A/N: Sorry this chapter took so long to write, I have end of year exams coming up so I have been revising and been do this in my breaks. I hope you like it because this is the end of this fanfic.

Katniss POV:

Relief flooded through me and for the first time since that kiss I thought we could be okay, we could be happy together and just move on.

"Katniss, of course I will always love you. How could I stop loving you when I thought you were the one for me from the age of five? But I can't ever trust you again I don't think, I can't be with the girl I don't trust. Love sometimes isn't enough." I don't know what to say, this isn't the Peeta I know. I get to properly look at him and he is like me, he looks older. The bags under his eyes must mean he has lost sleep over this and his blue eyes have gone icy and cold.

"Since when did you ever say love wasn't enough? You told me love was everything."

"Katniss, do you really think I would view things the same after this. Love is amazing yes, looking at you now I have explosions inside of me. But love is also the stupidest and most gullible thing. Katniss I have fallen for you and you didn't catch me so I don't trust you, and I won't again." I am at a loss for words. How can he say this if he heard me last night and this morning?

"Did you even watch my interviews? Or do you not care about what I said last night."

"I couldn't watch you lie about your feelings to the whole country after you have lied to my face for two years; if you can lie that easily then I will probably let you trick me into loving me again." He didn't watch he doesn't know how much I care.

"It was easy because it was the truth, why would I lie?" He must believe me, he has to. "Would you at least come to my house, the person showing me around said that I could get up any programs whenever I wanted to, you could see what I said."

"I don't see what good it would do but fine. Happy?" I don't answer I just lead him back the way I came sit him on the sofa and then put it on, I leave the room because I can't watch it again. I have told him how to skip through the bits that don't apply to this. After what seems like forever he comes back out. He seems shocked; he doesn't talk to me he just walks out. I follow him out the door but he is already streaking away and I know that there is no point following him, he mustn't care enough to explain to me. So I just stand there in the doorway of my new house and watch him leave me behind.

Peeta POV:

I am so confused that I don't know what to do; I have to get away now. I think I am just in complete shock, in my mind I have always wanted to marry her but I never thought the first time she would say it I wouldn't even bother to listen to her. I never thought she would say that after she had just kissed someone else, but I never thought she would kiss someone else. She shouldn't have said it like that though, I knew how that would be said, in four years time when we were both twenty I would take her to the meadow where I would have some cheese buns laid out because I know they were her favourite and then when she had eaten that I would tell her each and every reason why I love her finally I would lower myself onto one knee and ask her to marry me. I know it's cheesy but who cares isn't being in love pretty cheesy anyway. I guess most sixteen year olds don't think about how they will propose to their girlfriend but I used to think I was lucky right now I'm not so sure.

Then it homes in on me, I can feel that glowing feeling I get just thinking about her but I left her without another word. She knows I just heard her say she wants to spend the rest of her life with me and I left her stood there. I knew she had attempted to follow me outside the house which is why I ran and now it is dark and I can't go back to her; she is with her family and I can't stop her reunion with them. So I trudge my way back to my house angry with the fact I have been so selfish, so stupid.

Immediately my mother grabs my arm, my father in her tow and leads me through the town.

"We need to have a serious talk with the Everdeen's." Over the past few weeks she has been warmer to me, not kind as such but not as ferocious. She beat me less and even though I will never trust her I started to believe she was changing. "You and that Seam girl are ending this today. I was fine to pretend it didn't matter when I thought she was going to die. I thought it would teach you a lesson, she was no good for you and I thought you would realise that but clearly you are as stupid as your father." Behind her I caught my father's eye and he raised his eyebrows and smirked. "This ends today Peeta." Then she marched me to Victors Village and knocked on the house that had lights on.

Half of Prim's head peaked around the door and from behind her I heard Katniss ask who it was.

"It's the Mellarks" Prim called over her shoulder. I looked to my mother and saw her face had contorted into her fake smile and she used the sweetest voice she possessed and said,

"Hello Primrose, could we please come in?" it was a voice of such sweetness that I expect syrup to pour from her mouth.

"Of course Mrs Mellark," Prim gives us a smile that I have seen so often, she gives them out to everyone because she is genuinely kind; unlike my mother.

"Oh Primrose call me Caron (She doesn't have a name so I made one up)." My mother flashes one last smile before going in. I let my father in before me and then I followed him up. I am stood in awe of how grand this house is, she has everything she need and more. When I followed Prim into the living room I saw Katniss at the table, I assumed she would have been overjoyed to see her family seeing as she hasn't seen them for weeks but her face is blotchy and eyes slightly swollen.

"Hello Mrs Mellark, I don't mean to be rude but this is an emotional day for us, although I would love to speak to you, now is not the time." This is the first time I have heard Miss Everdeen speak; I have only met her once when I came to see Katniss as a 'friend' and she just sat in the kitchen staring out the window. I said hello to her but she seemed not to notice I was there, Katniss later told me she has some kind of depression and hasn't spoken properly since her father died.

"I understand, but this issue is urgent. My son is far too young to be dating some girl." She waved her hand dismissively towards Katniss, looking down her nose to her.

"My daughter has a name, not only that but she has just survived death, she is by no means some girl so I would appreciate you being polite."

"Katniss is no longer permitted to see my son."

"I agree that she is too young to have a boyfriend but they can see each other with supervision." Katniss' mother had risen out her chair now and my mother had never sat down.

"You wouldn't offer any supervision because you are so depressed that you can barely care for your children." My mother had clearly hit a nerve and you could see Caron's eyes cloud over.

"How dare talk to my mother that way." It was Katniss this time that spoke to my mother, Katniss had always been angry with her mother for this, but to hear someone else say it must have pushed her too far.

"Young lady I will talk to her however I want." I saw Katniss' eyebrows rise and before she said something she would regret I butted in,

"Mum, we are guests in this house so you have to remain polite. Do not speak to Katniss like that." I moved around the table so I stood next to Katniss and did the only thing I could do now to show her that I do truly regret saying I don't trust her and I let my fingers slowly become entwined with hers and felt heat radiate just from the touch of her fingers.

"Katniss is just a seam girl so I will talk to her however I like. You however will not speak to her again if I have my way."

"Get out," my voice hisses through my teeth.

"Pardon," My mother says clearly astounded by my talking back to her.

"He said get out and if you don't I will show you exactly how I got an eleven in training." My mother's eyes flash temporarily with fear before looking even angrier.

"I see I am not going to be able to reason with you, I will have to deal with Peeta myself, we are leaving Peeta and I suggest you drop that girls hand and come with us or so help me I will not let you in my house again." My mother glared straight at me but before I could reply my father stepped forward who I had forgotten was here and said,

"If you don't let him in I will take all of our sons and bring them here. I will never let you see them again." I was so shocked that I didn't see my mother leave and my father walked up to me and said "don't let her go like I let her mother go." He awkwardly patted me on the back and then left. I stared after him for a while until I was brought back to my sense by Katniss.

"Peeta can we talk outside," I nod in response and even though the air is cold it is better than having to discuss this any further in front of Katniss' mum.

"Do you understand?" That is all she says.

"I think I can learn to trust you again but you have to promise me not to kiss anyone else out of pity," I smile and she laughs. The laugh I have dreamed of since she left. Without her saying anything in reply I lower my lips to her and let that warm feeling flood through me as her lips are against mine and that feeling of security has finally returned. I said to Katniss always and I am just waiting to prove to her that when it comes to us, always will last forever.
