The crowd's initial alarm at our appearance quickly changed to cheers and shouts of "District Twelve!" Every head was turned our way; every eye was trained on us. I froze up, terrified of all the attention, until I caught a glimpse of Katniss beside me.
    
    In the deepening twilight, the firelight illuminated her face. She seemed to be leaving a trail of fire behind her. I saw her lift her chin, put on her most winning smile, and wave with her free hand. Katniss was radiant, her figure wreathed in flames.
    
    She noticed me staring, and glanced at me with a small smile before looking back out at the crowd and blowing kisses. That smile brought a grin to my lips, and I waved to the crowd as well, filled with an odd glow, my fingers intertwined with Katniss'.
    
    The crowd screamed our names, desperate for our smiles and waves. No one will forget us. Katniss and Peeta. The girl on fire. And the boy in love.

    Peeta has always hated his mother. Peeta has always baked bread. And Peeta has always loved Katniss Everdeen. Only one problem: she doesn't know he exists. But when Peeta gets a chance to save her, can he give up everything? Or will fear and self-preservation destroy his narrow shot at true happiness, and -dare he say it- true love?
