She came here with me.

Chapter 33

I wake up screaming. Cato holds me tight.

"Shh, it was just a dream, you are okay." Cato says hugging me even tighter. 

I calm down a bit. I know it was just a dream but the thought of our children going into the games haunts me. I never want anyone to go threw what I went threw. The game are a living hell, but then you live with the guilt afterwards. No one deserves to be sent to that arena. 

I check the alarm clock and it's 10:30 in the morning. Cato and I get dressed and get ready to go back to District 2. 

I never wanted to be back home more than this in my entire life.

Cato and I eat break fast with Enobaria, Brutus, Pearl, Steph and Madix. 

Breakfast was pretty silent this morning. Pearl sheds a few tears. I will miss her. Steph and Madix look sad. We will see them again at their wedding but they have done so much for us, that I can't thank them enough for. Brutus and Enobaria live in District 2 and are coming back with us, but if it wasn't for them I don't think I would be alive and here today. I am forever grateful for everything they have done for me and Cato. 

We say our goodbyes to Steph and Madix, we leave the Penthouse and go down to the train station. There is the train ready to pick us up. I take one last look at the Capitol. I look at Cato and take his hand. He looks down at me and kisses me. There is all these Capitol people waving goodbye at us. I wake at them. Enobaria, Brutus, Cato, Pearl and myself are on the train. Pearl comes back with us to District 2 to show us our new houses, give us our millions and make sure we are settled. And then we would have to say our goodbyes to her till next year. 

We sit on the train and eat lunch. Cato and I go over to an other cart that is meant for sitting in. 

"Cato?" I ask him.

"Yes babe?" He replies.

"Do you think we'll be okay?" I ask him.

He pulls me in for a hug and a kiss.

"I think we'll be okay." Cato says. 

We hug for a bit not saying anything

Cato then breaks the silence, "I can't believe you are going to be turning 18 in a few days!"

I then remember he is right. My birthday is on Friday, it's Sunday.

I am so glad I'll be spending my birthday back at home, with my family, with Enobaria and Brutus,and with the love of my life Cato. 

I fall asleep when Cato and I are sitting down. I know I am safe with him. Plus we've left the Capitol, and I'm going to go back home and be at peace.
