Peeta has lost the girl he thought he has loved for years. He now has to suffer and overcome the agony of loss. When he makes it home, he finds that he doesn't have to do it alone.

1. Chapter 1

I do not own hunger games or the character, nor do I claim any credit for the actual story.

I lost her

Chapter 1 Peeta POV

The moment she pulls out the berries, my heart drops. She wanted to kill herself so I could go home. "No Katniss..." She gives me a handfull. "Together." I nod, and we stand, hand in hand. "1, 2, 3..." The buzz of the speaker throws me off right as the berries were about to touch my lips. "Stop!" I am relieved, and when the grip on my hand loostens, I figure she is too. A thud. The final cannon of the games this year. "May I introduce you, ladies and gentleman, to the 74th victor! Peeta Mellark!"

Carmen POV

I rip my eyes from the screen. What they do, it's so fucked up. My brother is in the mines. My parents both died so long ago. I'm hungry and alone. Trapped in the seam of district12. I knew Peeta. He gave me bread for less than they cost, every week. He was in my age group at school. I cannot bare the thought of him going through this, or the sight of it. I decide that I would be there to support him, be there as a friend, as soon as he got home. Poor little Prim. She is so sweet. I'll try to help them, too.

I feel the sting off tears, and I run, all the way to the fence outside the district. I consider throwing myself into it, but, no. I promised myself I would help.
