I Volunteer for Prim at the Reaping

I thought that there was no way that Prim or I could even get close to picked out of the reaping ball, but i was mostly thinking of myself, and Prim's name never crossed my selfish mind.  I didn't know what else to do when her name was called except for volunteer for her.  At first, not a thought could go through my mind as I called out her name in fear and desperation.  And now, I'm on my way to the games and there is nothing that I could do to reverse this day, make what happened come undone.  Because my life is protecting Prim, and even my mother alot of the time.  Of course I wouldv'e volunteered for her.  I just wish that I could see her again...but with all of these people, specifically the Careers, there is a slim chance, if any chance at all, that I can make it out of here alive and back to her again.  And now, I have to fight against the boy who gave me the bread.  the boy who's been in school with me all of my life.  Peeta Mallark.  And i feel like I owe him, and I can't do much when I'm on my way to kill him.  I can't jusst thank him by stabbing a knife through his heart.  But I have to get back to Prim.  So I'll just steer clear of him on the train and hope that someone else kills him before I do.
