Chapter 6: Waiting Game

Chapter 6: Waiting game

The waiting game to see Finnick, took a long 2 week period. It was almost a week before August. While I waited for Finnick, I was constantly thinking about what to say to him. What I thought the words he wanted me to say to him? All I cloud do wait and wait. The waiting just constantly builds up my anxiety and nervousness. Even though I knew what to expect, knowing and seeing are two different situations. I knew that the capitol won't release their grimmie claws off of him. They will try to use and abuse him for however long he last.

The horrible part of it all is that  I didn't know what Finnick was experiencing. I only made some possible guesses. I know he will be suffering far worse, due to the loss of his family, through an "accident". Notice my sarcasm when I said accident. If only I knew perspect dates in his life, from the books. I only could make random guesses that were completely useless to solve any major issues in his life.

When I found out about Finnick's family passing, I broke down crying. I felt useless, and felt like a monster. I could had warn him, but he would had thought I was crazy or insane. Now, I could do is wait like I have always been doing for these past few weeks. My arms and heart will be open for Finnick as long as he accepts my comfort.

When I began to go down a dark rabbit hole, President Snow had already taken his family from Finnick, but Snow as always has a back up plan if his victors don't comply. That only left my family and I to be threatened and held over the head of Finnick. Losing me will probably break Finnick even further than ever before.

Once he arrives, I will support him in any way I can. I will treat him as a human being and not a fragile vase. I will always be by his side even if he doesn't want me there. Even through my shyness and obliviousness, I realize that I love Finnick. I Love Him! It just took all this time and grief to notice that I do, as well as a push from my mother.

By the time Finnick had arrived back. My brother's birthday has passed. Leon became 20 years old. Finnick and I were still 14 years old, but Finnick will have grown up fast into thinking like an adult. Being put in his situation, who wouldn't become a new individual. I only caught a glimpse of him during his stop in district 4, during his victory tour. No face to face meeting up any time soon. So, I still waited for Finnick's return.

My family noticed my unease and worryness throughout the weeks and even, while celebrating my brother's birthday. Until that night at the end of my brother's birthday night, June 24th, my mother talked and asked about my feelings towards Finnick.

She spoke to me ,"Honey, come sit," while she patted the black leather loveseat.

I answered with an "okay"?

"I know it's been hard thinking about Finnick, but you don't have to worry so much. Finnick will back home soon. I'm asking you to just take a breath of fresh air release the stress that you're causing yourself," said my mom.

" I will mom, but it's hard not to stress about him. He just went through a death game and now he loses his family," I said.

"Yes, I agree, but we cannot change things that happen. We are only human sweetie. We have to stay strong, and welcome back Finnick with wide open arms. Finnick had won his game, but he will need your support, your strength, your love, and your spirit to keep him going. So, He will need your support the most," said my mother.

"Yeah, you're right,mom. I will stay strong for Finnick," I said.

"I know, I'm always right sweety. We both began to laugh. After we both calmed down she asked," Sweety, how do you really feel about Finnick besides him just being your best friend?"
