A/N: In Annie's POV

Not like the Movies

"Annie you're okay." I hear Finnick say. I left reality for a minute because of my terrible memories. But of course I'm alright, I'm always alright when I'm with Finnick.

I nod and swallow hard.

"I'm okay." I say.

"Yes you are." He says gently.

"I feel okay whenever I'm with you." I say and he smiles.

"Good, I'm glad. You have a similar effect on me."

I lean in and kiss him. I don't want him to stop.

I don't want him to stop.

I break the kiss.

"Annie?" He says worried.

"I love you." I say abruptly

He smiles.

"I love you too."

I lean in and kiss him again. I kiss him for a long time before he stops.

"Don't stop." I say.

"Are you sure Annie?"

I nod.

"I love you. I trust you."

"I love you too." He says and kisses me.


It wasn't like the movies or what I thought it would be. There weren't loud screams of pleasure. I couldn't hear the headboard against the wall. It was more slow and quiet. I think I found the whole ordeal more awkward than anything. However it was strangely nice at the same time.

The only thing that was how I imagined it was me leaning on Finnick's chest listening to his heartbeat slow while he was stroking my hair.

The perfect moment. That's what I always pictured. You leaning on the guys chest while he holds you.

In that 'perfect moment' a thought occurred to me. That I'm only person Finnick wanted to do this with.

The only one. That thought made the awkwardness go away and made everything better.


"Such a gentlemen." I say as Finnick walks me home. I knew if I didn't come back my mom and dad would've been worried. As much as I wanted to stay the night with Finnick I couldn't because it wouldn't be fair to them. Besides, if my dad knew I spent the night with Finnick I know that wouldn't end well.

"I do try Annie Cresta." He smiles.

"I know." I smile.

"Okay, here we are, casa de Annie." He smiles. His house is less than a hundred feet from mine. But like I said Finnick is a gentlemen and he wanted to make sure I made it home okay.

He leans in and kisses me for a minute. Then pulls back and starts to touch my hair. At first I think he is going to run his fingers through it but he is not. He is brushing it almost.

"What are you doing Finnick?" I ask confused.

"Trying to make you look… ermm more presentable. Your hair is pretty messy. I don't want-

"Stop."

He looks at me strangely.

"I like it." I smile and so does he.

"Okay." He says and moves his hand away from my hair and moves it to my cheek. "I love you Annie. So… so much."

I smile.

"So do I." I say and kiss him. I hug him and lean against his chest.

Finnick smooths my messy hair and whispers in my ear.

"You're so beautiful." He says.

I love when he says this.

"You're not terrible either." I smile and he kisses my forehead.

"I love you Annie Cresta."

"I love you too Finnick Odair. I always will." I say.

"Always and forever?" He teases.

"Always and forever." I say.

He smiles.

"I'll see you tomorrow." He says.

"Obviously or else you would be the guy they all say. Never going back to the same girl." I smile.

"Oh Annie." He says playfully. "Don't you worry about that. You're the only girl who I will always go back to, because you're Annie Cresta."

"I'm Annie Cresta." I smile and he nods.

He takes the hand he was holding and brings it to his lips.

"I love you." He says.

I hear the door open.

"I think that's my cue." I whisper and kiss Finnick.

"See you tomorrow." He says.

"Tomorrow." I repeat.

I kiss him quickly before my mom or dad can come out.

"I love you too." I say and walk inside smiling like an idiot
