Chapter 33

Katniss P.O.V.

When we're on our way to our train paparazzi's and reporters surrounds us.

It's like we're famous or something. But maybe we are. I mean we are on a tour and we have preformed on live TV two times, which in one of them I like collapsed.

The reporters starts shouting questions as the cameras takes pictures of us.

"Katniss what happened?"

"Katniss why did you collapse?"

"Peeta how did you feel when she fell beside you?"

"Leave them the duck alone, they're kids alright! Now leave!" Haymitch yells at them before he take mine and Peeta's hands and pulls us with him and on the train.

Maysilee and my grandma comes on right after us and a minute later the train is on move.

"Well this is going to be on the news tomorrow", Maysilee mutters and collapse in a armchair.

The others sits down in the other armchairs as well. But I don't. I sit down on the floor in the middle of Peeta's legs and lean agains him. He starts playing with my hair.

My grandma have been crying for hours now after Peeta told the other about the miscarriage, when they came in to visit before I could leave the hospital.

Now she don't cry, but her eyes are red.

I haven't told her that I'm kind of relieved about the miscarriage. I mean yeah, it's really sad and I'm sad about it. But we could never be able to take care of a baby. Honestly, I don't know what to think.

"Katniss why didn't you tell us about your stomach aches?" Haymitch asks.

"I didn't know it was that serious", I say.

"But if it hurt that bad, you should've known that something wasn't right", grandma says.

I sigh.

"Yeah I know", I say.

"And how you managed to stay happy and then preform is out of my mind", Maysilee says. "I mean girl, you're the strongest human I've ever met".

And at this I laugh.

Peeta continues to play with my hair. I like it. It comforts me.

But then my phone rings. And Peeta's.

We both answer our phones and get our ears blown away.

It's our friends in a group conversation. They're all screaming at us and don't let us talk or say anything.

"I'm right beside Katniss so I'm gonna hang up!" Peeta yells and hangs up the phone.

I put my phone on speaker so everyone hear them yell.

"Katniss what happened?" Clove yells.

"Why did you faint?" Glimmer yells.

"I'm coming to you, I can't let my cousin just faint on stage!" Marvel yells.

"No guys stop it! I'm fine and Marvel stay where you are, god!" I yell and everyone shuts up. "Glim, Marv, grandma's here, and you're all on speaker so watch what you're saying".

"Oh. Hey grandma", Marvel says, a little calmer.

"Hi sweetheart", grandma says.

"So what's wrong with you Kat?" Cato asks.

"Nothing", I say.

"Don't even try that Kat, we all saw you collapse beside Peeta on stage", Annie says.

"Yeah, so don't even try to lie, not that you could, but still", Finnick says.

"Would you guys just shut up and let them talk?" I hear Skeeter say.

Aw My sweet Skeeter. I can hear that she's still depressed, but something is alive in her voice. Maybe the scare of seeing me collapse on TV woke up something in her.

"Okay so what happened then?" Gale asks.

"Shut up jerk, who asked you to speak up?" Glimmer hisses.

"Glimmer!" Grandma says sternly.

"Sorry", she says.

They're still hard in Gale, and I don't care. But I can feel that Peeta do care.

"I'm okay you guys, I just, all day today, I have suffered of stomach aches, and I did during the whole concert and I just held everything back", I say. "Then when I fainted they brought me to the hospital and the doctors tells me when I woke up that I had a ... That I had a miscarriage".

Everyone goes silent. They don't say a single word. And this makes me nervous.

"Guys come on, say something", I beg.

"You had a what?" Glimmer asks.

"A miscarriage", Peeta says.

"So you're not joking?" Marvel asks, and I hear his protective cousin voice take over. That's actually kinda funny.

"No they're not joking, we were there", Haymitch says.

"Wait... Haymitch?" Annie asks.

"I'm person", Haymitch says.

"What? Our teacher Haymitch? Our drunk teacher Haymitch Abernathy?" Finnick asks.

"Yes, and FYI, I'm not a drunk anymore", he says and everyone at the end of the phone starts laughing.

We stay explaining everything to them. And they don't believe that Haymitch have a girlfriend. And that's when Maysilee speaks up.

"Okay kids, stop being so hard on him, I am his girlfriend", she says.

"Yes and she's really pretty", I add, and I see how she smiles at me.

"Haymitch with a pretty girl?" Cato asks in disbelief.

Okay. They're pretty hard on him. But them again I was as well in the beginning.

Haymitch don't even care. He just sits and looks annoyed.

But it's really late, and I'm getting tired.

"Guys, I'm gaming up now, because I'm really really tired and I want to sleep, good night", I say and hang up without waiting for them to say goodnight back.

I stand up and take Peeta's hand before we start walking to our compartment.
