WATTPAD DELETED THE SECOND HALF OF THIS UPDATE I AM SO SORRY. THAT IS WHY IT ENDS WEIRD.

THANKS FOR VOTING AND FEEDBACK❤

I don't know much about coma's but I was told that people, in some cases, can hear whats going on around them but just can't respond without really wanting to come out of the coma and when they are well enough to come out of the coma. I'm going to write this chapter, based on that.

I tired to write this in a way of what I thought Peeta would be thinking, like how'd he'd think that no-one cares and how he doesn't care too much if he died. I hope you can relate.

Peeta POV

I can't see anything. I can't feel anything. The only thing I can do is hear things. Not that there's much to hear, just beeping and doctors whispering to each other. Sometimes I'm fully aware of what's going on around me while other times I can't focus on anything, it varies. I only have one visitor and that's Haymitch; all he ever does is mutter stuff to himself, I try to pick out words and Katniss is mentioned quite a lot but I don't hear much else. What I don't understand is why she hasn't visited me.

Oh, wait, I forgot. She loves Gale, she couldn't care less about me so why would she visit?

The doctor had said a couple of days ago that my head wound was gradually healing and the only way I could wake up from this coma now is if I really want to. No-one cares about me, no-one needs me either so why bother to try and live?

All of sudden I hear someone say something, louder than they ever had said anything before. The whispering of the doctors which is almost constant, stops and one says, 'Let Mr Abernathy in, he has to hear the bad news...'

What bad news?

I hear a door open and someone stomping into the room, that someone who can only be Haymitch.

'What is it doctor?' I hear him ask gruffly.

'Mr Mellark has been in his coma for ten days now and I'm afraid to say that if he doesn't wake up now he won't ever. Since he's not waking up, we're going to have to switch off the life support.'

The room around me goes so silent that I think I've lost my hearing or something, but they're talking about essentially killing me so I can imagine it would be pretty quiet. You'd think I'd be sad or shocked or something considering I'm about to die but really it's a much more peaceful death than any I would have got if I'd died in the Hunger Games.

'You can't. You can't do that! Not without letting her in to see him! She'd go mental if you turn of his life support and she never even got to say goodbye!'

'If Miss Everdeen causes a fuss like last time she tried to get in here-'

Wait what?! That person who tried to get in my room a couple days ago, and had to be carried away screaming was Katniss? I can't believe it... She loves Gale, obviously and she doesn't need me but maybe she cares a little bit...

'Don't be stupid Peeta.' I think to myself, 'No-one cares about you!'

'Please just let her in!' I tune back into Haymitches desperate conversation with the doctor.

'Fine, but only for a few minutes.' The doctor replies, exasperatedly, and with that I hear footsteps run out of the room, to collect Katniss.

At least I'm going to hear her lovely voice again before I die.

It's only a few moments before I hear someone rush through the door, gasp and run straight over to my bedside.

'Oh Peeta! Peeta what happened to you?' It's her, it's Katniss, even her voice makes me feel slightly better. It's a shame she doesn't feel the same way...

'The doctors said you might be able to hear what I'm saying but I don't know, it feels weird without you answering back; there are some things that you need to hear though so I really hope you can hear me. These past ten days have been torture! Knowing you were in so much pain and that I couldn't do anything about it, to be honest it's as if all the happiness has been sucked out of the world.'

Katniss' voice starts getting shaky now, like she's crying or something. I really want to hold her in my arms and comfort her but I feel like this massive weight is pressing down on my whole body, not letting me move a muscle.

'I almost killed Haymitch when he said I wasn't allowed to see you, I needed to see you, I missed you so much, I miss seeing your beuatiful eyes, I miss the way that when you smile at me, this warmth spreads through me and-' Katniss cut herself off with a sob.

But this all sounds familiar in some way....and I can't place where from...

***FLASHBACK***

''I need him to live happily! Every time he smiles, this warmth spreads through me, something no one else can make me feel. And all this time I left him, I put him aside. This sounds weird, but there's this connection I have between him and hope, him and new life, like dandelions. Don't look at me like that Haymitch! I'm being serious! I love him so much that it hurts to even think about!'

***END FLASHBACK***

But Katniss was talking about Gale....right?

Could she have been talking about me?

Even though I'm in a coma, I feel this sudden warmth sweep through my body.
