Disclaimer: I don't own the Hunger Games because if I did Jay would exist!

I sat alone in the cafeteria and stared at my food. I didn't feel like eating anything, I felt so bad for what I did to Thresh I didn't think that I could keep anything down. Finnick kept glancing over at me looking worried and I knew he could tell something was wrong. I knew I couldn't tell him so I got up and ran out of the room so I didn't have to see him looking at me any more.

'Jay!' Finnick ran up beside me and I stopped and turned to look at him.
'Hi Finnick I'm actually really busy right now so if you could be quick I would really appreciate it.'
'Tell me what's wrong.'
'Wrong? Nothing's wrong. Why would anything be wrong?' He pointed at my hands which were balled up in fists and I sighed.
'1...2... don't make me say 3.'
'I'm just having a rough time okay. Coin hates me, I asked her permission to go outside or to do something, anything and she rejected me for being too hostile and dangerous. I feel as though no one trusts me. Katniss also hates me; you know she tried to attack me before she left because she thought I was going to hurt you.'
'Hey, hey calm down.' He cupped me face in his hands and brushed the tears that had started falling down my cheeks away. 'They just don't know you like I do. The shy, quiet, nervous, little girl is still in there, she just got tough. You would never hurt anyone unless you had to.'
'I hurt Gale a lot and half the time he's just trying to help.'
'I understand.' He picked me up and carried me to my room as I sobbed into his shoulder.

Annie joined us later and was curled up on the bed with her head in my lap.
'You just need to show Coin that you can be trusted.'
'And how am I supposed to do that Finnick when she won't give me the chance.'
'I heard you tried to kill Plutarch.' Annie raised her head as she said it and looked at me, Finnick tried to stifle a laugh and I gave him the death stare.
'He's evil; he knew I was in there. It's in his eyes I can see it.'
'Life was so much easier when you didn't look people in the eye but instead hid behind things like rocks, people and that goat that one time. I think you have the power to see inside people's souls but you never knew until now.'

'Jay! Jay! Please talk to me! Let me in! JAY!' Gale stood outside knocking, I sighed not wanting to let him in, I'd avoided him all day whenever he tried to talk to me. Finally after an hour I rolled off my bed and swung the door open.
'Yes?'
'You've been avoiding me.' I sighed and let him walk past me into the room.
'Well what am I supposed to do Gale, I don't not what to say, I don't even know what to think any more. He died and then you come along an it's like he never existed.'
'It doesn't have to be like that.' He placed his arms on my shoulders and looked me straight in the eye. 'We can go back to being friends if you want.' I nodded and he pulled me in for a hug, I pulled away and looked him in the eyes before grabbing the front of his shirt and pressing his lips against mine. He pulled away looking shocked. 'But you said.'
'I know but what if I can't just be friends with you?'

Ok so JoshuaEvans123 is like my most common reviewer and has helped me when I was stuck on chapters and he has a new story out called Life Of The Party involving Finnick's son. He's a really good writer so if you could read and review it would be really great. :)
