I Love You To The Moon And Back

Chapter 55: Back 2 School

I look up and catch a glimpse of Katniss, walking out of the cafeteria. Alone. This is my chance.
'Sorry, I need to go', I say. I push her away from me and run after Katniss. She walks out of the school and I grab her wrist.
'Hey! Wha-', she says. I drag her with me, to the back of the school.

Katniss P.O.V.

I'm dragged to the back of the school by Peeta. What's wrong?
'What are you doing?' I ask.
He stops walking and pushes me slowly against the wall.
'I just needed a little thing', he says and he crashes his lips onto mine. He deepens the kiss and pushes me further against the wall.

When we break apart I start go giggle. Peeta frowns.
'What?' he asks blushing. 'I don't know you like this', I say. He smiles. 'Sorry. Delly was talking to me and I just needed my girl', he says. I smile.
I lay my hands around his neck.
'That's sweet', I say. He pecks my cheek and then I remember what he just said.
'Delly was talking to you? About what?' I ask, hoping that my voice doesn't sound jealous. He shrugs. 'About her being Prom Queen', he says. I roll my eyes. Of course.
We stare at eachother for a while.

He slowly leans in and he connects our lips together. But just then the bell rings. We pull away and laugh together.
We walk into the school and go to class.
'You look exhausted', Finnick says, looking at us. We start to blush but don't say a thing. 

After school, we decide to go to the beach.
I lay down in the sand and the other girls come to me.
'Hi. How are you feeling?' Amy asks. I smile. 'I'm good. Thanks. And what about you? You must have been strartled', I say. She blushes. 'I'm okay', she says. I smile in relief. 

'So, are you up for Prom Queen?' Johanna asks. I burst out laughing. 'No, no, absolutely not', I say. She laughs too. 'Are you guys excited?' I ask. Amy and Annie nod. 'Yeah, I think it'll be so much fun', Annie says. I smile to her. 'I don't like these kind of things', Johanna says. Annie looks at her. 'But, you are coming, right?' she asks. Johanna chuckles. 'Yeah, I'll be there. There's no party when I'm not there', she says. I laugh and give her an high-five. Then Peeta walks over to us. He has his shirt already off. God, he's so hot. 

'And, what are the girls talking about?' he asks, plumping down next to me. 'Prom', Annie says. He nods and takes my hand, but I immediately take it back. 

'Ieuw, Peeta, you're all wet', I say. He laughs and so does Johanna. 'I'm sorry, baby, Finnick wanted me in, and yeah', he says. I smile and place a light kiss on his forehead. But my reflexes are too late. Peeta has grabbed both my left arm and leg and lifts me up, and starts to walk towards the ocean. 

'Peeta, no, no, no! I still  have my clothes on! Don't!' I scream. 'I don't care!' he yells back, before throwing me in the cold water. When I come up, he stands there, smirking at me with his arms folded. 
'Oh no, look at you', he says, pulling me up.
'I'll get you', I say. He chuckles. 'I'm serious. You should sleep with one eye opened tonight', I say. Now he looks serious. I walk over to him and lean in to kiss him, but as soon as he closes his eyes, I start splashing water at him. He soons gets back on me and pushes me into the water. I'm laughing uncontrolled and I just hope I don't look like an idiot.

Peeta pulls me up and holds me closer to him. 'Maybe we should take those wet clothes off of you', he whispers. I smile devilishly at myself.
'Maybe we should', I say seductively. I see Peetas Adam's apple go up and down as he swallows to keep himself calm.
'Or not', I say, pushing him back into the water.
He comes up and looks at me. 
'Little devil', he says. I just laugh.

'Everything going well here?' Finnick suddenly asks. I didn't even know he was here.
'Yeah', I say. He smiles devilishly. I know what he thinks. Finnick with his stupid mind. I roll my eyes. Then I see Annie waving at me, standing with all the other girls. I walk over to them.

'What's up?' I ask. She smiles at me.
'I thought, since we talked about prom, maybe we can go dress shopping together', she says. I think about it. Prom is in two weeks. Graduation in three weeks and then we have summer break. Then I'm out of high school. Then I can go to college. It makes me scared to think about it.

'Katniss?' Johanna asks. I come back into reality and look at them.
'Uh, yeah, sounds fun', I say. They smile.

We have lots of fun the rest of the afternoon. We eat together at Finnick's and then we head home.

'Wanna watch a movie?' Peeta asks. I smile. 'Yeah', I say. We cuddle up together on the couch and turn on the TV. But soon, I feel my eyes getting heavier and I find myself drifting away.

Peeta P.O.V.

I wrap my arms tighter around Katniss. I smile. She makes me smile. I love her so much. In three weeks, we'll have summer break, and I'm just really afraid she'll leave after that. She'll probably go to some good college, since she's smart enough, but I'm not. I don't know if I'll go to a college anyway. Maybe I'll just start working. At the bakery. My brothers probably won't take it over, but I want to. Baking is the one thing that I love, next to painting and Katniss of course.

I just don't want her to go. Of course I want her to take her changes, but I also want her with me, you know?

Just now, I realize that she has fallen asleep. I smile again. She's so cute.
I sigh deeply, but hold myself halfway through. Katniss is a light sleeper, and I don't want to wake her.

I look at the TV, where the movie is still playing. She was probably very tired.

We stay like this for a while, but when the movie is done, I lift her up and carry her to the bedroom. I lay her in bed and crawl in next to her.

'Sleep well, my love', I whisper quietly.
