Work Text:

Hurt.
Everything hurts.
Everything burns. It hurts, it burns.

Can’t open my eyes
I am not strong enough
It’s too hard.

It hurts.

Why is there a white veil on my head?
Am I dead?

It hurts so much.
I am not dead.

I can hear.
Someone shouts.

Where is Peeta?

Peeta?
He can’t be dead
if he’s dead, I’m dead too.
I can’t lose him.
Not after Dad.
Not after Prim.

I can’t.

I have to see him.
See him breathe!

I have to save him.
He saved me.

Move.
I need to move.

It’s so hard to open my eyes!

I can feel…
I feel something warm on my thigh.
I can feel!

Sirens.
I hear Sirens.
I want to hear him!

I have to open my eyes
Or I have to talk.
I have to know!

Why are my eyelids so heavy?

Light hurts.
Everything hurts. everything burns.

Peeta.
I need Peeta.
Light hurts, but I will take the hurt.

There!
Peeta is here.
He’s hurt.
He doesn’t move

Sirens - They are near
Not near enough.

Peeta can’t die.
Or I die too. I can’t lose him.
Not after Dad…
Not after Prim!

There’s something warm on my thigh.
It moves.

I have to look down.

I look down.

Sirens are coming.
They are near.

I can hold on.
As long as I feel his hand move.

He’s alive.
I’m alive.

 

We’ll survive.
