“
"...You're
my whole life." Peeta says. "I would never be happy
again. It's different for you. I'm not saying it
wouldn't be hard. But there are other people who'd make
your life worth living."
"No one really needs me," he says, and there's no
selfpity in his voice. It's true his family doesn't
need him. They will mourn him, as will a handfull of friends.
But they will get on.... I realise only one person will be
damaged beyond repair if Peeta dies. Me.
"I do," I say. "I need
you.”
