Katniss' POV:

Its been a week since the smartie incident and I am scared out of my mind. What if they catch me, Peeta, Annie or Finnick. I can't believe im so stupid I already ruined thier lives once and i might end up doing that again. I mentally slap myself. I can't believe this. Katniss calm down they don't even know anything yet.  But what if someone else gets blamed for it. I just don't know. DAMN YOU KATNISS!

Peeta's POV;

I sit in the lunch hall waiting for Katniss she still hasnt arrived. Annie is getting worried

"Annie shes fine probably just got hewlp up dont make it bigger than it is" Finnick says to her. She nods. I turn to the door waiting on Katniss' arrival. Thats when I hear the table slam

"Peet" Clove purrs. Oh no! 

"Yes" I say strnly turning round

"Mine tonight?" She asks

"Uh... Okay" I reply. What! NO! We don't even have another plan.

"Perff! See you there" She winks before walking off with a sway in her hips

"PEETA!" Finnick scowls I just shrug helplessly. Finally Katniss arrives and sits quietly in her seat.

"Wheres your lunch?"

"Not hungry" She sighs before putting her head in her hands. I put my hands around her waist. and lean towards her ear

"Baby are you okay?" I whisper she just shakes her head and I notice a few tears slipping her eyes "Look at me" I say and she does I wipe her tears gently and pull her onto my lap. I realise she probably is uncomfortable crying around people so I take her back to her room. I tuck her in bed and sit on the other side softly stroking her hair. She just sobs, her body shaking. 

Eventually she calms down and her tears stop and her body becomes still apart from her soft breaths. I ask her if she wants to talk about it and she just shakes her head. I understand if she doesnt. Sometimes its hard getting things out and you dont want anyone too know but its usually best to let it all out and let someone help you instead of going alone. I don't push it though and continue stroking her hair until she falls into a sleep. Hopefully free of nightmares. I text Annie and ask if we can switch rooms for the night and she instantly replies with a 'sure'. I lie next to Katniss and wrap her in my arms before falling into my own Dreamless sleep.

KATNISS POV:

I wake up to find myself in Peeta's embrace. I smile to myself and lay there looking at his sleeping figure. His ashy blonde hair falling over his eyes and his lucious lips staring at me. I lean down and brush my own pair against his, waking him.

"Morning beautiful" He yawns

"Morning handsome" I smile

"Your in a better mood today"

"BEcause I realised how lucky I am to have you" He just takes me in for another embrace and I gladly accept it

"But Im the lucky one" 

"Nu-Uh!" I say like a child he just chuckles

"Come on we should get dressed classes start in an hour. Class. Failing. No! Katniss its okay just tell him he will help you. But why would he not just break up with me I mean I do everything wrong in my life. Why has he stuck with me? "Are you okay Katniss?" Peeta questions I nod slightly but he see's right through it "Katniss" He says sternly
