Lev says i’ve been crying in my sleep too, and i don’t think i’ve ever done that before.

places to be alone

in a gothic cathedral
lying in bed, listening to summer rain
a hot bubble bath on a wintery day
a bookstore or a library
pine forest, neck craned upwards at trees against the sky
natural history museum
sunrise from a hilltop, with only the birds for company
near a crackling fireplace with a good book and a teacup
in the grass at sunset, watching the clouds and the...

Peeta: so call me maybe
