[ peeta watches her, a little skeptical of her sudden acceptance. the things that she had done in the past - sure, she did remember (she would never forget), but she was never once think katniss owed her anything for the things she did. regardless of the trouble she got from her mother for it. regardless of the sting of a hand on her face. she would never want anyone to feel like they owed her for doing what she would do for the sake of doing.
she would rather katniss want company than feel the company is owed.
so, she hesitates before she takes a seat. she places her tray down. ]
I understand.
[ as much as she could, at least. she tried to be social, fit in. it wasn't hard. she was exactly what everyone wanted her to be. ]
