It's been a couple of weeks since i've seen Prim, the really Prim. I keep think of Prim. I miss my little duck. Greasy Sae says that Peeta is back but i'm scared to go over to him, well actually i've thought of it a couple times but they hold me back. The memories. I shiver as I remember Peeta choking me.
I remember the day Haymitch came over to tell me I had company. I was so excited thinking that it would be my mother, or even Peeta, nope. It was Gale. My ex bestfriend. the man who's idea blew up my sister. How can I ever forgive him? He left for 2 a couple weeks ago.
"Katniss?"
I turn, thinking I hear Prim but it's someone else. Someone i've never met before. A little girl, maybe a younger version of Madge. I stop myself before the image in my mind pops up, of her being burned up. No knows what happened to her and her family, but no one ever saw them again. So everyone just excepted that they didnt make it.
I look at the little girl and smile, "do I know you?" The little girl reaches for me and drags me to Gale's old house. I stop right before she lets me in. "What're we doing here?"
I realize she is a younger Madge as she speaks, "just come on Kat, I have to show you something!"
I couldnt tell if her tone was scared or excited, maybe both. I follow her into Gales old house and imediately feel scared, uncofortable. But not because I'm in Gale's house , more because of the site I see. Gale, and Prim. It hurts seeing her. Especially in the same damn room as Gale. Then I realize that Madge was scared when she told me to come in. In a swift moment, Gale raises his hand and slaps Prim in the face, I run toward him as he reaches for me and starts to choke me. Gale suddenly turns in Finnick, only for a moment, long enough for me to have him stuck in my memory for a while. Finnick turns into Peeta quickly and im back in 13 getting choked by him but this time no one stops him. I block out all the crap and names hes calling me.
I wake up screaming, yelling out for Prim and Peeta, even though i am terrible scared at him right now. i feel arms on my own arm and i stiffen, as i turn over and pin the person on the ground next to my bed.
He looks better, as he smirks and smiles, " hey Katniss," Peeta says.
I jump up and widen my eyes.
