"Mom!" Finnick calls out through crashing waves, trying to get his words out without drowning in the storm.

Shrapnel and debris float around him as he tries his best to swim through bloodied waters

"Finnick! Swim to the shore!" Finnicks mother shouts out, thunder and lightning obstructing every bit of Finnicks senses.

"Finnick grab my hand!" Finnicks father reaches out

"Finnick!"

"Finnick!"

Suddenly he's yanked out of the water

"Finnick?!" His eyes shoot open to Mags shaking him, finally awakening him from his nightmare

"Finnick are you alright?" The woman grabs his face with both her hands, checking for any signs of harm

Sitting up, He tries to calm his heavy breathing.

"Are you alright?" mags sits on the corner of his bed, gentle patting his back

"I get nightmares sometimes" he speaks softly as he wipes his tears stained cheeks

"It's alright, I do too" she offers a comforting smile

Mags knew if he survived the games his nightmares would only get worse, if his sleep was disrupted this badly from whatever was troubling him she didn't want to think about the nightmares he'd have at the end of all of this.

"You know what helps me when I can't sleep?" She stands up slowly "a glass of warm milk"

Finnick stumbles to the kitchen with mags as she pours him a glass of milk from the kettle.

"Do you think I have a chance of survival?" He finally breaks the silence

Mags smiles solemnly

"Do you want to survive?"

"Yes"

"Then you already have motivation.
Now all you need to do is fight." She hands him the warm glass

"Come on, want to watch a movie?" Mags headed to the couch's trying to get Finnicks mind off of whatever he was dealing with.

                                          ****

Finnick fell asleep on the couch about an hour into watching movies with mags. He was awoken by voices coming from the kitchen.

"What if instead of just blue we go tan and teal?" Odette offers an idea

"It would clash and it's vague, I want something that will wow the audience and make them remember Finnick." Mel dismisses the idea taking a pause to think "I know exactly what to do, odette would you stay here while I go meet the seamstresses?"

"Yeah sure, see you later"

"Look who's awake" Yvette notices Finnick and ushers him over

"Good morning sleeping beauty, how did you sleep?" Odette jokes

"Pretty good" Finnick answers with a groggy voice
