Leo Pine
cause you search for years
but you lose everything you find
Charbon Shore. She's the only person in the world who ever stole my heart away. She's the only person I've ever cared about. Being in district one has changed me. It has changed me for the better. Living in district two, I was stuck being compared to a man who apparently looked like me. A man who volunteered for the games, and was a ruthless killing machine until his cocky nature got to him. Every where I turned people were pointing at me. Saying that I had risen from the dead, but I had never died. I was alive. Always alive. Even through the darkest hours, I hid away in my home because I wanted nothing to do with reality. All I wanted was for people to notice me as me; not as another being because as far as I'm concered, I'm nothing compared to the boy who died.
I was alone until I heard about the Panem Olympics. It was time to make a name for myself. It was time to show the world that I was different than the man I was compared to. A boy who looked like me - I don't even know his name. When I stepped foot inside the stadium in district four, I could hear people whispering. I could hear the constant talks about how I was him, and that I shouldn't be there because I died in the hunger games. Boy were they wrong. I was never in the hunger games. I am not this Ares Pine. Despite my last name matching his, I wasn't of any relationship to him. I was just Leo. A career designed by the Capitol to slaughter anyone who stood in my way until I met Charbon Shore.
We talked for hours upon hours during the Olympics. We constantly met in the Olympic village, and I fell in love with her. She's the only person I feel comfortable around. She's the only person who understood what I was going through despite all the pain and anger lurking inside my veins. She took it out. She turned me into an entirely different person. I will never forget the first time I laid eyes on her. Her beauty was beyond any word, and she left me speechless. Charbon allowed me to talk to her. She allowed me to get all that was bothering me off my chest. She allowed me to turn into a man who wasn't consumed by the hatred of the world.
Which is why I am here today.
I left district two because I wanted nothing to do with it anymore. District one is my home. It's where I belong. It's all that I have now. I took on a new look. A new way of life. A new place. Everything. I even let my hair grow out to become a scruffy looking peasant. I took the risk knowing that the peacekeepers could find me, but love wins over all. My love for a girl couldn't keep me away. It was a hard journey. One that I never thought possible; somehow I made it alive. I live here now. My entire life devoted to the one girl I fell in love with.
Charbon Shore.
Just thinking about her turns me into a different person. Butterflies dance inside my stomach, and a large grin twists it's way across my lips spreading from ear to ear. I love her, and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I want to marry her.
The idea of marrying her is the only thing that got me out of bed today. It's the only reason I threw on the clothing as the sun fell behind the clouds saying goodnight as the moon rose into the sky to only say goodmorning. The moon lights my way. It guides my heart to my deepest desires. All I ever wanted was to find a way to fit into a life without people comparing me, and now I have found my place.
Grabbing a backpack from beside the door, I journey out into the district promising myself I would only stay in the darkest alley's until I found the shop I was looking for. During the night hours, people slept. They didn't bother others which is why this moment came perfect. I was the perfect example of the definition of love. I risked my entire life to be with her, and it won't stop there. I'll find a way to trick a person. I'll make them think I had nothing to do with what I've planned, and Charbon won't ever know what I've done.
I scan the area making sure that nobody follows me. The sound of my footsteps bouncing against the concrete floor echo rapidly through my mind, but when I stop moving, the world grows quiet. My eyes fix on the stars in the sky. It's such a wonderful time, and I can't wait to spend this time with the love of my life. I yearn for us to lay on our backs somewhere hidden in the district as we talk about life. I yearn for a chance to hold her hand. To kiss her. For her to become Charbon Pine. My life is falling into place, and I'm the happiest I've been in such a long time. I don't have to worry about dying in the games anymore. I don't have to worry about people comparing me to a kid I never know. All that's available is this moment, and a chance to prove my love.
Stopping at the end of the alley, I listen as rats scurry across the ground. Their nails dig into the concrete, but the sounds of any human being is absent. I can't hear them, but all I can see the the shop resting in front of me. My heart leaps behind my chest as I look around one last time before making my way out into the street. Hearts dance in front of my eyes, yet risking my life, and a chance of being thrown into the detention center doesn't bother me at all, but first, all I have to do is marry the girl of my dreams.
I make a beeline across the abandon street, and I stop in front of a window lifting it into the air as I hold my breath hoping that nobody finds me. I scan the area again before leaping through the window seal and inside one of the best shops in the district. I run through the store searching for jewlery that's made its way here, and I stop when I find an amazing ring. My heart sinks to my stomach. I hope she would love this ring as much as I love it because it's my oath to spend my life with her. To protect her. To keep her safe. It's my oath to find my way of life. An oath that I won't ever take back. Studying the rings closely, I find the perfect one. A diamond ring. One that has to be expensive, and I pocket it as quickly as possible before running towards the open window praying that nobody finds me.
After I jump through and land on the ground, I see a kid staring at me. A large grin spreads across my face as the shadows hide my true-being. Soon peacekeepers would arrive, and soon this young kid would become the one in trouble for breaking into a shop. It was a perfect plan. One that I only hoped worked as I sprinted away from the shop as fast as I could without looking back.
I didn't stop running until I made it home. I went straight to my room and looked in the closet to find the best nonformal outfit that I could, and all I could find was a nice pair of jeans, and a white button down shirt. This would work for a date as I prepared for the next morning. A walk around the district to give the love of my life a present I hoped she accepted.
Hopefully she'd agree to spend the rest of her life living with me.
I sprint as fast as I can toward Charbon's home. Only a few moments until I find myself gasping for as I finally get to her door. I knock politely and wait a moment before letting myself in. I immediately drop to one knee and look at the only woman I want to spend my life with. "Will you marry me Charbon Shore?"
