You and Katniss sat in the training room. You had just finished sparing with each other. The teenage girl watched as you wiped your face with a white towel and put a water bottle to your lips. The water was cold and refreshing. Katniss had wanted to spar against you for a while, and today the both of you finally had time to do so. She was tough but in the end you won. Though, you were silently glad that you didn't have to go up against her in the hunger games.  

"No wonder Snow fears you. You're a fierce fighter." Katniss complements as she takes a drink from her water bottle. 

"Snow fears me because I have nothing left to lose." You tell the teen. She turns to give you a questioning stare. You like Katniss. She is easy to talk to and she seemed to have a good head on her shoulders. 

"Snow killed my family." You reveal. Katniss' mouth slowly opens a little. Her eyes go wide as she looks at you.

"Why?" She asks. It's been a long time since anyone ever wanted to take the time to get to know you. After your family died, you closed yourself off from the world. You are afraid that you would end up getting someone else killed. Instead you opt to just treat people coldly and keep your distance.

"I became quite popular during and after my time in the games. Many men and even some women desired me. Snow wanted to sell my body to the rich people in the capital. I told him to, "go to Hell" and the next day he had my family slaughtered. It's the same with Johanna, she refused his offer too. Snow knew there would be an uproar if we were to die. He couldn't touch us. However, the same couldn't have been said about our families." You had chose to look at the wall of the training room as you told the sad story to Katniss. She seemed speechless. "So, if you want Snow to truly fear you," You looked over at her. Her dark eyes locked onto your (E/C) orbs and you knew she was really paying attention to the advise that was about to be given to her. " harden your heart and love nobody. If you love no one then you have noting left to lose. You become a wild card. You become dangerous and untouchable. The price you have to pay to truly strike fear into Snows heart is to much." You mummer the last part as you stand ready to take your leave, but the words that Katniss spoke stopped you dead in your tracks.

"But you love Finnick don't you?"       

It was just 6 little words, but they terrified you. You've known Katniss for about a month. How could this child have picked up on something that you've been hiding from everyone for years. Yes, it was true. You loved Finnick Odair. You both came from district 4. He was your mentor when you were drawn for the hunger games. He was just a couple years older then you. When he was teaching you how to fight and survive the games, you developed a crush on him. But it was a year after the games that you realized you loved him. He helped you to get over your nightmares and to readjust to normal life. He was also there for you when your family died, no matter how many times you pushed him away.

"To love someone would mean that I have feelings, something that I haven't had in years." You say not looking back. You exit the training room and go back to your room to slow your racing heartbeat.

In your hurry you hadn't noticed that Finnick had heard the whole conversation that just took place. Finnick sat down next to Katniss who realized that the handsome man next to her had heard everything. He looked at your retreating form with a wanting smile.

"She loves you, you know. Despite what she said." Katniss said quietly to her new friend. 

"Yeah, I know." Finnick smiled.
