I don't own the Hunger Games
Chapter 11:
"Effie? Is that you?"
"Yes, yes, yes! How are you, Katniss?
"Good thanks."
"Now to the reason I called. I'm calling you, to come to the Capitol!"
"Th-the Capitol?"
"Yes! I need you to come, with Peeta of course! There are interviews to be done! And- you've been invited to a special party!"
"Party? What for?"
"Well, lets just say we're celebrating almost four months of freedom! Interviews would like to be done! If you agree to come, a train should be in District 4 tomorrow morning!"
"Wait, how'd you know I was in District 4?"
"Katniss, it was all over the news!"
"Wow, no privacy in the Capitol, isn't there?"
"I guess so. So are you coming?"
"I-I guess…"
"Good! See you an a couple days!" and with that she hangs up the phone,
Great, I'm going back to the Capitol, where all the 'fun' began.
I come back into the dining room.
"That was Effie." I say, Peeta raises a brow,
"Effie? What did she need?"
"Well, lets just say we are going back to the Capitol tomorrow."
"What?" he says, and then I can hear Theria choke on her food.
"You're going back to the Capitol?" she asks, I sit back down on the table.
"I suppose, she just called. Inviting Peeta and I to some sort of party."
"Really? Well I guess I'm going back to District 12 alone.."
"Theria, you can come if you want."
"I suppose, but I'd be interfering with your business. Anyways I have to get back to do my work."
"Are you sure? I mean I'm sure she wouldn't mind."
"Yeah, I'm sure. On the plus side, it's been fun hasn't it?
"It has," I smile.
"-And we've had our, interesting times." She says, with a smirk on her face.
"You just walk in, at the wrong time, every time."
"What's this?" my mother asks.
"Dare I explain?" I say.
"I caught them. Kissing, almost ten times."
"Ten times? Now that's over exaggerating."
"Is not! I saw it with my own eyes."
"Yeah, you saw it with your own eyes… three times."
"Fine."
"Wow, I didn't know." My mother says, "It's good that you two are, doing well."
"Yeah.." I say, and then I blush once again, for some stupid reason.
Theria laughs, "You're blushing again."
"Am not!" I say, but in result, my cheeks start to burn more.
"I'm going to take the plates out now." I say, getting up, taking empty plates.
It's getting late. I'm sitting on my bed. But I don't want to sleep by myself tonight. I don't want any more nightmares. I get up and I walk into Peeta's room again, knowing this will be our last night in District 4, and we have to go to the Capitol.
"Peeta, I was wondering if I could stay here, again for tonight."
"Sure," he smiles.
I walk over to the bed silently; I sit on the bed and envelop Peeta in a hug. I have a lot of thoughts to process. I've been in the hospital because of my careless actions. I have worried Peeta to death. We had been in the hospital for at least a week and from what Effie told me, it was all over the news in the Capitol. And now, we are going to the Capitol tomorrow. I have a feeling we should discuss everything, in the privacy that we have here. If we have the conversation in the Capitol, surely we would get caught, then there would be no privacy at all. So may as well talk whilst we have this luxury of privacy.
"Do you think it will be okay? Going to the Capitol?" I ask.
"Maybe. As long as it's not the too much like it was before…"
"Yeah.." I pause for a moment,
"Peeta… I'm sorry I got attacked. "
"What? Why would you apologize for something like that?"
"Well, if I hadn't gone out that late, this wouldn't of happened. I wouldn't of worried you."
"But Katniss, you're okay now, that's all that matters to me. If something bad happens, I have to prepare myself for it. I was worried. But with the expertise of today, I guess I shouldn't worry too much."
"But what if-"
"You know, whatever happens, if you couldn't walk, if you were left with scars, if you were left with recurring nightmares. If your shoulder was permanently damaged." He says, pointing to my shoulder. "I will always worry. I will always care."
His hand finds a lock of hair and he curls it back behind my ear.
"I will always love you. Alright?"
A smile spreads across my face and I nod.
"Okay. Me too."
I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him in for a kiss. His hands find my waist, and then I pull him closer, eliminating the space between us. Nothing could destroy this moment. Nothing.
We fall asleep in each other's arms again some time later. I fall asleep knowing that I wont have any nightmares tonight, or anytime soon.
Yay. It's doneee… I had fun writing this one. Just just. YAY.
