She Has My Heart Forever

Chapter 49 Gone?!?!

Katniss POV

The next morning is quiet, I get up, out of bed and walk down to the living room. After everything's thats happened its getting harder to sleep. I try my best but it doesn't work. Even next to Peeta, snuggled up in his grip. I shake my head at my sleeplessness and try to wake up as I hear somebody walking down the stairs. I look up and see Jas and Jace. They sleepily walk over to me and crawl up onto the couch.

"Morning." I say smiling. They smile too and snuggle up to me. "You all sleep well?"

"Yes, there was some noise in Rye's room though." Jas says. I give her a confused look.

"Hmm...maybe he was up with Emily." I say. They shrug and I turn the TV on, we watch Spongebob just as Peeta walks in. He walks over to me and kisses the top of my head. I smile and look up to me to see his sexy messy hair and see how tired he is. He walks to the kitchen. I ease out of the grip of the two and follow him.

"Hey, you okay?" I ask walking over to him. He sighs and nods, I wrap my arms around his waist and rest my head against his chest.

"You sure? You seem very tired." I say looking up to him. He runs his hand thought my hair and smiles.

"Its hard to relax. Hard to sleep." he says softly. I sigh and pull him down to kiss me lightly.

"Me neither." I say. He frowns and wraps his big arms around me, pulling me up against him.

"Lets try and fix that tonight." he says smirking making me smile. Really?

"Peeta....is this really the time?" I ask.

"Well.....everybody's home. Everybody's safe." he says brushing a strain hair from my face. I smile and kiss him again just as Bryant runs in.

"Mom I can't find Rye." he says.

"What?" I ask.

"He's not in his room and its a mess." he says. I look to Peeta who looks as worried as I do so we rush out of the kitchen and up to his room to see it in a mess and both Emily and Rye gone.

"No..Peeta." I start crying. He wraps his arms around me and pulls me out, taking the phone from the hallway and calling the police. I start to losing my breath.

"Hey, hey calm down." he says holding me tightly.

"My son is gone again!" I say pulling from him. "We have to find them!"

"I know. But freaking out isn't gonna help." he says. "Its going to be okay." I sigh and nod. Soon we wait for the cops.

~Later~

We're sitting in the living room, talking to the police. They've been asking questions about everything.

"Now..who do you think took them? Do you have any hints?" Officer Berny asks.

"Hawthorne. Thats his last name." I mutter.

"Alright, Gale?" he asks.

"No, Gale's dead." I say. He was the officer that worked that case. He was very young then.

"Oh...right. Then who could it be?" he asks. I shake my head and shrug.

"I don't know." I say looking down Peeta.

"Alright, thats all for now. We're be in contact and start searches today." he says nodding and leaving with the rest. I sigh and look down.

"Its going to be okay Kat." Peeta says sitting down. "I'm gonna take the kids to Finnick's." I nod. He kisses my cheek and stands up, walking upstairs. How can this be happening? Why....why is he going after my son? Peeta takes them away and I crawl onto the couch. I cry and cover myself with a blanket, waiting for Peeta to return as the door opens.

"Peeta....can...can we just...Peeta?" I say sitting up. I hear him walk over to me, kneeling down. His hand rests on my thigh and another on the blanket, pulling it off. My eyes are blinded and have to adjust when I see somebody so familiar. Dark messy hair, grey eyes and muscular. It looks....like...like Gale.

"Wha...." I'm out of words.

"Hello Katniss." he says softly before knocking me out and into darkness.
