In the Hunger Games, after Peeta and Katniss were the only ones alive, it was announced that the change in rules had been revoked, and there could only be one victor. Instead of killing Peeta, Katniss proposed they eat poisonous berries to kill themselves so that the Capitol would not have any victors.
But at the last second, they were both declared winners of the Hunger Games. Throughout the competition, Katniss played along with the love story so she could increase her chances of winning, though secretly she was confused about her true feelings for Peeta and Gale, her best friend who was back home in District Peeta, whose love for Katniss was never an act, was broken-hearted at the realization that Katniss was merely pretending to love him for the sake of the competition.
Since the Games, he has been acting very distant and cold toward her, and she feels guilty for the way she treated him. Gale has also been treating her differently since she returned home. Nothing is the same for Katniss since winning the Games. Haymitch tells her that in order to truly appease Snow and Panem, she and Peeta will have to get married.
As she goes to sleep that night, Katniss realizes there are potentially worse husbands than Peeta and ponders what their future together will be like. The next day, Katniss rudely snaps at Effie, the escort assigned to District 12, and then goes to sit outside to cool off. Peeta joins her and apologizes to her for the way he's been acting lately. He admits his jealousy of Gale and asks if they can go back to being friends; Katniss knows she needs to be more than just friends with him to keep everyone alive.
Despite the grave situation she's in, Katniss enjoys being on good terms with Peeta again , especially as their first stop on the Victory Tour, District 11, will be a difficult one. District 11 is the home of Rue, the young girl tribute whom Katniss allied herself with during the Games, and Thresh, the respectable boy tribute whom Katniss and Peeta wished they could have befriended.
At their stop in District 11, an old man in the crowd whistles the mockingjay tune that Katniss and Rue used to signal to each other in the arena. Katniss is shocked to see the audience press their three middle fingers to their lips and extend them to her, a gesture in District 12 that represents goodbye, thanks, or deep respect.
Katniss and Peeta are immediately taken off stage but not before they see the old man shot and killed.
