It started when I was scavenging for dinner. I was crawling around on the floor and i knocked into him. He fell and knocked me over so I was on top of him on the ground. He reached up and tucked my dirty brown hair behind my ear and we sat there staring at each other for about a minute. Then I came back to reality and jumped up.

"Sorry," I said brushing myself off.

"Me too," he said getting up.

We acted like it had been nothing. But as days went by we were doing more together. Maybe even becoming friends. We never thought it would become more than just a friendship. After all he thought he still loved Annie and i was too much of a loner to love anyone. But then it happened.

We were just chatting when suddenly a bird appeared. He saw it too. Then, its red eyes glared straight at me and it took off flying right towards my face. I screamed and jumped over to Finnick and held him putting my head in his strong shoulder. Then the bird was gone. Just as quickly as it had appeared, it had disappeared. I looked up into Finnick's green eyes and he looked down into my brown ones and then, somehow, our lips met. The kiss could have gone on for hours, days, I don't know all I knew is that I felt this deep sensation rising up out of me and I felt like it was something I hadn't felt in a long time yet I yearned for it. Love. I loved Finnick. He might not love me but that didn't matter. Our lips were locked together and I was happy.

When at last we pulled out of the kiss, Finnick gave me a wild grin. I grinned right back. He had felt it to. He had felt that love and that perfectness. That night we snuggled up against each other for warmth and his breathing comforted me. My dreams weren't murderous like the memories from the my family getting killed, but peaceful.

When I woke up it the morning, I was cold though. I looked on both sides but Finnick was gone. His stuff was all here but he wasn't. He can't have gone far...I thought. But then i heard the sound that couldn't have been more terrible at this moment. A scream. Finnick's scream.
