Chapter 9: Plot Twist Of Life
Me and Peeta haven't seen each in two days since his accident. I'm actually afraid that something bad has happened to him. Or maybe he doesn't want to see me anymore. Is it that? I mean I kissed him back. I do like him. Does it mean he does not like me back? A knock at the door answers my questions.
As I clean the guts out of my kills, there is a knock at the door. I hear Prim yell, "I'll get it!" I let answer the door, and I hear her yell, "Peeta! You're back." I turn to see Peeta standing at the doorway, with a brown bag in his hands. I go to the bucket of water to clean my hands. As I dry them, I approach him. He greets me with his free arm open, and I hug him. He suprises me by placing a kiss on my cheek. I blush immediately and he winks at me. I remember our kiss and redden more. He kneels down to Primrose and says, "Hey can you do me a favor, Prim?" She nods and he says, "Close your eyes. I have a suprise." She closes her eyes and squeals, "I love suprises." He stands up quickly to scoop me in his arm and kisses me right on my lips.
Once he lets go, I'm breathless. He reaches into the bag and pulls out a cookie kneeling back to Primrose. How he can change demeanor so quickly, I have no idea. He says, "Open your eyes." She opens her eyes and squeals again. As well-mannered I taught her to be she asks, "Is it for me?" He nods and says, "Of course!" She takes it and bites it. She seems so happy, it's a memory I will remember. I'll have to make it up to Peeta. She asks, "Oh my gosh, this is so good, Peeta! Did you make them?" He nods and hands her the bag, "All for you, and your sister."
She snatches the bag and runs to the kitchen. Before I can call out to her for being rude, Peeta takes me into his arms to pull me in for another kiss. This time I can muster a kiss back. I pull back and say, "Thank you." He pecks my lips once more, and says, "No, thank you." I blush and he lets me go when Prim walks in. She's eating another cookie and smiles at us. I ask her, "How many cookies have you already ate?" She pouts and says, "Not to many." I ask, "Primrose?" She sighs and says, "Peeta made like 30 of them. Let me enjoy, Katniss." She comes to me and I ruffle her hair. "Okay, Prim but take it easy." She nods and looks at both of us.
Peeta clears his throat, "Katniss, actually I came to talk to you about something private." Primrose says, "Okay, I guess it's my cue to leave." Me and Peeta laugh and he says, "I'll make you more cookies." She runs to our room, and closes the door. He takes my hands and says, "Katniss." I nod and look up to him. Looking as handsome as ever I ask, "Yes?" He says, "I really like you. Like really, a lot." I blush and look down. Is this how it feels for someone to say that they like you? He lets go one of my hands to pick up my chin. "Katniss, please say something. Anything." I say what has been on my mind, "Since, you didn't come back I thought you didn't like me. But I need to tell you that I like you too." He grins and says, "Thank you." I blush and smile like never before. He looks to the door and pulls me into his arms. "I have to leave soon." he announces. I pout and say, "Not yet." He presses his cheek in my hair and says, "Can I see you soon?" I nod and say, "Anytime. Just let me know." He nods and lets me go. He pulls me in for one last kiss.
"I had to see you again. I'll be seeing you later, Kat." I blush and he heads for the door, as someone knocks. He turns to me with confusion. I go ahead and answer. I open the door to Gale.

Boy I want to know, lyin' that you're sexing me. When everybody knows, it's clear that you're upset with me.
