After retrieving your sponsor gift from the cornucopia and using the medicine you received from it on Peeta’s wounded leg, he began to recover, enough to the point where you two began to travel around the arena. “We know Thresh took off.” Peeta stated. “Cato is gonna be by the cornucopia, he’s not gonna be someplace he doesn’t know, and Foxface, she can be anywhere.”

Eventually, you two arrived at a place where you could start hunting. “I’ll take the bow:” Peeta motioned to your arm, smiling when he spotted a look of annoyance on your face. “I’m kidding. I’ll go find something for us to eat.” He walked off, leaving you to focus on a bird that was nearby. You were about to shoot it down, until you heard a cannon go off. Immediately your mind went to one person and one person only.

Peeta.

Quickly, you ran throughout the woods, calling for Peeta in hopes that the cannon wasn’t meant for him. That’s when you eventually stumbled on his tribute jacket lying on the ground, holding a stack of what seemed to be blueberries piled up in the middle. Despite the innocent sight, you knew better to assume it was anything but, as you immediately recognized the berries to be night lock. Fortunately, you ended up knocking right into Peeta while he was gathering more berries for you two to eat. He looked perplexed for a bit. “Are you okay?!” He asked, hugging you when you berated him about the berries he picked. “I didn’t know.” Peeta panted, keeping his arms tightly wrapped around your form.

“I’m sorry.”
