Chapter 14: Wanting
Finnick
I never do go to sleep so there is no use in saying I went to bed with her on my mind. She will always be on my mind. And there is nothing I can do about it because she came with me.
I roll over and look at the digital clock on my bed stand. It reads 5:30. I guess it's not to early to get up and do something, well mostly complain to myself about how I can't tell Annie how I feel. I am one sad puppy.
I get out of bed and dress in something decent I find in my drawer. I walk out of my room and onto the dining cart. Happily Volien isn't on the cart waiting for me. If I were him, I wouldn't want to see me either.
I get a cup of coffee hoping it will take the edge away from my hangover, it does. Partly. Good thing today is a riding day and all I have to do is nothing. I might even talk to Annie. Well she hasn't really talked since her appearance in district 12. That should be my goal is to get her to talk.
Then I curse under my breath when Volien walks onto the cart. I just don't like him, and now I even have reasons. He just gives me a glare. My best guess is he didn't drink anything because he is full and alert. I think about how Haymich handles this on a daily basis. And to a far much greater extent. I just roll my eyes at him and take a sip of my coffee.
Then Annie saunters onto the cart. She has her hand placed on her head. I can tell she has a headache. Who wouldn't after they drank like she did last night. I give her a sideways smile. She looks at me confused. She must not remember any of it from last night. Of course she wouldn't. That kiss was bliss and she can't remember any of it because she was drunk.
When she turns to come and take her seat at the table is when I see it. She has a large bruise on the side of her face about the size of my hand. I wonder how they covered that up last night? It is all different kinds of shades of red, blue, pink ,and blacks. That had to hurt.
I push a cup of coffee towards her direction. She takes a slow sip then sets it back down on the table. "These will make it better." I say handing her a handful of sugar cubes. She takes them and drops them into her cup. I put about four more into mine along with her.
"What's wrong with her. All she did was come home early because she was tired right?" Ask Volien. Why is he such an ass? He is saying all of this just so I have to say Annie got drunk. And I don't think she is planning on talking anytime soon.
" Wanna win? Ok so yeah she drank a bunch last night. She might have been a little tipsy. What are you trying to prove?" I tell him off. I have nothing to prove to him so I just said. Annie wouldn't have said anything anyways.
"Why were you so stupid! You know better then that! You need to represent you district and you did a banged up job of that last night!" Volien gets right in Annie's face and yells. All she does is shrink back into her chair and winces when he gets really loud.
Next is my move. I get up and punch Volien right in the jaw making is head jerk backwards. I have wanted to do that forever. I turn my head to look at Annie. She has a look of pure shock on her face. Her wide sea green eyes open and alert. But then she calms down as if she had just hit the man.
"What was that for!" Says Volien as he holds his bloody nose.
"Oh you know …..everything." I say and walk away. I gather my bearings and walk away. I hear someone behind me. It has to be Annie. I walk all the way into the lounging cart, which is three carts away from my previous. I just plop right down on the couch and don't say a word.
Annie sits down right next to me. "T-th-th….." She just stops trying to talk and hangs her head in defeat.
"Your welcome." I say. At this moment right now I just really want to tell her I love her and bring her in my arms. She nods her head and lays it on my shoulder. I could do it. Keep a secret from everyone. Kinda like a forbidden love. I bet you she doesn't even feel the same way about me.
"Is there someone you love….but you can't tell them?" I ask randomly. She looks up at me with some emotion I have never seen before in her eyes. She nods her head and tries to say yes but doesn't.
"Me to." I say. I see a tear run down her face. I just leave it though because it is a sign she is listening, which she is very good at.
"W-who?" She ask actually making a word. I look down at her and give a smile.
"Someone special." I reply. We spend the next couple hours jus tasking each other things about each other and the people who we love but the other doesn't know who it is. I love it. She is the easiest person to talk to.
"T-thanks again." She tells me. I shake my head no.
"No, Volien got what he needed." I say. She move her head just like mine.
"No for t-th-this." She says. I am content. I don't think my life could be any better at this moment.
"I love you." I let out.
