I'm sorry it took longer than usual to update but I wanted to publish a chapter I was happy with slater instead of a really shorty bad one sooner, I put a lot of different things in this chapter so I hope you like it.
i obviously don't sown anything.
(Sorry if she seems violent, I'm in a bad mood.)
I don't own!
"She just kissed me," he sounds so desperate, "what, and you just accidentally kissed back?" I'm amazed at how calm I feel, "no it's just, I really liked Johanna, a lot, LIKED! Before I met Annie she was pretty much my dream girl, and then she kissed me and I felt something, but it's not like with Annie, with Annie I know I love her, I would give my life for her," he's telling the truth, I can tell from his eyes, "listen Annie hates your guts right now and she has every right to, you kissed another girl while she was both your girlfriend, and carrying your child, she trusts no one as much as she trusted you, emphasis on TRUSTED!" He looks so hurt and helpless, I want to hug him but I run off to find Johanna.
I find her leaning next to Marvels locker and shove her to the ground, "YOU BITCH!" I yell, people are staring at me but I don't care, "What?" Johanna glares at me, she was never the calm one, "YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT!" Wow I never knew I could be so loud, "NO I REALLY DON'T!" She's getting mad now, she picks herself up from the floor and Marvel reaches us.
"Please Clove, do tell what I did," I take a deep breath, "You. Kissed. Finnick," all of the colour drains from Marvels face as he turns to face Johanna, "is it true?" I didn't know he could sound so small, Johanna just looks stunned, "Is. it. True?" He's like a bomb, I'm waiting for him to explode, I can see the tears behind his eyes, Johanna slowly shakes her head as Marvel runs away and gets lost in the crowd.
I turn on Johanna, I'm surprised to find tears in her eyes, "come with me," I tell her.
Line break
"Explain," I order once we get outside, we sit in the middle of the oval so we can see people coming, "it just happened," I take a deep breath, "things like this don't just happen," she rolls her eyes and I have to fight back a smile, she's so Johanna, "they do Clove, I was sad and Finnick came and comforted me, I thought Marvel was sick of me, he always replies to my texts quickly but this time he didn't, so Finnick told me if he didn't want me it was his loss etcetera etcetera, and he wiped the tears from my eyes and I just kissed him, It really didn't mean anything, I swear," her eyes are watering again and I know she really does feel bad, I start to wonder if Cato meant anything with Glimmer, but he lied about it so its not the same.
Line break
Johanna walks away but I sit and think about everything that's happened in the last week, it shouldn't be possible for this much to happen in such a small space of time, I start walking back and see Marvel sitting behind the gym (what is it with that spot?) with his head in his hands, I debate for a moment before i walk over and sit next to him.
"Are you Ok?" I mentally hit myself really hard, of course he's not ok! "Sorry, I mean, you really love her don't you?" I feel really bad for the guy, "it's ok, it's just a lot to take in, I mean I feel like I should hate her but I can't bring myself to stop loving her," I nod my head, "I understand, I had the same thing with Cato," he nods, "you know she didn't mean it," he looks confused.
(Tells Johanna's story)
He nods "thanks," I pat his back awkwardly and leave him to it.
Line break
I think about Annie as I walk home from school, she's been locked up in my house for a while now, she's with Scar though so I suppose it's good practice.
I open the door and find Annie with Scar on her lap, she's reading him a story, "hey," I say quietly, she looks up, "did you talk to Finnick?" I can see the hope in her eyes.
I tell her the whole story.
"He said that he would give his life for yours and you could see he meant it," she smiles sadly, "I love him but I need to be able to trust him fully if this is going to work," I breathe in, "listen, being a single mother is not an option for you, I've been there and I can tell you that it sucks, so you need a boyfriend, Finnick or not you need one, desperately."
Line break
I walk outside for lunch and immediately spot Marvel and Johanna, she's crying but she nods and smiles at him anyway, I sit down behind the gym and enjoy the peace, after a while Marvel sits next to me and we eat in comfortable silence for a while.
"So how are you going?" He surprises me by saying "I'm good, my mind seems clearer," he sees my surprise and chuckles, "I just realized maybe there could be someone else than Johanna, one that I can trust, maybe she was only meant to be a friend, maybe we imagined it."
I raise my eyebrows, "so you think you can just move on from Johanna?" He nods cheerfully, "so you have an other girl in mind already?" I'm extremely surprised at his behavior, "yep, I was talking to Johanna about it before," ok then, "so who is she?" I figure she must be special for him to forget Johanna so quickly, "she's pretty and smart," I shrug, "it you Clove, it's you,"
