☼Katniss POV☼

Turning back to face the car that has supposedly just drove through me, a thought comes to mind and i remember his words. "If you are ever in any danger, we will protect you, your human body will be immortal." I whisper to myself, imitating what he told me.

My eyes are wide as i start to walk backwards away from the crowds but come to a stop when i feel a hand grab my arm. That blonde haired boy with mesmerizing eyes stands in front of me.

"Hey, are you alright? I am so sorry i didn't see you!" He says before taking a moment to look down at my unharmed body. 

"W..what? How do you not have a scratch on you?" His brow furrows in confusion.

"Umm.. I have to go." I say, pulling my arm out of his grasp.

Smiling to himself, he starts to walk beside me as the crowds seperate. I wander down the street and we end up in front of a small little coffee shop that overlooks the beach.

"Shall we?" He hold the door open for me and beams a smile.

"Really?" I say with a hint of sarcasm in my voice.

"Yes." He says, while looking into his eyes i feel star struck, they are so beautiful and amazing and... For one day it might not matter about the rule, just one day.

 I frown slightly before sighing in defeat.

"I don't even know you. You could be an axe murderer or something?" I say.

"Well, there is always that possibility. But come on, just coffee." He replies.

I make a face at him and he raises an eyebrow in return. We then walk in and take a seat at a far away table.

"Why am i doing this..?" I mutter to myself, overthinking the decision.

"Because, you think i am an awsome and attractive human being." He smirks while saying.

I chuckle in amusement but know it is all true in my mind, these feelings. A waitress comes to take our order.

"So." He finally says. "Im Peeta Mellark, you are?"

I take his hand gingerly and reply with, "Katniss Everdeen."

"Hmm, Katniss Everdeen." He says under his breath, as if tasting the word.

What is the deal with this guy?

"Problem?" I question.

"Haha, nope. So, by the look on your face i guess you are not from these parts. Where do you locate?" Peeta says.

What do i say? I just tell the truth, always tell the truth. The truth is that i just moved here from a place that can only be described as fictional. No way. I have to keep it a secret.

"Oh umm.. I just moved here." I manage to get out between sips of delicious hot chocolate.

He smirks, his gaze on his cup. "Well, maybe i could show you around some time?"

My eyes bore into his for a few moments and i whisper, ""That would be lovely."

All of a sudden i start to feel an ache in my stomach and know that this would of course happen as a result of me hanging around with humans for too long so unwillingly i say my goodbyes to Peeta Mellark and head on my way, onto my first mission.

Whilst walking down the hectic streets of Los Angeles i let my mind wander back to the boy with blonde hair and blue eyes, Peeta Mellark. A sigh escapes my throat and i long for him somehow. Long for his warming smile, his mysterious eyes, his potent charm.

Maybe staying away from humans may not be as easy as i thought.
