I don't own The Hunger Games.

Finnick absentmindedly ran a hand through his hair as he studied the maps that were laid out on the table in front of him.

"We could go this way." Annie suggested, pointing to North Carolina and then to Virginia.

"We could, but it might be easier to go this way." Finnick pointed out Georgia and Tennessee.

"Well what way did we go last time?" Annie asked, taking a sip of her iced water.

"We went through Georgia to get to the edge of Florida and then up into Alabama and Tennessee." Finnick explained, mapping the way with his finger. Mapping out the way that they should go wasn't exactly easy, and they didn't have Haymitch's way with maps. He could close his eyes and point to a state, then map out the route to get there in under five minutes.

"Hmm." Annie tapped a finger to her chin thoughtfully.

"Maybe this wasn't such a good idea." Finnick sighed. "I mean, it's a lot of work and we all have lives now-"

"Hey." Annie touched her hand to Finnick's. "Don't say that. You want this for him. We all do."

"You're right." Finnick smiled at her and kissed her on the cheek.

"I always am." Annie smiled back.

"I think we should go this way." He traced the way from South Carolina through North Carolina, right up to Maine and New York. "We can hit all the states up there and then hit Michigan and make our way down towards Texas."

"We can end the trip in Washington. But Finnick…Hitting all the states is going to take at least two months. It took a year last time." Annie bit her lip worriedly.

"Well, we don't have to tell them that." Finnick said, brushing it off. What was an extra month and half going to do?

"Finn…"

"They'll be having so much fun that they'll be on board with it by then. Trust me, Annie." Finnick shot her a winning smile.

"Fine then. But for the record, I don't believe you."

…

"I've never hated anyone as much as I hate you!"

"Yeah, well, you're a cold hearted bitch!"

It was a sunny day, a great one to start their trip. Birds were chirping, children were playing. Katniss was making tea, Glimmer and Marvel were giggling at something on her laptop, Peeta was loading the fridge with baked goods and Gale was relaxing in the newly cleaned bedroom.

Cato and Clove were fighting. Again.

"I hope you get hit by a truck, Cato!" Clove screamed, throwing shoes at him.

"Those are my shoes!" Glimmer protested, but Clove silenced her with a glare.

"I hope you get hit with me!" Cato fired back, hitting the floor to avoid a flying white stiletto.

"Whoa, what's going on in here?!"

The arguing pair paused their battle to watch as Finnick and Annie climbed into RV.

"She started it." Cato mumbled as he got to his feet.

"No I didn't, asshole." Clove scoffed.

"Come on you two. Just be civil to each other, for Haymitch." Finnick said. Making them feel guilty was always the best way to get them to stop fighting. Even when they had been madly in love, they were always either making out or fighting.

"Fine. For Haymitch." Clove glared at Cato pointedly, who rolled his eyes and stormed off to the bedroom.

"What was that even about?" Annie asked, accepting a cup of tea from Katniss.

"I asked Clove if she wanted milk in her tea and Cato said that that would mild cannibalism." Katniss shrugged.

"On the bright side," Marvel piped up from the couch. "Peeta brought cakes!"

"Great. Anyway, who wants to drive?" Finnick asked, holding out the keys. Nobody volunteered.

"Um…Johanna and Haymitch were usually the ones to drive." Peeta said, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly. It hadn't exactly been hard to convince him to come with them once Katniss had said she was going.

"I'll do it." Clove snarled, grabbing the keys forcefully. She yanked the door to the front of the RV open and slammed it shut behind her.

"I'll go sit with her." Glimmer sighed, as Clove pulled out if the driveway at an already breakneck speed.

"You don't have to do that, Glim." Annie smiled at the girl warmly. "She'll only want to kill you too."

"No, I should go. Either she kills me, or she kills all of us when she crashes." Glimmer passed her laptop to Marvel and went to join Clove in the front.

"This…Isn't the best start." Finnick sighed. He sat down in the spot Glimmer had just vacated.

"It could have been worse." Annie said lightly as she sat in a beanbag chair.

"It also could have been better." Katniss said.

"Um, guys?" Glimmer opened the door a crack and stuck her head through. "We have no idea where we're going."

…

They stopped at a café just inside of North Carolina that looked like it hadn't seen any business in the last six months. A lone employee was sat at the cash register reading a book, and only two of the eight tables were set with knives and forks.

"Um…Maybe we should try somewhere else. Like a McDonalds." Cato said when they were all stood inside. The man at the cash register glanced up briefly, before looking back down to his book.

"Wimp." Clove jibed. Cato narrowed his eyes at her and walked up to the employee.

"What sort of food do you do here?" He asked.

"Sandwiches. Cakes. Coffee." The man shrugged.

"Well, I'm sold." Gale shrugged. He walked over to one of the tables and sat down with his back to the windows. "I'll take a black coffee and a chocolate muffin."

The others put in their orders and joined him at the table.

"Why did I agree to this?" Clove sighed. "I could be doing something actually productive."

"This is for-"

"Yes, Finnick. I get it. It's for Haymitch."

"Maybe if you stopped moaning you'd start to appreciate it." Cato shrugged before taking a bite of his ham and cheese sandwich.

"Fuck you." Clove snapped icily.

"Come on, guys. Please don't fight the whole time." Peeta said, fiddling with his water bottle.

"Tell him to-"

"Both of you! Just cut it out!" Glimmer snapped, surprising the others. "We all have stuff we could be doing, but we chose to be here. So just stop."

"I don't have to take this shit." Clove threw her hands up in the air and kicked her chair back from the table. "I'll be in the RV."

"For fucks sake." Finnick groaned, dropping his head into his hands.

"Sort it out, you two." Katniss sighed, playing with the icing of her cake with her fork.

"You can't reason with her." Cato protested. "It's like talking to a wall."

"I don't care!"

"Okay, we don't all need to fight. Please, let's just all calm down." Annie pleaded with them. They all agreed, but Finnick could already see his plans falling apart.
