Chapter 7:

(KATNISS POV)

I opened my eyes and realized I was laying on a couch. Looking around, I saw I was in a train, probably on my way to District Two with Cato.

"Hey," Cato said picking me up. "We got here a few minutes ago, but I didn't want to wake you."

"Is she awake yet," I hear a younger girl's voice ask.

"She just woke up," Cato said. "Let's just bring her back to the house so she can meet mom."

"Ok," she squealed.

"Do you want to walk," he asked.

"Yeah," I smiled. "It would be nice to walk around District Two instead of being carried everywhere."

He put me down, grabbed my hand, and led me off the train. The second we walked off, we were surrounded by Peacekeepers. I tried to took through them, but it was no use. These Peacekeepers were tall and huge. I could hear people cheering, but could hardly see them.

"Jump on my back," Cato whispered to me. "You'll be able to see the district."

I smiled and quickly did just that, just bring able to see over the Peacekeepers heads. We were surrounded by cheering people who got louder when they saw me. District Two looked really nice and so did the people. Just to see their reaction, I waved at them and they went nuts!

I smiled until I saw a man standing outside a door and glaring at me, who I assumed was related to Clove. He was a good looking man, but looked like he hated everyone. Brown hair, good build and his frown where the only features I could pick up on.

"We're home," Cato said when we walked into District Two's Victor's Village. "I have no idea which it is, but one of these is home."

"Cato," I heard Melody yell, running over to us as the Peacekeepers moved. "Mom is so excited to see you and meet Katniss!"

"Well I'm excited to meet her too," I said looked down at her. "It's an honor that that your brother wanted me to meet you two!"

"Are you going to get down or do you want me to carry you inside, thought you said you wanted to walk earlier," Cato said teasingly.

"You can carry me," I smiled. "I like the view from here!"

(CATO POV)

"Mom," Melody yelling running in house. "They're here!"

I walked through the front door and my mother was standing at the bottom of the stairs. It took everything I had not to let go of Katniss and run to her. When i left, she was proud that I was going, but terrified that she would loose me.

"Hello," She smiled, walking over.

I put Katniss down, well let go and she half fell, to hug my mother. Her arms wrapped around me and I could feel my shirt get wet and she cried.

"It's ok," I said comforting her. "I'm here and alive. I made it home to you and Melody like I promised."

She pulled away and looked at Katniss, still crying. I put my hand on her shoulder and took a deep breath.

"Katniss," she said shaky. "It's wonderful to meet you."

"It's wonderful to meet you too," Katniss smiled. "Cato really wanted me to meet you and Melody."

"I owe you everything," my mother said letting out a sob. "You could have killed him instead of making sure your district mate wasn't suffering, but you didn't. You spared his life. Katniss, you are the reason I've been able to sleep the past few nights. My son was the only thing really keeping me going once my husband died. When I found out I was pregnant with Melody, I lost it. Her father was a great man-"

"I told her the truth," I said walking behind Katniss. "I mean she is my fiancé, so she deserved to know."

"Her father was still a great man," She said looking at me. "It was when he found out I was pregnant that he changed. He was horrible to me and only cared about Clove. Never once did he ask if Melody was his or your father's. Don't get me wrong Katniss, I loved Cato's father very much! Clove's father was just the only one there for me while I was grieving since Cato had just started his training a week earlier. I wouldn't change what between us for anything because I got a beautiful daughter out of it. She helped me through Cato being in the games."

"I met Clove once," Melody said holding our mom's hand. "I said she was pretty and other nice things, but she was really mean to me. I told Mom the truth and lied to you because I knew you liked her. I had no idea we were sisters until the nice after the reaping. I didn't want her to win or even make it past the Cornucopia blood bath, but I knew she would. She was with you. I'm surprised Glimmer made it to the top ten! She was all over you and I didn't like that. She was full of herself and you didn't seem to try to tell her to back off! Why didn't you tell her leave you alone and that you liked Katniss? Why did you try to kill Katniss?"

"I didn't tell her to leave me alone because I knew she would be an easy kill later on. I tried to kill Katniss because only one could come out and if I killed her then I would be numb to the death of Clove because she wasn't the real love of my life," I said looking down. "I just wanted so bad to be the one to come home to you and mom."

"What about Katniss," she asked angrily. "She has a family too! She VOLUNTEERED for her sister at the reaping! Did that not phase you at all?! She took her sister's spot so she wouldn't die at twelve! Would you have done that if I was a boy, twelve and reaped? Would you have done it to save me from that horrible fate if we were in an outlying district that the Capital doesn't really give to shits about?"

"MELODY," my mother yelled at her. "HOW DARE YOU USE THAT KIND OF LANGUAGE!"

"It's true! They starve to death out there! You can see how bone thin they are every year and some look like they're about to collapse from starvation," Melody yelling running up the stairs.

"I'm so sorry about her," my mother said, obviously embarrassed.

"It's true though," Katniss said looking down. "People starve all the time in my district. If you don't starve, you work in the mines with a chance of dying in an explosion. That's how I lost my father and met my best friend, Gale. We hunted together to keep our families alive because we both lost our fathers in the same explosion. If it wasn't for my father teaching me to hunt while he was alive, or Peeta throwing me bread when we were eleven, I wouldn't be here today. When we were in the cave and Peeta said he should have brought me the bread instead of throwing it, I wanted to say I was glad he didn't. Him throwing it made me get up and helped keep me alive. I collapsed on a tree and was just about to give up when he threw it. If not for him, I wouldn't be with Cato and he might not be alive. I don't actually believe he wouldn't have won though, because without me than he would be the lone victor and living here with you and Melody."

"Kat," I said, having her look at me. "I had no idea that Peeta was one of the reasons you're able to be in my arms. I'm so sorry."

"It's not your fault," she said hugging me. "You lived here, in a wealthy, career district. You couldn't have done anything any way."

I knew it wasn't my fault, I just felt terrible because she could have been dead before she even turned twelve. Cupping her face in my hands, I gently, yet passionately, kissed her on the lips. This kiss was different though and I could feel it. I really was falling for Katniss Everdeen.

A/N: What did you think? Still trying not to make it move too fast, but trying to move it along the same. Please give me your opinions so I can work on it and make it better!
