I wake up and find Rochelle, Effie, Haymitch, the head Gamemaker Mr Lynsander Rankin's by my bed,

"Oh it was just a bad dream!" I say very quietly feeling relieved but then Todd walks in holding drinks for everyone,

"Oh, it wasn't a bad dream!" I say loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Hey honey, how are you?" Effie says quietly,

I sit there in the quiet of the room as if it was just me by myself, not talking to anyone.

"Here Effie" Todd says as he passes her a cup. "Right everyone drink up!" He says loudly.

Everyone starts to drink up but Todd stands there laughing,

"Night, night everyone!" It seems that whatever was in my injection he put in their drinks so all of them fall asleep instantly.

"Why did you do that?" I ask fearfully

"They wouldn't have let me talk to you if they knew… In case I hurt their little Mockingjay!"

"Oh… so what was it that you wanted to say?"

"I wondered who you wanted to bring back to life because you're a proper victor and all."

"Well I think you and Rochelle would get it in one guess…"

"Who?"

"You know…"

"Say his name," He cackles at me,

"I can't!"

"Go on say it!"

"No!" I say with a few tears dripping down my cheeks.

"Well I want you to know that I don't think you and your friend can bring him back because I am still alive"

I look at him and my mouth drops open,

"I thought you would cry!" He says

"To be honest… I don't know what to do right now!"

He comes over to me but I shy back into my pillow, still sat up,

"Alright, alright I was only going to comfort you"

"Comfort me…! You don't even know what comfort means!" I shout

"I do so! Look!" He says as he hugs me, I try to shy back but I can't get out of his strong arms. Something about his hugs reminds me of Alex so I well up.

"Sorry if you miss Alex"

"You… Sorry?"

"Yes, me sorry"

"Your so evil but yet so kind!"

"Well don't get used to the nice because it's going when your better!"

"Sure, at least you'll be normal again"

"Right, No more Mr Nice Guy for anyone!"

"Whatever you horrible idiot" I laugh,

"So I am nice to you and your horrible back… well I could say what I think but I haven't!"

"Say it then!"

"Okay, I am glad he died… It taught you not to say No to the Careers! And it was getting boring the love story thing!"

"You weren't there through most of it!" I shout back,

"I was sick of him coming up to me and telling me to go away from you as if I was a mass murder!"

"Well I didn't know about any of that! It was between you and him!"

"He kept telling me to stop being nice and charming to you!" He says as he lowers his voice,

"But why?"

"I think it might have been because he saw me as a threat to your relationship with him…" He says rather quickly

"Oh you're onto something there!" I say with exclamation

"Before he died he said that it was okay for me to love someone else if I was happy with it because he didn't want me to be alone"

"So you're saying that he knew he would die and we would be left!"

"I think so"

"Oh, okay… so that means what?"

"Don't ask me, I don't know!"

"I think that means he wants me to love you!"

"We hate each other!"

"Well let's start to get along…"

"And we'll go from there" I join in with him. He looks me in the eyes and I look at him back but Haymitch wakes up,

"Doctors, doctors get him out of here, he spiked our drinks!" Haymitch screams

"Alright, alright I'm going, I'm going!"

Todd walks out and gives me wink.

"What was that all about?" Haymitch asks

"I, I, I… I really don't know!" I say as I hang my head in shame that I would even think of befriending a Career or anything like that. But I didn't realise then that I would be seeing a lot more of Todd and needing his care.
