Katniss POV- Date Part 2

As we were driving away from the restaurant, all I could think about was the magical kiss Peeta and I had just shared. Not just the kiss itself, but the fact that it was my first kiss. Yes, I'm 17 and I just had my first kiss, big deal. I'm not one of those bitches who go around sucking faces with different guys everyday. I was so overwhelmed with my thoughts, that I hadn't noticed the car stopping. I heard Peeta's door open and close, followed by my door being opened. A hand pulled me out and wrested itself on my shoulder, while the other closed the door. I felt sand brushing up against my ankles.

Why are we at the beach dressed like this? I questioned myself.

I heard Peeta grab something from the car, and we headed down the beach to who knows where. "Peeta?" I asked, "why are at beach wearing fancy clothes?"

Chuckling, Peeta said, "Don't worry, I've got it all covered."

After a few minutes, I heard a door creak open and my blind fold was taken off. I quickly took in my surroundings and found myself in a bathroom.

I twirled around, facing Peeta with a confused look, but Peeta just laughed. "Here", he said, tossing me a bag, "change into those, and meet me by the water."

Peeta left, and I curiously peeked in the bag. I found a towel, a brush and a bikini...Annie's bikini.

"Oh god." I muttered to myself, "This can not be good."

I speedily changed into the aqua blue tinted bikini with a white bow, noticing instantly how revealing it was. It showed too much of my cleavage in my opinion. Shoulders sagged in embarrassment, I exited the room and headed in Peeta's direction. I instinctively took in Peeta's torso immediately. It was nicely tanned ad had an amazing six-pack. I immediately found my self getting even more attracted to the blonde boy.

I continued walking to him, never letting my eyes leave his body. Peeta was wearing a pair of sunset orange swim trunks. Letting my eyes, finally wonder off to his face, I found his eyes also giving me a look over, and beholding quite a smirk. Putting my hands on my hips, I coughed, gaining his attention, as well as receiving a blush. "Never, and I mean never again, let Annie pack my swimsuit." I stated seriously.

"Why?" Peeta questioned, receiving a look from me. "You look good."

I just waved him off, "So are you going to tell me why we are here when it's this dark out?"

Peeta smiled and said, "How about I just show?"

Confusion appeared on my face, but was wiped away not two seconds later, when Peeta grabbed me around the waist, and threw me over his shoulder.

"Peeta!" I screamed, pounding my fists against his back, "Put me down!"

"As you wish Katniss."

I immediately wish those three words had never left my mouth and I was clinging to Peeta for dear life, but he just dropped me and I landed in the freezing cold water. Thankfully, I was a good swimmer, and cold hold my breath for long periods of time, so I was going to get revenge.I floated to the bottom of the water, and held my breath. After a couple minutes, I saw his feet rushing towards me and just as he was about to bend down, I kicked his legs out from underneath, sending him tumbling down to the water to join me. I shot up out of the water, and waded away from him. Peeta's head appeared above the water, and he searched desperately for me, how cute. Eventually finding me ten feet away from him, he smiled and ducked under the water once again. I saw the surface of the water ripple here and there, and then I felt something brush against my skin from underneath. Startled I tripped backwards and fell in to the water once again. I saw Peeta smile at me beneath the water, and he swam closer, grabbing my face, and straight out kissing me. It was an amazing underwater kiss, but we eventually had to break away and swim to the surface for air.

"Never scare me like that again Katniss. You had me worried there." Peeta stated, looking in to my eyes.

"I'll have you know Peeta, that I can hold my breath for a total of nine and a half minutes under water, and that was payback for dropping me in the water." I smirked with my hands on my hips.

Peeta said nothing and slowly came forward, inch by inch, while just stood there wondering what he was planning.

"And this is my revenge." Peeta whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine. He brought his face back, cupped my cheeks and looked into my eyes. Unconsciously, we both started leaning in and our lips met. It started out slow, but then got more passionate by the second. Peeta wrapped his arms around my waist, tugging me closer against his soaking, toned chest, while I wrapped mine around his neck, fingers wringing through his hair. After a couple minutes, we both pulled back and deeply stared into the other's eyes.

Peeta took a long breath and asked me, "Katniss Everdeen, will you be my girlfriend?"

I sighed happily and replied, "Yes, Peeta Mellark, I will be your girlfriend." He smiled and was about to kiss me again, but I pushed him back into the water and laughed at the look of surprise that was registered on his face. He came back up and pushed me back, but not before I Grabbed his arm and pulled him with me.

The next hour, we spent splashing each other, kissing, pushing each other, kissing, swimming , and oh yeah, did I mention kissing?

Once we got back to the school, Peeta walked me to my dorm, and gave me a quick kiss before I went inside.

"Goodnight beautiful." Peeta said.

"Goodnight handsome." I replied smiling.

I closed the door, facing Madge, Annie, Clove, Glimmer, and Johanna, knowing what was coming next, and leaned up against the door, sliding down and sitting on the ground smiling.

Peeta Mellark is my boyfriend.
