A knock came from the front of your home in District twelve.

As you opened the door, you saw your peacekeeper boyfriend, Coriolanus Snow holding a tiny mutt in his arms with a small velvet collar that seemed a bit beat up, a tiny little rusty bell on the end of the collar.

With a nervous expression, the buzz-cut male looked down at his significant other, you, with a slight smile.

"You mentioned wanting a puppy. Like the ones they have in the capitol you saw during the games.." He explained without you even needing to say anything.

Coriolanus then handed you the puppy who barked, the dark, fluffy yet matted fur a huge mess as your fingertips touched the fur.
