prompt: safe and sound
The images fill her mind and she wants to forget, but try as hard as she can their always there, a clumsy word or two is enough to bring it rushing back. But the worst time of all is when she sleeps, her semi-conscious mind heightening her fear and distorting the images, so they were beyond what they had been before. She could see all the people she knew and cared for dying in the very worst ways, devised by the Capitol. The nightmares never seemed to end, but when she would finally wake, sweating and tears rushing down her face. Closing her eyes and covering her ears she will try to count to ten. Remember where she feels secure. And then his arms will be around her and suddenly she's safe and sound, the rest of the world doesn't matter because it's him and her. She clutches to him desperately because he'll stop her from sinking, and she concentrates on counting. The smell of the sea, waves gently turning, and the storm fades away. Thinking of the days when she used to fish with Finnick. Maybe they weren't too well off but that doesn't mean they weren't happy. Swaying slowly and stroking her hair, treating her as delicately as a new born baby. She could be broken at any moment. But with him close she was protected, the Capitol couldn't reach her here, where she's safe, in his caring touch. They couldn't destroy the love the two held for each other, and that was enough for Annie.
