AUTHORS NOTE: Hey everyone. Sorry this is late. I live with my grandparents and my grandpa will tell me I can get on the internet and then when I am all the way signed on (We have Dial up AOL) He will tell me to get back off then we go off arguing. I have lived with them for a while now and its so frustrating. Also the phone has been out for a while and that's what our internet runs off of so I couldn't post this earlier. But I hope you all enjoy this chapter. :D
That Special Someone Chapter 9 (KPOV)
That has got to be the best moment so far.
"I… love you Finnick." There is no doubt that this is what I am feeling. He beams down at me.
"I love you to Katniss." He tells me. My heart melts, and as crazy as it sounds I actually like it. I, Katniss Everdeen, the girl that blushes to no man, the girl who would never fall in love, is dating to most wonderful guy. I mean… I have to love him. There is no other way to describe the feeling. When I first met him, it's like I couldn't imagine my life without him. If I think about not meeting him it tugs at my heart in the most painful way. I was scared to death when I thought Finnick was going to die from that bite. I do love him.
"You want to get home?" He asks. I nod and give him one more kiss. We hop in the car and arrive home in no time at all. We decided that we can pair up and go to different rooms. Finnick and I go to the living room first when I spot the letters. My body starts to shake and I have to lean on Finnick to keep myself steady. I pick up all six and we head to my bedroom. Finnick and I make it to the bed before I drop to the bed in a fit of tremors. Finnick lays there, holding me until I calm down.
With my heart still raging inside my chest, I take the second letter. I open it up and take the paper out but with it, a single ribbon drops down to the floor. It was the ribbon I used for special days. My father had bought me it. I pick it up and start to cry. I miss my father so much it hurts. He had gotten this ribbon for me because I shot down my very first squirrel. Right through the eye. Now that I have Finnick, my heart is finally mending. I open up the paper to read as I motion Finnick over with my hand. I closed my eyes trying to steady myself for what I might see next. I reopen them and stare down at the tattered paper.
Katniss,
I see you spending all of your time trying to help your mother out of her depression. She never thought much of you anyway. What you never knew is that when your mother was pregnant with you, she wanted an abortion. Your father and her had a big fight over it. When you were born she wouldn't look at you let alone touch you. So your father was the only parent that actually loved you. Possibly the only person that will-would've ever love you. A little rat like you could never live up to your mothers expectations. Then when your mother was pregnant with Primrose your mother was happy. She never asked or tried to get an abortion. She loved that little child more than you and she had brought you into this world for four years. The baby was hardly formed by this time. But the point is that she loved your younger sister more even when she hadn't even been brought into this world. I wouldn't want you neither. But you have something that belongs to me. Your fathers life was one thing but now I want your mother. You might be seeing me soon.
-Unknown
This looks more fresh than the first letter. I feel my heart stretching painfully at the sight of those words. Is it true? Is this guy going to take my mothers life also? I turn to look at Finnick. He looks a shade paler than before and he starts to hyperventilate.
"Finnick! Finnick! What's wrong?!" I panic. I look around. I can't find the phone. Finnick doesn't weigh that much. Here goes nothing. I tuck Finnick up on my shoulder and run down the stair case. I run all the way through the driveway and hop into Finnick's truck. I gently set him down in the seat. Then like a lightning bolt, I run to the other side of the truck and hop in as well. Tears burn down my face as I panic and step on the gas. We arrive at the hospital and by then, Finnick is shaking. I am even more scared than before. If that is even possible. I get out of the truck and run the other side and pull Finnick up. I lug him over my shoulders and run into the hospital. As soon as I get through the doors I scream out.
"Help me! Help me! He needs help now!" I holler but no one comes. I take it upon myself to go through all of the hospital rooms, Finnick in tow. I finally make it to a empty room and I set Finnick down on the bed. I turn around to see a whole bunch of buttons. One says in big letters,
EMERGENCY
I immediately press it and red lights turn on. I basically fly to one of the machines. It reads,
Type in name for medical file.
I type in, Finnick Odair, and his file, along with others pop up. He is allergic to raisins and pineapples. Well we never ate any of those. I look at the other files. They show reports on abuse. It says that his father beat him everyday and his father murdered Finnick's mother. My heart breaks just a little more at reading this. It says he was sent to foster home to foster home until a family finally adopted him. More hot tears slide down my face. All of a sudden doctors pile in the room.
"Excuse me ma'am we need you out of this room." Some guy in white tells me over the roar of noise. I panic yet again for what must have been the umpteenth time for today.
"I am not leaving him! You can do whatever you need to do with me in here." I reply stubbornly. I cross my arms over my chest but I am unable to put up my strong façade. More tears spill over my cheeks as I watch them. The doctors are fluttering every where. Finally one comes up to me and explains what is happening.
"Miss? Well this boy here has had serious trauma and we are able to fix this if you want but the reason he is acting like this is because when he gets scared or afraid or even sees something that reminds him of the past he will freak out. All you need to do is comfort him while he is reliving those moments or try to get him to snap out of it. He really needs the help. Do you want us to fix the trauma?" The doctor asks me. Well if we fix it then he might not suffer as much. I reason with myself a little bit more.
"Will it hurt him even more?" I ask.
"No all we need to do is give him a shot and some pills. But he will really need a good friend like you around." The doctor tells me.
"I won't never leave his side. I love him. He's my boyfriend. I could never leave him." I tell the doctor. The others are giving him the shot and getting the pills.
"One more piece of good news." The doctor tells me.
"What is that?" I ask, really wanting to get back to Finnick.
