I've been up, I've been down
I've been so damn lost since you're not around
I've been reggae and calypso
Won't you save me San Francisco?

It was funny how she had changed so much in so short a time.

Sometimes she thought about the Games and Peeta and she wondered how she could've not loved him.

Sometimes she wonders how he could love her.

It was funny how they were so messed up, they were hardly the perfect couple, but in some ways, they were.

She imagined her life if she had married Gale or if she hadn't married at all. Where would she be now, if things had happened differently? What would she be like? Would she have changed at all?

On bad days, the answer would be no, she hadn't changed. She still had nightmares, she still feared for her children (Not because of the threat of the Hunger Games, but how she could explain it to them, what people would say. She wanted them to know the truth.), she still missed Prim and Rue and everyone who had died because of her.

But the truth was, she needed Peeta, probably more than she cared to admit. The pain and the nightmares and the fears were still there and neither of them were the people they had been, but they had each other.

It might not have been much, but it was something.
