I sat up upright on my bed with a jolt and my heart pounding. I was feeling exceptionally cheerful and happy and careful, thanks to my exciting dreams.

Noel was barking in my head as if it is the last day he will have to bark. I pouted as my wonderful dream was shattered to pieces by the barking of my sweet( note the sarcasm) dog. I wipe an imaginary tear from the corner of my eyes as I think about the spoiled moment between me and Four, where he was just about to kiss me.


I had a fortunate luck to be in the same dream with Percy, Four and where I was Katniss.

My poor dream!

Then almost instantly, my mind captured another important matter. Finnick. Is he all right? I so wanted to talk to him. I had about a zillion questions for him ranging from his well being to how I am in my room. I madly searched for my smartphone but I groaned as I recalled that I don't even have his number.

Damn me. Who would have thought we dont have our phone numbers despite knowing each other since weeks. And despite being his girlfriend. I grinned widely thinking about this pleasant thought.

For some reason or other, Finnick insisted on using telephones for talking or even going to each other's homes if something needs to be told. He actually avoided using smartphones.But why?

But that is past. I will take his number today, no matter what happens.

"Andrea? Have you woken up, my dear?" My mom's concerned voice fills the room.

"Yes mom." I said cheerfully. "How long was I out..sleeping I mean?"


I continued saying as I remembered that from my excitement of my dream, I had forgotten to take in note of some basic questions. I remembered we all had gone to rescue Harris...was he saved? How was I back in my room? How did we manage everything? I had no idea.

"Andrea dear, you came in last night. Anne and Tessy said you started feeling sick after a wild night out," My mother says in a soothing tone.

"Oh," I say trying to act normal about it.

"Are you feeling better?" My mom asks reaching out for my hand.

"Yes. A lot better," I quickly say trying to hide my smile. Because you just had a wonderful dream. My sub conscious adds.

The telephone starts ringing the next moment. On instinct, I knew it was for me. I sprang up from the bed and literally ran downstairs.

I picked up the handle of the receiver and was treated to his deep soothing voice.

"Finnick," I say pleased to hear his voice which had a calming effect on me.

"Gosh! Andrea? Are you fine?" He asks as concern drips from his voice. But I detect something else too. Gulitiness. And sadness.

"No, I am not. My dog just ruined a perfect moment. He was just about to kiss me! Can you imagine anything worse than that?" I yell at him. For some reason, I was feeling irritated on him too.

He was silent for some time as if he was not expecting this response.

"Who was about to kiss you?" He suddenly asks abruptly in a grave tone.

"Oh..leave it Finnick. You tell me what happened yesterday? How did we manage to return back? I don't remember anything."

"Oh..we can leave it too." He said in a mocking manner. I am sure he would be smirking at the other end of the line.

"Please Finnick. I need to know." I say trying to be patient.

And luckily he agrees. He tells me everything that happened yesterday. I sobbed as I recount my assault. That was horrible. I could not help admiring Finnick who came to save me just at the right moment. Yes. He was my real hero.

"Don't worry, Andrea. Everything would be fine." He said trying to console me.

"Hmm.." I say trying to maintain my composure.

We didn't talk for a couple of minutes. It was as if none of us knew what to say. I tried to break the tension. "Hey! Give me your smartphone's number! I don't have it, you know?"

He seemed reluctant in giving it but I convinced him to. Why he didn't want me to know his personal number?

I quickly opened my Whatsapp and messaged him- Hi boyfriend.

He came online and changed his profile picture but not before I had seen it. For it was a picture of him with a beautiful girl.
