' I'm not in the mood for visitors', I thought to myself.
"Who is it?", I shouted down the stairs.
" Just come here, you're gonna' want to to see him". HIm? Well I havn't seen anyone but Peeta and my mother for the past few months. Who would even want to visit us? I gradually make my way down the stairs, when he starts to come into my line of vision.
"Haymitch?", I ask stunned.
" It's me sweetheart, in the living flesh", he says smiling.
My eyes widen and my heart starts pounding rapidly. I run down the stairs as fast as my feet allow. I shove Peeta out of the way to get to Haymitch. I wrap my arms around his neck and dig my head into his chest. He doesn't smell of white liquor like usual.
" Wow Haymitch, you actually smell good for once", I said surprised.
" Same to you, sweetheart ", he said without batting an eyelash.
I was so happy to see him. Noone has seen Haymitch since he went into rehabilitation. He looks alot better. But he always has that scruff on his face. as usually. I guess it's his sigature look.
" I think she missed you", Peeta said chuckling.
" Just a little bit", I said with a smile. " but what are you doing here?"
He looks at me softly and says," I heard you were having a hard time, and thought you could use some cheering up".
"Well I think it did the trick, because she hasn't smiled like that in weeks", Peeta says kissing the top of my head. It's true , I havn't been this happy in weeks. Maybe months, Petta's the only reason I'm not completely depressed.
" Peeta..", I say.
" Yes hun?", he anwsers.
".. I love you."
" I love you too, honey", he said lovingly.
"There's my star-crossed lovers", Haymitch taunts. I really do love him, with all my heart. Honestly, I don't even diserve him. He's so kind and loving. I'm thinking while they are talking untill one of them says something to me.
"What?", I ask.
Haymitch laughes and says," Have you been in town lately?"
"Uhh.. no. Not for a while", I anwser.
"Well then lets go.I'll take her off your hands for a while Peeta", says Haymitch.
"Okay have fun you guys, just have Katniss back her by one-thirty. I have something for her", Peeta says.
"After you", Haymitch says opening the door for me.
"Thanks", I say. Well here we go.
It's the middle of spring. Today was the sunniest day so far this week, it was raining all week. When we stepped outside it was slightly humid but still damp with the smell of wet earthstill in the air.
" Ugggh, I hate that smell..", I trailed off.
" It's not the best, but you'll get used to it", he says,"you'll have to get used to a lot of things in life".
" Yeah", I say," Iknow".
"I'm not trying to lecture you."
"I know I'm just thinking..", I trailed off again. As we were walking I tripped on a rock and fell. I hit my head and was knocked unconcious.
The dream begins..
"Prim!", I scream as she's been taken away.
" Katniss", someone says behind me. I turned around cautiously. It's Prim. She looks perfect. " It's okay. Your safe here. Just listen to me. You need to be okay with my passing. You'll never be happy if you dont. Be more open to people, and new things. I love you ". Then she dissapeared.
