Annie's POV

The salty waves smashed against the boat as me and my brother (Charlie) sped across the beautiful cove of district 4. I was 14 and Charlie was 17. We were as close as you can get and did our little boat trip every Sunday. Charlie and I haven't done out trip for 2 weeks because he's been away, away in the hunger games. Charlie was amazing. He won the 66th hunger games and got back today. I missed him loads. My little sister (Glenn, 7) had missed him so much too but the only thing she went on about when he got home was, "What was it like to meet Finnick Odair?!" Or "What was it like talking to him.. No breathing the same air as him?!" Glenn was obsessed. Finnick Odair was the victor or the 65th hunger games and it was his first year of mentoring and he got a win! I have to admit he is cute. But I'm not obsessed like my little sister. He has bronze, short, wavy hair and sparkling deep green eyes. I pretty much looked like him, but I have dark brown hair.

It all happened so fast though. One minute me and Charlie are laughing, the next a huge wave brushes over the boat, holding Charlie under the boat which has be turned upside down, I manage to get out from under the wreak but I can't float in water very well. I can swim but it's about 1 and 1/2 miles until land. I start to panick and I see Charlie's body float to the surface of the water but no life in his now dull sea blue eyes. I scream for help and begin to drown. Here's how i die, with my brother in the middle of a wide ocean. I start to feel the life drain out from every possible place and then I black out.

When I wake I'm confused. All I see is that I'm on a beach and being... Kissed? Then I realise. Finnick Odair is giving me CPR.

Finnick's POV

I'm sailing back from a long sail trying to get away from life. I have just got back from mentoring my first hunger games and have mentored a victor! But still coming back into the district is hard because (not being self centred) all the girls are obsessing about me. I'm only 15 and I was 14 when I won my hunger games. The youngest ever.

'Pretty big waves today' I think to myself. Then I see it, a boat upside down, what looks like a dead body and a girl screaming for help. Then she blacks out. I speed up my boat and get to the wreak. The boys dead. Nothing I can do. The girl is ok, just blacked out. I think it would be right to take the boys body back home so i lift him onto the boat and realise who it is... It's the tribute that I mentored and who just became a victor. So this must be his sister. The girl he kept going on about, how much he loved her. I must save her, I must help his only meaning in life, live. As I pick her out of the water, she starts to fit the description. The girl I imagined and kind of fell in love with.

When we get back on shore, I start to give her CPR and a family comes to me and offers me help. I tell them to go and get the 'Cresta' family and they run off. Suddenly the girl wakes with a jump and flings her arms around me. She repeats 'Thank you' so many times.

"I couldn't die, if I had of died, know one would have looked after my little sister Glenn because dad died and mum is still upset and can't do anything!" She starts hugging me even tighter, then looks over my shoulder and sees her brother.

"CHARLIE! NO!" She screams in the loudest voice I have ever heard. She lies on his chest for 5 minutes crying and saying no. Then down the beach comes running what I think is her little sister.

"Annie... Who is that?" She says in a fragile voice.

"Charlie... Charlie... He gone! No he can't have... NOO" Annie screams.

This is horrible. Watching a family break down. All I want to do i hug the girl I saved. The girl who is called, as I understand, Annie.

I go over to her and give her a hug and lie down. She lies her head on my chest and her tears drip onto my bear chest. She then falls asleep and her little sister runs home. After 10 minutes of her sleeping and me stroking her hair, I think I should take her home. I pick her up and carry her in my arms to her house where I have seen them walk from all the way to school.

Annies POV

Finnick carried me home. I remember waking up just as we were passing the town square but loving the warmth of his body that I didn't do anything. When he lies me on the sofa at home he tells my mother everything. He managed to carry me and my brother all the way home! Fear in his voice, he askes if my little sister got home but my mum is always so distant from earth, all she thinks about is my father. Then Glenn comes down stairs with a big home made card saying on the front 'Thank you'.

"Thank you," she says in her cute voice "For saving my sister and bringing my brother home".

"That's ok little one" he says, and gives her a hug.

Glenn gives of a giant scream and runs upstairs shouting "HE HUGGED ME! HE HUGGED ME!"

Finnick walks over to me and strokes my cheek and runs his fingers through my hair. Even though we only just met, I think I'm in love.

I think of this as my que to 'wake up'.
