[He didn't want to die. He didn't want to be trapped in the Capitol. He was scared and he wanted a way out. But he didn't want to show that to Katniss.]
It's okay.
[He takes her gently by the shoulders. He didn't realize how much he hurt her, the guilt he'd put on her. She doesn't deserve that. He doesn't want to hurt her anymore.]
