Sleep. Thats all I want right now. To get one last good sleep before the reaping. But alas, no such luck. I honestly don't know why I'm freaking out. I'm sixteen and lucky enough to not have to have signed up for tesserae. But I am. I turn onto my side, and see my big brother, Jax, snoring his head off. Maybe thats why I cant sleep. Or maybe I'm worried he will get drawn. No. It's me. I'm worried about me. I know that sounds selfish. But I am. Every kid in District 12 is probably not sleeping tonight. I think, that if I were to get drawn, I would just die on the spot. Not having to torture my family, just die on the ground. Fall out of my chair at the reaping, and then they won't have to suffer through watching me die. That's when I think about my love. Alexis. I don't know what I would do. We're still a secret of course. People that love differently in Panem don't typically make it very far. Even though I already knew that, the thought finishes me off. I won't get a wink of sleep tonight.
