Chapter 1

FINNICK POV

I'm trying to think of something else, anything to take my mind off the reaping tomorrow. But I can't. My name has now been entered three time. I feel like with each year the odd are less in my favor. I stroll down the shore, listening to the waves crash against the rocks, the birds the swirl up in the air. I eventually make my way off the beach and head home. I walk throw the door, dad's sitting at the table fixing one of his nets.

"Finn, glad your home, do me a favor and head over to...umm, oh I forgot her name, one of your sister's friends." He says a bit frustrated with himself.

"Liz?" I ask

"No, Last name Cresta." he replies.

"Annie?"

"Yes, there we go, Annie." He confirms.

"Head over there and bring Coral home, dinners almost ready." he tells me.

"Will do Dad." I replied as I went back outside and mad my way to Annie Cresta's house.

Dad usually does this, but I don't mind. Dad's got a lot on his plate. Ever since mom passed two years ago things have been hard on us. She dies in child birth, neither of them made it. We were in a deep depression. Mom was the glue that held us together. Dad did what he had to, fished all day, sold what he caught the next day, took care of me and my sister, fixed us dinner, got us ready for school, he's literally super dad. I did what I could, I caught dinner for the family, took care of my sister when dad left of fishing trips days on end. We all had to move on.

I walk up the steps to Annie's house and knock on the door. Annie's mother answers.

"Oh hello Finnick, here for Coral?" she ask.

"Yes Ms, Cresta." I confirm.

"Why don't you come in, I'll go get them." she tells me as I step into the house.

"Thank you." I reply.

She walks down the hall. I hear her open a door. Giggles come from within the room.

"Coral your brothers here for you." Ms. Cresta informs her.

"Okay, I'll be there in a second." Coral replies.

"Alright then sweetheart." Ms. Cresta says.

She walk back to where I'm standing.

"She'll be out in a moment." She tells me.

"Thank you." I tell her as she walk into her kitchen.

I wait patiently for my sister to emerge. When she does Annie is with her, holding her hand. It makes me smile.

Annies two years younger then me, but also two years older then Coral. Out of all Corals friends I like Annie the most. She actually looks out for and take's care of Coral. Her other friends really annoy me. They never invite Coral over to their house. They always insist on coming to ours and when they do they're usually ignore Coral and try to catch my attention. It's kind of pathetic. But Annie's a sweet girl.

"Hey Finn." my sister greets me.

"Hey Cor, Hi Annie." I greet both of them.

"Hello Finnick." Annie replied.

"Okay well we got to go Coral, dinners almost ready." I tell her.

"Yeah yeah okay." She tells me as she reaches up to hug Annie.

"Good luck tomorrow Annie." Coral tells her.

"Thanks Coral, I'm going to need it." Annie replies.

Oh that's right, this is Annie's first reaping.

"Good luck Annie." I tell her.

"Good luck to you too Finnick." She tells me.

Coral and I walk home.

"Do you like Annie?" she ask me.

"Yeah she'd nice." I replied.

"No, I mean do you like her?" She tells me in a cutesy voice.

I laugh.

"No, not like that. She's nice." I tell her.

"Why? Are you trying to set us up or something?" I ask her.

"I just want her to be my sister, but that means you have to marry her." she tells me.

I chuckle.

"Well, I'm not marrying anyone just so you can have a sister." I replied.

"I know, I was just wondering." she tells me.

"Do you like Isles or Nora?" she asks me.

"God No." I replied. She laughs.

"They both like you." she tells me.

"I don't even like them as people." I tell her.

She shrugs her shoulders.

We make it back home just as dad's setting up the table. We serve ourselves our food. Grilled fish, seaweed bread, vegetables and water. We eat in a comfortable silence. Once dinner was over Coral and I washed the dishes. Dad was sitting in this chair finishing up his nets. Once Coral and I were finished I told her to get ready for bed. She went to her room to get ready. I walked over to dad, he had fallen asleep mid knot. I pull the net from his hand and put it way with the others. I shake him awake.

"Dad, you got to go to bed." I tell him as he wakes with a shock.

"I'm going I'm going," he says lifting from his chair and heading to his room.

"Night son." he tells me.

"Night dad." I replied.

He walks down the hall.

"Night Coral." he says as he passes her room.

"Night Daddy." she tells him.

I turn off the light in the kitchen. I walk to Corals room, she already in her bed. I walk in and kiss her good night.

"Night Cor." I say kissing her forhead.

"Good night Finn." She tells me.

I leave her room and head over to mine. I get ready for bed and try to find sleep, tomorrow was going to be a rough day.
