~Hunger Games~

Chapter 8

"Heyyyyyy Peeta!" I said.

"Hey Katniss?... What's up?" He asks.

"Oh you know... doing what everyone else is doing."

He rolled his eyes then grinned.

I'd hate to ruin his happy mood but I have to.

"Listen Peeta, I have been offered this opportunity and I have decided to taken it."

With a confused look he asks me "what opportunity?" :/

"I have joined the Careers..."

"What?? Katniss you can't do this to me! You can't just leave me! What would Haymitch say? I-I-I need you Katniss... Please don't leave me..." Tears were forming in his just like the day of the reaping.

I bit the inside of my cheeks to hold back the tears.

"I'm-I'm sorry..." I choked. Before he could say anything I walked away.

Cato saw a tear on my cheek as I walked by him and he stopped me.

"Katniss? Why are you crying?" He asks.

"What? Um I'm not crying I just got a piece of dust in my eyes." I wiped my eyes.

"Oh c'mon! I know when someone is crying." He says with a smile.

"Never mind about the crying. I've decided that I'm joining you and the carees."

"What? I mean... Really?" His eyes widened. "This is great! We have to tell the others!" He almost says it to lo

I rush over and cover his mouth with my hand. "Shhhhhh! Not yet! Right now it's just between you and I."

"You mean You, me and Cake boy." He winks.

I turn around to see Peeta watching my every move. He turns before I notice his tears.

"I-I have to go." I run off before Cato could stop me.

I walk into our room in the hotel and right away Haymitch yells at me for switching and you can tell he had been drinking.

Peeta walks in the room.

"PEETA! YOU TOLD HAYMITCH!!??" I didn't notice I was screaming.

"What was I supposed to do Katniss??!!??!!" He yells back.

I run over to him and push him against the wall and then ran to my room.

He chased me down the hall but I made it into my room just in time. I locked the door.

He was slamming hard on the door.

I couldn't hold in my years any longer. I cried for a couple hours and I knew... I just knew that Peeta was leaned up against my door.. Crying along with me.

All I wanted to say to him was... I'm sorry.

But I just couldn't.

Writers note: I haven't written a new chapter in a long while but here I am writing again!
