The door opens and my brother comes in. he come in and sits next to me on the leather seats.
"Hey Peeta try to win ok" he says
"Yeah sure I will try" I say
"Look we never wanted your name to get chosen it's a bummer. Dad will be coming in soon and so will mum" he says.
I hug him just in case I don't make it back. He exits the room and my dad and mum come in. Dad hands me a paper bag with cookies in it. I hug him too.
"Dad look after mum and brother, I will try to win" I say fighting back tears.
"Peeta good luck" is all mum says to me.
"Bye" I say.
The peacekeepers escort us to the train which takes us to the Capitol. As I walk I can see Katniss had been crying a little too. We have to sit quietly until Haymitch our mentor comes. He is always drunk. I'm surprised he became and victor. Anyway he is district 12's only living victor. Haymitch is still not here so I try to make a conversation with Katniss while I can.
"You nervous?" I say
Katniss looks out the window without looking at me. She doesn't answer me. "It's really brave what you did, volunteering for Prim's place" I say
Katniss still doesn't answer me. Suddenly the door opens and come in a very drunk Haymitch with a bottle in his hand as always.
"Are you going to give us advice on how to survive?" asks Katniss
Haymitch nods and says "Right after I finish my drink"
We wait and wait he has had 3 bottles and wont stop drinking. I get tired and I snatch the bottle from his hands. His foot quickly goes to my chest and he says angrily "Give me back my bottle and I will give you advice"
I hand him back the bottle and he leaves the room. After a few moments I go after him. Haymitch is sitting on the wooden table and is eating like he's never going to taste food again. I sit across him and eat. Few minutes later Katniss comes in she has put her hair into its usual braid and is walking towards the table and sits next to me.
"How do we find shelter?" Katniss asks.
"Just try not to die" Haymitch says ignoring her question.
Katniss gets frustrated and leaves the room. I go outside and follow her.
"Katniss look I'm sorry. One of us will die and before I do I want us to be friends again" I say
Katniss looks at me and hugs me "I'm sorry to".
I am so happy Katniss and I are friends again.
A few minutes later we enter the Capitol for the first time.
