Of course a hospital Katniss. You just comitted suicide. I fluttered my eyes and I see Peeta sleeping on the chair. Prim as well but she's on top of mother. "Ouch," I groan in pain. I hate these fucking wires tied to me.

"Katniss?" Peeta groans. I smile. "Yes?"
Peeta's eyes instantly went open and he goes to look at me. "I'm glad you're okay." I touch his cheek with my hand or at least try to. "Why wouldn't I be okay?" He glares at me. "You just commited suicide." I nod serious and look down embarrassed. "It was stupid."

"Why did you even do it?" He asks me. I froze. I didn't want to tell him why. It was so fucked up. I've been throwing up, eating a lot more and gaining weight. "Why?!" He demands again. I stood back scared. "You don't need to know," I growl. "Yes I do!" He screams waking Prim up.

"Can you guys shut up?" She asks. "Ryan is on his way with Haymitch. They went shopping for Katniss' present. I was shocked but I didn't want to show it. Presents is not what I want. "Thanks," I muttered. I turn back to Peeta. "Why didn't you tell me?"

He looked down feeling guilty. "That was my past life. Can you not get involved?" "You told me about it asshole but not about this. So I am involved." Before he can respond, the doctors come in. "Hello Ms. Everdeen." "Hi," I respond back tiredly. The doctors come up to me. "How are you feeling?"

"Not well sir," I answer. Peeta covered his face with his hands and I lay back down tiredly. "Anything that happened in the past?" I nod hating the fact that I had to tell them. "I began throwing up and eating a lot more than usual. Also, I put a knife on my hand when I found out my boyfriend was cheating on me which is here right now and then it lead to this also with the fact that he's getting murdered."

The doctor nods and I look at my mother who is humming to a tune my father used to hum all of the time. I let a tear slip out of my eye and Prim wraps her arms around me and we both don't say anything. We are both strong and silent.

"Katniss, why did you do it" Prim begs. "I need to know."

I froze. She didn't have to know. "Prim, it's kind of personal to me and I would really like it if I keep this to myself okay?"

"What's that supposed to mean?" Prim asks.

"I means that I do what I want. You can't tell me what to do cause I'm an adult and you're still a child."

"I grew up Katniss!!! I bet you still act like a child too! You're a bitch and liar and since when have you been supporting me? Huh? Never cause you're selfish and you want Peeta for everything and you committed suicide for him. So you know what? Never mind cause I now know your stupid reason why asshole."

I was shocked by her language but she had no right to say that to me. I can see Peeta look down, his face full of guilt. Too bad bitch. I'm just kidding. But I'm mad at you.

"I never knew you felt that way," I state letting a tear slip out of my eye. "I'm sorry."

She smiles and nods. "That's okay. I felt that way the whole time."

I shake my head. I couldn't believe. I've paid attention to Peeta but how come I was never there. All I can say is that I'm an asshole for not paying attention to her.

I also miss Peeta, maybe that he couldn't resist her of how beautiful she was. She could've had blonde hair and blue eyes which makes her special in appearance. It wouldn't even matter if I knew who she was.

My eyes locked with his and I look away quickly cause I'm drawn to his eyes. I easily get lost into them and I get hypnotized.

"Peeta, once they release me, I want to come over and discuss about this girl," I say sadly. "I'm sorry but I need to know you. I'm not even sure if I know who you really are."

"But-

"No!" I scream letting the tears out. "I need to know cause you don't know how much this is crushing me!" I scream, cry, bang my hands on the table, everything. I feel like I should've just died right now. Without him, I was nothing.

---

I was released from the hospital and Peeta had offer to carry me. I don't need him to, but his touch on me felt nice and warm I couldn't help it. I wrap my arms around him not even caring if I was mad. I needed this right now.

I was confused onto why I'm doing this. I should've slapped him from my anger but I'm calm now enchanting the smell of vanilla and dill. My arms enveloped on his shoulders and as he opens the door, he throws me on the couch.

I'm pretty sure I was light to him but I didn't know how much pain the couch would give me. His presence is what would give me joy. But now, it's like he isolated that away. It brings me sadness. And as I face him, his face was full of anger.

"What do you want to talk about Katniss?" He growls.

"You know what I want to talk about," I state crying. I didn't want to see him like this. Insane, Mad and Out of Control. I can't believe what I done. I made him like this and I'm starting to see why Peeta would cheat on me.

"Right," Peeta spits irritated. "Shut up and stop crying if you want me to tell you about her."

I wipe my tears and began to shake in fear. I think I'm regretting this. But I should stay having my phone just in case I have to call 911.

"Look Katniss, her name was Delly," Peeta states. "Delly Cartwright. She was a worker at the bakery and we would partner up to bake some of the most awesome things in the world. Delly was my best friend ever since I was six and it was so fun just to see her face light up when she would see and we would hug."

I can see him smile at the thought and  I can feel a tear slip out of my eye but wiped it away quickly because I wanted to hear more. So I decided to let him continue.

"She had golden blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes. Delly meant the world to me and I loved her. She was like the girl of my dreams. I would text her 24/7, the same time I would text you so I would be texting you both at the same time. I would text her poems that were so romantic and she would send me kisses. But when I met you, I felt different like I didn't need to do this stuff. My presence was what made you happy."

I began to sob now. I couldn't believe him. She was that one girl Peeta loved. But as I look at him, he came up to me and slapped me.

"I told you to shut up!" He growls. I scream in pain knowing Peeta was not like this. But when I look into his eyes, I can see the blue and I immediately ran slamming the door but he dragged me and slapped me once again.

The tears continue to flow so I managed to escape running slamming the door in his face and I see the snow so I immediately went to my house seeking the warmth I need. But it was nothing compared to his.

I'm sorry. I didn't know how much she meant to you.
