PLEASE REVIEW! that is all i have to say.

Chapter 26 – Peeta's POV

"Peeta, I don't wanna be sick!" Katniss jumped out of bed and walked around a little. To be honest, I don't think she feels that well. "See, I'm fine." She dropped to her knees.

"Katniss!" I caught her and she moaned. "How long have you felt like this?"

"It started yesterday. I have been so cold lately but I didn't think that I was sick or anything."

"Katniss, lay down. You need to rest." I laid her back down on her bed. "Listen to me Katniss."

She moaned again. "What do you want?"

"You have the flu."

"When will I be better?"

"If you rest, probably by Sunday."

"Two days? I can't stay in bed that long!"

"Well, if you would have gotten the flu shot, you may not have to stay in bed!"

"I meant to." Her voice was quiet. I kissed her forehead. She smiled. I kissed her on the temple, then the cheek. "Stop. Just kiss me already." Her voice had weakened.

"Katniss I want you to-" Her lips met mine. It was a short, yet long awaited kiss. "I want you to rest now."

"Please stay with me, Peeta."

"I'm going to run to the store to get some flu medicine."

"Fine, hurry up though. And get Prim from Rory's house, please."

"Okay." I kissed her on the cheek. "Love ya."

"Love you too." She coughed as a I went downstairs. I got into my car and drove to the store. When I got out of my car, I saw Haymitch. I ducked under my car, but it was too late.

"Peeta!" He ran over to me. "What the hell are you doing?"

"I'm, uh, checking the tire pressure. Yep, it's good."

"I know you were hiding from me."

"Okay." I stood up.

"What brings you here? Run out of condoms?"

"No!" I lowered my voice. "Katniss has the flu and I need to get medicine for her."

"Well, come in with me. I am out of beer."

After I got the medicine, I drove to pick up Prim. I knocked on the door. Gale answered. "What do you want?"

"I'm here to pick up Prim." He let me in.

"She's in the kitchen."

I walked through the living room and into the kitchen. "Prim, I'm here to pick you-oh my God!" Rory had his arms around her waist and his lips on hers. Her fingers were in his hair, similar to what Katniss does to me. "Prim!" She didn't listen. I went up to them and pulled them apart.

"Sorry, but you need to go home."

"Peeta, can't I stay for a little longer?"

"I would say yes, but we have to go. Now."

She sighed. "By Rory."

"Bye, Prim. See you tomorrow." He smiled and kissed her on the hand. Prim giggled. She was like the exact opposite of Katniss.

"Bye!" I said as I lead Prim out the door.

"What's wrong with you?" She asked me in the car.

"I'm sorry. I should have let you two finish. But you are still only thirteen."

She mumbled, "And you're seventeen and you've had sex already."

"I heard that. Unless you want me to tell your sister what happened, then you should."

"Where is Katniss?"

"She's home resting."

"Is she okay?"

"Yeah, she has the flu."

"Oh my goodness, I told her to get the shot!"

"Did you?"

"My mom made me. I hate needles though."

"Well, at least I can let you see her now."

When we got home, Prim ran upstairs into Katniss's room. I came in after her. "Thank you Peeta." Katniss smiled. "Prim, did you have a good time?"

"Yes. I did." She was very quick to answer.

"Oh my, what happened? Don't say nothing because you're way too happy."

"Katniss, don't be mad."

"What happened?"

"Rory kissed me." As Prim said it, Katniss's eyes widened.

I added under my breath, "A lot."

"Prim, did he kiss you on the cheek, or-" Prim covered her sister's mouth. She took her hand off and buried her head in a pillow. A sound came out, but it was too muffled to understand. "What was that?"

She looked up at Katniss. "Peeta, just tell her."

I didn't object. "They were making out. I didn't see any tongues though."

"Prim!"

"I knew she would be mad at me!"

"Prim, I'm not mad! I actually applaud you. It took me three more years than it did you to actually kiss a boy, at least one that I wanted to kiss. I'm not counting Gale." Prim smiled a little and hugged Katniss.

"Thank you for not getting angry."

"Go get dinner."

"Actually, I'll just call for some pizza." I said. "Would you like me to make you some soup?"

"Yes please." I turned to walk out. "You should be proud of me. I stayed in bed the whole time except for when I had to pee."

"Thanks for sharing."

"Don't mention it!"

"I won't!"

After dinner, I bundled Katniss up in two big blankets and carried her to the living room. I had set up a makeshift bed with couch cushions. "What is all this for?"

"We are going to watch a movie tonight." I kissed her, deeper than earlier, but not by much. "I'm in the mood for a Disney movie. Got any of those?"

"Yeah. I think we have a few." I went to their DVD bin and found a few. I held them up so Katniss could see. "Just pick one." I put all back but one. It was Cinderella.

By the time the movie was halfway over, Katniss had fallen asleep. She was lying across my lap with a throw pillow under her head. I slowly inched out of that position and picked her up, careful not to wake her. I carry her upstairs to her room and lay her in her bed. Then I took a pillow and another blanket and slept on the floor. My dreams were filled with Katniss, but were disturbed by some coughing. "Peeta! Water!" I ran down to the kitchen and filled a water bottle. I ran back upstairs and handed it to the couching Katniss. She took a few gulps and stopped coughing. "Thanks. Sorry I woke you up."

"It's fine." We both went back to sleep.
