Authors Notes: Oh my gosh, thank you all! I love reading your reviews, I really appreciate them! Thanks for taking the time to read and review, I hope you like this chapter. Don't own the Hunger Games, if I did there would be a lot of Peeta being shirtless ;)

At first it was chaste and tentative. We were still, taking it all in, like we didn't want to forget this moment. All to soon it grew passionate and hungry. All other thoughts were out of my brain, and I couldn't care less. All that mattered was Peeta. Those butterflies were in my stomach again, so was something else. A hunger that I never felt before, it was amazing. I couldn't get enough with Peeta, and I didn't mind. It was the best feeling. I felt alive and thrilled, I didn't want this feeling to stop, but all to soon it did.

After we parted, we looked at each other. I could feel myself get as red as a tomato, Peeta was just as red as I was. I looked at the clock and saw that we were at it for a good hour. My mom would be home soon, any minute now. If she came in and saw that… it wouldn't end well… for anyone. Peeta also noticed it got late and sighed.

"I-um- ah better get going. My dad will be wondering where I am." Peeta explained and I nodded, better he not be here when my mom gets home. I walk him to the door, and after a moment of hesitation he gave me a small kiss before leaving. After the door closed, I let out a sigh and rested against the door.

For the rest of the day the blonde hair, blue eyed, baker was stuck in my thoughts. He occupied my brain during dinner, while I read to Prim, even when I was helping mother with the dished. I couldn't get away from my thoughts. I kept replaying the way this body felt against mine, light softness of his lips, the hunger in my stomach. It was the greatest thing I've ever experienced. I know I don't have a lot of experience kissing, but I know Peeta is good at it. Even at night it took me forever to fall asleep because Peeta invaded my thoughts.

How will he act tomorrow? He'll probably not want to talk about it. Should I bring it up, or let him? Should I tell Madge? Ugh, I'm so confused…

As I walked into school the next day, I could feel the eyes on me. Some were hateful, some were jealousy. Others were of pity and occasionally lustful. I hate attention, I hated this. Something ,though, was causing me the keep my cool.

Peeta.

He was the reason why I didn't punch every bitch that whispered about me. In the hallway our eyes met and his were full of understanding and compassion. I felt the damn butterflies again when our eyes met but I walked right past him. I didn't even stop when a furious Glimmer looked at me. I walked head tall and unfazed by their stares. I entered the bathroom and took notice to the tan brunette at the skin. She saw me come in and gave me a smile.

"Your Katniss right?" She asked. Great, now people know my name.

"Yeah, and whatever you heard about me isn't true." I told her before she could ask.

"Really? You mean you didn't push Glimmer into mud? I was kind of hoping that one was true." She joked and I smiled.

"No, but no since I have the idea maybe…" I looked off with a mock thinking expression and she gave a light laugh.

"Tell me a head of time; I'll help," She stated and turned toward me fully. "All though I can relate. You know Clove," She asked and I nodded. "Well last year she spread this rumor that I stole Marvel from her and I slept with him and all this shit. Which is totally untrue because, I'm this Finnick, and I love him to the end of time. I would never cheat on him. And he would never cheat on me because if he did, he wouldn't be as manly as he is now." She stated and I laughed. So this is the infamous Annie, people always say she's a slut, but she seems pretty decent.

"While I hope you never have to de-man him." I play along.

"Thank you, me neither. You should sit with us at lunch today." Annie suggested, I though for a minute before declining.

"I don't think so, I sit with Gale and Madge, and I don't think there's enough room for them.

"Alright, be stubborn, I'll sit with you. Finnick and I will sit with you; I could probably get Delly and Foxface to come with us. Maybe even Peeta; if Finnick begs enough." Annie planned and I laughed softly.

"Alright, you come up with the seating chart and tell me latter." I say as the homeroom bell rang. Annie and I parted ways, I made my to homeroom which I had with Peeta, Glimmer, Madge and Gale. Fun. I walked in and all eyes were on me. Haymitch, our drunken teacher was asleep at his desk. I took the only seat left; of course it was next to Peeta, the universe must hate me. I slid in quietly just as a thought hit me.

Peeta has a girlfriend. And we made out. Maybe he wasn't as nice as I thought. T was overwhelmed with guilt as Madge turned around and looked at me. I hated cheaters, hated them. How could I let this happen? Oh crap, Madge was talking.

"I asked if you could come over after school; we need to talk and have girl time." Madge stated after I asked her to repeat herself. I forced and smile and nodded. Gale turned towards me slightly to cast a death glare my way. Again, I feel like I betrayed him. I need to sort something's out.

"I think we should talk." Peeta said quietly. I turned slightly his way and looked at him, he looked as guilty as I felt.

"Not now." I respond dryly. Peeta nodded then shifted forward. The tension in this room was palpable.

After the bell rang I dashed out of the room but not before he called my name. I slowed down a tad, but it was enough for him to grab my elbow. I turned towards him but my gaze was still on the ground.

"Look I now that what I did was wrong, I have to right to kiss you; I even have a girlfriend, I don't know what came over me," The sincerity in his word over took me and I slowly drifted my gaze up to his breathtaking eyes. I knew it. As soon as I looked in his eyes my resolve broke. He looked so guilty and innocent, but the way he was last night was far beyond innocent. "I hate cheaters, I don't know what I was thinking. I just can't control myself around you." Peeta admitted and I was totally gone from any anger I had left.

"I know- I get it. It's like you don't think, you just act." I put my two cents in.

"Yeah, it just kind of happened. I know I must seem like a jerk to you, I do care about Glimmer; it's just around you I lose and sense of self-control."

"I think it's best if we put it behind us, don't let it ruin our friendship. I can't happen again when you have a girlfriend." I reason with myself. For some unknown reason, I can't think of my life without Peeta. I meant him such a short time ago and he's already made such an impact. A somewhat sadden Peeta nods then goes to his class and I go to mine. Castling one last look at Peeta; just in time to see him do the same for me. One thing was for sure, I needed to figure out what I want.

Authors Note: I know it's not very good but I just wanted to put something up, I felt bad for not updating sooner! Don't worry; there will be more Peeta and Katniss. Sorry for not updating sooner. The next chapter will be longer and 5 times better!
