wayhe was standing there in a crisp ivoy suit to match my simple yet beautiful gown crafted by the one and only cinna.i was walking down the aisle arm and arm wih haymitch when i noticed what song was playing

Deep in the meadow under the willow a bed of grass a soft green pillow

lay down your head and close your eyes and when again they open the sun will rise

here its safe and here its warm here the daisys guard you from every harm

here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true here is the place were i love you

Deep in the meadow hidden far away a cloak of leaves a moonbeam ray

forget your woes and let your troubles lay and when again its morning theyll wash away

here its safe and here its warm and here the daisys guard you from every harm

here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true here is the place were I LOVE YOU

i am startled by the flood of emotions that hit me"haymitch this is the song i sang to rue when she died in the 74th games"i whisper as tears begin to stream down my face probably washing away my makeup.i would wipe them away but not without it looking suspcious. i try to comfort myself dearly wishing i was with peeta right at this moment but then i realize i dont have to wish for that anymore after today i will be mrs.Peeta Mellark. i seatch for hte blue eyes that i can count on to reel me back into reality every night when the nightmares run rampid in my sleep torturing me from both my experiences in the games and in the rebelion. as i journey closer to the aisle i see peeta smiling with his pearly whites the first thing i remember seeing when i went tracking him in the 74th games after the rule revesion. i walk up onto the altar, peeta stares at me with concern washing through his ocean blue eyes wondering if the tears are from joy or sadness so i just smile and mouth "ill tell you later" the ceremony goes smoother than anyone could have hoped for, then its tine to say our vows me and peeta wrote them so i didnt have to say to much in front of a crowd im sti

l not as smooth as peeta is with words. "peeta you first" the priest says as peeta looks up at me "katniss i was in love with you since i was well when i first

saw you people may say peeta havent any other girls made an impression on you and i tell them yes but no one has made a lasting one like you"as he gestures for the ring i see it isnt exyravagant or even a diamond its the iridescent pearl from the quarter quell."katniss do you love me real or not real"he asks and tears flood from my face and i tell him "real"
