         I first realized I was screaming when Peeta grabbed my wrist and assured me that I was okay and that nothing would happen to me. "Katniss, it's just me, Peeta!", he said soothingly to me. This, of course, reminded me about the nights on the train when I woke up screaming in terror. Peeta had come to my room to make sure I felt safe. Ever since the war I have been dreaming about Boggs and Jackson and Finnick and all the deaths from the war.  I remembered that before the war, the words "Always", haunted me and that I would probably never hear that same word in the same way again. But now me and Peeta are together again with 2 happy kids (well sometimes happy) and I have heard those words again. I stopped screaming because I had woken up Bear, my child, in bed. The house was quiet except for the soft sound of Bear whimpering in the other room.

         When I went into Bears room Theodore had already gone in there to make sure his brother is okay. Theodore is my other child and is Prim's age when I first went into the Hunger Games. He is 12 years old. He is old enough to be in the Hunger Games..................good thing there is no more Hunger Games.
