Dangerous- An Everlark Fanfiction {COMPLETED}

[7] Thinking Bout You

Katniss POV
two days later

"Hey it's Peeta, I can't make it to the phone right now but leave me a message and I'll get back to you as soon-"

I hang up and sigh. Peeta hasn't been answering my calls for the past two days.

He's been on my mind non stop, I wonder where he is, where he's been. I wonder if he's been thinking about me as much as I've been thinking about him.

I look on Instagram and go to Peeta's page. I look on his tagged pictures and see a Finnick Odair tagged him in a picture.

@finnickodair - swimming with bae

Oh I remember Finnick. He was there when Peeta took me out for dinner, Finnick severed us and said that he and Peeta were a couple but he was willing to make an exception for me because I seemed to make Peeta happy.

I also see Johanna tagged him in a photo yesterday. Johanna and Peeta became friends after the bakery started being her regular breakfast place.

@johannamason - touring a film set was all cool until this one decided to actually be apart of the film. He didn't want to leave.

Okay this is good. I can just call Johanna and ask her if Peeta's okay.

Calling Johanna

"Katniss?" She slurs.

"Are you drunk? It's only 1pm?" I ask her.

"No I just woke up, why are you calling?"

"I was wondering if Peeta's okay? He hasn't answered any of my calls and I saw on Instagram-"

"You really are so brainless. I take it you've been stalking him on Instagram?"

"Maybe, I just want to see if he's okay"

"Maybe you should leave him alone for a bit Katniss, I took him to that film set because he came to me upset saying something about you not wanted to be with him or something? Look i don't know, I do that that he was upset over you, so maybe give him some space" Johanna tells me.

"But I-"

"I know I know, it's a long time to go without a fuck but if it gets that bad, sort yourself out or go out and get someone else"

"Johanna! Why would I get someone else when I've been..." But I trail off. I was about to say I've been seeing Peeta. I told him the other day I wasn't. I told him I just wanted to fuck him and that's it.

"Ive got to go bye" I tell Johanna and quickly hang up.

I'm so stupid. How could I have not realised it before. It was never just about fucking Peeta. If I wanted a good fuck i could've just went out and found someone else but it wasn't. It wasn't just about the sex. It was about me wanting Peeta and only Peeta.

And he wanted me until I told him I didn't want him.

I start to think about all the things Peeta said about 'fixing the hole'. I guess he did. I start to realise that I haven't thought about Gale in over a month. I haven't cried in over 3 months. In fact I've been smiling and laughing more than I ever have.

In between all the sex I've spent real time with Peeta. I've talked to him about things I've never talked to anyone about before. He made me smile when I woke up crying and he comforted me just by letting me know he was there.

I never thought he was going to leave me. I took him for granted. I used him. I used him over and over again and he let me. He knew what I was doing but yet he didn't ever leave.

He stayed with me. He didn't have too, he could've left. He could've went out and found a girl that would've loved to spend time with him and love to go out on dates with him. Then I realise another thing; that girl is me.

I loved to spend time with him. I loved to go out with him, we did go out on dates, we just never put a label on it, or at least I didn't.

Now that I've not seen or heard from him in two days; I miss him. I don't miss the sex, well I do a little bit more importantly, I just miss his presence in my apartment.

When I told him I needed him a couple of months ago, I mainly said it because I wanted him to stay, i didn't want him to find another girl. But I really meant it. Looking back on it now I really did need Peeta and I really do need him now.

I need to fix this. If Peeta won't answer my phone calls, I'll just need to go straight to him.
