It's impossible to completely ignore the feel of his fingers tangled in her braid. His hand had been comforting. It's still comforting to have it there, even if he should probably move his hand from her head. Though he tries to be casual about moving his hand away, it's absence doesn't go unnoticed either. She doesn't think he's doing anything inappropriate. Or has been for that matter. The inappropriate actions that had occurred between them, the ones that had happened yesterday, those are her fault. Not his. He hasn't done anything wrong by her.
She's starting to wonder if he really is this good a person. His words have said otherwise, that he's guilty for as many horrible things as she is. His actions say more to her. The way he seems to take care of her even though he doesn't owe her anything speaks volumes to Katniss. It's going to take a lot to be able to pay him back some day.
"I don't pretend well," she grumbles, a hint of the sullen girl returning in her words and on her face. It would have been better for everyone if she could pretend well. Katniss can't change who she is, no matter how much she tries. Still frowning, she looks towards the door. He's probably right about going back. "No matter how hard I try."
