Cato
I woke up in the middle of the night and felt Peeta's head on my chest. I didn't know how much color and vibrancy love can have and be until I met this scared, frightened kid. This kid was my world now. We were now officialy dating and we were gonna make the best of it.
When two people fall in love, the terms I and me don't exist anymore. We is the new black in terminology and you begin to think of how you can help the two of you and not just yourself anymore. It felt good to care for someone like that...
However, I also knew what was gonna happen at school and in Plum Creek if we made our love public. The bakery would fail and Peeta would be an outsider. Not to mention me. My reputation would be ruined and my friends, especially Clove, would disown me and I would end up like Cashmere. Alone and friendless save for the few friends at school she did have. All because Katniss was her first kiss...
Not many people remembered that nowadays, but Katniss and Cashmere still had a closeted relationship. However Katniss was torn between Gale and Cashmere. She still didn't know who she loved more. Honestly I could relate. My sister was a bombshell, and that says a lot coming from her brother. And I had the biggest crush on Gale in middle school but I was over it. I had Peeta now. He was all that mattered. That was the last thing I thought of as I dozed back to sleep.
Peeta
I woke up at dawn listening to Cato's heartbeat going up and down in a slow rhythm. I began to cry again, but this time because I was happy. Someone wanted to be with me, someone actually took notice of me for once and most of all I hadn't been expecting it. I had no idea I could ever be in love with Cato and now I knew I could be truly happy because I knew this was the man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with forever and ever.
I had no idea where my father was. I missed him badly. But I knew that now I had someone who could help me not only get through my grief but also someone who cared enough about me to stick by my side in love and life.
I stared at him in the moonlight.He was so beautiful when he was sleeping, and his blonde hair was shiny and rustled softly in the faint wind.
I leaned up to his mouth and gave him a soft kiss. "I love you baby" was all I whispered as I went back to sleep.
