Stay with me? Forever or Never?(hunger games fourth book)

Chapter 20

i would have updated earlier but i was really busy and i just didn't feel like writing. Anyway here's chapter 20.

"Katniss." I hear a soft voice whisper.

"Katniss, honey wake up." Someone else says. Someone shakes my shoulder and my eyes flutter open. My mothers face is right in front of me and Prim is behind her.

"what time is it?" I ask. Mom glances down at her watch.

"8:23 am." she answers. I lift my head up off the side of Peeta's bed and notice i drooled a bit. Peeta's been in a coma for five days now and I haven't moved other than to go to the washroom and get something to eat.

"Katniss I think it's time you go home and get cleaned up, and maybe check up on Haymitch to make sure he hasn't died yet." Prim says softly. I shake my head no. Prim sighs. "please Katniss." she pleads. I shake my head no again.

"why not?" mom asks.

"I can't just leave him here alone." I say looking in Peeta's direction.

"Katniss he wont be alone. mum and I will be here and we wont let anything happen to him." Prim says.

"she's right Katniss. please go clean your self up, go visit Haymitch then come back here." Mum pleads just like Prim.

"I guess your right. I'll be back later." I say and mum kisses my forehead. Before I walk out the door Prim hugs me goodbye. It's going to be awhile till I get back here considering I have to go all the way back to District 12. I start to sprint because I want to be back here as fast as I can get back here. When I get to the train station I get on the train. I go straight to the diner. I sit near the back and let my head fall on the table. Closing my eyes tears start to flow out. What if Peeta doesn't wake up from his coma? What if he dies? My life would be over, the only people I would have left would be mum and Prim.

Speaking of mum, I'm glad she has become more of a parent these past few years. I think what made her different was the hospital to keep her busy and Prim and me still with her. She seems more happy and actually smiles sometimes.

"Katniss?" I lift my head up and see Mell and Chloe.

"Mell? Chloe? what are you doing here?" I ask.

"we were on our way to District 12 to see if you were there but here you are." Mell answers.

"oh well I was actually on my way there. why don't you sit down." I offer. They smile and sit down across from me. "where's Maya and Mia?"

"they are still in District 5 with their family. They haven't seen them in a few years." Chloe says.

"oh, why are you guys not with your families?"

"we see our families every week and they know we travel through the Districts a lot." says Mell.

"why do you travel a lot?'

"we are like messengers, someone gives us a message, a place and person it goes to, then we go and deliver the message." Mell beams.

"then when the message is delivered we stay in that District till we get another message." Chloe adds.

"oh so are you two the only messengers or are there more?"

"it's just us and two others."

"who are the two others then?" I ask. Mell and Chloe laugh.

"Maya and Mia, of course. that's why they were with us and why we are all friends now." Chloe says. I nod and we talk for a bit longer and when they bring up Peeta I burst into tears. They hug me and try to calm me down. Eventually my breathing slows down and I fall asleep.

Katniss' dream

"NOOO!" I scream. His heart monitor goes to a still 'beep' and I burst out into tears. I hug him for so long and when I finally realize him I run and get a knife. I get back to his room and lay beside him. I whisper my last goodbye and shove the knife at my heart. I start to see a bright light and him at the end of it. I slowly start to make my way toward him as I let out my last breath.

"Katniss!"

"Katniss!"

"Katniss!"

"huh?" I ask as my eyes open. I see that Mell and Chloe are still on either side of me.

"we'll be in District 12 in less than a minute." Mell says.

"how long was I asleep?"

"about twenty-five minutes." Chloe answers. I nod and the train comes to a stop.

"I hope we can meet again." I say standing up. Chloe and Mell stand up too and give me a hug.

"yeah, I hope we can." Mell says. I smile and wave goodbye walking away toward the door.

"bye!" They call after me. Not many people glare at me this time. I wonder what news was broad casted this time? I walk off the train and sprint toward the Victors Village. When I burst through the front door I run upstairs and grab some clothes and head into the bathroom. I have a quick shower and braid my hair again without brushing it. I go back out into the bedroom and grab a bag from the closet. I start ripping clothes out from the closet without looking at what they are. Once the bag is full I zip it up and dash down the stairs and out the door. I am about to go back to the train station when I remember that Haymitch said he needed to get something. I turn around and run to his house. The door is wide open and I walk in.

"Haymitch!" I call. I don't want to be long so I call his name a few more times then just leave. As i'm running to the train station I get sad looks from everyone. I hop on a train and head back to District 4.

In District 4

I get off the train and and start to run to the hospital but soon slow down to a jog because I'm tired. When I walk through the door, Prim is coming toward me.

"Katniss, what's in the bag?" She asks.

"oh clothes, I was hoping you and mum wouldn'y mind if I stayed with you guys for awhile." I say shly. Prim smiles.

"of course you can stay with us! your always welcome." I smile and she starts to head out the door and I start walking to Peeta's room. "wait!" I turn around and Prim comes back up to me. "I was just heading to the house to get some medical things, do you want me to take your bag?" She adds.

"sure, thanks." I hand her my bag and give her a kiss on the forehead. I start to head to Peeta's room again. When I'm about to pass the front desk, the lady there asks "Miss Everdeen, where are you going?" I turn to her.

"I'm going to Peeta Mellarks room." I answer. She gives me a sad smile and nods. I continue walking till I reach room B14. I open the door and gasp and get a bit angry.

"Annie? Haymitch!"
