"Marvel. Are you alright?" my mother asked.

How the hell could I be alright.

I was going into the Hunger Games tomorrow.

"Perfect." I lied.

I went to see Chrysanthemum.

She's the only thing that is holding me back.

"Marvel!" she said when I finally reached her house.

She jumped off of her porch to hug me.

"What's the matter?" she whispered in my ear.

"Tomorrow."

Her arms dropped.

"No." She shook her head.

She started crying.

"You promised!"

"My father is forcing me to Chrysanthemum!"

"I don't care. Say no! Don't do it! Please. I love you."

"What?"

She brushed the tears off of her face.

"I love you, Marvel. And you can't go. Please. I beg of you."

Her tears were falling off of her face and started to make a puddle on the dirt under us.

I grabbed her arms.

And held on to her.

For what seemed like forever.

I couldn't let go.

I put my hand on her hair.

I couldn't control my emotions.

I started crying.

"Marv?"

"Hmm?"

She looked me dead in the eyes.

Her red hair flying in the wind.

"Promise me you'll win."

I shook my head yes.

She held my hand as she walked me home.

"Goodnight Marvel. I love you."

She kissed me on the cheek.

"No." I said.

"What?" she said.

My lips were on hers.

We were kissing.

I was putting my hands on her waist and pulling her closer, and she was letting me.

Our lips were moving together just like they always had.

She didn't have any time to think, and then her fingers were knotting in my hair.

She pulled away.

"Marv."

I put my index finger on her lips.

"Don't say it. Okay? I love you, too."

I removed my finger from her lips.

I kissed her once more.

This time its was light and sweet.

I just volunteered.

Chrysanthemum is just standing there.

Dumbfounded.

"I hate you!" She screamed.

She ran to see me.

"But I love you." she whispered.

We kissed our last kiss before the Games.

"I love you, too Chrysanthemum."

I just shot Rue.

Katniss just drew an arrow.

I look around to find a camera.

I couldn't see one.

So I just said out loud.

"I am so sorry. Chrysanthemum. I truly wanted to keep that promise."

Katniss let go of arrow.
