As we enter the train, I catch Maysilee's eye. I nod towards the room that I had been assigned by Effie. She doesn't do anything except begin to walk towards the room. I follow her into the room and lock the door behind me.
"Maysilee…" I begin to say, but she cuts me off.
"Don't Haymitch, just please don't. I know what you're going to say, and I just don't want to hear it!" she exclaims. Tears start to form and she collapses on the bed. I rush over to her and take her small frame in my arms.
"Shhhhhh Maysilee, I won't. I won't say the words," I soothe, running my hand through her hair.
"w-w-w-w-w-why us, Haymitch? why us? It just isn't f-f-f-f-f-f-fair!"
"I don't know sweetheart, I don't know."
"Haymitch, if I don't make it out-"
"Don't," I say the temprature in the room seems to drop, "Don't say those things ever agian in front of me. I WILL NOT lose you, ya hear?"
"But Haymitch-"
"No, just please no" I say, I'm trying to stay strong for her, but a single tear escapes my eye. Maysilee sees it and wipes it away with her thumb. She puts her hand on my face, and I lean in at the touch. we meet each others eyes and just stare. I can see all the love she has for me in her eyes, and I know that my eyes reflect the same thing to her. We stay like this for a while, just staring, enjoying each others company. This could be the last time we truly have peace, and i just want to savor it forever.
Forever is too good to be true because all to soon, it is time to go to dinner. We will meet our mentor and Lord, I just hope he can help me save my love...
