Chapter 19

-Peeta's POV-

We all look to Marvel wide-eyed.

"Your in for it" Cato says.

Marvel shrugs. "I'm not scared of her"

I see Katniss go up behind him and run her hand up and down his back. His eyes widen at her touch.

"Hey Marvel" she says drunkly and flirtatiously.

He jerks away from her. "Your boyfriend's right here! You shouldn't be hitting on other boys when you have a boyfriend"

She takes a swig from her bottle of beer. "You" she says pointing to him. "Should shut your mouth" she says drunkly.

She walks over to me and stands by my side as I wrap my arm around her waist.

"Can I have some?" I ask her.

She nods and smiles sweetly at me, showing me she's acting drunk. She hands the bottle to me.

I take a sip of it.

"Peeta!" I hear from behind me, I turn to see my mother and father.

"Yeah?"

"Underage drinking mister"

"It's only a game mum, we have to go round the circle and take sips. it's totally fine" I lie.

"Very well then" she says and heads to her study while my father goes to the bakery.

"Your paying for that" I say to Katniss.

"Oh really?" She asks smirking as she stands on her toes to come face-to-face with me.

"Yes" I say back.

"Whatever you say Mellark" she says as she kisses me lightly, teasing me to want more.

"Ooohh Peeta's being teased" they group say in sing song.

"Shut up" I say. "At least I have a girlfriend unlike some of you"

"Oooohh" Finnick says.

The group start talking again while I head to the kitchen after Katniss did. I see her sitting on the decking steps outside through the slidy doors.

I open the door and walk out and sit next to her. I put an arm around her and pull her to me.

"What's up?" I ask.

"They don't like me" she mumbles.

"It's because they think you'll just use me, make me fall for you then you leave me. Plus your popular"

"Why can't they just understand that I do actually like you? Yeah I'm popular but that doesn't mean I'll break your heart" she mumbles.

"I know that and that's the main thing, isn't it?"

She smiles and nods. "But why can't they just see we like each other for who we are not what everyone else thinks we are?"

I shrug.

She comes closer to me and rests her head on my shoulder as I wrap my arm around her and she does the same with both her arms.

I lean down a kiss her lips, she lifts her head and kisses me back with her soft, sweet lips. I can never get bored of these lips.

We get brokn up by a call. "Katniss, there's people here to see you!" Cato shouts.

She makes a confused face as she loks to me and gets up. She walks in with me following a little bit behind her.
