Chapter 10

"Peeta." I manage to push out, I'm starting to feel sick, I have to tell him this. "Peeta.." I manage to choke out ,"Peeta , I .." I start to feel nauseous. I run to the bathroom , hand cupped over my mouth, push the door open, lock it behind me, dive for the toilet and start gaging. Peeta is banging on and yelling through the door at me to let him in. When he broke the handle to get to me, I was done throwing up.

...

I wake up to find myself in bed, with a glass of water and a slice of zucchini bread on my nightstand. I sit up quickly , immediately feeling dizzy and nauseous again. I feel hands on my should, lightly pulling me back to the bed. I allow them to pull me down and I find myself in Peeta's arms. "Ouch !" I yelp. I reach for the back of my head and feel a huge bump," What is .." I start before Peeta grabbed my arm and shh-ed me. "Katniss, I don't know what you wanted to tell me but if it make you sick enough to throw up your entire breakfast and lunch then I don't know if you should tell me." My eyebrows crease together, "Why is my head wrapped ?" "You slipped on the rug and cracked your head on the corner of the sink Katniss. What the hell did you want to tell me? After thinking about it I want to know." By the tone in his voice he isn't angry or aggravated , more upset, bothered, and urgently asking for an answer. "Peeta, I do want kids but not now." I manage to squeeze out through a whisper. He sits up, no longer holding me. I'm still laying back, giving him a minute . 'What do I do?' I think to myself. So after debating for 45 seconds, I sit up , and rub his back, peeking over his shoulder while I rest my head on his shoulder blade . "Oh my god ! Peeta!" I gasp. He's crying. "Peeta! Peeta please answer me ! What is it? What's wrong? Was it me? Was it what I said. Oh my god Peeta! I'm so sorry! Peeta !" I cry out at him. I'm now sobbing. 'God Katniss you're so stupid ! Why would you say anything!' I think to myself again. I feel Peeta's hand on my shoulder, rubbing it down my arm and back to my shoulder. "Katniss.." Peeta whispers still crying. I don't say anything, I just reach out and hug him. He pulls me over him , on to his lap. Were still hugging when he starts to finish his sentence, "What changed your mind?" I still don't let go of him but I tell him about the bunnies. "... and when the 8 little ones came out after her, I couldn't do it. Her babies need her.." I pause," like ours will need me." I pull away from Peeta, still looking down. "Katniss, I love you." I look up, "I love you too Peeta." And that's when it happened.
