Chapter 8
Peeta's P.O.V
I kissed her. I kissed one of the most popular girls in school. Katniss Everdeen. I've had a crush on her for a while, but I never thought I'd ever kiss her. But I did. That's all I think about my whole English period. Kissing her. "Hey Peeta," Cato says. "Oh..uh..hey Cato," I say. "Word has gone around that you uh...kissed Katniss." He says. "Uh yeah. I did." I say, feeling embarrassed. "Nice one. Turn her boyfriend against her. Way to go." He says, he pats my shoulder. I feel a wave of guilt over me. I never wanted that. I never even knew I'd kiss her. I hope nothing is going wrong because of me. The bell rings, everyone leaves. Katniss bumps into me in the hallway. I see tears running down her face. I stop her. "Katniss what's wrong?" I ask. "I hope you're happy Peeta," she says. "Gale broke up with me because of you!" "Katniss I'm so sorry, I didn't mean for that to happen," I say. "Well, it did Peeta. And it's all your fault!" She says. She lets out a short sob before she storms away. It really is all my fault.
Katniss P.O.V
Sunlight peaks through my closed blinds. I don't open them though. I lay in my room in almost complete darkness. Laying snuggled up in my blankets, soaked in my own tears. It's been almost 5 days since Gale broke up with me. All because of him. I hate him. I hate Peeta. I throw the covers off of me. I go to my mirror. I rip off all the pictures of me and Gale. I tear them apart. "Gale I hate you!!" I scream. The anger disappears. Sadness replaces it. I sink to the floor. A short cry escapes me before I start sobbing. I pick up the two halves of a picture. I put them next to each other. I remember that day. We were hiking. We made camp. Raccoons stole his food. He was pissed but I was laughing. I shared mine. I took the picture of us. We laughed all the next week about it. I'll never forget it. I start crying harder. I hide in my bed again. The covers over my head. My face in my pillow. The sadness has taken its hit now. The last 4 days have been anger. Now it's sadness. My door opens. The end of my bed sinks in. "Katniss," I hear my dad say. My dad. He's home again finally. With his work, he's always gone. I pull the covers off my head. "Hey Kat." He says. I sit up all the way. He hugs me. "I've missed you," I say. "Mom tells me that things haven't been going too good lately." He says. "No," I say and resume crying. "What's been going on lately huh?" He asks. I hide back under the covers. "Gale broke up with me!!" I sob. "Oh sweetie, I'm sorry." He says. He rubs my leg. "All because he saw me kiss someone I didn't love. He loved me but I don't know." "Then why did you kiss him?" He asks. "I don't know! I thought I liked him but I don't know!" I say. "I think you do Kat. You wouldn't have if you didn't." He says. I sit up again. "You really think so?" I ask. I sniffle a bit. "Yeah. I do," He says. "Why don't you come out of hiding for a bit?" "I don't want to," I say. "Well at least open up the blinds Katniss. You can't hide in darkness forever." "Fine," I say. I pull the blinds open. Sunshine beams in. "I'm glad your back," I say. "I've missed you, daddy." "I've missed you too sweetie." He says. "Are you sure about him?" I ask. "That's up to your heart Kat." He says. He walks to the door. "Come out when you're ready Kat." He says before he leaves. 'I will soon.' I think.
