“If it weren’t..I-If it weren’t..”

Caesar looked at the boy with pity before speaking, “If it weren’t for what, Peeta?”

The crowd stayed silent. Awaiting for Peeta’s response. Peeta cleared his throat and sighed.

“If it weren’t for the baby.”

The crowd erupted into roars. The people looked angry, yelling for the games to be canceled. Haymitch chuckled and cheered the boy on. You could see Peeta’s smirk as the crowd turned into chaos. Demanding President Snow to stop the games. He ran up towards you and hugged you. Inhaling your scent before holding your hand. The other tributes then did the same, they raised their arms and the crowd roared again.

''Cancel the games!" Called some woman from the mob.

"Stop it at this instant!!" They growled.
