Drunken Memories: The Mockingbird and the Jabberjay

by Fifidear

"She still haunts me, even after the twenty-four years of drinking to keep away her pleading eyes."- And to think that nightmares were once reality. *Hiatus? Discontinued? I honestly have no idea at this point*

"I had a friend in those games." Mrs. Everdeen,Catching Fire.

Haymitch-

I told them I would write in their book. And I will- just until the new shipment of whiskey comes in.

Katniss hands me a book to write the final words beside the picture of a girl with blinding-sun blonde hair and blue sky eyes.

My pen hovers over the paper. My mind makes blanks as the ink dries slowly, but surely. Peeta and Katniss watch me, waiting for the nineteenth page to be finished. Nineteen. If she wasn't the nineteenth she wouldn't be dead.

I dip my pen into the ink again. Then, carefully, I write her name above the picture.

The name that haunts me at night. The one that begs me to save her with her glossy eyes.

Maysilee Donner.
