Chapter 16:

"What!" I snap.
"i love you....." She says, in a small kitten like voice. I can't even look at her! I'm thinking too hard, I'm too upset!
"I REAAALLY don't want to talk to you right now!" I say, in my "I'm-clearly-upset" voice!
"WHY NOT!!!" She SCREAMS at me!

"YOU WANNA KNOW WHY, KATNISS?" I scream, while turning to face her, "BECAUSE WHEN YOUR UPSET, OR HAVE A SECRET, OR SOMETHING YOU WANT TO GET OFF YOUR CHEST, OR WANT TO SAY SOMETHING, YOU WON'T! YOU WON'T TELL ME, YOUR FRICKIN' FIANCE! I TELL YOU EVERYTHING, KATNISS! WHY CAN'T YOU? HUH? Right now I need time to think about what I just did on FRICKIN' PUBLIC TV! KAY!" I scream in face. She starts to cry, but right now I don't give a crap! If she's not gonna come talk to me, then I'm not gonna comfort her!

She starts to CRY now. And when I say cry, I mean CRY! The shrieking and wailing and shaking and everything! Like when your best friend died kindav'e cry! Now I know she's truly sorry, and clearly upset! I can't take it anymore! I let her cry a little longer, though so she can think about what to say. I n the meantime, I take a shower, and get dressed in comfy clothes, and grab a very fuzzy and warm blanket. I stop by Katniss's room, and grab her comfy PJ's too. Then go back to back of the train. She's still crying hysterically!

 Now I feel sorry.

"sweetheart?" I say, almost kitten like just like she did. She doesn't answer me, she only falls over onto the couch, in a ball. So me, being the nice, sweet, gentle guy I am, go over and grab her by the waist, and cradle her to her room.

"You decide, Katniss. Should I stay or should I go? Should we get married or not?" I ask her, I'm not playing anymore games. She wipes her tears,

"Peeta? I love you with all of my heart! Truly, I do really LOVE you! I think you should stay." She breathes heavily, "But I do not think we should get married YET, well not so soon I mean! I love you Peeta, and I do want to marry and be with you, just not so young, not right at this moment. Could we stay engaged, but not get married till another few more years?" She says, tears welling in her eyes.

"STOP! Don't cry, Katniss! I love you too much, to see you in pain! And I will stay with you forever, if you want me to! I also agree with you on the marriage thing, I was literally just thinking the same thing! I LOVE YOU SOOOOO MUCH, KATNISS EVERDEEN!" I lead her back to the couch so we can snuggle and talk. We make it to the couch when,

"Katniss......?"
