Annie POV

Finnick and I locked eyes. He gave his winning smirk, and like most girls, I furiously blushed. He was cleaner, his eye's still the same blue, but somehow… haunted. He has grown slightly taller, and he had a much more muscular build. I smiled slightly at him, but he didn't smile back. I stared at him. Screams filled the air, most of them girls. Fans. I rolled my eyes at their stupidity.

They moved to the village. The fancy new house. They were hosting a party there. And the Crestas were supposed to show up. We did.

Mother made me wear a green dress that stopped at the knee. She handed me a pair of black heels, my hair pulled back into a bun. And we walked. We walked there. No money to hire a transportation.

We knocked on the door, Finnick opened it. I smiled at him, this time he smiled back.

"You clean up well." I finally stated after everyone filed into the kitchen, only few people were still in the living room. Rosa Jepenings and her friend Esha Yolund. And a few other select people, a few other select people who will most definitely eavesdrop on our conversation. Most girls in my year and a year above, and two years above. There were a few that were Finnick's age. Most definitely all of them were trying to hook up with Finnick.

"I could say the same for you." Finnick says. I just nodd.

"How is this," I gesture around our surroundings, "…place going out?"

"Pretty good, bigger than I thought." He says.

"It is quite large." Rosa chips in. I close my eyes in annoyance. Finnick saw this and chuckled.

"It most definitely is." Finnick says.

"Since it's so big… possibly a tour would do." Rosa suggested. Screw Rosa.

"Later then." Finnick says. I breath in and out. Finnick doesn't notice my annoyance. Finnick did not accept to do the tour, nor did he decline to do so.

"When's dinner?" I ask as politely as I could muster.

"It should be…" Finnick started.

"Now! Dinner!" Finnick's mother, Mrs. Odair called. I laughed.

"Exactly." Finnick says, as I walked to the dinnin room.

The dinning room was quite pretty there was a glass chandelier, a long mahogany table with a vase of flowers in the middle. China plates, glasses, and metal untensils were there. Plates were plattered on with fried fish, squid, all kinds of food. It was like living in the Capitol. It was like bringing the Capitol here, a Capitol feast in traditional District 4, fish.

The meal was quite filling, the fish filled me up.

"Full?" Finnick prompted.

"Very." I agreed, thinking back to the meal.

"Let me show you something." Finnick says, taking my hand, I could feel all the girls behind me silently groaning. I floating feeling burst in my chest.

"Don't you dare follow." Finnick warned to the others, giving off his award winning smile. I was almost jealous that it was directed to me.

He guided me through winding paths, stopping here and there to show me where other people lived in the Victory Village. We came to the end and trampled through a lot of bushes, the twigs snapping and scraping under my feet, but the ground under Finnick was silent. I blushed at my clumsliness.

We came to a private beach.

There was a sign at the front, in straight, formal letters, not the ugly scrawl of a kid, was written, 'PRIVATE BEACH. TRESSPASSERS WILL PAY. FOR VICTORS ONLY'

I stared at the sign uncomfortably. Finnick noticed.

"It's okay, your with me, also, not much people come here anyways." He says smiling. I let me pull me to the beach. I sat down in my original position whenever I'm in front of the beach.

"It's lovely Finnick." I murmmer.

"Of course it is Annie! Why would I show this to you then?" Finnick questions.

"Well… I don't know, possibly to gloat in front of my face that you actually have acess to this place?" I muse

"Of course not!" Finnick protests.

"Why would I do that." Finnick says softly, kissing me on the cheek, then made soft, slow kisses to my mouth.

"Mmm…" I moan. Finnick smiles.
