Katniss' POV
I'm in the nurse's office waiting for Peeta to gain consciousness again. All I can think about is how much I hate Gale for doing this. I have a plan to get back at him, but I'm going to need Peeta's help.

"Miss Everdeen?"

"Yes"

"Peeta's awake"

I make my way towards the room Peeta is in and I see he has a big bruise on his head, the only thing I say to him is...

"Why?" I question. He sighs knowing exactly what I'm asking him.

"He called you a slut." Peeta frowns and looks at the ground. The thought of Peeta defending me brings a slight smile to my face.

"You didn't have to do that, but thank you." I say gently.

"No problem, I just couldn't let him talk about you like that, if he knew you at a-" I cut Peeta off with a hug. I wish it was a kiss but it's to soon.

"It's ok. And once again thank you," I smile at him and he does the same, I look into those gorgeous blue orbs, I could stay like this for hours.

I feel myself leaning in and he does the same. Our lips soon meet and fireworks go off inside me. I run my fingers through his soft blonde hair, and he puts on hand one my cheek and the other on my waist pulling me closer.
