After Mockingjay Katniss & Peeta

Chapter 1

KATNISS POV

I sit in my bed. Alone. Like always.

I hear a knock at my door. I ignore it until I hear the knock again.

I push myself up and go downstairs to see who is disturbing be this early in the morning.

I open the door and see a drunken Haymitch.

"Hey sweetheart" he says to me.

He reeks of alcohol and I try breathing through my mouth so I don't smell it.

"What do you want Haymitch" I say rather rude and annoyed.

"I just came by to tell you the boy is coming back in a couple of days. Just giving you a heads up so you can take a shower or something and look less dead" he says

"I'd have to say the same to you. thank you for the information Haymitch." I say and close the door.

Peeta's coming back. My Peeta. No. He's not yours anymore. Snow took him from you. I love him. He probably doesn't love me. Katniss! stop thinking about it.

I listen to myself and stop thinking about it.

I go up and take a shower. My first in days.

When I get out I hear movement down in the kitchen.

I assume it's just greasy sae like always.

Maybe I'll finally eat something today. By the way I look, it might be best.

I've never realized it but as I look in the mirror I see how...skinny I am. A little too skinny. Unhealthily skinny.

You can easily see my rib cage through my skin.

I get dressed and go downstairs to find eggs and bacon on a plate on the kitchen table.

I dig in and realize I'm actually starving. I wonder why I've never had an appetite before. Maybe it's because Peeta's coming back.

After I eat I go upstairs and sit in my window watching for something I just don't know what.

All of a sudden a car pulls up in front of the house across the street from mine.

Then I see him.

His beautiful blond hair. His muscular body. Sadly I cannot see his gorgeous blue eyes I am dying to see.

I see him walk into his house and I decide to go over to haymitch's house.

I grab my coat and walk over to my neighbors house.

I walk in not even bothering to knock.

"Haymitch!" I call from inside his house. I walk over to his living room and see him sprawled on the couch, of course, with a cup of alcohol.

"Well what a lovely surprise" he says to me.

"Peeta's back" I say casually trying not to sound to excited.

"Ah. thanks for the information. I think I'll go chat with him about a few things then I'll let you go and see your lover boy." he says.

"shut up haymitch" I say and walk out the door.

As I'm walking to my house I'm thinking about something. This certain something makes me smile so much and I don't even know why. Maybe it's because, I love this certain something.

Peeta. Wow. I've never actually realized it but I know I've always loved him. I love Peeta Mellark.

But does he love me?
