After mockingjay

Chapter 6

I find it strange that he's always where I am. I've always wondered why he follows us around. This kind of comes as a surprise to me. Out of all the people I never expected him to be like this. "Ummm Haymitch?" He's been scaring me lately. He's been 'watching' me. "Hey sweetheart. I guess I got lost or something."

"Haymitch, I have a question." I say because I really want to get this off me chest. "Okay what is it sweetheart?" He says. "Why have you been 'watching' us. I mean your watching us through my window and following us. And it's kind of creepy." I say.

"Oh well I just ummm. Oh look at the time I have to get ready for dinner. See you guys at 6." And he literally runs down the stairs and outside the house. "Obviously he's hiding something. Are you ready to go back?" I say. "Yeah let's go to my house. He isn't my neighbor so he can't watch us there." He says. "Okay." I say.

As we walk back I have this feeling someone's watching me. Haymitch probably, but I let the feeling slide because Haymitch can't do much harm. When we get to Peeta's house it's lunch time so I offer to make lunch.

I try to make macaroni and cheese but I burn it. Only I can burn noodles. When Peeta sees I burnt them he just starts laughing. "I uhhh guess cooking isn't my thing." I say because it's true. Peeta takes over while I set the table. I start thinking about how he's still the most kindest person I've ever met.

I mean he's been through two Hunger Games, a hijacking,rebellion, and lost all his family in the bombing and still hasn't changed himself. He's still the nicest person ever. Once he finishes making lunch we eat in silence. You'd think our silence got boring but as long as we are in each others presence we are never bored.

Once we finish eating we decide to go lay on the couch and just talk. We talk about everything. About Haymitch, Effie, Johanna, Annie, and even Gale. While we're talking about Annie's son, Fin, the phone rings. Peeta answers the phone and all the sudden starts talking in a whisper. I wonder who it is. I sneak upstairs to the other phone and pick it up to listen to their conversation. When I hear who Peeta's talking to I almost faint..
