After we arrived at my house, we showed the Odairs their rooms; Annie is staying in one of the guest room while Finn is staying with Trevor. We let them unpack first. We're planning on to go hunting and then go to the lake.

"Celeste please, please, please let Finn come too okay?" Sierra pleads with puppy eyes

"Fine" I agree shortly

Both Sierra and Trevor's gasp at me in disbelief clearly confused that I agreed so easily. Trevor who quickly recovers asks me, "And you're okay with it?"

"Yeah, sure"

Sierra's surprised expression turn in to a smirk "Warming up to him aren't you?"

I let her words sink in and I pout as I realize what she meant, "I am so not 'warming up to him' I only—"

"Warming up to whom?" A silky voice asks from right behind me, and I automatically jump. I quickly turn around to see the owner of the voice and there standing just a few inch from me is none other than Finnick Odair. How can he sneak up on me like that?

"Nothing. Do you or do you not want to go hunting with us?" I blandly ask as back away.

"Sure" he nods

I walk past him, Trevor soon enough follow me. We walk on the front, while Sierra and Finn walk on the back. We quickly arrived at the fence, and go through it.

"So… where's your new bow that you have been talking about all this time?" I walk to my marked tree and grab my bow and arrows.

"It's… here." He points at one large three next to mine. "I asked Troy to bring it here, and hide it next to your tree. Cool right?" He shows it to me. I can tell that it's not Capitol made, thankfully. It's made of wood but it looks really comfortable.

"Try it" He does what I say. He grabs one arrow and aims it on a rabbit head. Without hesitation he let the arrow go. I looked away. I hate the whole idea of dead; it is Ironic, because I used to like the whole idea of hunting.

"Sorry, I just got so excited. It's custom made for me."

"It's fine"

Trevor turns around to Finn who tilted his head as if he's trying to read my mind; I know he saw all the things that just happened. "So… do you know how to use a bow and arrow?"

He shook his head, and say "Nah. I never used one in my district. Besides, I'm not really in the mood for hunting anymore, is there any place I can sit or something?"

"Sure, Sierra can show you the lake, right?" Trevor turns his head to Sierra

"But, I want to see Celeste hunt!" She whined childishly

"NO! You just want to laugh at me. Beside you always scare away the animals away!" I yell back as childishly

"Fine. On the bright side, I don't mind to accompany him either, at all." She grins and takes him by the arm.

I take Trevor's hand and drag him away "Trevor let's go, and help me find my hunting nerves again."

"First… you have to let go of my hand. Second, I need to make my trap." He points out after 5 long minutes of dragging him.

After he makes his super complicated traps, we walk in silent as we scan the area. Trevor is better than Troy in making traps, but Troy is better in hunting. "See there a rabbit on your 11 o'clock!" He hiss

I jerk my head towards the place where he points out. And carefully, very carefully aim to its eye.

"Just take a deep breath, okay?" He whisper softly, and put his hand on my hand; loosening my grip.

"Okay" I repeat, as I look at my grip. My knuckles are white, and my hands are all sweaty.

"Relax," He chuckle softly, and my heart skip a beat

Why? I don't know, or, I just don't want to admit.

"Shoot" I do what he commands me. I exhale as I let the arrow slips and close my eyes until I can hear the sound of my arrow finding its victim.

I bury my face in his chest finding comfort. He wraps his strong arms around me, and rubs my back soothingly. "It's okay. I'll go pick it up if you don't want to." He chuckle and add "At least you did it. You get some of your nerves back." He let go of me and walk to the dead rabbit.

I can't help but notice how different he is than the last time he's here. He looks so much like Gale, and I wonder what mother thinks about him; does he reminds her of her childhood. But most of all, he become more mature now which is saying much for Trevor, who has a liking on making trouble.

We spend times searching for another prey. As he finds for an animal, I practice shooting with trees. I tried to ask him to play, but he refuse saying that it's not challenging to play with un-moving creature. After that we go to the lake, where Finn and Sierra is waiting.

"Hey, I want to go to check out my traps."

"Go ahead, I think I'll pass. I want to go to the lake, it's really hot." I wave at him.

I walk to the lake until I enter the hearing shot, and quickly hide on one of the bushes. "So what's up with the whole I'm-sorry-that-I-hit-an-animal? Isn't the goal of hunting?" The silky voice, Finn asks.

"Yeah, that's kind of a long story." She sighs "You see, when Celeste is little she and Katniss used to love hunting—"

"used?" he asks in confusion "But she still loves hunting"

"Let me finish okay" She says in an annoyed tone, Sierra is Sierra after all; she never liked to be cut. "Yeah, used. When she was little Katniss usually is the one who collect the dead animal. And as she got older, Katniss tell her to pick it herself, and she just did not expect to see what she saw. I know she sometime can be pretty naïve." Finn let a small laugh at this "And she stops hunting, until last year when Katniss gave her a new bow, and she is determined to use it. She killed one rabbit, and she cried for 3 freaking day, can you believe her? And after that she always sneaks up after school to the forest to hunt, for 'finding my nerve back' thing." She mimicked my voice, and laugh.

