Hi! Thank for all the reviews, follows, and favorites! I really appreciate it! so, I know I have been updating everyday, but school starts again tomorrow, so I will only update once a week. There will be a texting conversation in this chapter. Peeta will be bold with italics and Finnick will just be bold.

Finnick's POV

I have known Peeta for a while, and all this time I never thought Delly was the perfect match. Delly is nice and all, but I always knew there would be someone out there that would make Peeta really be in love. Truthfully, I do believe that special girl is Katniss. The way he had that blush creeping up his cheeks when he was talking to her, and the way his face looked after kissing her, I knew this girl meant something to him, event if he didn't want her to.

Peeta, what are you gonna do?

What do you mean...

Its obvious you like Katniss more than just a friend

No I don't!

Stop trying to fool yourself! I've known you forever, and you never acted this way around a girl before

Well, um, ok

What are you gonna tell Delly?

I'm gonna tell her the truth. I'll tell her everyone in the stadium was chanting for us to kiss. That I waved them away, but it didn't work. It only lasted two seconds, anyways

Not really. Peeta, we both know u like this girl, and those feelings weren't only for two seconds

So are you saying i should break up with Delly? She'll be heartbroken!

But you can't live a lie, either, Peeta

Your right. I just don't want to hurt her if i know this was only a temporary thing. What if she doesn't feel the same about me?

First of all, I think she does. Jo was laughing at her reaction, and I think it was a reaction that she likes you. Second of all, even if she didnt like you, you have feelings for another woman that you are not engaged to! You cant marry the wrong girl!

Thanks Finn. I'll take her to dinner tomorrow or something. I hope we'll still be friends

Knowing delly, she wont go insane. Yes, she'll be very annoyed, but im sure u can still be friends


"So Kat, where do you live?" I ask.

"Excuse me?" she says

"I meant, where in California do you live? Not your address" I say with a laugh.

"Oh. Well, we live like twenty minutes from here in a town Ocean Blue."

"No way! We just moved to Ocean Blue! I can't believe we never met before!" I say.

"Are you four doing anything on Sunday? I actually am having a barbeque at my place. You can meet some of our friends." I say.

"Um, ya, that would be fun. Here, I'll give you my number so you can text me the details." I say. He hands me his phone and I type it in.


The next day...

Peeta's POV

I have not ever done anything that I have been this nervous for. Delly is just so nice. I feel like I will ruin her if I do anything like this. I just have to keep telling myself that it is better to tell her myself than have her find out another way. So, this is why I am now sitting at a table for two at a casual restaurant near her work. She is supposed to be here any minute now.

A few minutes go by, until I see a happy Delly walk in and take a seat on the other side of the booth. "Hey Peet." She says and smiles.

"Hey Dell." I say and smile back. "How was your day?" I ask.

"It went well. The restaurant was really busy today." Delly owns a breakfast restaurant downtown.

"That's good." I reply

"So, what was it you wanted to talk about?" She asks. I take a deep breath, and I think she can tell it is not good.

"Delly, first of all, I want to tell you what happened at the baseball game. Well, Finnick, Gale and I were sitting in a row, and I was on one of the ends. You know Claudius Templesmith, the announcer? Well, he must of thought the girl that was sitting next to me either a friend of mine or a girlfriend. So, when they had the kiss camera go around, it landed on us. I tried waving them away, but they wouldn't move. So finally, we kissed, but it was not more than two seconds. I can promise that. I have truly felt terrible about it since then. The girl had three friends with her, and Finnick kept flirting with one of them. So then, Finnick invited them to come to come to his barbaque that he is having on Sunday. And Delly, I do love you, and all of this time I truly did have feelings for you. But Delly, I think this needs to end. That girl I think I might have feelings for. I really am sorry, Delly. I really hope we can still be friends. And I mean it, too.

"Peeta, I don't know whether to be angry, or just annoyed. I mean, I would of liked if you didn't kiss her, but I am happy for you I am glad you found someone who will make you happy. What's her name by the way?" She asks.

"Katniss Everdeen" I reply.

"Oh, was her mom the one that was engaged to your dad?" She asks.

"Um, ya" I answer.

"Well I hope things work out for you. And I really do hope we can remain friends." She says. I feel really bad right now, because it look like she's trying to plaster a smile on her face. I stand up after she does.

"Delly, I honestly do not think I have ever had a better best friend than you. I do believe we can still be friends." I say. We hug for the last time, and then she walks out the door with her head held high. She is being such a strong person, and I feel terrible for what I have just done.


Wow, Delly took that really well. Next chapter will be the barbaque. By the way, it is like the middle of July in this story. Please review! Even if you didn't like it, I would love for you to still review:) I need 35 reviews for the next chapter!
