happen at school? One can only wait and find out! Haha I'm sorry if you find this chapter boring but I promise the next one will be more interesting.
