I walked over to the elevator quickly and jammed my finger on the second floor's button. I regret this decision because as soon as the doors open I scream. Cato had his back against the wall. He was making out with Glimmer.

I couldn't see as everything became blurry and my checks became wet. I slammed the button to the ground floor. Cato would expect me to go to the roof or my floor. I heard him yell my name as the doors closed. My body was shaking while the elevator swiftly descended.

When I got down, I just speed-walked. I didn't know the layout of the building, so I ended up getting lost. Eventually I had stopped seeing people walking by me. I was relieved when I saw the back of a blond's head.

Unfortunately, it was Marvel. I walked past him hoping he didn't see me. As quick as I was, however, he saw me.

"Peeta! Wait up!" He called as he ran to catch up to me. He stopped in front of me and saw my face. My eyes were probably red and puffy. "Hey, what's wrong?"

"Like you don't know, bitch." I walked past him, trying to get away, but he grabbed my arm.

"Peeta, why are you crying? Please, tell me." He begged. I gave in and told him, but as I relayed the story my eyes watered more.

Unexpectedly, Marvel pulled me into a hug. "Hey, hey, hey, baby... don't cry. I'm so sorry for what happened. Glimmer can be such a slut sometimes, and Cato doesn't realize how lucky he was to have you." He didn't pull away for a while. I continued to cry in his arms because I didn't have the strength to pull away or stop the tears.

Eventually, I came to my senses. I pushed him off of me. "You think you're so clever, huh? You got Glimmer to seduce Cato so that you could comfort me. I'm not that dumb, so you can stop trying to ruin my relationship."

He grabbed my shoulders and picked up my chin so that we made eye contact. "Peeta..." He started. He was crying as well. "I would never want to hurt you. Seeing you like this makes me..." His voice quivered.

It sounded like he genuinely meant it, and I found myself being the one doing the comforting. I wiped away his tears and let him lead me to his bedroom.

We sat on his bed as he tried to stop crying. His eyes were puffed up and his cheeks were tear stained, like mine were ten minutes ago.

"Thanks, Peeta." He said softly.

As I sat there stroking Marvel's back, I wondered more about why Cato would be kissing Glimmer. I suspected something like this could happen, I guess I never really trusted Cato. It was hard to trust someone when your mentor and ally were calling them a fake and a liar.

I didn't realize that I had hugged Marvel into me. He is such a cry baby. I thought to myself with a smile.

"Marvel, it's okay. I'm really sorry."

"I know, Peeta. I'm just... I can't believe anyone would do that to you."

"Well," I started as I stoop up, "let's get out of here." I grabbed his hand an pulled him up.

"Where are we going?" He asked.

I wiped his tears as I answered, "It's a surprise."

Hand-in-hand, I led him to the roof. He was bewildered that this building even had a roof, but I could tell he liked it.

We stood there with locked fingers watching the sky. Or at least, I stood there watching the sky. I looked over to Marvel, and he was smiling at me. He had stopped crying, and was watching me.

"What's on your mind?" I asked.

"I'm just thinking about you. How cute you are." His words made me blush. "I wish you were mine. I would kill to have a boyfriend like you."

"Marvel," I looked down at the floor, "you're sweet. I would love to have a boyfriend like you too... It's just I still haven't talked things out with Cato yet. I don't want to lead you on right now or anything."

He let go of my hand. "Peeta, please. You have to see what he's doing." He pleaded. I looked up at him as he continued. "He played you, just like he played Glimmer. During the first day of training, Cato came into our suite afterwards. He was angry about not getting what he wanted. He started to make out with Glimmer."

"What!" I screamed. "No! That can't be true!"

"Peet, I'm sorry."

My eyes shut tight, not to let the tears out. Marvel hugged me very gently.

"Marvel... thanks." I whispered.

I looked at him. He was studying my face with a concerned look in his eye. I leaned in forward as he did the same. We made lip contact for a brief second. When I pulled back I stared into his eyes. He was a bundle of emotions, just as I was. He grabbed my shirt and pulled me against him, gently. We kissed again, this time with more passion. He was different than Cato. He was softer and let me lead.

I don't know how long we were up there kissing. We both needed it, at the time. Marvel and I were snapped out of our little dream world when we heard a yell.

"What the fuck is going on here!" I heard. I immediately recognized the voice. Before looking at the sound I looked up at Marvel, who was looking back. He was scared.

I reluctantly look back to the source of the noise. It was Cato.

"I said, what the fuck do you both think you're fucking doing up here?!" He stormed over towards us and pushed us apart.

"Cato I can explain!" I told him. He wouldn't look at me.

"Save it, Peeta."

I got a bit annoyed at his anger as I remembered what Marvel told me only minutes before. "Fuck you, Cato!"

He turned to me, but I didn't see anger as I thought I would.

"Peeta... how could you...?" He glared at Marvel and left before I could say anything.

I ran after him, but Marvel stopped me. "Peeta, no! Stay with me."

"Marvel, I can't. I have to talk to Cato. I have to explain."

"Explain what?" He asked. "That this was an accident? That this was a one time thing? That I don't mean as much to you as he does?"

I couldn't respond to that, so I just watched him as he stormed off as well. I started to cry alone on the roof. Eventually, I stopped. Tears don't solve anything.

I went down to my floor and knocked on Katniss's door.

She opened up and saw me with all of my tears. She pulled me in and sat me down. "Peeta," she asked, "what's wrong?"

"Katniss... I messed shit up."
