Summary
Katniss wipes away her emerging tears with the back of her hand, still holding the dandelion with an ironclad grip. “ It’s okay.” She partly mumbles through her tears.
“ Do you want to be boyfriend and girlfriend?” The boy says so quickly that it comes out as a jumbled mess.
“ What?” Katniss is stunned.
“ My brother says that if you want someone to be your girlfriend, you have to give her something nice.” The boy explains, but it just makes Katniss even more confused.
“ You don’t have to.” The boy says shyly, his hands planted like an anchor on the wood that separates the tarmac from the sand, “ I understand you’re sad.” He continues.
Katniss looks at the boy’s warm cheeks and the dandelion in between her fingertips and feels a comforting heat in her chest. One she hadn’t felt since her dad died.
“ Sure.” She answers then. “ I’ll be your girlfriend.”
The boy’s eyes brightened even more than they turned to an almost white, and Katniss remembered thinking that there wasn’t a thing prettier.
_A ghost from Katniss's past comes back to haunt her.

Summary
“ Fuck you.” Ronan spits, and Parrish laughs; it rumbles the ground below them.
“ Do you believe in magic?” Ronan finds himself saying, and then he wakes up.
He wakes up to the sun shining through his window, not unlike the bright light from his dreams, and he turns over in his bed to catch the time from his alarm clock. It reads 10 am, and Ronan just then realizes that this meant that for the first time in months, he had slept through the whole night.
_Ronan Lynch and Adam Parrish discover that the only cure for their insomnia is each other.

Summary
“ Well.” Will looks up and springs Nico into action once again, “ Who died?”
Nico sits in his high wooden chair, gripping his coffee, and he blinks. He thinks back to the conversation he had with Hazel on the phone.
That is the question, isn’t it?

Summary
“ It just seems that you’re a bit…” Lupin tilts his head a bit, and glances down at Sirius’s dirty face, his soiled uniform,- “ -Stretched a bit thin.”
“ ‘You saying that I’m a bad parent?”
“ No! Not bad maybe a bit… unqualified?” He says like it’s better. He smiles at Sirius, his heart beats fast again and he can’t tell if it’s because of anger or because of something else.
