Forever Loved (BEING EDITED)

Chapter 27; Talking About It

   Katniss POV

  Its Saturday and on Monday its Christmas. I feel bad for yelling at Nalla. It was just in the moment. I never got to apologize to her but I hope she will forgive me. I can't apologize on Monday because we are all off of work for Christmas.

  It doesn't even matter what she told Peeta. I came home yesterday and he was actually there. But he asked me, " Did you get your little work friend to get me to forgive you."

   I didn't know how to answer. Ever since he has been mad at me, he has barely let me finish any of my sentences.

This morning I wake up and go downstairs. Peeta still didn't sleep with me. He slept in the guest room. We haven't had a full conversation ever since he thought I was cheating on him.

I go to the kitchen where I smell breakfast. I see him at the counter eating.

" You made breakfast?," I ask and he looks up at me.

" For me," he says and I nod knowing that that made more sense.

I just look at him for a while. " Peeta, we need to talk," I say and he shakes his head.

" I don't feel like arguing right now," he tells me and I go to stand next to him.

" Peeta, I know you're angry but you need to listen to me. What you think happened, isn't what really happened," I tell him and he stands up putting his plate in the sink.

" Did you just make up a story to tell me. Because if you did I don't need to hear it," he says leaving the kitchen.

I don't know what to do. Maybe if I tell him about the baby, he will actually try to listen to me. All of a sudden, I feel nauseous like I am going to throw up.

l run to the nearest bathroom and begin throwing up in the toilet. I shut the door behind me and continue retching. When I'm done I stay on the floor just crying.

I just want Peeta to listen to me. I miss him being nice and happy but if I tell him what happened, he could get hurt.

I need to get out of the house. I have to clear my mind so I can relax and not stress myself out. I get up, brush my teeth and take a quick shower. I go into my room and put on some clothes.

When I'm done I quickly leave the house not wanting to deal with another argument.

Where should I go? I decide to go to Prim's apartment. She always makes me feel happier. I go to her house and knock on the door.

" Who is it?," I hear her ask from behind the door.

" It's Katniss," I say and she opens the door.

" Hey!," she says and I just smile.

" Hey can I come in," I ask and she pulls me into her apartment.
" This isn't a bad time, is it?," I ask her and she shakes her head.

" No not at all," she tells me. " I wasn't doing anything anyway."

" Okay good," I say and she looks concerned.

" Is everything okay?," she asks me and I shake my head.

" No.," I reply and she instantly pulls me to the couch to sit down.

" Whats wrong," she asks me.

I haven't told her that I was pregnant yet so I think I should tell her now.

" Peeta and I are arguing," I say and she asks me why. I explain to her everything that happened and I can see she feels bad.

" Have you guys talked about this," she asks.

" No... he won't listen to me. He is too angry to even have one conversation with me," I say and she frowns. " And there is one thing that I really have to tell him but I don't know if he will be angry or not."

" Well what do you have to tell him?," she questions me and I look down at my hands not knowing how to say it.

" Well um... I have to tell him that... we have a baby on the way," I say and her face lights up with excitement.

She stands up and starts shouting. " What!! Really! Are you serious," she exclaims happily. I'm glad she is excited about this.

   " Yea, I found out a few days ago," I tell her as she is jumping up and down and hugging me like a child.

   " Ohhhh! Congratulations!!," she says with cheerfulness.

   " Thank you!!," I say. I knew she would make me happy again. Prim knows how to cheer someone up.

   She puts her hand on my stomach in disbelief. " I can't believe I am going to be an aunt." she exclaims.

  " I know. You will be a great aunt," I tell her and she gives me a hug.

  I didn't expect her reaction to be quite like this. I thought she would probably be excited but not this excited.

   We continue to talk about things besides my relationship with Peeta right now. I show her the pictures of the baby and she couldn't keep her eyes off them.

  " Im so happy for you, Katniss," she says.

   " So how are you and Andrew," I ask her and she gives me a frown.

  " Katniss, we don't have to talk about this," she says. I'm guessing because I am having problems with Peeta and she doesn't want to make me upset.

  " It's fine. I want to know," I tell her and she nods.

  "  Well we're great!," she exclaims and I laugh.

   " Thats good," I tell her still laughing.

   " Yea he is a great guy. Thank you for getting him to talk to me at the restaurant that time," She thanks me and I smile.

   " No problem, Prim," I say.

     I still have to figure out if I should tell Peeta the news now or on Christmas. I guess I can wait a few more days.
