'And I wonder if I ever cross your mind/ for me it happens all the time' –Need You Now, Lady Antebellum

She needed him. She always denied it, but she did need him. He's just a friend, he's just a friend, he's just a friend. How many times had Katniss lied to herself? How many times had she avoided looking at the truth that, now she looked at it straight on, was easy to see?

Just a friend, just a friend, just a friend.

He's nothing more than just a friend, she tells herself. She's known Gale for years, and she loves him like a brother.

Just a friend, just a friend, just a friend.

There's more to it than that. She runs as fast as she can, running in no particular direction, but she is aware that she is running towards the woods. She spots him, and smiles. Because, when she runs into his arms, it feels like coming home.
