Gabi pov
i've never really been the same since I saw Robbie die, I can only imagine what it would be like if I was actually there
I cant stop watching the games
I havn't slept in days
I don't want to miss anything in case anything important happens
I still havn't really let Robbie go if you know what I mean.
when I saw willows leg I had to send something, I cant loose all of them
I want Noah and willow to come back but I know for a fact that isn't going to happen
it's so hard watching them in there and not being able to do anything
urghhhh
I will not cope if both of them don't come back, I like really need them in my life
i'm so fucking annoyed, I didn't even vote for Gillion

I try and go talk to Gabi but her mum won't let me in
I try and talk to my mum but she is up in her room and won't talk
I try and talk to dad but he says go talk to your mum, im busy
I try and talk to papa hay but he is in the capitol
I would go talk to willow but she isn't here
I need to talk to someone, I'm about to go out my mind
I decide to go see aunt annie and I leave a note to my parents
wont be back till tomorrow, don't worry about me I know my way around

I go to the train station and there is like no body here, I just assume that everyone is watching the games
I get on the train and there is only 4 other people on the train, an old couple, a mum or something and a girl
and I'm no going to lie she's pretty hot
everyone looks at me as I get on except the girl
they all probably know who I am
I sit down and put my ear plugs in
I look up and the girl is sitting opposite me saying something but I can't hear it
I take my ear plugs out by this time she has her hand out and I shake it
"sorry I didn't hear any of that" I laugh
"ah, well my name is rosinitha but just call me thorn" she says with a big grin on her face
"uh...hi Thorn" I say slow kinda creeped out
"sorry if I'm so forward, I've been on this train for hours now and I need someone to speak to" she laughs and sits back in her sit
" well I'm ry-"
"Rye Mellark, I know" she cuts in
this makes me laugh
" how did you know" I smile
"history, you are quite famous you know" she says moving to sit next to me
" really?" I laugh " I'm not a big fan of history class since its always about my parents past and its a horrible past" I continue
"I feel you, my step mums old husband was in the games, but I don't like talking about it cause he was part of the careers"
"cato?"
"yeah" she laughs and blushes " Cato's brother works in the capitol, we're really close, but people hate us because of cato and no offence he was only trying to survive"
"yeah, I know, everyone was"
"well think of it this way, if there wasn't any games you and willow wouldn't be here"
"but my parents wouldn't be suffering everyday" I look at her and raise my eyebrows
"oh.. sorry, I didn't realise"
"nah it's good, where you heading?" I ask trying to change the subject
" uh 4" she says looking at her watch "been asked for a favour"
"what favour?"
"well Annie o'dair doesn't have anyone to work for her any more and she asked my dad if I could help"
oh yeah, I forgot about Robbie and willow is in the games
shes not going to be okay with her husband and son gone
shit
"really?!, shes my aunt, well like I call her my aunt, known her all my life, I'm going to see her the now" I say looking at her
I never really looked at her properly
she has long, straight, light brown hair, big bright blue eyes and amazingly straight white teeth.
"well that's good cause now you can show me the way to hers"
we both laugh and carry on talking and honestly I forgot all about the games and I was worry free and I loved it
we eventually get to 4 and she drags me off the train
"thought you didn't know where you were going" I say
she suddenly stops in the middle of the platform, which makes people behind us get frustrated
"oh yeah" she laughs and pulls me in front of her
we walk along the high street and head to the pier, there is these big screens like everywhere I look following the games
unfortunately both people from district 4 didn't make it so it now just follows round everyone and who ever is interesting
"thorn over here" I shout back as she has stopped to pet a cat
"just coming" shes says as she runs up to me
"this place is so pretty" she continues "much tidier and neater than my district"
" and what district may that be" I ask
"numero dos" she smiles and sticks up two fingers
"wait so you know Mahic?" I ask
"oh yeah, he's my brother"
"oh mae gawd, you two look alike actually" I laugh
she punches me in the shoulder and we both laugh
"RYE!" I look down the pier and see Aunt Annie crying running up to me
she brings me into a hug and she starts crying
"its okay, I just thought you might want some company" I whisper
"thankyou" she says and breaks the hug
"you must be Rosinitha, hello please come and have a drink" she continues wiping her tears and dusting her self down
"thorn, and of course" thorn says in return
we sit down and Aunt Annie tells her about the job and how Robbie and Willow used to work here and all
Aunt Annie goes and shows Thorn the pier and I stayed in the house
Aunt Annie had put up a wee memorial place for Robbie by the fire place, with pictures of Robbie and flowers and letters from other people
if only people knew in the capitol, how much pain the games left
I scanned through the pictures and I saw a group picture I picked it up to have a closer look, as soon as I saw who was in it I started crying, it was taken two years ago, in it were myself, Robbie, Willow, Gabi, Noah and Kyle and we were al doing this stupid pose at the end of the pier
i hated it how life would never be like that again, we will never all be together again, ever.
Aunt Annie walks in on me looking at it and i rest it back in the spot i picked it up from
"here honey take it home with you" and she hands me back the picture
"thankyou" i say really weak as i was crying
