Nobody Is Supposed To Die
"The moral of this story is that no matter how much we try, no matter how much we want it, some stories just don't have a happy ending." - Jodi Picoult
Effie Trinket and Haymitch Abernathy have known each other for a long time. Twenty-five years, to be exact, ever since Haymitch's insufferable escort showed up on his doorstep only months after he tragically lost his mother, younger brother, and girlfriend to the Capitol, tagging a skinny red-haired fourteen-year-old behind her.
When Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark win the 74th Hunger Games, years of built-up lust and love for each other get the best of Haymitch and Effie, and they quietly begin a secret relationship that quickly evolves into unconditional love for each other. However, as the Third Quarter Quell and the secret plan for the Rebellion grows closer and closer, Haymitch gets more and more worried that President Snow will find out about his and Effie's secret love and punish her for it.
This is a tragic and beautiful story that tells the story of Haymitch Abernathy and Effie Trinket's relationship throughout the Rebellion, and the tragic events that follow after.
A note that this story was begun prior to the release of Sunrise On The Reaping.
