She couldn't help but feel horrible, here she was with Finnick and her best friend back but Peeta was still gone; at least on the inside.

"Let today be the day we promise never to give up, never to give in and make a new Panem; where the districts are free to share the fruits of their labors and not fight with another for scraps!" The crowd erupted in cheers as president Coin spoke.
"We are one people, one army, one voice. Because today is our new beginning, because today we have rescued our victors and tomorrow Panem!" Finnick pulled her to his side and gently kissed her lips, a blush crept across her cheeks as he did so. He pulled away and they both clapped, for the first time in a long time she felt strong,
