It's been a few weeks since I went on my first date with Peeta. Its been a fun and weird the last few weeks, I haven't told my parents about him so when I go on a date with him I would tell them I was at the library studying. It's the first time I have lied to them, but I don't want them to find out about Peeta just yet.
Right now Peeta and I are sitting near a hidden path at the local park behind a big tree. Has hands cupping my face as our lips movie against one another. He pulls away and looks into my eyes.
"I enjoy this." he whispers then start kissing me again. His and hands sinks down to my waist . And I put my arms around his neck. His hands start inching up under my shirt before he can touch my chest. The sound of my phone breaks us apart right away. When I look I see it's a text from my Dad ask if I could help out the store . I quickly text him back saying I be there soon .
"I need to go," I tell Peeta and stand up pulling my shirt down and brush out my hair out with my hand cause it's a mess from Peeta's hands. "My dad needs help at the store."
Peeta stands up and runs his hand through his hair. "Okay," he says. "At least let me take you there". I nod yes and we head back to his bike.
He drops me of a half a mile from my dad's store. I give him a gentle kiss and whisper goodbye to him before I start walking.
XXXXXXX
My dad needs my help out in the store because one of his employees wife went in to labour. So my dad needs me to cover for that employee.
I sigh and finish placing items on the shelf. "Hey Catnip." I hear someone who I haven't heard from in forever. I turn around and see my cousin Gale .
I walk over to him and give him a hug. He was in college but he decide to join the air forces so he switched to the air forces academy.
We sit in the break room and eat a lunch that he brought. We catch up as we have seen one another for a year and a half as he was away for the Air forces Academy.
" So anything new " he asks
I look down and start to play with my food . " no , nothing is new. " I tell him.
he looks at me with look he always gave me when we were younger .Where he would ask about kids at school then I would lay to him . Then he would get the truth out me . Then beat the shit out of the kids who was given me trouble .
" Katniss " he says . I knew he would see pass my lay like he aways has .
I sigh " fine " I try to think the best way to tell Gale about Peeta.
" I met someone" I mumble . He looks at me with concern in his face .
" what do you mean " he asks.
" I mean I start dating someone " I bluer out. We I look at gale he looks like he's about to explode ." Before you say anything . I can take care of myself " I say .
Gale sigh and runs his hand through his hair . " I know but it just ..." he sighs " I don't know what to say but just be careful" .
I nod my head " I know " I say
" have you told your parents ? " he asks .
" no " I say . He doesn't say away thing. We sit in silence for the rest of my lunch brake . He hugs me for he heads home .
" See you soon Katniss stay safe " he says .
" okay , see you soon " I tell him.
Later that night
The sound of my phone wakes me up in the middle of the night . Before I answer my phone I look at my alarm clock and see it two in the morning .
" Hello" I say as answer my phone .
" Katniss " I hear a voice that sounds like Peeta's .
" Peeta " I ask
" yes" he says
" why are you calling me at one in the morning" I say .
" Cause I need to hear your voice" he says .
" are you okay we have school in the morning" I tell him.
" I'm fine , I'm fine . I just want to let you know I love you" he says .
I don't say anything I just sit there and think .
" peeta .." I start but the line goes died . I look at my phone and see that he hanged up . I put phone back on nightstand and go back to sleep .
