I woke up in Peeta's arms, it felt warm, pleasing and it just felt right.

"Hey, your up." whispered Peeta looking into my eyes, wow, we were close, noses touching.

"Hey," I smiled.

"I love it when you smile," he said happily,

I blushed madly.

"It makes me believe that, yes, we can do this, we are going to live, we can make it another day, your smile just makes me feel, like we can do anything Katniss." he said getting up.

"If we can do anything, does that mean we can find food?" I asked.

It has been a while since we ate that game.

"Of course Katniss!" laughed Peeta.

I smiled the thought of breakfast.

I took out my bow and arrows.

"Peeta, you can find food right?" I asked slightly concerned.

I'm only one person, I am also only eleven, I can't find ALL our food. I start to imagine Peeta and I, a few years later. Peeta is sitting on his butt all day and eats all our food and I'm just always tired out because all I do is hunt.

No, I can't let that happen, not a chance.

"Of course I can, I just can't hunt like you, but berries? I can cover that." he smirked at me.

"Phew!" I said under my breath laughing.

Peeta laughs back and goes deep into the forest. I fear for Peeta loads, I don't want him getting hurt. What if he picks...poisonous berries.

I gotta check on him. I decide to hunt near about his bit, just incase.

I find Peeta kneeling at a bush with Amber coloured berries. Yes, I remember those, my father taught me that they were called Sunsys berries. They taste fruity, a bit like a mix between pineapples and green apples, Peeta did a good job, maybe I can trust him to keep picking the Sunsys berries.

I find a few rabbits by a small dirt hutch.

I shot two of them in the eye and picked them up.

When I got back to our camp, Peeta had a fire started.

"Wow, looks like you CAN survive in the woods Mellark." I smirked.

"Wow, looks like you CANT trust me in the woods Everdeen." smirked Peeta.

I laughed.

I throw the rabbits onto the ground.
