Sorry guys! 

A chapter will be up later tonight i just wanted to know peoples opinions on a story idea along similar lines as many others where Katniss realises her feelings for Peeta before the victory tour. It would begin with them both returning home after the 75th games. Here's a taster, let me know if you think this would be a good idea??

Katniss’ letter.

Once the cameras have disappeared we are finally given some alone time as we slowly begin our walk home.

“What happens now?” He asks as we reach victors village and our new home. The answer I want to give is I don’t know, that I guess we just try to forget but I just don’t know if that’s the truth anymore and I know above all else I can’t lie to him. Of everyone in this world I can’t lie to him. I know I have feelings for him but what those feelings are I couldn’t tell, I haven’t had time to decipher them. What can I do, what do I do?

“What do you mean?” I ask coming to a standstill as we reach the crossroads to our new houses.

“What happens now?” He repeats and as I stand there staring quietly at him.

“I mean, between us, I need to know if what happened in the arena was real.”

“I need time.” I blurt out as I leave him and begin to make my way to my new home. Yes. Time is exactly what I need but I know I will never be able to tell him exactly what I want to his face. I’m no good with words I would mess it up, confuse him most probably. Maybe I could put it all in a letter. That’s exactly what I will do. That way there will be no confusion as to my feelings and maybe writing them down will help me to work out exactly what these feelings are too. I vow to myself that I will let Peeta know exactly what is going on in my head through a letter.

“How much time?” I hear him call as I reach the top step of my new home. I turn to look at him, possibly the worst thing I could have done as I know this will be the last time I properly talk to him until I write this letter. My resolve begins to falter, maybe that’s a sign in itself. No, I must do this, I must allow myself time.

“I don’t know.” I answer honestly and I see his shoulders slump but he accepts my answer so I turn back around to enter my new home.
