I had a dream; I got everything I wanted.
"Hey!" She said. "Hey, Andromeda." I smiled back. "How are you? I saw you at the meadow yesterday." She looked up at me slightly.
"Yeah, I've been good lately. I went to visit my mom's favorite spot there." I smiled back down.
"I'm sorry about your mom, by the way, I don't think I ever got to say that last year." She half-smiled.
"Don't worry about it; she's better off there than here." I returned.
We walked to her classroom and stopped. She hugged me and said "Don't be afraid of talking to someone Finnick,"
"I'm okay Andromeda, I've been okay for a while now." I tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear.
"I know, but I'm worried about you, Fin." She said last. I nodded and hugged her, resting my chin on her head before we broke apart, and she went into her class.
I sighed and walked across the hallways to mine.
"Welcome to Astronomy. This class will be your favorite of the semester." And I tuned out the world after.
"Finnick? Can we speak in the hallway?" The teacher said. I nodded and got out of my seat and followed them to the hall.
"Are you okay? I'm only asking because of your mother." I gulped and nodded, not speaking a single word knowing I was going to cry.
"Yeah- I'm fine-" I cut myself off. My throat closed up on itself and my face burned. I was not about to cry; I was not. But I was.
I tried to scream, but my head was underwater
