The Next Day....
(This song kind of goes with THG and Also Divergent too since its there and I love this song.)
Katniss' POV

Fear. That's what I felt when he kissed me last night. I'm just scared right now. His  kisses are like magic but he should get someone else and not me. I don't deserve him since I'm selfish, mean, evil, and stubborn. And I don't want to bother him because of my nightmares. I don't even know what's real anymore. Peeta needs someone better. I got out of bed and brush my teeth. Prim greets me a good morning and I respond with a sad look. "What's wrong," she asks me. "Nothing," I replied. "Why do you care?" "Just asking," she tells me. And we ate the rest of our breakfast in silence. I just want to know why Peeta kissed me. What does he want? And why? I wonder how he feels right now. So, I decided to text. What? Can a girl text a guy?

Me: Hi Peeta

Few minutes passed. Hours. Why isn't he answering? I need to know what he's doing and how he is. "You love him," Prim says while interupting my thoughts. "What?" I ask her. "You love him," she repeats. "What, no way i just feel something when I'm around him that makes me so addicted." "Yeah, that's love," Prim says. "Sure," I answer her in a sarcastic tone. I left her to take my morning jog. I still need that exercise. I weigh too much even though I'm super skinny with a butt. I grabbed my water bottle, cell phone, headphones, and sneakers and headed out. I don't know, I need something to get rid of this stress. I ran to the park, so focused, so full of energy that I looked down and bumped into someone again. Why do I keep doing that? "Hey," The voice said until I realized it was Peeta's voice. What do I say? I'm scared. Really scared. "Hi," I say back with a sad, scared tone. "What are you doing here?" "Umm..." he starts, struggling to find words. "I'm here to exercise then needed to look for you. But since you're here now..... I need to talk to you about last night." "Yeah.... last night....." I start. "Look, I kissed you because you mean something to me. You make my day, so much brighter and I can't thank you enough. I may be new here and not have a lot of friends but you're too important that I don't care about anyone else. You're like my sunshine on a cloudy day. It's not easy for me to tell you all of this but I love you. I loved you since I first met you and I always thought that you were the one I love cause you're so different, so perfect, so pure and natural that not even the perfect and natural views can compare. I need you, I'll fight for you, and defend you everywhere you need me, even to Mars. You know that I'm your king, and you're my queen. I don't care about you because of the outside, I care about you of what's inside you and your true, innerself. All this time, I wanted to know more about you and actually spend more time with you. When you're sad, I'll be there to hold your hand, and whenSo, I wanted to give you something." He pulls out a black box and pulls out a necklace that says my name in beautiful writing: Katniss Everdeen. It was the most precious gift I've ever seen in my life. I never got a gift so special. I start crying again, wrapping my arms around sweet, loving Peeta. "Aww Peeta," I start, still crying. "I love you too baby and thank you so much for that beautiful speech and I never got those loving comments so again, thank you." "So, there's one more thing I need to ask you," He starts. "Oh yeah... and what's that?" "Will you go out with me," he asks me with bending down on one knee. I say the answer with no regrets, "Yes."
