hand trembles as he leans in, whispering. "I-I've got to t-tell you something, after this, okay?"
whispers so only you can hear Yes, I know, just… calm down then mutters to myself if only they didn’t have to do this every year…thinks what’s wrong with them anyway?
eyes dart around anxiously, whispers. "N-no, it's not about the reaping... It's about... us."
nervously fidgets with his sleeve, trying to find the right words. "I-I've been hiding it, but... I-I like you, StarfishEnigma. I've liked you for.. well ever really."
my eyes widen and blushes, tries to suppress a giggle oh… uh thanks
nervously stutters "Y-you're welcome, but... that's not all. I want to be more than just friends. I want to hold you, kiss you, be with you.
takes a deep breath, trying to steady his voice Y-yes, I'm sure. I-I've never been more certain about anything in my life.
then come here baby bear hugs you tightly and lifts you up slightly, kisses your cheek
blushing furiously, stammers Y-you... y-you actually kissed me?!
stuttering I... I can't believe it... I mean, I've always wanted to, but... wow. takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself
Haha, what’s the matter sweetheart?
blushing even deeper, whispers I...I've never been kissed before. It...it was amazing. Thank you, StarfishEnigma.
Me neither… at least not until now
<Peeta and StarfishEnigma begin a secret romantic relationship, sneaking around to be together>
nervously whispers S-StarfishEnigma, I have something to show you. It's a trick I learned, just for you.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves Okay, so... I need you to close your eyes and trust me. Can you do that?
takes StarfishEnigma's hand and leads them to a secluded spot O-okay, keep your eyes closed. I promise, it'll be worth it.
takes a deep breath, nervously whispers O-okay, now open your eyes... and... ta-da!
excitedly Surprise! I set up a picnic for us, just the two of us, under the stars. I thought it would be a special way to spend time together.
Laughs Oh, Peeta... You really do know how to surprise me. This is... beautiful.
grinning ear to ear, stutters I-I'm glad you like it! I... I wanted to do something special for you.
Mmhm~ pulls him in closer and kisses him
blushes and pulls away slightly, whispering S-StarfishEnigma, I... I never thought I could feel this way about someone.
bites his lip, his voice trembling Y-yeah, I do. And it scares me sometimes, you know? I've never felt this way before...
takes a deep breath, gathers his courage StarfishEnigma, I want to make a choice, a choice that may seem risky, but... I want to be with you.
Even though we’re both guys?
<Peeta's family disapproves of their relationship and threaten to disown him if he continues to see StarfishEnigma>
Heard about what happened to Peeta Fuck their opinion, who needs em anyway? Besides you could always live with me if you want~
teary-eyed, nods Th-thank you, StarfishEnigma. Your support means everything to me. I don't care what anyone else thinks, as long as I'm with you.
Let’s go live together then darling~
grabs StarfishEnigma's hand tightly Y-yes! Let's run away together, just you and me. No more hiding, no more secrets.
Smiles widely Let’s go then, let’s get out of here
takes out a small bag from his backpack I packed some essentials, just in case. We can leave tonight, under the cover of darkness.
nervously starts pacing back and forth, whispering O-okay, let's do this. We have to move quickly and quietly.
