Alright ENJOY CHAPTER NINE! It's a bit short, but it's good! I'll try to make the next one longer! Okay :)

Chapter Nine

Finnick took me by my arm and, sadly, called the others to follow him.

"Where the heck are you taking us?" Scarlett demanded.

"Just wait," Finnick said.

I was getting impatient. I didn't want to wait any more. I just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

"I think I should go," I said shyly.

"Oh no you don't. You've escaped me once and you're not doing it again,"

"Let her. It's not like any one wants her here anyway." Scarlett murmured.

"Scarlett! Shut up!" Linda snapped at here. Wait… was Linda… defending me?

Scarlett rolled her eyes and said "What! Just saying the truth, geez."

"Don't worry, just ignore her. She's all grumpy cause' she had to come on this tour. We all want you here." Linda said smiling. "Right guys?"

"I want her here," Finnick said.

That statement totally caught me off guard. He wanted me here? Why? People like him should be hanging out with the cool kids and pretty girls. I'm not cool or pretty, so why me?

My thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Scarlett's talking.

"Am I the only one who doesn't want…? 'Her' here?" she said, looking at me with a disgusted face.

Without even thinking, I started to talk.

"Look, I really don't want to be friends with you either. I'll be happy to leave and get away from you but you're friend want me here. So either shut up or I'll be glad to lead you to the door."

Silence. Silence is all I heard for what felt like an eternity.

Scarlett just glared at me. She didn't talk or move, and I'm pretty sure she wasn't breathing either. She just stood there, as stiff as a rock, staring at me.

Rover, thankfully, broke the silence.

"Um, ignoring that, where we going, Finn?" he asked.

"It's a surprise, but you'll all like it when we get there" he responded.

Finnick made us take a right turn to the luggage room in the train, and then go up a spiral metal staircase. It took forever, but when we got there, it was worth it.

Finnick took us to the roof top of the train and the view was spectacular. Since the train wasn't moving, and won't move for a while, we could just walk around without getting into trouble.

"So, I was thinking we could just hang out here and talk for a while." Finnick said.

"Sounds good to me," Rover said.

"Same here!" Linda said with joy

Finnick looked at Rob and he nodded. Then, at Scarlett, who just rolled eyes and shrugged. Then at me.

"I don't know…" I said, hesitant.

"Come on. Please?" he said.

"Why do you need me here?"

"I want to get to know you better. You seem… nice," he said, shyly.

I rolled my eyes.. I don't seem nice, and after what I said to Scarlett, I was expecting him to stop talking to me and pretend I wasn't even here.

"Fine," I murmured. I didn't want to be here but if he'd stop bugging me about it, then might as well just stay.

"Yay!" I could hear Linda shout. She's so… so… I really don't know. There really isn't a word to describe how she is.

"Alright, so let's sit," Rover said. He took a seat and we followed.

"So, what's up?" Rob asked.

Everyone just shrugged.

For a while, they just made some comments about the weather and the districts.

For some reason, I kept dozing off and I just couldn't keep my eyes off the sunset. I've never seen anything like it. I started to move closer to the edge of the train to get a closer look and no one noticed. Good.

It was a light yellow and warm orange. It was the right temperature, too; not too hot, not too cold. It was glistening in the sky and it was simply beautiful.

Apparently, I was wrong. Someone did notice.

"Like the view?" Finnick said, taking a seat next to me.

"Yeah, I've never seen anything like before. It's real pretty," I said. I turned my head to see if anyone else noticed I left. No one noticed.

"It is. Back in 4, you hardly ever see sunsets like these." Finnick said.

"Weird."

"What?" he asked.

"I was expecting 4 to have lots of, you know, pretty things…"

"I never said it didn't," he explains.

"Right…" I say.

"What about 12?"

"It's seriously nothing compared to this. There's only snow over there and that's only good for snow ball fights."

"I've never been in the snow. It looks really cool," Finnick said, seeming really interested in this topic.

"Not as cool as this," I said. "I mean just look at it. If this is pretty, I can only imagine the other Districts."

I turned to Finnick, who was just staring at me, as if he were really into everything I was saying.

I put my hand down on the train floor. Finnick soon followed.

And for a second, I felt his hand touch mine.
