I walk towards the open vault and squeeze Finnicks hand. He squeezes back and we slowly walk out on to ground level. Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch, Prim, Mrs.Everdeen and Effie( I hope I spelt her name right). Peeta ran over to me as soon as I walked out of the vault. He only felt safe around me.

"Hey" Katniss says and I manage a smile. I've been in my room because I've been sick to my stomach. No one else is sick so its getting my worried.

"Well we all know why we are here today. To honor a lost friend. We would like to have a moment of silence and peace" Mrs.Everdeen says and I bow my head. I tried to stat quiet but this wasn't right. Johanna didn't want a quiet, regular,funeral. She would want something fun, energetic and obnoxious, like her.

"Wait" I say and everyone looks at me. "This isn't right. Finnick, you know her better then me. She wouldn't want a funeral were everyone is sad and crying. She would want one where everyone is strong and angry" I laugh a little at the end of that.

"She's right" Katniss adds in and Finnick nods.

"Then how about we all say something. About who much of a great person she was. And something we didn't know" Peeta says and I nod.

"Haymitch, you first" I say and he just shrugs.

"She was a strong girl. She wasn't afraid of anything. She was brave and secretly had a soft side for Arias" he tells us and I smile.

"She was honest. And funny" Prim adds in, her voice little.

"She didn't have to keep going. But she did" Finnick finnaly speaks.

"She didn't let anyone push her around" Katniss mentions.

"She was determined. And was on task" I say and everyone nods. Effie hands Finnick the container, which I guess had her ashes in it.

"Arias, will you help me" he mutters and I nod. I ttke off the lid and Finnick tilts it to the side. I help tilt the jar as the remains of Johanna was scattered on the ruins.

"Coin, you have to do something" Katniss says and I nod.

"She died. She didn't do anything" I state and Coin turns around.

"She was hi-jacked. And you may be too. We just don't know it. Its not like your important anyways. Finnick only wants you for your body" she spits and runs out of the room. Katniss runs after her but I stay frozen. How dare she?! She practicly murders my friend and then says that Finnick only uses me for my body. I mean he wouldn't do that. Right?

"Arias!" A familiar voice calls out. I turn around and see Finnick walking over to me. He was eyeing me and I started to feel like uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?" He asks and takes my hand.

"Nothing" I mutter and start to walk away. 

"Hey" he calls after me and runs up to me.

"Tell me" he states.

"Not here" I say and he nods. We walk down the hall and I see Peeta.

"Hi" I wave to him and he stops me.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing" I whisper and he grabs my bad wrist.

"Tell me" he says and adds pressure to it. I yelp and Finnick tries to pry him off. But he wouldn't budge.

"State what wrong now!" He yells and I hear a snap. I scream and he let's go. He runs off and Finnick picks me up.

"What are you two doing here again?" The nurse asks and Finnick puts me down on the table.

"Peeta broke her wrist again" he states and the nurse rolls her eyes. Okay, well, Finnick you need to leave the room" she bluntly states and he looks at me.

"I'll be okay" I say and he nods. He leaves and she turns to me.

"Well let's see how bad this is" she tells me and lifts my hand. I shriek and she sighs.

"That's bad. Why don't you just lay back" she says and I obey. She picks up a tool, one that is used to see passed the skin, that is suppose to go round my hand but she drops it on my stomach.

"Oh my gosh" she whispers and I look at her, scared.

"What?" I ask and she looks to me, her eyes full of joy.

"Your pregnant"
