KATNISS POV
He started to walk away when I finally worked up the nerve to ask him to stay. It came out very quietly, barely a whisper.
Peeta looked back at me, and without any direction, came and helped me up from the bathroom floor. He turned me around, my back facing him and he gently pulled my hair into a loose ponytail and then secured it. He then placed a small wet kiss on my upper neck, which sent thousands of sparks all throughout my body, almost making me shudder. I turned back around to face him, looked him in the eyes and quietly said, "Maybe Haymitch is right."
Peeta looked at me with wide eyes. He said "Right about what?"
He didn't remember? How could he forget all the times I told him about what Haymitch had said, and that Peeta deserved someone better.
He must have read my thoughts and quickly, and caught on to what I was talking about, because before I could even talk his lips were crushed onto mine, kissing me softly and gently. With each feel of his warm welcoming lips meeting mine, I felt a rising sensation coming from my core making its way up my body and ending near my heart. It was as if a fire had been started inside of me, I felt warm and cozy. I couldn't even remember the last time I had this welcoming feeling. It was a mixture of love and comfort, I never wanted it to end. In that moment I realized what it was.
It was a feeling I hadn't had in a long time.
I felt safe.
