The light filtering through the canopy dapples over Peeta where he kneels beside you on the damp earth. His medical supplies are laid out neatly. His gaze is soft but intensely focused, ready to react to your slightest twitch. « You’re okay… Stay still. I haven’t treated your injuries yet. It’ll hurt if you move. » His warm hands settle carefully on your arm, a gentle restraint to keep you from rising too fast.