"Finnick's last chemo session is this Wednesday." The doctor tells me. I forgot all about cancer. Well at least Finnick will be getting better. I still have another five rounds. My cancer must have been a little bit stronger.
"Okay thank you for telling me." A smile planted on my face for a split second. Then it vanishes as panic sets over once again. I run over to Finnick. The shaking has calmed down.
"Shhh Finnick. I am here. Don't worry. I wont let anyone hurt you ever again." I tell him. He opens his eyes and manages a weak smile.
"Two more days until I get better again." He tells me. I nod and grab his hand. I smile down at him.
"Yes you do Finnick. I am so excited for you. I will always be here for you Finnick." I tell him I bend over to give him a kiss on the cheek.
"How many treatments do you still have left?" Finnick answers me.
"Five." I say sadly.
"I'm just glad your okay. Hey you can even see your hair growing back!" I try to lighten the mood. I remove his hat and I didn't lie. He has bronze colored hair growing from the top of his head. I smile and look down into his eyes.
" Can't wait till you get better too Katniss." He tells me. I nod and give him another kiss. But he stills my head down to his mouth so only I can hear.
"Don't worry about the letter. I will protect you. I love you." He tells me. One final tear drops down my face but not out of fear or sadness. But one of happiness. Finnick is getting better! He will no longer be cursed with this horrible sickness.
"Okay Finnick. I trust you. And I love you more than the stars can count." I tell him hugging him. He smiles and nods.
"Same here." He tells me.
"Okay you to can go now. All you need to do is make sure he takes his pills." The doctors tell me. I nod and help Finnick up. Well walk back down the hallways of the hospital and out the door. The chilly night air hits us both like a ton of bricks. We huddle and run towards the truck. Once we get in the radio turns on automatically and the heat comes on with it. The music fills the car immediately. That's What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction comes on and I smile.
Your insecure
Don't know what for
Your turning heads when you walk through the do-o-or
Don't need make-up
To cover up
Being the way that you are is enough
Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but y-o-ou
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair got me over whelmed
The way you smile at the ground, it ain't hard to tell
You don't kno-o-ow
You don't know your beautiful
I look over to Finnick and see he is staring at me singing along with the words.I blush and look down to my lap. We haven't moved from our parking spot yet. Finnick takes his thumb and index finger and puts them on my chin, pulling it up so I look at him.
"I love you Katniss." He tells me.
"I love you too Finnick. I love you too." I answer back. His eyes seem to light up just a bit more at my words.
"Be there forever and always?" He asks. I nod tears filling my eyes to the brim, remembering all of those nasty words on the letter and all of the words on his files.
"I will never leave you Finnick." I tell him. But what neither of us knew, is that someone had been following and watching me. Their gun aimed and ready to fire.
UNKNOWN CHARACTER POV…. (I'll give you a hint… it's the one that wrote the letters.)
I watch both Finnick and Katniss leave the parking lot of the hospital. My gun ready and set. But I think I will wait just a little bit longer. So they both will hurt with this new plan I have formed. Katniss's mother had made a great mistake by rejecting me for Cato Harley's father.
She was always suppose to be with me. But Katniss's father, Richard Everdeen, was in the way. So I killed him. I was sending katniss letters. Six in all. Some were just painful memories and some were letters. I think I might just send out one more letter before I take Katniss' life.
"You better watch out Katniss. I'm going to get you sometime." I say to no one in particular. I unload the sniper and put it back into it's case. I walk back down the hill, hop into my well hidden van, then drive off.
"Have you killed her yet?" I hear my boss, Boggs, on the other end of the radio.
"Not yet. I have decided to let her get close to my son. Then when it is time to kill her, Finnick will suffer along with Katniss." I inform him.
"Now that Richard Everdeen is gone and if you kill Katniss, you just might get your old job back as Head Peace Keeper." Boggs tells me. I smile to myself. Just one more person to go through.
"You won't be disappointed." I assure him.
"Oh I know. It was interesting watching you shoot Everdeen." I hear Boggs chuckle on the other end. I too, chuckle to myself, remembering that night. I had wanted the little Everdeen kids but their stubborn father fought me. Then I had to run. The police were coming. I had been watching and following Everdeen, waiting for the right moment to strike. This is not only for my job, this is for me as well.
A/N: So by now you all should know who the mystery person is. You should also find that this was Finnick's father. Sad…. But I still want you guys to guess what will happen and who this mystery person is. And tell me if you want anything to happen in the meantime. :D I do not own the Hunger Games or One Direction and their songs L But I am a huge fan of them. I love all of them. You can ask me any question about them and I can answer it as well as any question for THG! :D But I have to say that if I had to pick just one, I couldn't pick between Harry Styles and Liam Payne. Third would be Niall Horan, fourth would be Louis Tomlinson, Fifth would be Zayn Malik. :D You can also review and tell me which one you like best. I would really like to show my friends how many fans each one has ;) They are not so big on 1D L But make sure you review! ;) Also I am terribly sorry. I have made two different stories on how Katniss's father has died. L I am sorry. I guess I was just caught up in my other story, Rain on Me. I am so sorry, guest reviewer, I never meant to do that. I hope you all forgive me for this little mistake I will try not to do it again…. I am so sorry. I feel terribly bad going trough yet again and seeing where I messed up. 0.o Please forgive me. Just forget about the whole part of the fire and the scars. That's was suppose to be for Rain On Me and I put that part in this story. I am so sorry. But please keep reading this story even though I made that huge mistake }:) I am really sorry.
