"it's ok, just be more careful next time." I say after a while.

"I'm so sorry. Let me buy you some new drinks." He said. Once I was able to actually look at him he turned out to be really cute.

No. Wait, what? No. Katniss you can't get interested, he probably already has a girlfriend, who knows he's probably married.

But while he's helping me pick up the glass that had broken I search for a ring on his left finger. There's none! No.

Prim comes first. "No thanks, I work here actually." I say pointing to my outfit. "Ah. So you're the famous Katniss?" he asked

"Umm… yeah, and you are?" I asked. "I'm Peeta. Johanna told me to ask you to dance, and if I didn't she'd throw that axe of hers at me."

"That's Johanna" is all I can think of saying right now. "Well I need to get back to work." I said. "Alright, but ill be back for our dance though" he said and sent a wink my way before disappearing into the crowd.

"You know, he's single." I heard Finnick say. "How'd you get back here?" I ask trying to change the subject.

"Don't even try changing the subject Katniss. He's single. You should talk to him. He hasn't had luck in his relationships.

He caught his girlfriend of 3 years in his kitchen with some other guy. He was going to propose to her that same night." he says looking at me with a huge smile.

What the hell? So you tell a total stranger you just met today about your friend being cheated on and your suppose to have a huge smile on your face?

Damn I need to get out of the house more often. "That was a year ago! Your single right, gorgeous?" he asked. Why do I think he know the answer to that.

"Yeah, why?" I ask. "You two are going on a date brainless." Shit. Just what I need "No. Johanna. No. You know I have bad luck in relationships too! Remember Cato."

Cato and I dated for 2 and a half years while we where in high school. Turns out he cheated on me with some girl he met at some bar.

But it actually didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. I had gotten drunk after I found out so I don't really remember much about that night just that I threw his stuff out the window and I ended up breaking his car windows.

Something tells me I was influenced a little by Johanna and the song I was listening to bust your windows by Jazmine Sullivan.

Flashback

"Katniss I need to talk to you." I knew something was wrong Johanna only calls me by my name when she needs to tell me something important.

"What's up Jo? You know I'm here for you; do you want me to cancel my plans with Cato?" I asked.

"This is about him Katniss." I felt my heart speed up a little. So many things where going through my head.

"What wrong Johanna? Is he hurt? Tell me." She sighed "Jerk isn't hurt Katniss. He was kissing someone at the bar today Kat.

He was there with some brunette. She was all up on him and he seemed to be enjoying it. They where half naked and went to the janitors closet, its kinda obvious what happened after that.

"But I gave her a piece of my mind." She says with a smirk "are you sure it was him?" was all I could ask.

She was talking about the guy that chose me over some girl, I think her name was glitter, Glimmer something like that.

"I'm sure brainless. It was him alright." I sighed. "Alright Jo, get the liquor out and put some music on. Ill be right back."

With that said I ran upstairs and threw Cato's stuff downstairs. I ran back downstairs and grabbed the shot glass Johanna was handing me before throwing Cato's stuff out the window.

"I need a refill Jo." I said not satisfied with the one I had just drank "Coming right up!" We where half way done with the bottle when I heard Johanna singing "I bust the windows out your car after I saw you lying next to her."

"Jo, we still have you baseball bat right" I always said I wouldn't go all crazy when someone broke up with me like they did on soapoperas but hey I was drunk, he took my virginity, and I really just didn't fuck.

"yeah, it's in the closet why?" I couldn't help but smiling "you gonna join me or what?" I asked "Sure, but where we going? "She asked.

When she's drunk she misses the obvious. Once I was done with every single window we went upstairs and fell asleep.

I woke up to a knock at the door "Katniss. Katniss, baby open the door. I forgot my keys!" what the hell does he want.

"What do you want! Get the hell out of my apartment or ill get my bow" I yelled

"What's wrong with you? Why are my stuff outside baby?" really and he's still going to have the nerve to call me baby! "Just get the fuck out my face; I heard you where fucking some other girl don't act stupid! Out!"

last thing I remember from that night was that Johanna came running from her room half naked with her axe swinging it around like a maniac. Shit was funny I got to admit that and Cato's face was priceless.

I couldn't help but laugh at the memory. Johanna knew what I was thinking of and she started laughing too.

Finnick was just looking at us like we where some crazy people. "No I don't know about this. You know I was down for a while after Cato. What if he turns out to be like that too?" I asked

"And I don't even know Peeta? What if he doesn't like me? I don't even know if ill like him." I said honestly

"that's why ya'll are going to go on a date brainless! Go dance with him right now!" she said. I hate Johanna right now!

"Ill go call you knight in shinning armour, gorgeous." He said while flapping his eye brows.

"Johanna! No!" I practically yelled.

"Johanna, no what?" asked Peeta. Great! Just my luck.

I wanted to run so fast, so fast and just run and run and run and never stop. But Johanna grabbed my arm like she knew that I was going to try and run. I couldn't blame her for grabbing me though, I had done it before.

"Nothing important." I said while glaring at Jo.

"So Katniss, do you wanna dance now?" Peeta asked. Oh god those eyes!

"Sure, let's go. Oh and Jo go give these to Gale over there" I said with a wink. She fixed her fair and said "my pleasure" and left.

"So Katniss, it's your first day here right." He asked.

"Yeah, do you come here often Pete?"

"Not often but when Finnick needs a wingman I'm here." I couldn't help but feel a little jealous; I know Finnick said that he hasn't had a girlfriend for over a year, but who knows?

I didn't say anything after that. Once I heard the music I just let the music get in me and tell me how to move.

I couldn't help but feel out of practice once I felt his hands on my waist, I mean I had went out with Johanna at times but that's completely different and she never puts her hands on my waist.

"You sure do know how to move Kat" I could feel his breath on my ear.

"Thanks, your not so bad yourself actually" the music slowed down and I knew it was finished but he kept hold of me

"another one, gorgeous" I rolled my eyes at the new nickname that Finnick and him where calling me by.

"Ugh, sure why not." It turned out to be a slow song and once he touched my hand I could feel little electricity coming up my hand all the way to my toes.

I knew he had felt something too because he just stared at out hands. He smiled shyly at me and we started dancing.

Once we where done dancing it was about half an hour before we had to close up the bar.

"I have to start cleaning, it was nice meeting you though Peeta"

"I had fun tonight Katniss, that's something I haven't been able to say in a while. Can I get your number?" he asked.

How could I say no to those eyes? "Yeah. Sure. can I see your phone?" I asked.

Once I was done with it I notice he had called someone but I wasn't going to ask who.

"Let's go brainless!" I heard Johanna yell

"I'm coming Jo. Well bye Peeta"

"Bye gorgeous ill see you tomorrow," he said while sending a shy smile my way.

Tomorrow? What does he mean tomorrow

? "Let's go Kat. Bye lover boy!" once we where in the car she just kept looking at me

"He's a Fine piece of ass isn't he?" She said with a smirk

"Wow Jo" I said while rolling my eyes.

When we got home that night I went straight to my room and laid down on my bed. I couldn't help but think of Peeta.

No Katniss. Remember Prim. You need to earn the money then you can date.

"Night Jo."I yelled

"Night Kat. Oh and Katniss," she said

"Yeah?" I asked

"Peeta's coming over tomorrow."
