Cressida P.O.V

I was currently waiting for Katniss to get to my dorm, whilst going through footage we had shot. I had told the guys about Katniss and me dating when I first got back, Pollux and Messala smiled at me and Castor and I made up. I was brought out of my thoughts when there was a knock on the door.

When I opened the door I was surprised to see Haymitch standing with a depressed Katniss.

"Peeta's back." Haymitch said before walking away, and I took Katniss into my arms, kissing her hair lightly.

"I promise I won't let anything come between us." Katniss said quietly, in to my chest.

"I know you won't, now give me your bag and I'll come with you to see him." I said, taking the bag from Katniss.

I walked into my room placing Katniss' bag on my bed before rushing out the door, slamming it closed. When I got to Katniss I put my arm around her waist, not caring who saw us.

We quickly walked to the hospital, my hand still around Katniss' waist. When we got there I quickly let go of her waist as the hospital was usually fairly busy.

When we opened the doors the first thing we saw was a bald Johanna and Annie running upto Finnick, but Peeta was no where to be seen.

We walked down the corridor until we saw Gale, and Katniss ran to hug him, although he didn't return the hug.

"He's in there." Gale said, motioning to a metal door.

I walked up to her and whispered in her ear "Go in, I'll wait here for you."

Katniss P.O.V

I went into Peeta's room, with Haymitch following behind me.

"Peeta" I whispered as he turned around to face me. He was purple in places and his face seemed to have been sucked in.

Suddenly Peeta lunged at me, his hands clamping around my throat as I gasped for air, Haymitch and the doctors tried to get him off of me, but he was too strong.

Soon I began to see black, as I was still trying to get air. They finally got Peeta off of me, but I began to fall in and out of consciousness, the last thing I remembered was seeing Cressida run towards me.

Cressida's P.O.V

As I waited outside of Peeta's room, I glared daggers at Gale, he was supposed to be her best friend, but he had not been a very good friend to her over the past few weeks.

"What is it Cressida? Why are you glaring at me like that?" Gale asked.

"Because you haven't been there for Katniss since you got to 13." I spat back at him.

Suddenly I heard smashing in Peeta's room and got worried. Then I heard screaming, and I knew that was Katniss.

I ran into the room to find her unconscious, and I let tears fall from my eyes when I saw the bruising around her neck. I ran over to her and knelt beside her, gently placing her head on my knees.

"What happened to her?"

"Peeta was hijacked by the Capitol and attempted to kill Katniss." Haymitch said, looking at me suspiciously.

Then Katniss was mounted onto a hospital bed, and Haymitch pulled my aside to talk.

"Ok, why are you suddenly so overprotective of Katniss?" Haymitch asked, looking at me curiously.

"Umm. Me and Katniss are dating." I said quitely, dropping my head and waiting for Haymitch to scold me. But instead he put his hands on my shoulders.

"Take care of her." He said with a smile, and he walked away.
