I'm standing in the meadow. The vibrant green grass tickles my ankles as I slowly walk forward. My long dress floats around me in the breeze. I look up at the sky and it looks different, like it's happy, it seems wrong. I'm in District 12 but it's changed. It's alive. The air isn't filled with coal dust like it used to be and millions of flowers grow around me. Someone's hand slips into mine and I look down at the little girl holding my hand tightly with hers. She's from the seam alright; dusty grey eyes, brown hair and dark olive skin. She looks about five or six and reaches just below my waist meaning she's tall for her age. She looks like him. A lot.

"Mummy, mummy! Run quickly Daddy is counting, we've got to hide!" She says giggling and dragging me towards the woods.

"Ok, Ok I'm coming" I say running after her.

"Mum! Ruella! Wait for us!" We spin around to look at who it was. A tall boy and a smaller girl run towards us. The boy looks the same as Ruella, the little girl holding my hand. He's only about fourteen but he's over six foot. Just like his farther was when I first met him in the woods all those years ago.

But the girl is different; same dark skin but her hair is blonde and her eyes aren't grey. They're Prims eyes, not mine. They're a clear blue, bluer than the sky, bluer than the sea in district 4. Thinking of district 4 reminds me of Finnick. He did nothing wrong. They had no right to kill him. The Capitol. Pfft. The Capitol. The thought makes me shiver.

"Hurry up Finn and Prim! Your soooooo slow!" Ruella shouts to them.

We named them in memory of Finnick and Prim and Ruella after Rue, sweet little Rue. Sometimes I wish Rue was alive instead of me, she had her whole life ahead of her but now she's gone. Gone and never coming back. Never. But I stop my self from thinking about the bad things, I think of what I've got now. I have a family, People who love me. There's no capitol ruling over us, no Hunger Games, no peacekeepers. Life is good.

"Sorry Rue!" Finn mumbles.

"Ready or not, here I come!" Someone calls from far away. We all look at each other and Finn scoops Prim and Ruella up in his arms and runs towards the woods. I stand there shaking my head and laughing.

"You had better run Mrs Hawthorne!" Gale shouts, running towards me.

"Oh yeh, bet you can't catch me!"

"Bet I can!" He calls as I sprint off after the others. It's only a few seconds though before he's caught me and is spinning me around until I'm dizzy. He kisses me as he sets me back down on the ground. We both stare at each other. I wonder what he's thinking because for once I can't tell. He just stands there with his arms wrapped tightly round my waist and a smirk on his face. Before I know it he's pinned me to the ground with my arms above my head and is tickling my stomach.

"Ga-le-St-op –it – no-w!" I manage to choke out in between fits of laughter. But he doesn't stop. The tears stream down my face as I roll around and try to get him off me. I haven't laughed this much in a long time. Gale finally stops tickling me. He leans down and kisses me softly as I snake my hands through his hair. I couldn't go any where even if I wanted to. But we have to break apart for air. I laugh as he wipes the tears of my face with his thumb.

"I love you Catnip," He whispers

"Love you too Gale" He kisses me again but not for long as we are interrupted by ewwww's and awkward coughing.

We both sit up looking at our three kids that are now standing in front of us after getting bored of waiting for someone to find them. Finn pretends to be looking at something in the distance and Prim and Rue try hard to stop their giggling. I look at Gale and we all start laughing.

"Sorry!" We both say as we get up off the grass.

"So I guess this means I win!"

We all look towards the woods where a girl has just jumped down out of a tree and is brushing the dirt off her hands.

"It's not fair!" Ruella shouts while stamping her foot and folding her arms. "Just cos you're the oldest doesn't mean you can win every time Lily!" She huffs then sticks her tongue out at Lilly. She does the same back. Lilly looks exactly like me when I was her age but she's taller like the rest of our kids. Gale ruffles Ruellas hair which makes her calm down and she gives Lilly a hug. They argue a lot but I know Lilly would do anything for her little sisters, just like I would have for Prim.

"Race you back to the house!" Prim shouts already running away and Ruella follows her. Me, Gale, Finn and Lily all look at each other, they roll their eyes but we all run after the little ones catching them up easily.

I wake up. I'm not screaming like I normally am. No, I'm happy for once in my life. A smile spreads across my face and I feel like running round the streets telling the world how happy I am. Then I'm snapped back into reality and I realise where I am. I realise it's not Gales warm arms wrapped around me. It's Peeta's. I realise its not Gales body pressed against mine. It's Peeta's. I feel trapped. I need to get out. I need the freedom of the woods. I need Gale.

It was just a dream. But I still have time to change that don't I? I don't want it to be a dream. I want it to be real. I want to be with Gale. I want him to kiss me and tell me he loves me. I want to play hide and seek with my kids. I want to be the girl in the dream. Not the dull lifeless person I am now.

My name is Katniss Everdeen. I'm nineteen years old. I live in the newly built District 12. The capitol doesn't rule over us anymore. My sister is dead. I was the mockingjay and I lead the rebellion. I'm supposed to be in love with Peeta Mellark. But I'm not. I'm in love with Gale Hawthorne.

Ok well what do you think? pleaseee pleasee review because it will make me very happy!
