We are sitting there, Cody, Finn, and I. Cody and Finn are talking about something going on in District 4, but I'm too distracted to worry about anything that is going on.
I pulled out the piece of rope that I always keep tucked in my pocket and started tying and untying knots. Over the 2 years after I won my games I have gotten callouses on the fingers I use to tie the knots.
Tying the knots helps me distract my brain from something other than what is going on in my life. I use it when I can't go back to sleep after a nightmare or just think about anything in the games.
I finally look up from my knots after I hear the train doors open. I don't want to see the face of Annie because there are two different ways this can go.
She can either be really distant or she can be angry and try to attack me. I really hope she is distant. I wouldn't be able to hurt Annie. I would think too much about Adrian if she were to come at me.
Shark and Annie sit across the table from Cody, Finn, and I while Winnie moves to sit next to me. I take a good look at both of them now. Shark is tan, a little skinny, and looks like he is on the younger side. I would say he is probably around 15-16 years old just by looking at him.
Now Annie. I know she is 18 because she is my age. She still has her long auburn hair that looks like it's been messed around with since the reaping. Her eyes are rimmed red probably from crying.
I know how scared she is. She watched her brother go into these games and he never came out of them. I know she probably doesn't want my pity because I'm the one who let her brother die in the arena.
You tried your best. No! I didn't try hard enough! There was nothing you could've done. I could've gotten sponsors to help him!
A hand on my shoulder takes me away from my thoughts. I look over at Finnick who is looking at me with the same eyes he always gives me.
I look over at Annie and Shark. Annie is fidgeting with her fingers under the table and her head is turned down towards them.
Cody finally ends the awkward silence, "Do you guys have anything that we can work with? Like weapons you can wield? Any specialties?" He asks.
"Um," Shark says, clearing his throat. "I can throw a spear and use a sword." He says. His blue eyes looked around the room.
"Okay, that's a good place to start. What about you, Annie?" Cody asks.
