A/N: I'm so, so sorry its taken me this long to get this chapter up. I never imagined that I'd be this busy this summer. I'll try to make sure you this doesn't happen again. I'm aiming for one chapter a week now, but since school's starting this week, I can't promise that I can't keep that going. I hope this chapter was worth the wait.

I woke up the next morning and everything from previous day flooded back to me. Oh, god. Why did I say that? Why did I say we through? I need Peeta; I can't lose him. I kept my crying low so I wouldn't wake Alina and kept saying to myself that we can't be over.

I jumped out of bed and ran down the hall. I checked all the rooms on my floor till I found Peeta in one of the spare bedrooms, sleeping. I jumped on the bed and shook him awake.

"Peeta," I screamed and he awakened. "I'm so sorry about what I said! I didn't mean it! Don't leave me!"

"Katniss-"

"I need you! Always and forever. I love you so much."

I put his hand on my belly.

"If you won't for me, stay for Aza. She needs you! I need you! I-"

He silenced me with a kiss then hugged me close.

"Thank god." He said. "I was afraid that you meant it, that I had lost you."

"Never." I hugged him tighter. "I love you too much. And you you're nothing like Gale. I said that because I was upset about everything going on. I'm so sorry."

"No, its my fault. I'll apologize to Alina, I promise."

My tears slowed.

"Thank You."

He pulled back to look me in the eyes and wiped my tears away.

"Are you ok now? Are we?" He asked.

"Yeah…for now."

He hugged me close again.

We relaxed in bed for awhile. I laid in his arms while he kissed me and said sweet things to me. We even talked to Aza. We've seen couples on TV and supposedly she can hear us. I don't know if its true or not, but it was still fun talking to her.

We were like that till we finally decided to start our day at about noon. We went downstairs to eat lunch. Peeta apologized to Alina, just like he said he would. Alina, being the good hearted and kind person she is, accepted it graciously. Despite everything that has gone wrong, I was at peace. At least as much as I could be.

I called Cinna and told him he could bring Jake back and join us for lunch. Haymitch also made a surprise visit and joined us. He didn't say so, but I knew he just wanted to see how I was handling the news about my mom. I tried not to think about it. Stressing over it wasn't good for me or Aza.

Later that day, Cinna had left but the rest of us were in the TV room. Peeta and I sat on the couch. Jake sat on his lap and Alina sat on what remained of mine as we watched TV.

That was when Prim barged through the door.

"Katniss-" She froze when she saw Ali (Alina). "Who's she?"

"I'm sorry, Miss, she-" Diamond began.

"No, its fine, Diamond. Please leave us to talk." I told her.

She nodded and left. I turned back to Prim.

"Prim, what are you doing here?"

Since Mama's been arrested, the Peacekeeper had to send me here so you could take care of me. Now who's she?"

"Who's the girl, Sissy?" Ali asked curiously.

Prim's eyebrows went up in surprise when she called me 'Sissy'.

"This is my sister, Prim. Prim, this is-"

I stopped when Prim grabbed Ali and pulled her off me.

"Don't call her 'Sissy' again! She's my sister, not yours."

"Prim!"

She turned back to me with tears in her eyes.

"You're my sister." She said.

I gave her a hug.

"Of course I am." I told her.

"So, who is she?"

"I'm Alina Snow." Ali answered.

Prim jumped out of our hug and in front of me.

"Stay away! We've been hurt enough by you Snows."

I hated to see Ali so hurt. I gave her a hug then turned back to Prim.

"She's nothing like that. She's good person, Prim. She's practically a sister to me."

"Are you really replacing me with a Snow." she asked softly.

"I could never replace you."

I gave her a hug and then the three of sat back down. Prim sat on my lap so Ali couldn't. I filled Prim in on everything that has happened since I came to the Capitol, from meeting Ali to discovering Aza's gender.

The next couple of days went by quickly. I was happy Prim was here, but she didn't particularly like Alina. She'd ignore Alina and try to keep us separated. Its just going to take Prim some time to adjust to me having another little sister.

When Friday came around, we were invited (a.k.a. forced) to go to see Mom's execution. I was told that I could even talk to her beforehand, but the others couldn't.

That's one day I'll never forget.