"So… why does she pretend to enjoy hunting again? I mean she hates the whole Idea of killing."

"Trevor." Sierra explains shortly as if it explains everything, which Finn nod in acknowledgement.

"Oh… They are close aren't they?"

"Very."

I don't like where the conversation is going so I start walking toward them. A plan formed on my head. Their back is facing me so they can't see me and fortunately, they are sitting on the edge of the lake. I start walking soundlessly, trying to get my steps light and even; thanks to bring a 'hunter' it's no great deal. I scream in a high-pitched tone to their ears and push them. They are both shocked and my pushing them isn't really helping as they splash their way in to the lake.

"OH MELLARK! You are so getting it." Sierra says as she starts to make her way towards me. I who can't stop laughing, doing a miserable job on standing up. At the last-minute I finally stop laughing, and back away from Sierra. I was so focused on Sierra that I didn't notice where Finn is, until I hit something. He wraps his arms around my waist and carries me to the water.

"No! No! No! Mom will kill me if I'm soaking wet!" I give him a puppy eyes.

"Well then My Lady, if you don't want to be wet, you shouldn't be the one who started it." He smiles; but this time it reaches his eyes, and he lets me go and I splash in to the cold water.

I came back to the surface for air only to get another splash on my face. First it was a red-head, then bronze; Finn and Sierra hit the water again. After many splashing, and swimming we stop playing. We sit there making a small circle' I wonder why Trevor hasn't came back but I let it pass and we talk for a while. Sierra then excuse herself to go home unless she wants her father to ground her, her family is really strict for almost everything.

After she left we both hit an awkward silent, looking at each other and then open our mouth as if to say something and then stop. And I realize all this time that Sierra is the one who always starts the conversation, both I and Finn just add every now and then.

"So what do you think of her? She's your biggest fan" I finally break the ice. When I can't see any red-head anymore, I turn my gaze to him. He's handsome; like his dad, or more like his dad clone. I only saw Finnick from the photo that mom kept under her clothes.

"She's okay. I guess?"

"Okay like what?"

"Well she's fun to hang out with. But… well she's okay" His gaze finally met mine

"But what?" I tilt my head

"Nothing. Sierra told me what you think of me before I came here to 12." He says quietly, and a pang of guilt hits me.

I look away and explain awkwardly, "Yeah… Sorry, I just you know? With your charming smile and tons of girls…"

He looks me in the eye and says in a very quiet yet deadly tone that scares me a little, "I am not what you think I am. I am not my…"

"Your… what?"

"Nothing. So you find my smile charming eh?" He changes the topic a little too quickly, and smiles at me seductively.

"No!" I bury my face in my hands

He starts to open his mouth to respond me when someone shouts "Hey! I miss all the fun." Trevor pouts.

"Fun?" I ask in disbelief

"Yeah fun. You're both are soaking wet. I miss all the fun you had." He childishly points out

"Oh, no we can start again. Trevor grab her hands!" Finn orders him. Before I can even stand up, two strong arms grab my leg and another pair grabs my hand. They swing me back and forth, at the fifth count they let go off me and I splash to the cold water again. They both soon follow me and jump.

Little that they know, a man and a woman sits quietly watching them.

"Finn really remind me of him" She says quietly, as her Seam grey eyes lock on the bronze haired with sea green-eyed boy.

"I know; he's more like a clone don't you think? But Annie raises him well didn't she?" by now both Seam grey eyes pair is locked on the boy.

"Yeah. I got the feeling that they're going to be a really good friend"

"So who do you think she'll end up with?" The man scan her eyes; searching for answers in her grey one.

"Gale! She just met Finn! How can you think of something like that?"

"Well, for example her mother ends up with another guy who she met in a crisis time, and leaves the man who she has known for a long time." He points out with a smile.

"Gale I thought we had—"

"Sorry." He laughs "But, I am happy on how things finally end. But if she is her mother's daughter I'll like to save my son from the pain."

"She is nothing like me. Same but different— you know?"

"Well, as far as I can see she is the exact copy of you, but with just a little touch of Peeta. Let's make a bet shall we?"

She doesn't answer. So Gale go back to watch the three teens. The boys are already out of the water, and the girl is still on the water. Both the boys held out their hands to offer her a help, and she takes none of them. And the scene makes him wonder, if she has to choose again whose hand she will accept? Which hand will she choose when she can no longer help herself?
