Capitol

Lea woke up in a hospital bed, not recognizing where she was. Was she rescued from the Capitol? Was she in District 13? 

She then saw Finnick walk into the Hospital. 

"FINNICK," She screamed as she saw him, Finnick turned around at the hearing of his name but had a blank look on his face. Once he saw her, he just walked the other way

"Finnick?" Lea confusedly called out his name as she ran after him. 

"What do you want Lea?" He angrily spat at her. 

"Are you not happy to see me? I haven't seen you in months and this is how you react?" Lea said while feeling a tear flow out of her eye. 

"Happy?" He spat "You were the one who told everyone you didn't love me anymore, well I guess that made me realize that I don't love you either, in fact, I can even say that I really despise you, go back to the Capitol and play the happy granddaughter there 'cause I hate you," Finnick angrily said before walking away. 

"Finnick please, come back," Lea cried out as she sank to her knees. 

"Finnick, Finnick," She shouted with her eyes full of tears. 

Suddenly, Lea's eyes snapped open, she sat up in the bed as beads of sweat dotted her forehead. 

"It's not real, It's just a nightmare," Lea whispered to herself. But even though, Lea realized it was only a nightmare, she was afraid that it would become reality and she couldn't stop overthinking the whole situation. What if he really doesn't love her anymore after her interview? No, she couldn't start to think like that. She had to believe in their love, believe that their love was so strong that it could overcome everything. 

Then Lea heard a knock at her door and before she could say anything, a peacekeeper walked in. 

"Miss Miller, you are allowed to see Peeta Mellark and Gloss Nicholo now, if you please," The peacekeeper said. 

"What about Johanna Mason?" Lea asked. 

"Be grateful, you get to see two of them already," The peacekeeper spat. 

"But why not Johanna?" Lea asked again. 

"Miss Mason is placed in isolation for acting out of line again," The peacekeeper replied. 

"Can I see her tomorrow?" Lea asked. 

"If by then Miss Mason behaves better, you can but for now do you want to see Peeta Mellark and Gloss Nicholo?" The peacekeeper said in a robotic voice, it was like he was programmed to say those things. 

"Yes of course," Lea said. 

"Follow me," The peacekeeper said as he walked to the door. 

"Eumh Hello?" Lea said 

"What is it now?" The peacekeeper frustratedly said. 

"I am still in my pajamas, can I not get dressed first?" Lea asked. 

"You get 5 minutes, I will wait outside," The peacekeeper said before walking out of the room. 

Lea quickly got out of her pajamas and threw on some sweatpants and a sweater before walking out of the room. 

"You took 6 minutes and 30 seconds," The peacekeeper said. 

"Great job, you can count," Lea said while rolling her eyes. 

"I would keep the attitude if you don't want to end up like Miss. Mason," The peacekeeper said. 

Hearing Johanna's name out of the Peacekeepers' mouth, made her sick. She worried about the horrible things they had done and would still do to Johanna. She had to find a way to see her best friend.
