This is the weekend until we start heading to our classes. I'm in my bed reading 'Paper Towns' from John Green. I have to say that I agree with John Green,

Everybody has a miracle.

Well, some people have a lot of miracles, but I'm not a celebrity that gets a miracle every time my album goes platinum.
Like Quentin, my miracle wasn't extravagant. It wasn't like I stepped foot on Mars or won an Oscar. My miracle was meeting Peeta.
I place my bookmark on page 6. If you didn't know me, I am a slow reader, yet I love books. I let out a sigh of tiredness of the day and walk to Peeta's bed. My body is being filled with anger and frustration, yet I still don't make a sound.

"Peeta?" I squeak as tears make it's way down my cheeks

"Katniss, I can explain." He pulls his lips away from Delly

"No, you don't need to explain nothing, I lived in something that I thought was a dream, I guess it's actually just a dream, not any dream. But a nightmare." I cry in mixed emotions

It's like when Quentin found a body that seemed like they were dead, but they had their eyes open. It's like when he begged Margo to get out of the area. I should be listening to Quentin, I should get my heads out of the clouds, I should get out of here, away from Peeta. With that I run off to the only place I know best. The woods.

My legs step on twigs and leaves, it's like I'm in a movie. I'm the girl who runs into the woods.
My tears are starting to dry out from the wind. I don't really know how I'm feeling. It's like I'm angry frustrated and desperate. Desperate to know how it feels to be cheated on. Not only that, but I also want to know how and why they kissed. I should of let him explain, why did I just block him, why did I try to set an invisible wall between us?

I guess when your angry you don't really know what your doing until you do it.

I find a log near a tree and take a seat putting my head into my hands.

"Katniss?" Someone says

My first instinct is that someone is Peeta. My prediction is wrong, it's the person I never expected. Foster.

"Hey." I try to act all normal

"I heard what happened." He sighs and takes a seat

"Any secrets you want to tell me? I'm always here to listen." Offers Foster

"I was in love with cities I've never been to and people I never met." I quote

The quote was from John Green. I don't know what he felt when he wrote this quote but I sure do.

"I should have met the person before I fell in love with them." I explain

"It's not always like that, everyone get a miracle you know." Says Foster

Just in time, a familiar figure walks toward us, the same person that broke my heart. The same person that got my head out of the clouds.

"Peeta." I say blankly

"Umm I'll get going." Foster announces and both Peeta and I nod

"What did he want?" Peeta sits exactly where Foster once was

"My secrets." I still don't look him in the eye

"Well, he has to get in line." Peeta does a faint chuckle

"What's your secret?" I randomly ask, my head is raised higher

"Umm.." Says Peeta clueless

"Why? Why did you kiss Delly?" I start shredding tears

"Delly, she kissed me, please, Katniss please just believe me." He desperately says

Something about him convinces me but he could sense I still have doubt.

"Okay, how about this." He scoots over to me

Peeta lifts my chin up and let's my lips touch his. The strange thing is that I don't pull away even though I was previously hating him. Who knew he could get my head back in the clouds, who knew he could make me believe that I was in love with people I've never met. None of us want to pull away, but when your kissing, oxygen becomes your enemy. Our lips detach and Peeta and I take a breath.

"I believe you." I smile

That's not the only thing I believe in, I believe that everyone has a miracle, as I said before my miracle was when I landed my eyes on Peeta.

Okay, SOO here's chapter 8. I kind of based this on John Green and Paper Towns because I am beginning reading Paper Towns. I actually really like my writing on this chapter and I hope you guys do too. Have a nice day!

I'm in love with cities I've never been to and people I've never met.
