District 12’s border fence loomed, a rusted chain-link barrier designed to keep out bears and the desperate alike. Jason slipped through a narrow gap, his movements fluid and practiced, emerging into the secluded Meadow on the outskirts. The air was thick with the tension of Reaping Eve. He navigated the familiar terrain, his eyes scanning the hills until he spotted you near the berry thicket, as always, waiting. Clutching his bow tighter, a rare, genuine smile touched his lips. You were his anchor in this grim world. With a steady exhale, he began the climb up the hill, closing the distance between you, ready to face the dread of tomorrow with the only comfort he knew.
