Chapter 1
Annie kneeled by the gravestone of her late husband for the second time that day and prayed for Finnick again. She opened her eyes and said the same old motto, the last thing Finnick had ever said to her "I love you, and you're not alone… I'm closer than you think." She kissed the ring Finnick had proposed to her with and said goodbye to Finnick for the night, "See you tomorrow." She said to no one in particular and walked the long walk home, Katniss had offered her a hovercraft but Annie felt closer to Finnick walking. She opened the door of her apartment and held back the tears as her three year old son waddled over to her; he was the spitting image of his father, with the beautiful green eyes and soft blonde hair. "Heyyo mummy, me and Peeta make cakeys!" He squealed happily showing his mother a handful of beautifully iced trident-shaped cupcakes. How Peeta, Annie thought, Finnick would love them. "I'll let myself out then." Peeta smiled
"Thanks Peeta." Annie smiled. She thanked Peeta every day; he was great with Finn and without him, Finn would be a terribly unhappy child. "Bed time Finn." Annie whispered and Finn ran into his bedroom. Annie was too tired to look after Finn properly, she was too sad. She kissed the picture of Finnick on her bedside table and cried herself to sleep, same as every night.
