Finnick and I have been sitting at the dining room table for atleast an hour now trying to think of things that seem worthy to accomplish.
It's about 5:45 am, and here I am drinking hot chocolate and eating sugar cubes.
About 15 minutes ago Finnick asked an Avox for a box of the sweet cubes. At first I thought it was disgusting to watch him eat straight up sugar, but he some how convinced me. The box was almost gone at this point.
"So far we have about 20 things we need to do before the games." Finnick Said while tapping the pen against the table.
He's been asking me questions Like have I ever had ice cream, have I ever done karaoke, and if I've ever tried champagne. Most the answers have been a big no.
"So when do we get started?" I asked. I had my head resting on the left hand. I really don't now how we are gonna get this all done before we get to the games.
"Well Brizzy-"
"What did you just call me?" I was very confused. I've never been called anything but Brizo.
"Brizzy. I gave you a nickname." He said with a wink.
"Finnikin."
"Ew, don't call me that." He said cringing.
"Goes both ways... Finnikin." I smirked.
"Fine, Brizzy."
Once the sun started peeking through the windows, Finnick and I decided to get ready for the day. He told me to put on the pair of boots and the winter coat in my closet. I've never seen snow before. He seemed really excited to show it to me.
"You ready Brizzy?" Finnick asked.
"As ready as I'll ever be." I'm kinda scared to be honest. District 4 is always warm.
Since the train can't continue safely on the tracks we opened one of the doors on the cars. Finnick practically jumped out the door. I on the other hand took one step and retreated.
"Come on Brizzy. It's fine, really."
"What if I sink?" I asked, it might sound dumb to him but I don't know how snow works.
"You won't sink." He laughed. "It's only a few inches deep."
I walked out the door and onto the white blanket of snow. It crunched under my boots.
I started giggling. "I love-" my sentence was interrupted when something cold hit me in the face. I yelped and covered my face with my forearms just as another one hit my stomach. I looked up to see Finnick laughing.
"What was that!" I asked. I honestly have no clue what was just happening.
"It's a snowball Brizo." He kept laughing at my reaction.
"A What?"
"A snowball, it's snow that you compact into a ball and then you throw it at people." He shrugged like it was so simple to understand.
"So like...this." Before he could react I had made a snowball and threw it, hitting his left cheek. I arubted in laughter as his mouth was wide open in surprise.
"Oh, your gonna regret that." He purred. Finnick began making lots of little snowballs and firing them at me.
"Finnick stop its cold!" I laughed.
After the 'snowball fight' as he called it. We made snow angels and a snow woman . Our snow woman had a carrot for a nose, rocks as eyes, and one of Mayellas sparkly wigs that Finnick stole.
Snow began to flutter around us again. Finnick and I laid on the ground looking up at the clouds that sprinkles the cold flakes.
"What are you doing Finnikin?" He had his mouth open and his tongue out.
"I'm catching snowflakes. Try it."
I opened my mouth and waited. After a few seconds I felt a cold prick on my tongue. I smiled wide at the feeling.
"I like the snow." I turned my head to look at him.
"Me too, Brizzy."
With that we went back inside to warm up. It had probably been an hour of snow fun. I was ready for a cup of cocoa.
Finnick and I both changed. I was wearing a pair of skinny jeans and a navy blue plain t-shirt. He was sporting straight dark jeans and a plain black top. We sat on the couch with our cocoa and a blanket.
"We accomplished some of the things on your list already today." He said after a few minutes.
"Yep, I saw snow for the first time, had a snowball fight, and made a snow Mayella." He laughed at the last part.
"Well it's almost 9:30, you hungry?"
"Always!" We walked into the kitchen and grabbed a plate. Shortly after everyone else came in.
I'm really excited for the next few chapters! Also thanks for all the wonderful reviews! Keep em' coming! What will "Brizzy" and "Finnikin" do next??
