Chapter 1

I was 99.9% sure I was dreaming . The reasons I was almost certain was because I was staring in to the eyes of my little duck , Prim. She was a great distance away from me, sitting in a small meadow, too far for her to hear me yelling for her. She was just sitting there, staring at the ground. My mouth dropped as I scream with complete terror . She slightly looked up at the sky, caught a parachute, set it in her lap, and stared at me. She looked at me with painfully sorrow eyes as the parachute exploded in her lap. I shoved my hands over my eyes screaming , just like I did when rue died. 'Rue' I thought, every memory of her flashed through my head. I start to cry, I lost rue, I lost my dad, I lost cinna, I lost prim, I lost everyone. I look up at the trees behind where prim was sitting moments ago, to see gale. He's sitting in the largest tree, right behind where my little duck sat, he saw me. He looked down , 'he must be feeling horrible' I thought . Then it happened. He looked up at me with the most sinister, scary, evil smirk. He did it on purpose.

...

I wake up screaming . The blankets are all on the floor, I'm sweating, crying, screaming, and sobbing . "Shhhh , shhh Katniss I'm here.. Shhh.. It was just a dream , shhh it's okay." Peeta always knew how to help me cope with the nightmares . "Shhh, see everything's okay, it was just a dream .. Do you wanna tell me about it ?" He asked me while ever so lightly brushing my hair out of my face. "Gale killed her. He did it on purpose. She didn't do anything ," I pause to cry because the thought of it kills me ," he smirked after he did it , he killed my little duck." "No , no , Katniss, Gale would never, sweetie it was a accident , he didn't know. Katniss it was all a dream." Peeta reassures me. My breathing and heart rate begin to slow down to normal again. He's so sweet to me. After he calms me down , he lightly kisses my cheek and cuddles with me in bed. These nightmares will never go away. But Peeta will always be there for me.. Haymitch was right . I could live a thousand lifetimes and still not deserve him.
