"i have always betted on you."
as the time came for the quell, and brook found out finnick was trying to kill her, she didn't know whether to trust him again or not.
during the quell, peeta and johanna were captured by the capitol. president snow, o...
Clayton shook his head. "she's crazy. the rebellion is dangerous. i thought Katniss was suppose to lead it."
i shrugged. "yeah, well i kinda killed her."
Clayton bit his lip. "did you agree to do it?"
"yeah. i had to. i also have to stop all troubles in all Districts."
Clayton's mouth hung open. "meaning?"
"meaning the hunger. the uprisings."
"what the hell?! why can't she do that? she's the one that started the hunger, that started the uprisings. why is she asking you to stop them?" he yelled.
i closed my eyes and shook my head. "she said she was on my side. Snow is the one who started this. now i have to prove him that i can stop it."
Clayton stepped closer. "we have to prove him."
"Clayton, no. it's too-."
"what have they done to her?" he asked.
i licked my lips. "th-they they're torturing her."
"then i'm helping!" he snapped.
"okay. okay." i agreed.
"when do we start?"
i sighed. "tomorrow. plan is...wake up, meet Coin. she has a group we need to join. four people i think. two Avox's. i need to record me stopping everything. record a message for Snow."
Clayton shook his head. "there's no 'I' in this. from now on, it's 'we'."
i smiled and patted him on the back. "so what's for dinner?"
Kenny walked into the room and replied, "chicken. if that's okay."
i smiled. "perfectly fine."
—at dinner— "we were wanting the wedding to be tomorrow but Brook won't be here." Alta announced.
"yeah. i'm gonna need my sister at my wedding. but maybe a few days after we get her, if she's still..ya know, tortured." Clayton added.
i winced at the thought. it was months ago when she last actually loved me. it was months ago when everything was okay. no fights. no arguments. no lies. now all of that is gone. she's made it clear she doesn't love me anymore.

what if she did? what if she was just scared? no time to think. i needed sleep.
"thanks for dinner. it was great." i said with a smile.
"you're welcome, Finnick." Kenny nodded in return.
"i'm going home now. good night. and Clayton, i'll come get you in the morning?"
Clayton nodded. "yeah. what time?"
"uhh...how's eight?"
Clayton gave me a thumbs up as he finished his chvckem.
"where are you going, baby?" Alta asked.
Clayton grabbed her hand. "we're just going for a walk."
