Chapter 70

Warning: Thoughts of self-harm

Present time

"I cannot believe we are getting married," Lea giggled the morning after the proposal in bed with Finnick. She was looking at the beautiful ring on her hand.

"I cannot believe, you actually said yes," Finnick said with a big smile on his face.

"In what world would I ever say no to you," Lea said as she turned to face Finnick, using her hand to support her head.

"The world where you are absolutely too good for me, I don't deserve you," Finnick sighed.

"You absolutely do, how many times do I have to tell you that," Lea said as she rolled her eyes.

"I love you," Finnick replied as he leaned forward to kiss Lea.

"I love you too, Finn," Lea replied.

"Have you thought about how you want our wedding to be?" Finnick asked.

"I want a small wedding, on the beach with only our families and best friends. What do you think?" Lea asked him.

"I absolutely love it," Finnick smiled before he started kissing her.

"You sure? We can do something else if you want," Lea said between kisses.

"No, no I absolutely love the idea of it being just with our friends and family, and even if I didn't, I don't care, I'm getting married to the love of my life. Nothing can ruin that," Finnick grinned before he hovered over her. He then leaned down to kiss her.

"Are you absolutely sure about that?" A voice sounded from the other side of the room.

Finnick turned around and saw Enobaria standing across from him, he looked back down and Lea wasn't there anymore. Suddenly he was back in the Arena, behind the wall. Unable to save Lea from being killed.

"Please don't" Finnick sobbed

"Why should I listen to you?" Enobaria giggled before slamming the knife into Lea's stomach, making her fall to the ground.

"NOOOOOO," Finnick screamed

"NOO, NOOOO please," Finnick kept on screaming

"Finnick, Finnick, wake up," Tyler said while shaking Finnick's Shoulders to wake him from his nightmare.

Then Finnick gasped as he opened his eyes. Beads of sweat dotted his forehead as he sat up in bed, gasping for air. Tyler was sitting next to him.

"It was just a nightmare," Tyler said to calm him down.

"It wasn't just a dream, right? She is really gone, isn't she?" Finnick cried out.

"I really wish I could tell you otherwise, but unfortunately I can't," Tyler said while a tear started flowing out of his eye.

"I can't do this Tyler, I can't live without her," Finnick sobbed.

"I know buddy, I know," Tyler said as he hugged Finnick.

"Visiting hours are over, you can come back tomorrow. For now, Mister Odair needs some rest," Miss Everdeen said.

"I don't want to be in the Hospital anymore, It not going to help me," Finnick said while still crying.

"It might help with your nightmares, hold on a few more days, and then you can come live with the rest of us in the chambers," Tyler said as he walked out of the hospital.
