Prim's P.O.V.

I didn't know what to say. So I said nothing. I just walked in and sat down. There were tears in my eyes and I could see some in Peeta's as well. I made a straight, emotionless face as Katniss served me soup. I quickly ate so I could leave as soon as possible. As they served the main course, I felt a note being pressed into my hand. I looked up and saw Katniss scurrying away. I ate and when they served desert, I excused myself. I ran to my room and opened the note:

Prim,
I'm sorry we left you. I couldn't take it any more. Gale and I ran during the reaping. Then I heard your name and I saw your shirt tail sticking out and I lost it. I ran away from Gale and out of the woods into the valley. Eventually, Gale found me and tried to pull me into the forest, but I refused to move. I don't know what happened after that, but the next thing I knew, my tongue was gone. I'm sorry we left you, but just know we both love you and we wish you good luck.

~K & G

Somewhere during that letter, I began crying. All I knew was tears were streaming down my face. I came to my senses, wiped my face, and took a shower. After the shower, I changed, folded my clothes, and left them on the end of my bed for one of the avoxes. Then I crawled in bed and drifted to sleep. Somewhere in-between sleep and awake, I heard the door open and my clothes were picked up. The last thing I felt was a pair of lips on my forehead and the door shut softly.

Katniss's P.O.V. (surprise for me not updating XD)

I saw tears in Prim's eyes when she walked in. I felt tears in my eyes and I knew Gale felt the same way. I also looked at the rest of them. The drunk guy, the weird Capitol escort, Effie, I think, and the other tribute. There was a look I couldn't register. Sadness? Anger? Surprise? Somehow, I made it through the meal without bursting into tears. Right before serving desert, I slipped Prim a note. She looked up as I was shuffling away so I wouldn't look suspicious. I saw her look at her hands and excuse herself. She probably went to read the note. A while after Prim left, the others finished eating and dispersed. I went to go check on Prim and found her almost asleep. Since I thought no one was watching, I kissed her head and took her clothes to be washed. After I put them in the wash room, I was confronted by a peace keeper. "You made unnecessary contact with tribute 7412f. Please follow me." I looked for Gale and nodded and he left quietly. He was going to write another note. This one wouldn't be any sweeter than the last.
