Chapter 12
The Next Morning
"Katniss! Get up for school now!" My mother called up the stairs.
"No mum, I'm not going!" I replied.
"Katniss Everdeen get your ass up out of that bed or so help me!" My mum shouted angrily. I could hear her walking up the stairs.
"Fine." I replied angrily, ripping the sheets of the bed and jumping out just as my mum came through the door.
"Katniss, what's wrong?" My mum asked gently.
"Nothing's wrong mum."
"There must be something wrong if your acting like this." She said. "What happened at Peeta's last night?"
"Nothing mum." I replied.
"Did he do something to you? I don't think Peeta would do something bad to you, he seemed like such a sweet boy. His father-"
"Mum."
"-is such a lovely man and Peeta looks so much like him when he was a boy it's just-"
"MUM!" I said raising my voice. "Nothing happened. Peeta didn't do anything."
"Oh." She said with a sigh of relief. "That's good. But why where you so upset when you came home last night?"
There's was a moment of silence. "I told him about Cato." I said quietly.
"Oh honey." She said, wrapping her arms around my shoulders. "Did it not feel better to get it off your chest?"
"I cried mum. I cried! In front of him, I'm so embarrassed. I can't face him again." I said.
"Katniss I'm sure Peeta understands. He won't judge you." She said.
"I hope not."
"Go get ready for school and stop worrying." She said giving me a quick hug.
"Ok." I replied with a small smile. I looked at my phone and a frown replaced my smile as I noticed the missed calls and text from Peeta. I ignored them though and got ready for school.
At School
"It's ok, he won't judge you." I said to myself as I walked through the school doors and into the music room.
Peeta's not here yet thankfully. About half an hour later and Peeta still hadn't shown up, much to the disappointment of all the girls but I could see that the majority of the boys where happy, since they where getting more attention now that Peeta wasn't here. Just as I was thinking this, Peeta came rushing through the door in a hurry.
"Sorry I'm late." He said breathlessly.
I could see all the girls fixing their hair and tidying their clothes, with smiles on their faces.
"Oh your alright Peeta don't worry about it, we where just about to begin the lesson." Cinna, our music teacher said.
"Um I was wondering if maybe I could sing a song." Peeta said.
"Yes of course Peeta." replied Cinna with a smile.
"Umm this is a song I wrote for someone very special, I hope you like it." Said Peeta shyly as he adjusted the strap of his guitar.
The day I met you
You told me you'd never fall in love
But now that I get you I know fear is what it really was
He locked eyes with me.
Now here we are,
So close yet so far.
Haven't I passed the test?
When will you realize,
Baby, I'm not like the rest?
Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong
Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to waste, to waste
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
There's just so much you can take
Give your heart a break Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
Oh yeah, yeah
On Sunday you went home, alone
There were tears in your eyes
I called your cell phone, my love
But you did not reply
Tears started to form in my eyes.
The world is ours. If we want it,
We can take it if you just take my hand.
There's no turning back now.
Baby, try to understand
Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break I know you're scared it's wrong
Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to waste, to waste
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
There's just so much you can take
Give your heart a break
So let me give your heart a break
'Cause you've been hurt before I can see it in your eyes
You try to smile it away, some things you can't disguise
Don't wanna break your heart
Maybe, I can ease the ache, the ache
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
There's just so much you can take
Give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
Oh yeah, yeah
The day I met you
You told me you'd never fall in love
I ran out of the classroom tears streaming down my face.
Sorry this chapter is crap and there is probably a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes in there but I really wanted to get this up for you all tonight.
Hope you liked the chapter, I'm a little rusty because I haven't been writing at all for a long time so this chapter is not really that good :/
Hope to have a new chapter up soon and hopefully better and LONGER than this one :)
Bye!
