Chapter 27: After the 66th Hunger Games and Interview

Chapter 27: After the 66th Hunger Games and Interview

Finnick POV

He did it! My love did it! He won! He is coming home. I couldn’t be more proud of what he had achieved. However, I also feel great sorrow for the other children that lost their lives. I’m just happy that I will be getting my love back in my arms to hold again. I am glad the people of the capital bought into our building romance. Now, I can show everyone and the world all the love I have for Rudy.

I don’t need to hide my feelings for my love behind a mask because we made it possible for our relationship to flourish. I know tomorrow is going to be a long day. My love won’t be able to have a break until we are back home and on the train for his victory tour.  By then we will be able to talk and talk about how he is really feeling away from prying eyes. 

Even now, I just want to have my husband in my arms and to tell him that I love him. Also, I just want to tell him that everything was going to be okay like he did for me once. During my own victory tour, I wished I had my darling by my side, but now our roles are reversed. I’m going to do everything possible to help my love heal. I will be with you every step of the way. Things won’t be the same as they used to be, but that’s okay.

We will have to learn how to be together again with time and patience. I will always love him as long as he will have me in his life. I should be getting ready to see Rudy during the next morning when he will be interviewed by Caesar. Lucky for me, I get to see him before his interview. I’m pretty sure Caesar is going to ask me to go on stage along with Rudy at some point in his interview. He is probably going to ask about my feelings for my love. I should get to bed so I can wake up early. Just wait for my love. I will be seeing you tomorrow and I will have you back in my arms. 

Rudy POV

The way back to the capitol all I felt was guilt and sadness of what I had done these past days. I will always remember each of the young souls from these 66th hunger games, but more so the lives that I have taken. The cuts on my arm are a reminder of those I killed to survive. However, these cuts drive me to hope for a better future and hope to see a new era become a reality. I wish to see the rebellion succeed and bring a new era of peace and harmony to Panem. I wish for a world that no longer has to sacrifice children for entertainment. If I have to, then I will join the cause for the rebellion. 

Here’s the thing though, I am no hero or a main protagonist. I just do things that will benefit the people in my life and myself. Don’t get me wrong I will help out in the civil war that is coming in the future, but if things pose potential danger to my family, Finnick, or I; then I won’t lift a single finger. For now though, I will worry about my day to day life and getting better mentally. Only time will tell what will happen in the future along with my choices I will make. We just got to wait and see.

Once the plane landed back in the capitol it was late at night. Peacekeepers escorted me to a random location to stay for the night. The next day I will be staying in the same building that Finnick stays in when he comes to the capitol. The place is more for all the victors from past games and they are forced to stay there when they come to the capitol. 

Once we got to the room I was staying in, I headed towards the shower to take a cold shower. I wanted to stay away from possible cameras and bugs in the room. I walked straight into the shower with my clothes still on and began to cry my eyes out. I smutter my screams into my arms, but I continue to let my tears flow out of me. All I could think about is what have I done. Why did I have to do it? Am I a murder? Am I a monster now? All my dark thoughts began to surface in my mind, and it made me feel worthless, guilty, angry, sad, and hopeless. I was giving myself a panic attack. I just couldn't control my emotions. I just wanted someone with me for comfort. I wanted Finnick. He will know my pain and know what I am going through and thinking.
