I remember the first time I realized I loved Katniss but that's not

what I want to think about right now all I want to think about is

how she's in love with Peeta, how somehow I knew all a long that

she would pick him but it still hurts. He hasn't been her hunting

partner for years; he's not the one that took care of her family. He

doesn't know Katniss like I do, and it's hard to Imagine that he

could possibly love her as much as I do. She's the only thing I want

and she doesn't want me. My heart aches when I think about all the

times that Katniss and Peeta we're smooching and all of Panem

was hoping that the star crossed lovers could be together .while I

was just letting the hatred build up inside of me. Katniss was

supposed to be mine. We belong together and she is ruining that

over a fake romance that was designed to make the county feel

sorry for them.

I just can't understand. It never was real. Was it?

I try to sleep but all I see behind my closed eyelids is Katniss with

her smooth olive skin, her long dark hair and her soft pink lips. All

I can think about is how much I love her and can't, and I won't live

without her.

The next morning I awake covered in sweat.

Nightmares of Katniss being tortured still fresh in my brain.

I awake with the sound of her screams still fresh in my ears. I can't

tell if it was something my mind had created or if it was something

that really happened. I feel sick to my stomach and the last thing I

think before I fall back asleep is, Katniss...
