Chapter 13

Instead of going back to Finns with everyone else, Peeta suggested getting some coffee. That's why we are walking past the Bakery. I am feeling so giddy. It's pathetic! I'm acting like one of those silly girls in a rom-com, on one hand I can't stand the way I'm acting but on the other I am just so excited that Peeta likes me too. I don't know how most teenage girls go through this; it's such a strong feeling. Whenever I'm near him I get butterflies, every time he touches me, even in the slightest way it makes my heart accelerates, I get little electric shocks as his fingers rub circles on the backs of my hands.

"Katniss…" gosh his voice is just so damn dreamy… "Katniss!" look at him, so yummy in his gym gear… "KATNISS!" Peeta yells. Crap, he was asking me something but I zoned out.

"Sorry, I zoned out. What did you say?" I furiously blush.

"I was saying that you need to decide what we are telling the others?" he sighs. He has a point. Are we actually dating or is it all still for show? I know how much I like him but I don't know to what extent his feelings are for me.

I take a deep breath and sigh. I'm sure the others will be able to notice the difference the second I walk through that door. "We need to tell them Peeta." I say looking down. Suddenly a bit embarrassed that it's taken me this long to admit my feelings. Jo and Annie are not going to let me live this down. I can already see their reactions.

"What is this we are exactly telling them Kat?" a smirks playing on his lips. I squat is arm, feeling so relieved that he is mine. "Okay so we walk into Finns like nothing has happened." He looks me straight into the eyes and I smile. "Let's just see how long it takes them to figure out?" he chuckles. "it's down to us, who can keep away the longest. Deal?"

"Deal" I say with a giggle. Peeta grabs my hand and pulls me back towards the car.

"About time" Jo moans the second we step through the doorway.

"Sorry, but dont look at me. Its not my fault someone takes ages to get changed" I say whilst 'glaring' at Peeta trying not to laugh or smile.

"Hey, hey" he puts his hands up in a defensive way. "Even though looking this good" he points at himself "does come naturally to me. It does take some work to maintain it" Peeta glances at Finn.

"Phft" Annie smirks. "Thats exactly Finns excuse." She rolls her eyes and squats Finns arm off her thigh.

Everyone bursts out laughing, while Peeta and I move towards the empty seats.

Looks like this little bet of ours has jut gotten interesting. The only room left is next to Jo on the sofa. Peeta casually sits in the middle ignoring the fact I'm practically going to be sitting on his lap.

Just as I'm about to go and make Gale sit on the floor, Peeta gives me a look that says 'I dare you'. I automatically walk straight up to the sofa and sit in the tiny gap left and act as if thats what I planned all along.

"Right now everyones here, its time I get my grub on" Gale rubs his hands together and smiles a cheesey grin. "Pizza anyone?"

From the corner of my eye I catch Jo rolling her eye at him, but a massive smile has fought its way onto her lips.

"Really again? Is this all you eat?" I moan.

"Yes" everyone apart from Peeta replies. Of course he can cook he works in a bakery. I bet he makes his own food most nights.

I bow my head and moan. Peeta clearly decides hes bored of the rules and changes it up a bit. Very slowly his hand moves so it is very casually resting on my thigh, like Annie did to Finn I have a deep urge to smack his hand away. But that would be letting him win.

When its Jos turn to look at the menu thats being thrown around I pull my very revealing top down some more and lean over Peeta. Acting completely oblivious that my hand has fallen right above his groin.

"Hmm.." I pretend to read the menu. "I'll have what ever Jo's having." I decide and slowly move to sit back, this time closer to Peeta than I already was.

Clearly Peeta wanted payback as, when i sat down i felt something pinch my ass. With out realising i squeal. Going bright red.

"Omg Kat, dont sit on my hand." He moans pretending it was my fault and that his hand now hurts.

Gale and Finn start chuckling, but soon shut up the second they see the death glares i'm giving them.

"Right, Jo and Gale go and get the pizzas. Finn go and see if you can find a horror movie we havent watched upstairs. Kat we are going to get some duvets and pillows and stuff to make it comfy here and Peeta you are going to get all the hot chocolate stuff ready for later." Annie declare.

"Wait a sec. We are totes having a slumber party!" Finn pretends to be all girly and jumps up and down. "Ouch. What was that." Finnick starts rubbing his head. I turn in the direction the flying remote came from and see that it was Annie who threw it at him.

"Sort of" she says. "Right now everyone hurry up and lets get this show on the road." She starts shooing us out the door. "Dont forget to tell your folks your all saying here the night" she smiles her famous Annie grin.

"Come on Kat. We need to start preparing."

Annie takes me upstairs in Finns house. "Grab anything soft and warm." She instructs then walks off into another room.

Once I have already made ti sucsessful truos back and forth with bedding, i realise as i'm folding up a duvet, that tonight will be a perfect time to make Peeta loose this silly little bet.
