A/N: hei guys! so this is the last chapter! YAY! I finsihed! woot, thanks for sticking with me you guys, and I really love all your reviews out there. They always make my day. So Katniss and Peeta! YAY!

Peeta's POV: Katniss is sprawled out on the couch of her room. Right now it's just Gale, Prim, Madge and Rory and me here. Katniss fell asleep in my lap, so I moved her to the couch. Prim and Rory are having a conversation, something about Katniss and me. I smile at Katniss sleeping soundly. I had a heavy conversation with Gale earlier in the month. It somehow ended up with me on the floor, Gale cowering over me, and Prim and Rory breaking it up. He said that Katniss could never love me. That Katniss would be insane to love me. He pointed out all my flaws, that I would never really be good enough for Katniss. God, doesn't he know that? I know that myself. After some blood and tears, Gale said to me,

"Katniss deserves some happiness. Even if it comes in the form of a baker." And with that, he walked away. I don't think he really moved on. But I can only hope that he knows Katniss enough to respect her decision. And I think she's made her choice. That afternoon in the kitchen proved that to me. She said that she loves me. I would never leave her. Gale gets up to leave, taking Rory with him. He nods at me, and looks over to Katniss sadly.

Take care of her he mouths.

He's leaving today. He's 18 today. He'll be catching the train later on this evening. Katniss has her bags packed. I do too. Gale will be heading over to District Two, finding a nice and better job in a more promising place. Practical he says. Katniss, Prim, Rory, and I will be going home later. Back to District Twelve. I'm kinda sick of this place. Even though I'll be heading back after summer break is over. Oh well. About 2 and a half months in Twelve will be enough for me. I have a brilliant plan when Katniss turns 20. I'm going to propose in the Meadow exactly one month after her 20th birthday. But I don't want to focus on that right now. Just Katniss. I'm in the middle of watching Katniss' steady breaths when Prim speaks up.

"She deserves some that makes her happy." She whispers. Madge smiles at her sweetly and nods her head in agreement.

"I think that's you, Peeta." Says Madge. I smile at them, and then avert my eyes to Katniss. I look at her in amazement. She thinks she's ugly. She thinks she's not good enough for me. Sometimes I can't figure out what goes on inside her head. But I'm glad she's with me. In the middle of my trance, I see that Madge and Prim have gone off. Which leaves me alone with Katniss. I crawl over to Katniss and stroke her hair. She sighs contently, and her eyes flutter open. Then I'm greeted with a pair with warm silvery eyes. She always think they're the ugliest shade of gray. But I beg to differ. They're a beautiful shade of icy silver. They have small stripes of light grey in them and the smallest flecks of pale blue. They're so unique, that I can't believe eyes like hers could exist. Katniss smiles warmly, and pats the spot beside hers. I gladly climb in and she snuggles into me.

"Peeta?"

"Mmm?" I mumble.

"Stay with me?" she asks softly. I look into her eyes, and they're wide with fear. What a crazy child. She thinks she has to be scred that I'll say no? She's the only girl I could ever be with.

"Always." I say to her. She smiles back at me, and then closes her eyes. I stroke her forehead with my thumb. Until I fall asleep with my arms around Katniss' waist.

Katniss' POV: I wake up, with Peeta's arms still around my waist. I rouse him, and see that it's early morning. Guess we slept on the couch. I smile sheepishly at him and he beams. That's Peeta for you. Smiling so brightly, making his dark circles from sleep dissappear. I take his hand, and we walk to breakfast. Gale has left for District two, since he's graduated. Got into a fancy academy to serve in the police force. I guess that's Gale. I grab some waffles and a chocolate chip muffin. I bite into it and realize the ones Peeta make are much better. After we finish breakfast, Prim goes off to pack her things. Peeta gets his suitcase and we board the train. With all the people going and coming, it's easy for Prim and Rory to get lost. But they don't. We've been assigned seats, and Peeta and I are sitting a few rows behind Prim and Rory. But are still able to see them because they are seated the row next to us, but further ahead. I smile at Peeta who takes the aisle seat. I think I fall asleep with my head resting against Peeta's shoulder and my hand holding his. When I wake up, Peeta's head is resting on top of mine. Sleepy old Peeta.

'Peeta?"

"Mmmm?"

"I love you." I say. His eyes fly open and he smiles at me. Right now I think I'm happy. Peeta loves me and I love him. And I think I could stay like this forever. Peeta and I. So I decide not to ruin this moment. I suggle up beside him and fall under again. With nothing but good thoughts as the rocking train and the gentle humming coming from Peeta in my brain. I think this moment is perfect. And it's not until Peeta kisses my lips that I confirm my thoughts. This is perfect.

WOOT! last chapter!
