Until our Time Comes is up for adoption. Nuff said.

This chapter revolves around Finnick and Annie, I was too lazy to update last week and I typed the more elaborate version of this down but it got deleted. (ARRRRGGGHHHH!)

Disclaimer: Me no own.

ENJOY!


Finnick's POV

"Annie?" I say.

"Yeah?" she answers.

"We've been friends for as long as I can remember..." I say.

"Yeah... continue..." she says.

"And we always get along... and umm..." Oh God... This is SO awkward!

"Mmm... Hmmm..." she says.

"And... umm..."

"Oh, for the love of Panem! What is this about?" she says, throwing her hands up.

"I was thinking... um... wouldyouliketogooutwithme?" I said hat last part really fast because I was scared of her reaction.

She didn't say or do anything. She stopped dead in her tracks, eyes staring straight in front of her. Straight on me.

I started to panic.

"I mean, if you don't want to, you don't have to! I don't want to ruin anything and... I'm a mess aren't I?"

"No. I find it cute,"she says, walking over to me. "Sure. I'd love to go out with you."

My eyes light up. "Really?"

"Cross my heart," she says, making an 'X' on her chest. "I've been waiting for you to ask me that..."

Annie's POV

Finnick Odair just asked me out. Oh my God! Finnick Odair just asked me out!

"Four o'clock? Saturday?" he asks.

"See ya then."

I skip to the class, feeling light headed. Unfortunately, I run into Johanna.

"Hey, Annie! What's with the um... skipping?" She asks.

"Nothing..." I mumble.

"What's that? I didn't hear you!" says Johanna jokingly.

"I said nothing!"

"Whoa! Whoa! What's got your panties in a twist?" she asks.

"Nothing... it's just... Can you keep a secret?" I say.

She puts her right hand up and says,"I solemnly swear that I wouldn't tell anyone about... well... whatever you're gonna say."

"Haha. Very funny," I say. "Anyways... Finnick just um..."

"Just what?"

"Just..."

"Spit it Cresta!"

"Finnick just asked me out!"

"WHAT?!" she shouts.

"Finnick just... Do I really have to say it again?"

"About time," I heard from behind me.

"Oh! Cato! Y-you heard that?" I stutter.

"Well, duh! I got a dare to stalk Jo in class. So...oh, whoops... I don't think I should have said that..." he says. "Well, catch ya later Annie. I'm gonna run away now."

"Get back here Ludwig! You'll see! You're so getting a taste of my mighty axe!" yells Johanna.

"Ha! In your dreams Mason!" he says before the teacher comes in. Oh yeah. History.

Peeta's POV

"What's up with the smiley face, Finn?" I ask Finnick as he enters the class.

"I um... kinda just asked Annie out," he answers. (A/N Well that was much easier wasn't it?)

"Good for you. All of us could see the googly eyes you both made at each other," I say.

"Shut it, Mellark," I growl.

"Just stating a fact," I say.

"Whatever," he says with a smirk. "Because everyone knows you have a crush on Katniss."

I shrug. "Everyone thinks we're together. So your argument is invalid."

"BURN!" says Gale from behind me.

"Are you always that smooth with words?" asks Finnick.

"Maybe I am, maybe I'm not," I answer. "How 'bout you? Are you always that lame at comebacks?" I ask teasingly.

"Haha. Very funny," he says with sarcasm dripping from his voice. "I know someone worse than me."

"Oh yeah? Who is that?" I ask curiously.

He looks around and whispers, "Gale."

My brows rise. "Really?"

"Yup," he says, popping the 'p'. "He is the master of lame comebacks."

"I would love to see him in action," I say.

"You can. Class starts in ten minutes. Hey Gale! C'mere would you?" he says.

"What?" says Gale.

"I was just telling Peeta that you're the king of lame comebacks," says Finnick.

"I am not!"

"Of course you are!"

"Well... you're... you're...you're the king of telling people that I'm the king of lame comebacks!" snaps Gale.

"Ooo-kaayyy..." I say.

"See? Told ya," says Finn.

"I see that..." I say before bursting of laughter. Soon, Finnick and Gale eventually join me, earning looks from everyone in the class.


I told you it was shorter than usual. This chapter was particularly hard to write because I didn't want to make it too short. I'm sorry again for not updating last week.

Until Our Time Comes has been adopted. It is now unavailable. I took two days to write this chapter. I'm sorry for the notice.

Review and PLEASE DON'T KICK MY ASS!
