I own nothing of this except my OC, the rest belongs to Suzanne Colins

I stand facing my window, i know my luck will never change i will always be in this district fighting to stay alive and fighting to keep my family alive. I have became the main supporter of my family since my parents died of some flu that was strong enough to kill anyone. But the Capitol came before i could get sick before i could die so i can get away from all this so i can be at piece so i can finally see what joy was, but no i couldn't Snow couldn't have anymore deaths. After my parents died i was left to care for my younger sister, Helena. She was only 7 when she seen them die, she was so young to see the pain. But she saw it and she held it together better then i did and i guess i owe it to her. After my parents died i started looking for a job, but no one would want to hire a 16 year old that had nothing going for him. So worse kept on getting worse, but one day i met this girl her name was Katniss Everdeen, she helped me get back to my norm. I learned to hunt with a bow and arrow, but i always preferred stealing from the Hob. Katniss never approved of my actions neither did i, i had someone who needed it more then i though so i guessed that made it better or a bit angelic in a way.

I hear the sound of the floor crying out for attention, i smile as i know my sister is awake. I make my way to the washroom and i wash my face, i grab my leather jacket and hunting boots. I make my way to my sister. I knock on her door.

"You know you can just walk in" she says tiredly

i walk in. She turns to look at me and her smile on her face quickly fades.

"You need to stop going out there, you can get in hurt one day"

" I can't, you and I both know it we need it to survive otherwise we would be dead in days"

She opens her mouth to say something, but i just turn around and walk away. i wasn't in the mood right now. I hear her sigh as i run down the stairs and outside the house. It was still dark, most people are still asleep, I wish i could sleep in and have someone else do this for me and help me. I run to the electric fence that is suppose to keep us in bounds, I don't know why they even bother the people here wouldn't even leave there house unless there was something in their home wanting food.

I climb through the fence and run down the hill to a old oak tree, i grab my bow out of the hole, i jog a couple metres to the next tree and grab the arrows and a knife. I walk around looking for a game but nothing ever seems to be wanting to get killed today. I walk down to a stream and i lung my self at a rock so i can sit, i stare at the water, my eyes are the only thing that makes me wonder why i have green eyes, everyone else in my district has grey or brown even my own sister has grey eyes, i guess my mom slept with some douche before meeting my dad. I get lost in my thoughts but im jerked out of them by ruffling leaves, I Jump up grabbing my knife and turning in the direction only to see the one and only Katniss.

"Y'know sneaking up on people is a easy way to get your self killed" i say a bit rude, i hope she doesn't get offended

She smiles "That's the point"

I hear more ruffling and i grab my bow and point it at the direction, and a tall man walks in and he looks amazng with his grey eyes and chisled facial features.

"Nate, i want you to meet Gale"

He gives me a hard glare.

"Hey" is all he says

"hey" i reply trying to put as much venom in it and to my luck it works.

"Listen Nate i need your help, my mom isn't being her self so i need you to watch Prim tonight"

"Why can't you?" i say rudely

"There's something happening with Gale and he needs help" she says a bit quitely

I realize she is gonna have sex with this dude like i called dibs on every hot dude she see's first,

"Oh... Don't worry have fun with your boy toy, i'll pick prim up at 8" i say calmly and turn around and walk away. I hear angry bickering from them i can't help but smile that i made him pissed in the first few minutes i met, what a record.

I make my way back to the fence with some game but not as much as i wish. i make my way to the hob and sell it. I see a green necklace that Helena would love for her 8th birthday coming up in a week. i walk over and see the vendor talking to someone, i swiftly snatch it and make my way out as quick as i can. After i make my way to the Mellark Bakery. I walk in and i see Gale there with a big game, I hate him more already for being better then me. I walk up to the front and i see Peeta walk in, he smiles when he saw me. Me and Peeta have been friends since i can remeber, he helped me out alot with food and with just smiling everday.

"what can can i get you?" he says with a big smile he tries to hold back.

"I'll have a loaf" i say as i show him the money.

"give me a minute or so, i'm making a fresh batch"

i nodd, and i go to sit. I start to stare into the windows thinking that the sun will appear, who am i kidding it never does. With all this Smoke from the coal i'm surprieed this area is still standing. I rest my head in my hands. I hear someone sit next to me and the person lets out a big breath. I try to sneak a look and i see it's Gale. 'fuck'. I try my best to ignore him as best as i can, but to my surprise he starts a conversation.

"Hey, Nate..." he says awkwardly.

"Hey"

"we weren't going to" he says

"going to do what?" i say sounding slightly annoyed.

"sex, i wasn't going to have sex with Katniss" he says more awkwardly.

I nodded and then i got up but i felt him grab my hand.

"what?" i say harshly.

"Nothing" he says letting go.

I see Peeta walk out with my bread i quickly grab it and i leave feeling like an asshole.
