Mystery Voice
by BreadBoy
This story is not connected to Fire Daisies or Panem High.
The songs in this story are not really sung or written by Katniss, but just let it go. She writes them in this story.
Katniss's POV
The voice was so friendly. So familiar. Yet it made me want to cry.
I stood in place and stayed silent. The figure rushed towards me.
Peeta.
I wanted to punch him; shove him away. I wanted to slap his face and tell him to get lost.
Peeta wasn't Cato.
But nothing worked. He engulfed me in his arms silently, under the safety of the umbrella. I clawed pathetically at his shirt. The tears came streaming down my face, and I hoped he would mistake them for rain. But he didn't. He wiped them away with his thumbs.
"Damn you, Peeta," I whispered shakily, my voice failing from my heaving sobs. I buried my head into the crook of his neck. I gave up. Might as well get a piece of Peeta when I could.
"Why are you here?" Peeta mumbled into my hair.
I hesitated.
"Cato was supposed to meet me here." I muttered.
"He was supposed to meet you here yesterday." Peeta corrected.
"No," I lifted my head up to look into his blue orbs. "Knife Girl told me to meet him today."
Peeta's expression turned stony. He muttered stuff under his breath that I couldn't hear.
Something was up.
Peeta's POV
I wasn't going to toy with Katniss's feelings with Clove.
So when I told her I wasn't going to ruin their dates, I didn't know she'd carry on alone.
But she did.
What do you think happened?
Sorry for the short chapter.
Judging by last chapter's reviews, everyone thought Peeta was with Clove.
Is he?
