Summary
An AU Written before Sunrise on The Reaping was released
-
As Effie prepares to start training to be games escort, she crosses paths with none other than Haymitch Abernathy. They might be opposites, but they have common interests, books being one, and a need to retreat from parties another. Despite their reservations about getting to know one another, fate has other ideas, pushing them together by making Effie the escort for District Twelve.But Effie isn't naive, she knows what it will take to be the escort that the district needs. So, she offers Haymitch a deal. She will play the role of the perfect escort if he can keep himself just sober enough to train their tributes. He reluctantly agrees, not because he thinks it will work, but because Effie asked him. And for some reason he cannot understand, he tends to do as she asks.
---
A look at the years in between, seeing two people that shouldn't get along become dependant on one another through the dark. Years of games together. Losing tributes. A Quarter Quell. A War. Maybe one day they'll find the peace they were both searching for that first day they met in the gardens.
Inspired by the album 'The Tortured Poet's Department'
