Hii(: So I've been pretty busy with school… Fun.(x Geometry, Great Expectations, Band, blahh :P So updates might be less frequent.. Including my other two stories.. Anyways.. I don't own anything. I don't own characters, or the plot, blah blah blahh. Also, I got a review that said something about Peeta loving her to not being sure.. Well, I never said that. Peeta said he loved her, but wasn't IN love with her. There's a difference. Just to clarify.. Well I'm done blabbing now.. Get ready. Get set. READ!(x

"Um, hi.." I say still fairly dazed. Then I notice their faces. They both look like they're in some sort of pain, or like they're about to break down and fall on the floor. I don't want to think about what they said just yet, so I just yell, "Who wants dinner?" and hurry into the kitchen.

After tossing and turning all night, and getting about two hours of sleep, tops, I finally come to a decision. "But," I wonder. "Is it the right choice?" I slip out of bed and head down the hallway into the kitchen. I'm surprised to see Peeta sitting there, because he never wakes up before me. "Hey," I say sleepily. "What are you doing up so early?"

"Oh, I couldn't sleep." he replies.

"Me too. Well I need to ask Finnick something, so I'll be right back." I say, and start to walk towards the door.

"Um, Katniss?" he asks, and I can tell something is up.

"What?" I ask a little too sharply. I'm worried now.

"Finnick left earlier this morning. He said he need to leave. He left you this note." Peeta eyes me warily, as if I might have a breakdown or something.

I reach for the letter with shaking fingers, and a million questions racing through my brain. I carefully pry open the envelope, and start reading.

Dear Katniss,

Hello, my dear. Sorry I had to leave without saying goodbye. I know everything is so confusing, but I want to let you know I'm always here for you. And Katniss, I love you. I'll see you again soon.

Finnick

Usually Finnick would have some sort of stupid and silly remark, but I guess sending Annie to the Capitol again is hard on him. I missed the old Finnick. I was going to find him and fix it. Because I love Finnick Odair.

Why did he leave? I turn to Peeta. "Why did you let him leave?" I ask angrily.

"Katniss, I'm not sure, but he asked me not to wake you." he walked over to me and put his arms around me. "Katniss, I know you love him. Don't say you don't either. I could see the way you two acted around each other."

"But I can't leave you!" I cry.

"Yes you can Katniss. It might sting for awhile, but if he's the one that's right for you, you need to get on a train and go get him. I'll always be here for you, and I'll always love you, because you're also my best friend." I look up at him. I've hurt Peeta so many times, and yet he's still trying to make me happy. He continues, "I've already packed a bag for you because as soon as he left I knew this would happen. There's a train waiting to take you. Now go. And no excuses." and he all but shoves me out the door.

In a daze, I walk towards the Justice Building. When I reach it, I walk inside. My mother and Prim are both in there treating some children with fevers. Prim looks up to see me.

"Katniss! What are you doing here?" she asks, surprised. My mother looks up looking shocked as well.

"I don't have much time Prim. Finnick left this morning and I have to tell him something. I'll be back soon though, don't worry." She looks at me and I can tell she understands. I hug Prim and my mother, and walk out the back doors of the building to the train station. I've never had good memories with riding this train.. The times I've been on a train have either been to haul me off to slaughter or cart me around and show me off like a prize winning artifact. So naturally, I'm a little reluctant to get on. Soon the train is speeding away, but it will never go fast enough for me. We'll get there in about a day or so, but I can't sit still. I dump my bag, and pace up and down the train car until they bring food for me. Of course, they bring my favorite dish. The lamb stew that I told all of Panem I loved. I eat quickly and head to bed. I must be exhausted, because for once I didn't toss and turn all night. When I wake up the sky is bright blue and there are puffy clouds everywhere. When I crack my window I can smell saltwater, so we must be near District 4.

It's almost like every district has it's own little bubble. District 12 will have bright blue skies, but with the coal mines it seems darker there. I jump in the shower and randomly push buttons. The water switches temperatures randomly and I'm bombarded with scents and shampoos. Didn't I learn the first time? I finally fix it, and step out of the shower. I dry my hair, pull it back into my usual braid, and get dressed. I pack and walk down the hall to the dining cart. I pick up an orange and nibble at it. About halfway through my halfhearted picking, I feel the train slow down and my stomach drops. What if he's mad that I came to see him?

I step off the train into the bright sunlight. Then I realize a very important issue that I have overlooked. I've only been to District 4 once, and I have no idea where Victor's Village is, or where Finnick lives if I find it. Great.

I'm wandering around the streets when someone calls my name. "Katniss? Katniss Everdeen?"

I turn. "Yes?" the person calling my name is a woman. Maybe in her early 40s, with short brown hair, and those green eyes that seemed very common here, but they were darker, almost like a cloud of dirt kicked up in the water.

"Hi Katniss. Nice to see you again," she says. Again? Then I remember. This woman is the mayor of District 4, Odessa Fishel.

"Oh hello Odessa," I reply warmly. Odessa seemed like one of the mayors that would actually stand up for her people. I noticed that on the Victory Tour.

"So Katniss, what are you doing here? It's quite a shock really," she says, genuinely confused. "Well," I think. "I'm probably not here to go sightseeing, Peeta's not with me, and there's only one victor here that I know."

Instead I say, "Oh I need to speak to Finnick. It's quite urgent too. Do you think you could show me where he lives?"

"Oh um, yeah sure! Of course!" for some reason, she seems surprised. I guess she didn't expect the great Katniss Everdeen to need help.

I smirk and reply, "Great." she turns and motions for me to follow her. We set off at a brisk pace towards the center of town. I had to find Finnick soon, so I could set things straight.

**Don't kill me please! I'm trying to figure out what to write and with school and this stupid computer, I've been working on this for about 4 days… Yeah. So I'll get the next chapter up quickly I promise! Thanks! Review! :D
