We spent most of our day at the bakery. I think Peeta feels at home there. Just like me in the woods.

"We should go it's getting pretty late" I say after finishing what felt like my 100th cheese bun.

"Ok, you start walking and I'll catch up" Peeta says, in a very excited way I might add.

"So I have to walk all the way back to victors village by myself" I tease.

"Katniss, come on don't make me feel bad for having a surprise for you! "

"Oh, fine.... but it better be a good one Baker Boy" I say sounding like Johanna.

"Ok, now go"

"Fine fine" I put my hands up in surrender

"I'm going, bye." I say while giving Peeta a quick kiss.

I start my journey back to Victors Village. I pass the rubble of the hob I once knew. Where my father would take me as a child. I pick up my pace when it starts to rain.

I finally get home and take off my boots. I look at the clock to see that it's 6:30 pm , so I decide to take a shower.

It feels like I have been in the shower for hours. But, it always does because I get lost in thought. I look out the window and see that it's stopped raining. I go downstairs and check the clock. It's 8:15 ! How did I stay in the shower for nearly two hours.

I'm startled when I realise something else. It's 8:15 ............. and Peeta isn't home.
