*HUGE DISCLAIMER* I WROTE THIS WHEN I WAS 12YRS OLD, SO EXCUSE GRAMMAR AND CRINGINESS
What if.....?
Katniss has finally returned to District 12 both haunted and shattered by the past knowing the peace gained does not supply her with security and ha...
"You've been lying to me. Every one of you. I want to know now what's going on here. I don't want lies any more!"
He looks at me for a moment and then shifts his eyes to Haymitch. He says with his voice overlapped with hurt
"This is the arena again. You two are playing a game. You have been hiding things from me, I could tell straight away when I got back"
Haymitch defends that point even though it is true
"It's never been like that Peeta...."
But Peeta doesn't let him finish but instead he interrupts
"It's exactly like that. It always has been. Not any more. I want the truth"
My heart is beating extremely loud now, the thumping is deafening to my eardrums. He looks at Sophie now and asks
"Who's baby is that?"
Everyone remains silent including me. I've never seen him this mad other than when he is under the cloud of his hijacking. At first I question that but his pupils remain normal and his eyes still contain their blue original colour. After a few minutes still no one has spoken he leaves. He doesn't say anything but walks out. I glance back at Haymitch and Effie before following him, calling his name. When I reach him he is halfway to his house. He doesn't turn around but instead ignores me. I grab his arm and pull him to face me. He looks at me with slight anger and hurt still remaining on his face. Suddenly I have been wiped of my words and I stand before him speechless. What am I supposed to say? The truth? It looks like I'm not going to have an option. He says to me
"Tell me the truth Katniss. Please"
His voice is cracking. Tears form in his eyes. I hurt him, I took the secrets too far. I locked him out. And I can't help but slip the words from my mouth
"She's mine.... We'll sort of. Her names Sophie... Peeta I'm so so sorry...."
There is only two things visible in his eyes at this moment that aren't tears. Realisation and Hurt. I open my mouth to defend myself but before I can continue he interrupts me
"So you lied to me? About everything? You never were honest with me when I opened up to you and showed you my life.....You lied"
I feel my chest ache as the guilt settle in .I struggle to contain my tears as they constantly threaten to spill. I tell him
"I'm so so sorry..:"
He yanks his arm from my grasp and says
"I'm done with sorry's Katniss. If you can't trust me then it's over. Whatever 'this' is is over.... I'm done"
I try to grab his arm again. I plead for him listen I can't lose him again
"Peeta please.."
He pulls away viciously and says angrily now
"No! I'm done with lies......I need to figure this out.... I'm done Katniss, it's over. This game of lies is over"
And with those final words he storms off leaving me standing alone, broken.I take a moment to mentally scream, my voice echoing in my head. I tell myself to pull it together, that now is not the time to break down. Not when I have to return to Sophie. I will wait I tell myself wait until that moment when Sophie is asleep and the world is quiet in the darkness of the night and then I will let go. Then I will scream and break down and cry. When I'm alone. After a few minutes I walk inside to Haymitch and Effie who stand waiting for me to tell them what Happened. I just sit down in the armchair silently. One perfect tear slips from my eye and done my cheek.

I have to say something to them, or else they will just wait for one. I exhale a deep and shaky breath before speaking. And it only takes me two words to say it. My hoarse voice is hard to understand but anyone could easily make out the words
"It's over....."
It is over...........Everything'sover.
