I walked silently through the Seam from my house to my hunting partner Gale's. My eyes were closed on the journey to Gale's because I'd been there so many times I didn't need to see. I let my mind wander for a bit. To Prim, my mother, being too old to partake in the Games. I'd just turned 19 and Gale is about 21 so we're safe. As I arrived at Gale's house I knocked on the door. His mother welcomed me into their house with a smile. Gale almost never let me inside, and I almost never let him in my house. We usually met up in the woods, not wanting the other to see how bad it is. It was a silent agreement that we had, not letting each other in our home so much.
"Tea?" Ms. Hawthorne asked.
"No thank you, thank you for the offer." I replied. Ms. Hawthorne nodded in acknowledgement. I looked around the Hawthorne house, not seeing Gale.
"He'll be down soon, he's just waking up." Ms. Hawthorne stated where my friend was. I looked around the room some more, spotting a wooden object I faintly remember.
"Is that?" I start.
"Yup my guitar," Ms. Hawthorne replies knowing what I thought of it. "You can use it if you like." she offered.
"Thanks." I walk over to the object sitting on a chair. I picked it up and ran my fingers over the delicate strings. I'd used it a few times before. Knowing what to play, I started strumming the instrument and singing. For some reason I didn't hear the footsteps coming downstairs from Gale's room
'I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, "I'll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Don't you dare look out your window, darling,
Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby
Even when the music's gone
Gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La) La La (La La)
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
Just close your eyes
You'll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh.'
"Nice song," I was startled by Gale's voice from the doorway. "Did you write that?"
"Yeah." I looked down blushing, Gale had never heard me sing before so this was the first time he's heard my voice.
