Cressida P.O.V

I sat with Katniss, she had woken up a few hours ago, however she wasn't aloud to talk, due to the bruising. She also had a neck brace on.

I sat there stroking her hair, thinking about what happened yesterday, it had been traumatic for both of us, and I hoped nothing like this would happen again.

No one except my crew, Haymitch and possibly Prim knew about us, and I wanted to keep it that way.

As I sat there stroking her hair, she fell asleep. I got up out of the chair to go and make sure the crew where all right, planning to get back before she woke up again.

When I got back to the dorm my crew looked up at me with concern written all across their faces.

"What happened yesterday? We thought something had happened to you when you didn't come back." Messala asked quickly.

"Katniss went into the room that Peeta's being kept in, and apparently he was hijacked by the Capitol, so he tried to kill Katniss. I didn't come back last night because I was in the hospital with Katniss." I replied tiredly, due to getting no sleep the night before.

"Is she ok?" Castor asked quitely.

"Yeah, she's fine, just a lot of bruising and she isn't aloud to talk for a while. But she'll live." I responded.

Katniss P.O.V

When I woke up Cressida wasn't there, but I assumed she wouldn't leave me if it wasn't important. However there was a doctor there, as well as Plutarch Heavensbee.

The doctor took my neck brace off and starting pressing down at the bruising, which hurt like hell.

When I drew back the doctor said: "It's ok. The area's still a little tender. Now I want you to try your voice. Say 'My name is Katniss Everdeen and I'm from district 12."

"My..." I said croakly

"It's ok. Take your time. You still have a lot of swelling in your vocal chords."

"My...name......is.....Katniss...... Everdeen...." I said slowly and quitely. I turned my head to Plutarch. "I...I want to see him. " I said in barely a whisper.

Plutarch shook his head and said. "No, he needs time. But we're trying something new today. He's been doing well with the doctors but um where still strangers to him and we're gonna test his response on someone he remembers from home. Someone he trusts. " And with that I was out of the bed following Plutarch.

When we were exiting the room I saw Cressida walking towards us. When our eyes met she smiled brightly at me, probably happy to see me out of the neck brace.

She walked up to me and hugged me. "Are you ok?" She asked me, still embracing me tightly around the waist.

"Yes." I said with a small smile, my voice becoming a lot clearer.

"Good." She responded, kissing my hair lightly.

With that we followed Plutarch again to the room where Peeta was being kept.

When we got there Haymitch was standing in front of a glass window, and as soon as Cressida saw Peeta she put her around around my waist protectively, but still trying not to let anyone know we're dating.

"Send her in." Plutarch said firmly.

With that Prim walked into the room. And Haymitch put his arm on my shoulder.

"Hey" Prim said quietly.

"Prim?" Was Peeta's response, but he didn't sound like himself at all.

"She's too close!" Haymitch said from beside me.

"It's ok." Plutarch responded.

"We live in District 13 now, it's a real place. The stories are true. You where rescued." Prim said to Peeta.

"My family hasn't come to see me. There was an attack on 12." Peeta responded.

"Yes" Was Prim's only reply.

"And my family?"

"The bakery didn't survive." Prim said with tears threatening to fall from her eyes.

Peeta sighed and stared intensely at a wall, close to where I was standing, which made Cressida hold me tighter.

"It's was Katniss. It's because of Katniss." Peeta said after a while.

"It's wasn't because of her." Prim said.

"Did she tell you to say that?"

"She didn't tell me anything." Prim said truthfully.

"She's a liar Prim! It's true!" He responded.

"Peeta. What you're saying isn't real. " Prim said softly.

"She sent you here to talk to me! She knows your here now!" Peeta said loudly, but not yelling.

"It's ok." Prim said trying to calm him down, as she shifted on the side of his bed up to a standing position, putting room between her and Peeta.

"You can't trust her! She's a monster! She's a mutt the Capitol created to destroy us!" Peeta yelled, causing Cressida to tighten her grip on me once again, if that was even possible.

"Get her out of there." Haymitch ordered.

"Do you understand me! You have to kill her Prim! You have to kill her!" Peeta yelled aggressively, thrashing in his bed.

"Katnis" Cressida said to me softly, as she nuzzle the top of my head quickly. Peeta was still yelling.

"This is just a condition response. It's not him." Plutarch said, Peeta still yelling at Prim.

"No, it's not him." I responded. With that Cressida led me away.

"Do you want to come to my dorm? Or do you want to go to yours?" She asked quitely.

"Yours." I responded quitely. Prim would probably be at our dorm now and I didn't want to face her.

"Ok babe, let's go." She said, leading me off, as I smiled slightly.
